Synopsis
Written ‘lightly’ with snippets of humor and humanness by "Gerson persons", designed to give insight into this healing protocol or, to be picked up when needing a bit of inspiration or a recipe. Why? Because data overload can be experienced when starting, or considering, the Gerson Therapy, especially as it’s usually to heal a serious, even life threatening disease. Includes 68 recipes which follow the Gerson Therapy principles. Each with an appetizing photograph to entice a healthy appetite and motivate the 'cook within'. Read this if you already ‘know’ about the Gerson Therapy, especially if you are doing it, for a guaranteed smile! It's also a great insightful read for those supporting a loved one and wanting an understanding of what it is like to be on the therapy. Whether you are on the Gerson Therapy, or a support person, you will be pleased to know everything you read here is purely following the principles laid down by Dr Max Gerson … every word is Gerson “friendly” but it is absolutely not a replacement for any Gerson Institute information. All proceeds go to Gerson Therapy charities. So … if you are lucky enough to be in a position to afford this book, why not gift copies for others?
Review
Howard Straus, grandson of Dr Max Gerson, says... "Ms. Bairstow writes with a humor and humanity that acceptsexhaustion, discouragement, familial disruption, and says, "Okay, todaywas not a perfect day, but tomorrow, we start all over again, with aclean slate and another opportunity to do it better." Along the way, she has put together a really good list of tasty Gerson-compliant recipes (including beautiful photographs) that made my mouth water. Otherpatients have helped her along the way, contributing their experiences,successes and, yes, disappointments and failures, recipes and comicalincidents (like carrot pulp on the ceiling), necessities and hints tomake it all easier. Happy Gerson is a guidebook and journey map for theGerson newbie. It is not a substitute for the Therapy book, any morethan a cheerleading team will win a football game. But cheerleadersencourage the crowd, the players, and help the team to come away with awin, if possible." Kathleen Blake says ... "How I wish I would have had this amazing book when I did theGerson Therapy many years ago. HAPPY GERSON is chock full of wonderful,easy to prepare Gerson meals with beautiful mouth-watering photographsof each recipe. It is truly a book full of happiness to aid in ourhealing the Gerson way! I love how all the proceeds from the book go tothe non-profit Gerson Institute and The Carrot Fund to help Gersonpatients on their healing journey."
