The simple truth:
November 6, 2011 3:23 pm

People who call ‘conventional’ treatments proven vs ‘natural’ (not alternative but original) or any other type of treatment are believing in hocus pocus. Do you know how medical researchers ‘prove’ their methods? While there is some intelligence that goes into what to try: It’s simple as pi, they administer a treatment and measure the results. (e.g. chemo to 100 patients, 10 patients show total remission [tumors gone], 40 show varying decrease in size of tumors etc, 30 show original tumors gone, while new tumors surface or no change, 20 show significant increase in tumors). Such is an example of the… Read more »

unbelievable!

i urge everybody to take the time and watch this video.wow so sorry i missed the eve….will there be another one?

interesting

Although one can never judge the family of a cancer patient for trying anything and everything (even though some people take advantage of this), I am curious, with a headline like “THERE IS A CURE FOR YENE MACHLA”, why Steve Jobs with his net worth of 9 billion did not get a hold of this master of cures. Its a real shame that not knowing about something so freely advertised to us on COLlivecom cost Mr. Jobs his life.

Why don’t you watch the video !!!

It clearly says that America is CORRUPT. 1946 they fired a radio guy for announcing the Gerson’s Diet results on radio.

What are you proving from The messed up US Government.

If you said the sky is green, no, noone will believe you coz it is not. If someone is healed from cancer through this diet there is nothing not to believe, they are living examples. So go keep your bridge to yourself.

To number 3
November 5, 2011 11:35 pm

Let your food be your medicine and your medicine be your food.

To number 3. The FDA approve of too many tocix things and dont approve of these health remedies…why? because they’l lose money. Do you honestly believe theyr there for your best interest? The pharmaceutical company is a billion dollar making company and thats all there is to it. So please do yuor research. And a healthh diet certainly wont harm you.

being healthy

Food has everything to do with ppl getting sick so it’s absolutely true what he’s talking about

Use common sense
November 5, 2011 11:09 pm

Any one who promises a cure or prevention for numerous unrelated medical issues is selling snake oil. As survivor of several unrelated cancers and a person who has seen improvement in several areas where I have been on beneficial medications I am frightened when I hear of this type of endorsement of untested theories. The major danger is that a person will try such a diet before trying proven medical help. Why are peopel so gulible as to belive that because something is “natural” it is better then something made to cosistent standards. Haven’t you ever noticed that some foods… Read more »

Sounds amazing!
November 5, 2011 11:01 pm

I’m sure if we followed this diet we would all feel alot better. Fruits & vegetables are Hashem’s gifts to us and instead we buy all that expensive processed food that make us sick!

closed minds
November 5, 2011 10:49 pm

it’s a pity that many have close minds,yes it is true this diet can help,and it’s also true that the person needs to go 1 step at a time,natural healing is like a onion,there are 7 rings in a onion,when a person gets to one level he will need to change untill the next level,this diet is very good however care must be given as not everyone is ready to start at this first level,please contact me and l will give you a name of a person who will be able to tell you at what level you can start… Read more »

Steve jobs delayed operating on his yen’eh ma’chalo for 9 months while he tried hocus pocus diets, and ultimately he recognized that he had ushered his demise by doing so.

Every single body is different

Take care of your body and Soul and you cannot get sick.
Disease is a lack off health. just beacuse you aren’t sick now doesn’t mean you are well.
There is no one diet fit all. Raw foods may be good for one person but not for another.

Healing is a personal journey
November 4, 2011 6:28 pm

Nowhere does this blurb claim to “cure cancer.” Nobody, not even your doctor can claim that. They just give you survival statistics. We do know, that a natural lifestyle, based on a healthy, organic whole food diet is related to a much longer, healthier life with fewer incidences of chronic disease. There is a growing body of practitioners who approach disease as a symptom of a much bigger problem, stemming from a lifetime of chronic malnutrition, de-mineralized food full of toxic pesticides and fertilizers. This is beyond science, this is common sense. Luckily, there are hundreds of researchers rejecting artificial… Read more »

Steve Jobs tried it
November 4, 2011 6:00 pm

he lately was quoted saying that he regrets not seeking conventional medicin as diet did not cured him and may caused more harm the good
I would be very careful suggesting “diet cures” as this is just another modren times “snake oils” case

To number 2.
November 4, 2011 5:43 pm

Do your research and please dont make such close-minded comments. YES CANCER has been HEALED many many times through diet. Wake up and see whats out there outside your doctors office. You’d be amazed at how powerful your body can heal itself when fed the correct diet.

Yes it is true.
November 4, 2011 5:41 pm

The raw food diet has healed countless cancer patients, and any other health issue. Its not that this diet heals cancer, its a diet that allows your body to heal itself and get itself back into balance. It is unbelievable.

very true
November 4, 2011 5:23 pm

read this article about a local guy who survived cancer with natural remedies http://www.3rdward.com/winter2011/2010/12/9/delete-the-facts-how-zev-eisenberg-rejected-nys-top-oncologi.html

Really
November 4, 2011 5:12 pm

If it has been done many times it sort of tells you it has something to it. Many cures were done after they were given up on by their doctors. Look into it.

can we watch it live?

Eating good makes sense, but opposition to a controversial therapy is not an indication of that “big pharma” is really worried that it works. This too good to be true. Check out the controversies of Dr. N. Gonzales, a huge advocate of part of this approach.

Eat well, you live well. If you get sick, Gd Forbid, seek good counsel, and get a second opinion!

Just so a different point of view is posted:

The American Cancer Society recommends that “nutritional cancer cures” be avoided. That’s in the CA: A Cancer Journal for Clinicians. Moreover, websites for MD Anderson and Sloan Kettering both write that there is no scientific evidence that these methods work. I’ll throw in the National Cancer Institutes page as well:

Please educate yourselves, and do not supplant real medical expertise with unproven, potentially dangerous alternatives.

no way!
November 4, 2011 4:23 pm

A raw food diet that leads to the cure of Autism, Yene Machla, and more? I do’nt buy it. in fact, neither does the FDA, who finds it illegal to market this diet in the US due to the fact there has been NO randomized testing (a sign of a good study) on this whatsoever. more so, the only evidence that this diet works is anecdotal. If 9 people were to tell you the sky is green, would you believe then vs. the 10,000,000 that won’t? The anecdotal evidence for this diet isn’t so good either: of the 13 patients… Read more »

It is irresponsible to suggest that something so serious can be cured through diet

really?
November 4, 2011 3:38 pm

Are you sure that all needed to cure all forms of cancer is a low whatever diet? Being that no one is sure don’t post the title of an event based on unproven science. The underling message is that if only Levi would have known to not eat whatever. It is insulting to his memory and all others fighting for their lives against this horrible disease.
