4.0 out of 5 stars How a cure for cancer was suppressed for 50 years., March 16, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Censured for Curing Cancer: The American Experience of Dr. Max Gerson (Paperback)

Mr. Haught, an investigative journalist, started out to do an expose on a "quack", and soon found himself writing about a grand conspiracy to suppress a holistic cure for cancer. He details the coverup of Dr. Gerson's work with documentary evidence from books, newspapers and even the Congressional Record.

This book is inspiring for patients with advanced cancer, since there are many stories of patients alive years after their physicians sent them home to die, including five presented by Dr. Gerson to the Pepper-Neely Subcommittee of the Senate in 1946. It is also maddening and frustrating to realize that millions of people have died unnecessarily of cancer because the AMA does not consider the therapy "scientific".

The book will make you want to cry, after you are finished screaming in frustration at big medicine.
