The Beautiful Truth

I just received my DVD of the Beautiful Truth from Amazon.  There is just so much information there that it's mind boggling! I've watched it three times now.
The following is from the Gerson Media website: http://www.gersonmedia.com/DVDs.html

Garrett is a 15-year old boy living in the Alaskan
wilderness with a menagerie of orphaned animals. Growing
up close with nature has given him a deep understanding
of nutritional needs required by diet sensitive animals on
the reserve. Unfortunately, the untimely and tragic death of
his mother propelled him into a downward spiral and he
risked flunking out of school. This led to his father’s
decision to home-school Garrett. His first assignment was
to study a controversial book written over 50 years ago by
Dr. Max Gerson.

Dr. Gerson found that diet could, and did, cure cancer.
Gerson's pioneering theories were controversial at the
time (and even today), but Garrett took on the challenge of
researching this amazing therapy, drawing the interest of
his neighbors in the small Alaskan community. With the
help of Dr. Gerson’s daughter, Charlotte Gerson, and
grandson, Howard Straus, who gave him the ammunition
needed to go in search for the truth – Garrett brought
home a truth that would affect not only him, but his entire
Alaskan village – all of whom wanted to know if these
claims were true.

After a number of cancer patients, who were diagnosed as
terminal, shared their stories and their medical records
with Garrett, it became abundantly clear that, contrary to
the disinformation campaign spear-headed by the multi-
billion dollar medical and pharmaceutical industry, a cure
for virtually all cancers and chronic diseases does exist –
and has existed for over 80 years!

Garrett’s mission now is to tell the world.


Time to clean more than my house!!
