Why do cancer patients begin on a modified version of the Gerson Therapy after chemotherapy pre-treatment? Why is the clinic the preferred place to start the therapy in this situation?
When a person receives chemotherapy, a percentage of each dose stays lodged within the body. This residual varies depending upon the dosage and length of treatment. When the Gerson Therapy begins to work, it can very quickly dislodge toxins, including chemotherapy residue from the cells into the bloodstream. Patients with these large amounts of toxins being released into their blood stream often cannot detoxify their body fast enough and can become very sick and overburden their liver. When a chemotherapy pre-treated patient comes to a Gerson clinic, the doctors modify the therapy in a number of ways and are able to monitor the patients response and make daily adjustments based on observation, lab tests and their years of expertise in this area.
