THE GERSON THERAPY CANCER DIET

The Gerson Therapy is a safe, natural treatment developed by Dr. Max Gerson in the 1920’s that uses organic foods, juicing, coffee enemas, detoxification and natural supplements to activate the body’s ability to heal itself. According to the Gerson Institute, “Over the past 60 years, thousands of people have used the Gerson Therapy to recover from so-called “incurable” diseases such as cancer, diabetes, heart disease and arthritis." Gerson Therapy involves 3 important steps that have to be performed simultaneously. The first step is detoxification by coffee enemas. The second step is the Gerson Diet that supplies the essential nutrients including enzymes from 13 glasses daily of fresh vegetable and fruit juice. The third step is the supplement of deficient nutrients, particularly potassium, iodine, and thyroid hormones. Additional supplements are used that include niacin, pancreatin, flaxseed oil, castor oil, coenzyme Q10, Wobe-Mugos enzyme products, laetrile, crude liver or vitamin B12 injection, and gastrointestinal enzyme products. The therapy aims to restore the diseased cells in the body back to normal. After the initial 6-12 week intensive treatment, the Gerson Therapy Program requires the cancer patient to adhere to a maintenance diet of low-salt, low-sugar, low-animal protein and high-potassium diet. All types of fresh and organic vegetables and fruits are encouraged. Tobacco, alcohol, canned, frozen, and other processed foods are discouraged. Salt and sugar are to be minimized or avoided completely - they should come from the natural foods, not from refined sources. The detoxification of the liver and the production of thyroid hormones to regulate the immune system are crucial to cancer recovery. Liver detoxification with coffee enema is a very important procedure in Gerson Therapy. It lowers the quantity of blood serum toxins, cleaning the poison out of the fluid nourishing normal cells. Coffee enemas cause dilation of bile ducts, facilitating excretion of dead cancer cells by the liver and dialysis of toxic products from blood across the colonic wall. The Gerson Therapy program requires dedication and discipline and hourly juicing - it simply will NOT WORK if you do not adhere to it completely, or if you cut corners and eat a few wrong foods here and there. It is ideally suited to the cancer survivor who is highly disciple to adhere to the strict regime.  

STEP 1: COFFEE ENEMAS

Coffee enemas have a very specific purpose in the treatment and reversal of cancer. They lower the quantity of blood serum toxins, cleaning the poisons out of fluids that nourish cells.

1.  Add 3 table-spoonful's of ground coffee beans to a quart (1 litre) of boiling water (either distilled or bottled water). Let the mixture boil for 3 minutes and allow it to simmer for another 15 minutes.

2.  Filter the mixture and add more water to the liquid portion to fill up to a total volume of 1 quart (1 litre). Cool the liquid to room temperature. Hang the enema bag or bucket about 18 inches above the body. Prepare yourself to instil the coffee solution into the rectum.

3.  Place some soft padding on the bathroom floor, cover it with plastic sheet and a towel, plop down a pillow and lie down on the padded floor on your right side, with legs pulled up in a relaxed position.

4.  Take time to let gravity force the liquid into rectum and bowel. Hold the liquid inside the body for about 15 minutes, and then release the liquid.


STEP 2: THE GERSON DIET

In general all the fruits and vegetables in Gerson diet should be organic and fresh. However, if it is not possible to obtain the organic produce, the supermarket fruits and vegetables should be thoroughly washed to clean pesticides / herbicides.

1.  All fruits and vegetables are acceptable except: berries, nuts, pineapple, avocados, and cucumber. Berries and pineapple may cause allergic reactions to the aromatic acids present. Nuts are too high in proteins. Avocados are too high in fats. Cucumbers in combination with the required juices are difficult to digest.

2.  Salads of raw fruits and vegetables should be consumed as much as possible. The most common salad ingredients include apples, carrots, watercress, green onions, celery, lettuce, cauliflower, broccoli, endive, chives, chicory, tomatoes, green peppers, radishes, beet, cabbage.
Apple cider vinegar, lemon juice, flaxseed oil may be used in salad dressing.

3.  Potatoes are recommended for lunch and dinner. Brown or wild rice may be used to replace potatoes once in a while. Sweet potatoes (yams) may be served once a week.

4.  Oatmeal is recommended for breakfast. Apple, papaya, or other fresh fruits may be added. Honey, pure maple syrup, or un-sulphured blackstrap molasses may be used as sweetener except for diabetic and hypoglycaemic patients. Dried fruits may also be added, but they should be un-sulphured and unsweetened. It is recommended they should be stewed.

5.  The Hippocrates Special Cancer Soup is recommended as a starter to every meal. A minimum of 8 ounces may be consumed in each meal. The soup is prepared from the following ingredients:

(a)  3 to 4 stalks of celery
(b)  Small amount of parsley
(c)  1 1/2 pounds of tomatoes
(d)  2 medium onions
(e)  2 small leaks or 2 additional medium onion
(f)   A few cloves of garlic
(g)  1 pound of potatoes

The above ingredients are to be covered with filtered or mountain spring water and cooked for 2 hours. The mixture can be processed to a thick creamy soup in food mill, allowed only fibres and peels to remain. It is recommended to prepare the soup and refrigerate it only for 2 days of consumption.

6.  Herbs and spices are not recommended during the healing process in the first few weeks of treatment because they tend to interfere with the healing response. Dr Gerson limited the use of such aromatics to small quantities of the mild ones such as allspice, anise, bay leaf, coriander, dill, fennel, mace, marjoram, rosemary, sage, saffron, tarragon, thyme, sorrel and summer savoury.

7.  In cooking vegetables, water should be added as little as possible because there are already enough natural water in the 13 glasses of juices.

8.  Salt-free and fat-free rye bread may be eaten only after consuming the full required meal. An example of a breakfast may include 8 ounces of orange juice, a bowl of cooked oatmeal with choice fruits, and toasted rye bread. An example of a lunch or dinner may include salad of mixed raw fruits and vegetables, a bowl of Hippocrates Special Cancer Soup, 8 ounces of apple-carrot juice, one baked potato, freshly cooked vegetables, raw or stewed fruits. The book "The Gerson Therapy" published in 2001 by Charlotte Gerson and Morton Walker includes many recipes for the Gerson meals.  
 
9.  Thirteen glasses daily of fresh fruit and vegetable juices are the most important component in Gerson Therapy because they supply the needed enzymes, vitamins and minerals to restore the diseased body to healthy condition. Eight ounces of fruit or vegetable juice are to be freshly prepared and consumed every hour during the day for 13 hours. About 4 to 6 glasses of apple-carrot juices, and 2 to 4 glasses of green leaf juices should be maintained daily, and the rest of the 13 glasses may be other fruit or vegetable juices.

Based on the "The Gerson Therapy Handbook", the companion workbook to "A Cancer Therapy, Results of Fifty Cases [both of which should be purchased], the vegetables used in green juice should be from the following list: Romaine lettuce, Swiss chard, Beet tops (young inner leaves), Watercress, Some red cabbage, Green pepper, Endive, Escarole.

A typical schedule of 13 (8-ounce) glasses of juice and 3 regular meals in Gerson diet is as follows:

8:00 AM  - Orange juice and BREAKFAST
9:00 AM  - A glass of Green juice
9:30 AM  - A glass of apple-carrot juice
10:00AM - A glass of apple-carrot juice
11:00AM - A glass of carrot juice
12:00PM - A glass of green juice
1:00 PM  - A glass of apple-carrot juice and LUNCH
2:00 PM  - A glass of green juice 
3:00 PM  - A glass of carrot juice
4:00 PM  - A glass of carrot juice 
5:00 PM  - A glasses of apple-carrot juice
6:00 PM  - A glass of green juice
7:00 PM  - A glass of apple-carrot juice and DINNER


PROHIBITED GERSON THERAPY FOODS AND SUBSTANCES

The following foods are to be completely avoided on the Gerson Therapy Program for cancer patients. Failure to comply 100% of the time will render the Gerson therapy ineffective.

1.  All manufactured or processed foods such as those that are bottled, canned, frozen, preserved, refined, salted, smoked, or sulphured (except as specifically mentioned as being allowed) are forbidden. 

2.  Dairy products of all types such as milk and milk products (including goat's milk) are forbidden. They include cheese, cream, ice cream, ice milk, butter, and buttermilk, except as specifically allowed under proteins. However, fresh, churned buttermilk without any additives may be taken after the sixth to twelfth week of healing, as well as unsalted, non-fat Quark. 

3.  Alcohol is prohibited because it limits the blood's ability to carry oxygen and places strain on the liver to detoxify and remove it from the body. 

4.  Pineapples and berries may cause an allergic reaction to the aromatic acids present.

5.  Avocados are too high in fats.

6.  Cucumbers in combination with the required juices to be taken daily are difficult to digest. 

7.  Spices such as black pepper or paprika are irritants. Basil, oregano, and others are to be avoided because of their high aromatic acid content. Cayenne pepper, jalapenos, and so on are also irritants and can stop the healing.

8.  Soybeans and soy products including tofu, tempeh, miso, tamari, soy sauces, Bragg's Liquid Aminos, textured vegetable protein, soy milk, and all other soy-based products are disallowed. For a variety of different reasons including their high fat content, high sodium content, toxic inhibition to nutrient absorption, and/or elevated protein content, use of soy in all its forms must be avoided.

9.  Dried beans and legumes should not be used.

10.  Sprouted Alfalfa and Other Bean or Seed Sprouts are high in L-canavanine, an immature amino acid that is responsible for immune system suppression. Also, patients with no prior history of chronic joint pain have developed the sudden onset of arthritic symptoms upon ingesting alfalfa sprouts. Healthy monkeys have developed lupus erythematosus from alfalfa sprouts in their diet.

11.  Oils and fats of all kinds are forbidden, with the exception of fresh, raw, organic flaxseed oil.

12.  Flour and refined white and brown sugars are forbidden.

13.  Beef, pork, poultry, eggs, fish, seafood, and all other meat or animal flesh products are prohibited. These animal foods are high in protein, fats, chemicals, preservatives, hormones, and salt, and are difficult to digest.

14.  Black tea, green tea, and other non-herbal or caffeine-containing teas are forbidden because of their undesirable aromatic acids and caffeine content. Dr Gerson cited aromatics as interfering with healing by producing allergic reactions.

15.  Candy, cakes, muffins, pastries, and other refined sweets are prohibited. Some breads and pastries may be baked using permitted ingredients, but must not be consumed on a regular basis.

16.  The drinking of water is not encouraged. Dr Gerson believed that a Gerson Therapy patient should not drink water, because it dilutes the stomach acid and doesn't allow maximum gastrointestinal tract capacity for nutrition from fresh foods and juices. The juices already provide adequate fluids.

17.  Mushrooms are not vegetables but fungi and contain complex proteins and are difficult to digest and offer little nutrition and should be avoided.

18.  Coffee and coffee substitutes by mouth, both with and without caffeine cause undesirable stimulation of the digestive system. However, when coffee is taken rectally, it offers an entirely advantageous effect on the liver where, aside from detoxification, it increases the production of glutathione S-transferase (a desirable enzyme).

19.  Nuts and seeds, including almonds, apricot kernels, sunflower seeds, flaxseeds, peanuts, cashews, and all other nuts and seeds, are prohibited because they are too high in protein, fat and salt when roasted.

20.  Hot peppers (jalapenos, etc) contain the same strong aromatics found in prohibited spices. Peppers tend to inhibit healing responses and should be avoided. Green, yellow, and sweet red peppers may be used without limitation.

21.  Mustard and carrot greens should be avoided.

22.  Baking powder and baking soda contain sodium and alum (aluminium), which are highly toxic. Aluminium-free and sodium-free baking powder such as Featherweight (potassium-based powder) may be used occasionally.

23.  Any product that contains fluoride such as fluoridated water, toothpaste, mouth gargle, hair dyes, beauty parlour permanents, cosmetics, under-arm deodorants, lipstick, and lotions (including moisturising lotions) must be totally avoided. Flaxseed oil may be applied to the skin as a general body moisturizer.


STEP 3: NUTRITIONAL SUPPLEMENTS

Gerson Therapy doesn't require too many nutritional supplements because all the essential nutrients are already present in the Gerson diet. Following are the few supplements used in the Gerson Therapy.

1.  Lugol Solution - The conventional USP concentration of a Lugol solution contains 5 grams of iodine and 10 grams of potassium iodide in 100 ml solution. The concentration of the Lugol solution used in Gerson Therapy is 5 grams of potassium iodide and 10 grams of iodine in 200 ml solution. Typical dosage using Gerson 's Lugol solution for cancer patients not pre-treated with chemotherapy is 3 drops added to orange or apple-carrot juice 6 times a day. This is reduced to one drop 6 times a day after 2 to 3 weeks. For cancer patients pre-treated with chemotherapy start with one drop 6 times a day. The dosage is reduced after 5 to 6 weeks to 3 to 4 drops a day. Lugol solution should not be added to green leaf juices.

2.  Potassium Compound Salts - Dr Gerson believed that the beginning of all degenerative diseases is the loss of potassium ions in the cells, and the invasion of sodium ions along with water into the cells. This brings on edema, loss of electrical potentials in the cells, improper enzyme formation, reduced cell oxidation, and other cell malfunctions. The building of almost all enzymes by the cells requires potassium as a catalyst. In contrast, sodium inhibits enzyme production. A solution of potassium compound salts is made from 33 grams each of potassium acetate, potassium monophosphate, and potassium gluconate, diluted in 32 ounces of distilled water. Typical dosage varies from 1 to 4 tea-spoonful's 10 times a day of the prepared solution (total 3.5 to 14 grams of potassium daily). They are added to orange, apple-carrot, or green leaf juices, but not to pure carrot juice. The primary benefit of potassium compound salts is to treat the tissue damage syndrome (TDS), found in all cancers.

3.  Acidol-Pepsin Capsule (betaine HCL and pepsin) - This is used for aiding digestion of foods and juices. The dosage is 2 capsules 3 times a day.

4.  Niacin (Vitamin B3) - Normal dosage for cancer patients is six 50-mg tablets of
niacin daily for 6 months. For advanced cancer cases, the dosage is increased to 50 mg of niacin every hour, 24 hours a day (a total of 1200 mg niacin daily). Gerson Therapy uses the nicotinic form of niacin, which may cause skin-flushing effect with temporary but harmless redness, heat, and itching. It should not be discontinued if this skin flush occurs because niacin provides vasodilation, which improves blood circulation, elevates skin temperature, increases oxygenation, promotes cellular nutrition, and produces an overall detoxification effect. (There is also a flush-free brand of niacin).  However, niacin should be discontinued during the menstruation or any type of bleeding.

5.  Pancreatin Enzyme Tablets - These tablets contain 3 groups of enzymes for the digestion and absorption of foods. The 3 groups are the lipases that digest fats, the amylases that digest starches, and the proteases that digest the proteins as well as the tumour masses. The recommended dosage is three 325-mg tablets 4 times a day. According to Dr Gerson, pancreatin should not be given to sarcoma patients.

6.  Flaxseed Oil - The normal dosage is 2 tablespoonfuls of organic cold-pressed flaxseed oil daily for the first month, then reduced to one tablespoonful daily afterwards. Flaxseed oil is best taken at lunch or dinner as part of the salad dressing, or on potatoes or vegetables. It should not be heated or cooked. It should be noted that the champion researcher of flaxseed oil,
Dr. Johanna Budwig of Germany recommended a combination of one part flaxseed oil and 4 parts cottage cheese for cancer patients, however, cottage cheese is a prohibited food in Gerson Therapy in the first 6 to 12 weeks of treatment.

7.  Bee Pollen and Royal Jelly - Bee pollen is to be taken when proteins are reintroduced into the patient's diet, starting from approximately 10th to 12th week of treatment. The normal dosage is 2 to 4 teaspoons a day of bee pollen. Royal jelly is an optional supplement. The normal dosage is 100 mg in capsule form taken one hour before breakfast. It should not be taken with hot food.

8.  Vitamin B12 injection and Crude Liver Extract - Vitamin B12 in Gerson Therapy is administered by intramuscular injection into the gluteus medius muscle, o.1 cc (100 mcg) once daily for 4 to 6 months or more. It is accompanied simultaneously (in the same injection syringe) by 3 cc of crude liver extract.

9.  Vitamin C - The Gerson Therapy dosage of vitamin C is 1.0 to 1.5 grams daily in the form of ascorbic acid, not in the form of calcium or sodium ascorbate.
Megadoses of Vitamin C are permitted, either intravenously or in tablet form of 30-50 grams daily.

10.  Charcoal Tablet - This is only used in the case of diarrhoea or problems in the gas absorption in the intestinal tract. The dosage depends on the extent of the symptoms.

11.  Amygdalin or Laetrile - This is an optional supplement because of the legality of its use in the United States. However, it is used in most of the cancer clinics in Tijuana with a normal dosage of 9 grams of laetrile together with mega-doses of vitamin C and B-complex intravenously daily for 3 to 6 weeks.


WHAT CANCERS RESPOND TO THE GERSON THERAPY?

It is important to know whether the Gerson Therapy is suited to treat your type of cancer. According to the Gerson Institute, acute leukemia, multiple myeloma, pancreatic cancer AFTER chemotherapy has been used, and brain cancers (with the exception of an early stage astrocytoma) do NOT respond well or at all to the Gerson approach. Cancers that DO respond consistently well include: melanoma, lymphoma, breast, ovarian, and Duke's C colorectal cancer.

THE GERSON THERAPY CANNOT BE USED WITH CHEMOTHERAPY

The Gerson Therapy is an intense detoxification program, where the liver is called upon to break down toxins in the body. Due to the amount of toxins released into the body during chemotherapy, an intense detox program such as the Gerson Therapy can quickly overload the liver, causing liver failure. It is recommended waiting 3 weeks after chemotherapy before implementing a modified version of the Gerson Therapy which is detailed in the book Healing the Gerson Way. Meanwhile, chemotherapy patients can begin an organic vegetarian diet and a limited amount of juices, however must NOT use castor oil or coffee enemas, as this can release an overload of chemotherapy drugs into the circulatory system, which can be very serious and even result in death according to the Gerson Institute. The Gerson Therapy can be implemented without restriction while undertaking radiation therapy.

GERSON THERAPY CANCER SURVIVAL STUDIES

1. 36 patients with Colon cancer that had metastasised to the liver where placed on the Gerson Diet against 36 control patients with similar diagnosis, not on the Gerson Diet. Mean survival with Gerson Diet: 28.6 months. Mean survival without Gerson Diet: 16.2 months. Duration of treatment unknown. [Study by Germany’s Lechner P, Kronberger J.  Erfahrungen mit dem einsatz der diat-therapie in der chirurgischen onkologie. Akt. Ernahr-Med 1990;15:72-8.] 

2. 153 patients with Melanoma cancer were treated with the Gerson Diet. All 14 early stage (I and II) patients were disease free at 17 years, compared to survival rates reported in the literature of 80% - 95%. Of the 35 stage III patients, the five-year survival rate was 71%, compared to survival rates reported in the literature of 27% to 42% (p=0.002). Of the 18 stage IV patients, the five-year survival was 39%, compared to 6% to 20% in the literature (p<0.001). Not included in this analysis were 53 patients who were lost to follow-up. [Study conducted by Hildenbrand G / L. Five year survival rates of melanoma patients treated by diet therapy after the manner of gerson: A retrospective review. Alternative Therapies 1995 Sep;Vol 1(4).

GERSON THERAPY HELPS CURE CHIEF OF SURGERY AT U.S. HOSPITAL*

[*Dr. Lorraine Day: "Diet alone is not enough to get you well from cancer. The three factors that actually cause cancer and all other diseases are malnutrition, dehydration and stress. Even new studies show forgiveness changes your cell structure. If you are harbouring anger and you have grudges you are holding against people, you cannot get well. You have to learn to forgive everyone who has ever wronged you. Because you see when you are angry or when you are stressed, the body pours out huge amounts of adrenaline from the adrenal glands and cortisol. When you are under a lot of stress, or when you're angry, the body pours out the hormones that suppress your immune system." Dr. Lorraine Day cured herself naturally using a 10 step plan, including changing her diet and healing her emotions that were causing stress. She has impressive credentials. She is an internationally acclaimed orthopedic trauma surgeon and author. She was for 15 years on the faculty of the University of California, San Francisco, School of Medicine as Associate Professor and Vice Chairman of the Department of Orthopedics. She was also Chief of Orthopedic Surgery at San Francisco General Hospital and is recognized world-wide as an AIDS expert. She has been invited to lecture extensively throughout the U.S. and the world; appeared on numerous radio and television shows, including 60 Minutes, Nightline, CNN and Oprah Winfrey.]

Lorraine Day M.D. was diagnosed with invasive breast cancer and had a lumpectomy of a small tumour. But the tumour soon recurred, became very aggressive and grew rapidly. Yet Dr. Day rejected standard therapies because of their destructive side effects and because those therapies often lead to death. She chose instead to rebuild her immune system using the natural, simple inexpensive therapies designed by God and available to everyone, so her body could heal itself. In her two videos, "You Can't Improve on God" and "Cancer Doesn't Scare Me Anymore", Dr. Day explains why you don't have to accept a death sentence from your doctor and how this plan has been used successfully by many patients with different types of life-threatening diseases to regain their health. Dr. Lorraine Day is now alive and healthy and says "you cannot destroy the immune system and get well at the same time." She discovered nutritional healing, the Gerson Therapy, and says: "CANCER DOESN'T SCARE ME ANYMORE!"


Dr. Lorraine Day had the courage to defy orthodox medicine and testify at the Cancer Control Society as follows: "I am Dr. Lorraine Day. Some of you know me from the book I wrote: AIDS What the Government Isn't Telling You. Several years ago, I actually spoke here about AIDS. I have been coming to the Cancer Control Society meetings regularly for three years and I have learned more about medicine and how to take care of yourself than I learned in 20 years as an orthodox trauma surgeon. I knew nothing about nutrition as a medical doctor. In the four years of medical school, you don't have one single hour of information on nutrition. I have talked about that and admitted that I, in the past, have told patients that their nutrition has really nothing to do with their health. I was ignorant, I was stupid as many orthodox medical doctors are. Fortunately, I found out what was really going on in the health field by coming to the Cancer Control Society, and I started speaking out about it, studying it and actually had a radio show called "Truth Serum" where I was interviewing many alternative doctors. In the middle of that, I found out that I had breast cancer. I had infiltrating ductal carcinoma and it was spreading through my breast. I went to my first doctor to have the lump taken out. At that time I did not know it was cancer.  He refused to take care of me unless I had pre-operative chemotherapy. Even though I told him that I was a physician, and that I would sign any papers releasing him from any legal liability - but that I didn't want chemotherapy. I just wanted the lump taken out and diagnosed. He said, No. His reputation was at stake. So, I walked out of his office realizing that the law considers it acceptable for a physician to abandon a patient if the patient refuses the doctor's prescription. 

So I went to a former resident colleague, who is a breast cancer surgeon. He took the lump out but he couldn't get all the cancer. He said, 'You have to have your breast removed.' I refused. Then he said, 'If you don't have your breast removed, you must have radiation therapy.' Once again, I declined. Then he said, 'You must have chemotherapy or some other kind of treatment to destroy these cancer cells.' I told him, 'No. I brought you a whole stack of books, if you really want to learn about cancer. Read these books. I won't have any of the orthodox treatments just take the lump out.' He said that he could not get all the cancer. I said, 'Fine. Everybody gets cancer all the time. My body can take care of that!' I immediately went home and called up Marilyn Barnes, whom you just heard earlier. (Marilyn Barnes had just previously testified to her total recovery, now over 14 years, from stage 4 melanoma as well as carcinoma in situ - cervical cancer on the Gerson Therapy.)  [Marilyn] came to my house and set me up. She taught a woman I hired how to do the Gerson Therapy. The Gerson Therapy was going to be the basis of my treatment. I started the juices, the enemas, the whole business. In fact, I looked at cancer as a great adventure. Unfortunately, I didn't have the time to take all the different alternatives, but I tried as many as I could. But the Gerson Diet is the basis of all my treatment. I am fine. I am healthy. I don't have any evidence of cancer. It has only been close to a year, but I have absolute confidence that I'll be well and healthy for many, many years to come."

Important note: As Dr. Lorraine Day reveals in her video above, she used the Gerson Therapy for 8-9 months on its own (without addressing the root psycho-emotional cause of the illness) and the cancer returned even more aggressively. She then incorporated 9 additional natural steps to healing, including healing the root psycho-emotional cause of her cancer, and within 10 months her cancer was gone.

12 Step Cancer Survivor Program

Step 1: Healing the root psycho-emotional cause of cancer

As revealed in the 6 phases of cancer, it is suppressed negative emotions (principally anger, hate, resentment and grief) which cause and continue to fuel cancer at the cellular level. Finding a way to remove these toxic emotions is critical to long term cancer recovery. The 93-page evidence-based thesis, "Psycho-Oncology: The 6 Phases of Cancer", reveals exactly how cancer develops in the body due to the suppression of toxic negative emotions. It is recommended you undertake sessions with an experienced healer of emotions (such as an EFT specialist) who can work with you to permanently remove these toxic emotions. Continuing a daily self-healing program to express and release cancer-causing emotions is also strongly advised and the Cancer Healing Guide is designed for this purpose. The Vipassana meditation technique is also beneficial for releasing toxic emotions. You are also encouraged to explore the link between anger, unforgiveness and cancer and unresolved complicated grief and cancer. The book, "Healing Dis-ease in the Mind of Christ", will help you uncover the spiritual cause of why dis-ease is present. We are aware of illnesses having spontaneously healed during the reading of this book.

Step 2: Systems change (Removing stressful conditions)

As revealed by world-renowned cancer researcher Lothar Hirneise, 100% of all late stage 'miracle' cancer survivors of the hundreds he interviewed had all made dramatic system changes in their life before getting well, and had typically left a highly stressful job or relationship or highly stressful living condition. This is because those diagnosed with cancer have significantly elevated stress hormone cortisol levels, which deplete all-important adrenaline reserves (as outlined in phase 2 of cancer), breaking the cell's Kreb's Citric Acid Cycle, causing cell mutation and cancer. By removing anything in your life that is causing significant stress, this will help to normalize cortisol and adrenaline levels, and thus halt the condition known as cancer.

Step 3: Active relaxing to lower stress cortisol levels

Over many years the typical cancer personality has trained their body to remain rigid and tense in response to life stressors. And when the body is not relaxed the mind will not relax sufficiently enough to enter the deep-sleep-cycle to produce melatonin, which is the primary hormone responsible for inhibiting cancer cell growth. It is this "body stress" which continues to deplete all-important adrenaline reserves in phase 2 of cancer. You should ideally spend 2 hours each day in active relaxation mode to lower stress hormone cortisol levels, which in turn will help restore adrenaline reserves and enable you to enter the deep-sleep-cycle to produce melatonin. Here are some ways to actively relax: sitting amongst nature, walking on the beach, swimming, tai chi, aromatherapy massage, watching funny movies, join a laughter therapy group, holistic pulsing, meditation, deep breathing exercises, lavender oil therapy, and listening to a guided relaxation recording.

Step 4: Using meditation to increase melatonin levels

As revealed in phase 1 of cancer, melatonin is the primary hormone responsible for inhibiting cancer cell growth. It does this by producing interleukin 2 (IL-2) which governs the production of (cancer killing) immune system T cells, B cells, natural killer cells, macrophages and neutrophils. Melatonin is produced in the pineal gland of the brain between the hours of 1am and 3am in the morning during uninterrupted deep sleep. The cancer personality who suppresses for long periods toxic emotions (of anger, hate, resentment, and/or grief) is generally unable to enter this critical deep sleep cycle and therefore becomes depleted of melatonin over time -- one day at a time. Removing the toxic emotions that disrupt deep sleep and lowering stress hormone cortisol levels will naturally correct the problem, however studies have demonstrated meditation can also be used to produce melatonin by stimulating the pineal gland. Consider meditating for 30 minutes per day as part of your 2 hours of daily relaxation.

Step 5: Supporting / boosting the immune system

There are a number of conditions that suppress or weaken the immune system: including high stress hormone cortisol levels, depleted melatonin and dopamine levels, parasites, pathogen microbes (viruses, bacteria, fungus), as well as chemotherapy and radiation. When the immune system is suppressed or weakened, the "cancer fungus" in phase 3 thrives. We recommend you incorporate at least one protocol to support and boost your immune system. High Dose Vitamin C Therapy can be used for this purpose and should wherever possible be used PRIOR to chemotherapy and radiation. Consider also: Fever Therapy, DMG, Lemon Juice Therapy, and Avemar. Note: If you are undertaking chemotherapy or radiation, consider Graviola capsules to prevent side-effects such as hair loss, nausea, and general malaise and energy loss. This natural product also prevents cell-resistance to chemotherapy.

Step 6: Removing the cancer fungus

As revealed by the Holy Spirit of God in phase 3 of cancer, what we know as cancer is in fact seven different types of fungus. When the cancer personality experiences prolonged chronic stress, somatids (tiny microorganisms necessary for life) that live in our body pleomorphise [or change] into yeast-like-fungus to ferment rising glucose and lactic acid in cells. In a healthy person, somatids are limited to 3 stages in their life cycle - somatid, spore, double spore. However, in a highly acidic (low pH) lactic acid environment, somatids pleomorphise into a further 13 stages. These stages include viral-bacterial-yeast-like-fungus forms that: a) migrate to the cell nucleus releasing "mycotoxins" causing cell DNA damage and the mutation of normal cells into cancer cells, and b) ferments the glucose in cancer cells, providing a natural growth factor for cancer and tumor cells to metastasize in the body. For this reason it is recommended you include at least one of the following protocols to remove and keep at bay the cancer-fungus in your body: Apple Cider Vinegar, Garlic, Baking Soda, Essiac Tea, Clarkia, and Hyperthermia.

Step 7: Detoxing the liver and colon of toxins

Those with cancer are typically overloaded with toxins in the key immune system organs of the body: the liver and colon. Toxins include "mycotoxins" or acidic waste products caused by: 1) the cancer-fungus, 2) a poor diet, 3) chemicals, alcohol, tobacco, 4) antibiotics, 5) chemotherapy agents, 6) fermentation of stress hormones, 7) poor exercise regime causing a build-up of lactic acid, and 8) dead microbes, parasites and cancer cells. These toxins build up primarily in the liver -- the master immune system organ. When the liver is overloaded with these toxins, your immune system is weakened and you feel sicker, and cancer and viral-bacterial-yeast-like-fungus thrives. Thus it is very important to have a plan to detox the liver (the master immune system organ), the colon (the intestinal immune system), as well as the gall bladder and kidneys -- especially if you are undertaking a treatment to kill cancer cells or the cancer fungus. If you don't, your liver simply cannot remove all the dead microbes and cancer cells, which remain overloaded in the liver. It is strongly recommended you include a daily treatment plan for detoxing the liver and colon. See Liver-Colon Cleanse for further details. Ozonated Water should be considered also, for it is a superb body detoxifier, but should NOT be used by those with lung cancer or lung conditions.

Step 8: Restoring the Krebs' Cycle with niacin & vitamin C

Cancer can only exist when the Krebs' Citric Acid Cycle of a person's body cells is broken. And this is due to adrenaline depletion (in phase 2), niacin deficiency (in phase 4) and vitamin C depletion (in phase 5), all of which are caused by prolonged chronic stress. Dr Abram Hoffer, the department head of psychiatry at a major hospital in Canada, started using niacin and high doses of ascorbic acid (vitamin C) to treat psychiatric patients and found (by accident) that it also effected a cure in some of his patients with cancer. He subsequently found of 132 patients he treated in his own private practice with advanced stage cancer, 101 patients who followed his program (below) lived on average 16 times longer than the 31 patients who did not or could not follow his program. Dr Abram Hoffer and Linus Pauling presented the following study findings: "Mean survival time for the 31 patients who did not follow the regimen is 5.7 months. Of the others, who did follow the regimen, 20% were poor responders, with mean survival time 10 months, and 80% were good responders, with mean survival time 122 months for 32 patients with cancer of the breast, ovary, cervix, and uterus and 72 months for 47 patients with other kinds of cancer." [Click here to read the full Abram Hoffer/Linus Pauling study and patient survival times.]

Dr Abram Hoffer recommended the following regime to his patients: "The first thing I try to do is to cut their fat way down. So, I put them all on a dairy free program. I reduce, but I don't eliminate, meat and fish, and I ask them to increase their vegetables, especially raw, as much as they can. I think it's a good, reasonable diet, which most people can follow without too much difficulty. Having spent some time with them going over what they ought to eat, I begin to talk about the nutrients. The first one, of course, is vitamin C. The dose is variable. I find that most patients can take 12 grams per day without much difficulty, that's the crystalline vitamin C sodium ascorbate or calcium ascorbate. They take one teaspoon three times per day. If they do not develop diarrhea, I ask them to increase it until this occurs and then to cut back below that level. I think in many cases it would be desirable to use intravenous vitamin C. I also add vitamin B-3, either niacin or niacinamide. I prescribe from 500 mg to 1500 mg per day. I also add a B (vitamin) complex preparation 50 or 100. I think vitamin E is an extremely important anti-oxidant and I use that as well, 800 to 1200 I.U. They also get 25,000 to 75,000 units of beta carotene. I s
ometimes use vitamin A. (One cup of raw carrot juice contains 36,600 units of beta carotene, which converts to vitamin A). I like to use folic acid for lung cancer, and for cancer of the uterus. I use selenium, 200 mcg, three times per day. I use some zinc, especially for prostatic cancers and I do use calcium-magnesium." [Click here to read Dr Abram Hoffer's complete Niacin and Vitamin C Protocol]

[Note: Sourcing the correct ascorbic acid is important. NutriBiotic Ascorbic Acid 100% Pure Vitamin C 5lb from www.iHerb.com appear to offer the best value bulk pharmaceutical grade crystalline ascorbic acid.]

Step 9: Re-alkalizing the body's natural pH balance

As discovered by Otto Warburg, cancer cells only survive in a low pH highly acidic environment, and this is why those with cancer typically have a low pH of between 4.0 and 6.5pH. This highly acidic environment occurs when the Krebs' Citric Acid Cycle of the cell is broken due prolonged chronic stress depleting all-important adrenaline reserves. As the cell can no longer produce ATP energy via the Krebs' Citric Acid Cycle, the cell instead ferments glucose [to obtain smaller amounts of ATP energy] via the process known as Glycolysis, causing lactic acid levels to rise sharply within the cell. This lactic acid problem is further compounded when the somatid in phase 3 of cancer pleomorphises into the cancer-fungus to ferment rising glucose and lactic acid, itself releasing acidic waste products called "mycotoxins". As cancer cells find it difficult to survive in a high pH alkaline environment of 7.5 or greater, it is therefore essential to: 1) Remove the lactic-acid forming psycho-emotional stress (i.e. toxic negative emotions), 2) introduce alkaline-based foods, and 3) include dextrorotatory lactic acid, which is administered in homeopathic form as prescribed by Dr Waltraut Fryda in phase 2 of cancer.

Step 10: Reversing the subconscious desire to "exit life"

As revealed by the Holy Spirit of God in phase 6 of cancer, cancer manifests as a result of a subconscious wanting to "exit life", caused by the individual feeling overwhelmed by the pain of life and no longer having a strong desire or will to live. This desire to exit life -- experienced not so much consciously, but at the subconscious "feeling level" of the mind -- sends subliminal messages to the immune system to shut down and stop working, enabling cancer cells and the cancer-fungus to thrive. God reveals it is important to examine this subconscious desire to exit life and to see whether 2-4 years prior to diagnosis you felt this way, and to make the decision to re-activate the immune system, by generating an energy of wanting to live that is greater than the energy to exit life. The Cancer Healing Guide will help you examine your will to live in greater depth, and of course, removing the toxic negative emotions (emotional pain) that caused the subconscious desire to exit life is a critical key component.

Step 11: Connecting to God / your Higher Spiritual Self

At Puna Wai Ora, we regularly receive messages from God to guide us in the work we are doing. When we asked what is the best late stage alternative cancer treatment available, the first reply we received was prayer. The Angels spoke of the Lord's Prayer spoken out loud daily - preferably in Latin - was the most effective late stage cancer treatment. They indicated it was important to: 1. Ask God for forgiveness of any wrong-doings, 2. Ask God to fill them with white love and light, 3. Ask for the pain to be diminished in Jesus' name [or another spiritual being you pray to], 4. State "Please bless me with white love and light in Jesus' name and let the healing begin", and 5. Thank God, Jesus and the Angels for their healing and your recovery. These are the words of God delivered by the angels: "God will decide if a miracle happens. They need to connect with themselves more that they are on the right path to awareness of spiritual realms and God. They must believe in God to get through, to have more faith and trust in God. Once they open up, they will be open up in more ways than one. Their pain will not be as intense, they will be comforted."

Step 12: Choosing an alternative cancer treatment

It is important to choose at least one alternative cancer treatment to target and eliminate cancer cells within the body. In most cases you should only need to choose one treatment in addition to the above 11 steps. We highly recommend your alternative cancer treatment include at least one dietary treatment such as the Johanna Budwig Cancer Diet, the Gerson Therapy Cancer Diet, the Bill Henderson Diet Protocol (based on the Budwig diet), or the Brandt Grape Cure. The 42 day organic juice fast known as the Breuss Cure or Breuss Treatment has also been used in the treatment of cancer. Remember, always choose a diet you enjoy that fosters a will to live. To view a list of further treatment options, see: Alternative Cancer Treatments.

God reveals Cancer is
​seven types of fungus

In this extraordinary revelation, the Holy Spirit of God reveals cancer is in fact seven different types of fungus. The Holy Spirit of God also reveals the two natural remedies for reversing this disease at the outer physical level.


God reveals the cancer-fungus is caused by a subconscious wanting to "exit life"

In a further extraordinary revelation, the Holy Spirit of God reveals cancer is caused by a subconscious wanting to "exit life". Healing the mind-body-spirit is thus a crucial step to fostering a will to live.


Glen Russell: The weed that is cancer must be cut off at the root, to ensure it does not regrow. Many cut off the top of the weed (what we see at the surface) by taking physical remedies; but the root of the dis-ease, the spiritual and mental dis-ease, is often left behind.

Restoring the Krebs' Citric Acid Cycle: A two-pronged approach

As the patient makes a sustained effort to cut off the root of the cancer weed (the spiritual and mental dis-ease), this will begin the process of normalising the Krebs' Citric Acid Cycle naturally, through the normalisation of adrenaline levels and niacin and vitamin C levels. Yet this takes time. And if the cancer has progressed to such a point, that as revealed by God in phase 6 of Cancer may be difficult to reverse, the approach taken by Dr Abram Hoffer and Linus Pauling in Step 8 (below) demonstrates that even in a high percentage of late-stage cancer patients, long term survival is possible using simply this outer physical "Krebs" approach. An analogy one could equate is such: The house is on fire (the cancer in the body) and all the conditions for creating the fire are in the process of being removed (in steps 1-4), yet the fire still burns. So a two-pronged approach is often necessary to both contain and stamp out the existing fire, while at the same time removing all conditions that could restart the fire anew.

About this
​Program

The 12 Step Cancer Survivor Program has been prepared by Glen Russell of Puna Wai Ora Mind-Body Cancer Clinic. It points to critical areas to be considered when one is seeking to reverse the 6 phases of cancer outlined in Psycho-Oncology: The 6 Phases of Cancer.

FAQ

1. Is it necessary to include all 12 steps in this program?

The answer is no. For example, you may address healing the root psycho-emotional cause of cancer (in Step 1) and do this successfully, and combine this with killing the cancer fungus (in Step 6), or with restoring the Krebs' Citric Acid Cycle (in Step 8). If you restore the Krebs' Citric Acid Cycle, this automatically prevents normal cells mutating into the cancer fungus, so in effect Step 6 would not be necessary; although you can do both (Step 6 and Step 8) to super-charge the effect.

Similarly, you could combine Step 1 with a cancer diet (such as the Gerson Therapy Cancer Diet) in Step 12. Both of these steps contribute to eliminating the cancer fungus (in Step 6) and also contribute to normalising pH acid/alkaline levels (in Step 9). Step 1, that is the healing of the root psycho-emotional cause of cancer, also contributes to normalising melatonin, adrenaline and stress hormone cortisol levels, so steps 2-4 are not crucially important if you are already implementing Step 1 correctly.

Deciding which steps to include comes down to personal choice; for not every step of this program is either suitable or well-tolerated; and some of the therapies may present as a contraindication to a patient with a pre-existing condition (such as ozone water should not be consumed by those with lung disease or lung cancer). With that said, one could certainly do all 12 steps of this program (which predominantly are natural therapies) under the supervision of their doctor.

2. Should I undertake chemotherapy / radiation while on this program?

The 12 Step Cancer Survivor Program includes therapies which generally fall under the category of "complementary and alternative medicine" or CAM. For the most part, these therapies support the immune system and the healing process during harsher treatments, such as chemotherapy and radiation. For example, vitamin C is known to protect the immune system during chemotherapy, and hyperthermia is known to increase the effectiveness of radiation.

While there is some anecdotal evidence of survival rates being greater amongst those who do both mainstream medicine and CAM, deciding whether to undertake chemotherapy and radiation remains always a personal choice.

It must also be stressed that Linus Pauling concluded in his research that the effectiveness of high-dose vitamin C was not as effective if used AFTER chemotherapy, versus prior to chemotherapy.

3. Do people recover from cancer on this program?

A number of individuals with late stage cancer who have worked one-on-one with Glen Russell to heal the root psycho-emotional cause of cancer (in Step 1) have entered into complete remission within 2 weeks of having completed their sessions. Some of these patients, including two medical doctors, are mentioned as case studies in Psycho-Oncology: The 6 Phases of Cancer. This, however, does not mean the cancer could not return if the patient does not change their mental outlook, and "re-creates" the psychological conditions that leads to a new bout of cancer.

Apart from these cases who have worked one-on-one with Glen, it is difficult to ascertain the effectiveness of this program, as many combine this program (or parts of it) with other alternative or mainstream therapies.
