Dr. Gerson (1881-1959), who developed the Gerson Therapy, explains how the treatment reactivates the body's healing mechanisms in chronic degenerative diseases. The book incorporates extensive explanation of the theory with scientific research and the exact practice of the therapy, as well as a presentation of fifty documented case histories. Extensive information on diet and nutrition is provided, as well as a full list of forbidden and permitted foods. Gerson's cancer therapy is based on cleaning the body of toxin's whilst nourishing it fresh organic juices. The basic assumption is that disease comes from an accumulation of inorganic toxic waste in weakened area's of the body, which cause an environment for disease to proliferate.
