If there’s anyone who knows about natural living, it’s Susan Rowan of BalmBalm products. I’ve written about these organic and all-natural products quite a lot, and regularly feature Susan here too. Here, Susan writes about juicing and the Gerson Therapy, which is food for thought (obviously), but fascinating reading too.

You may have heard of the juicing phenomenon around town of late. If it sounds like a hassle, listen up. It’s THE very best thing you can do for your health. Modern living is heeeectic, and I can guarantee you every single one of us aren’t getting the nutrients we need in our diet.

The Gerson Institute claims to have discovered the cure for cancer.

And they’ve proven it. Actually, they’ve been proving it for the last 40 years, in the form of thousands and thousands of people who have been healed using the Gerson therapy.

People from all over the world, travel to Mexico with Stage 4 cancer (and a host of other terrifying diseases) after having undergone chemotherapy and/or surgery with little or no success. Their doctors have sent them packing, and in desperation they have found a little non-profit organisation called the Gerson Institute, run by the Gerson family.

Dr Max Gerson was a doctor based in Germany in the 1920’s. He suffered from debilitating migraine headaches. His peers told him there was nothing he could do about migraines, and wondered why he making such a fuss. He refused to believe that medicine was the only way, and started an elimination date. He soon realised that processed, unnatural foods gave him a migraine within 20 minutes of eating it – and soon became a vegan and never suffered again.

Dr Charlotte Geron, his daughter took over his practice and now runs the Gerson Institute from Mexico. (Shockingly, they are not allowed to operate from the USA, because of the ‘curing cancer’ claims)

The reason why they confidently say that they cure cancer is because after a few weeks on the diet, diseases such as high-blood pressure, diabetes, cholesterol etc. just disappear without a trace! They literally vanish, sometimes in less than 2 weeks. Cancer is more challenging and even the most aggressive forms like pancreatic cancer (Steve Jobs & Patrick Swazye) which is apparently INCURABLE, are no match for the Gerson Therapy.

THE JUICE:

A juice extractor literally gets every little bit of liquid goodness out of the fruit or vegetable, which leaves you with a highly concentrated glass of pure vitamins, minerals and living enzymes. THIS is what gives abundant health, not pills and tablets. I recently bought mine for about R600, but they range from VW to Porsche in price range and features.

A normal sized glass in the morning (probably 500ml or so) gives me as much of a kick as a strong cup of coffee. I usually do whatever is in the fridge.

SKIN CLEANSER:

One glass – 4 x carrots, 1 x apple, half pineapple, celery, parsley, handful or strawberries, handful of blueberries.

It’s the VERY best choice you can make for your health today. And it suits our modern lifestyle perfectly. We can’t all switch to a vegan, vegetarian or raw food diet. Include juice in your diet – once or twice a day. Even once or twice a week. Whatever you can do, but do it.

Check out Charlotte Gerson. I believe she is over 93 years old. She has no medical aid, and she has never been sick a day in her life. When you watch videos of her, you can see how sharp her mind is, how much energy she still has – and absolutely no sign of bone degeneration like arthritis. All of her peers that practice the same habits as her lived into their hundred-teens.

I’ll get some recipes going next time round.

Watch these videos…they are life-changing!
