No !

No one has published any reliable scientific evidence to prove alternative therapies such as Gerson therapy can cure cancer.

When some one is diagnosed with cancer, particularly at a young age, the shock is unimaginable!

People are so shocked they start to question everything.

People can be understandably very worried about side effects of conventional treatments such as chemotherapy.

People with cancer can be frightened about everything.

BUT alternative therapy is not the answer to their worries and concerns.

Alternative therapy has not been shown to cure cancer.

There are lot of scams on social media promoting so called alternative or complimentary therapy. Be careful!

Even worse are the misguided people who promote well-intentioned but dangerous unscientific information.

Any one who has been newly diagnosed with cancer should be aware of the enormous amount of misinformation out there.

Some complementary therapies (eg massage, aromatherapy ) can have palliative and psychological benefits but they do not cure or control the cancer.

The recent BBC news article about a young women, who died of a potentially curable cancer, should be a warning to other people.
