A friend of ours was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer. She refused all treatment but went to the Gerson treatment. No drugs. She is, a year later, cancer free.

All via diet.

Apparently, the Amercian Cancer Society does not agree with your suggestion.

"Available scientific evidence does not support claims that Gerson therapy is effective in treating cancer, and the principles behind it are not widely accepted by the scientific and medical communities. It is not approved for use in the United States. Gerson therapy can be dangerous. Coffee enemas have been associated with serious infections, dehydration, constipation, colitis (inflammation of the colon), electrolyte imbalances, and even death."

Good for her. A survey of cancer doctors recently showed that a large proportion would decline treatment in many instances. One of the new trends in cancer research is finding ways to spur the body’s immune system to recognize and attack cancer — and that is what the Gerson diet aims to do.
