Hurom slow juicer juices vegetables, fruits and leafy greens. Assembling and clean up of the juicer is easy. Ideal for domestic use and for cancer patients who are following the Gerson therapy and need to take fresh juices every hour.
Raw food is an excellent way to cleanse and detoxify the body. However, going on a raw food diet may not be suitable for every cancer patient. Besides, the availability of organic fruits and vegetables will determine whether or not the patient can be put on a total or partial raw food diet.
Taking fresh vegetable and fruit juices is perhaps an easier and simpler way of ingesting raw food. While the Gerson therapy recommends that cancer patients take 13 glasses of fresh juice each day, this may not be feasible for all patients.
Carrot-apple juice is recommended as a basic juice to set the healing process in motion. The frequency and quantity of carrot-apple juice will vary with each patient. Those who have difficulty in swallowing and eating can also be put on a carrot-apple juice regimen.
Tender coconut water is also recommended as an easy way of hydrating the body and flushing out toxins.
Green juices or the juice of green leafy vegetables and herbs can be taken in small quantities, either alone or added to cow’s milk or coconut milk.
A beautiful cure for cancer—Dr. Yumi Ishihara’s method of natural healing
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 disciplined with enough energy to adhere to the strict regime.
The Gerson Therapy treats the causes of most degenerative diseases: toxicity and nutritional deficiency. A steady supply of organic fruits and vegetables is the key to the success of this therapy. Several patients in western countries have followed and benefited from the Gerson therapy-- www.gerson.org
