Greetings!
 
 
Charlotte Gerson spoke at the 37th Annual Cancer Control Society Convention and received a standing ovation.  Afterwards, our booth was flooded with people wanting to buy books, sign up for our email list, learn about the Gerson Therapy, register for our caregiver and practitioner training programs, and more. 
  
Our deepest thank you to all the volunteers and staff who helped transport Charlotte and staff our booth.

New Brochure & Upgraded Website
 
The Gerson Institute now has a new free 10 page introductory booklet to provide a thorough overview for people considering trying the Gerson Therapy and wanting to learn about the Gerson Institute's history, programs and services.  You can download a PDF of the brochure from our website on the homepage.  Feel free to share it with others.  Thank you from the bottom of our hearts to Sharon Taylor STGraphicZone.com, our volunteer graphic artist who did all the design work!
 
REQUEST: If you or anyone you know is able to donate paper and/or printing, it will allow us to mail this brochure to many more people. 
 
When you go to our website www.gerson.org, you will notice a new "look" and also that it is much easier to find information.  We also have an entirely new and secure store with items categorized by topics (e.g. "How to do the Gerson Therapy") as well as by type (e.g. books, DVD's).  Much gratitude to Stan Simmons who volunteered countless hours to create all of this.  Check it out and if you have any suggestions about how to improve our store and website, contact Diane Ake. 
 
If you have not visited our store for a while, we have some new DVD's, have converted some of the older audiotapes into CD's and videotapes into DVD's, and have some new editions of old favorites, such as Dr. Max Gerson: Healing the Hopeless.

Lastly, we need people to write reviews for our new store, if you have read any of our books, listened to any of our CD's or viewed any of our DVD's.  Just go to the store, click on the item and click on "Write a Review" on the bottom of the page.  Thanks!

Practitioner Training


October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month.  We were contacted by a health practitioner who is asking for people to contribute to a natural healing organization like the Gerson Institute instead of some of the conventional organizations that are usual recipients of donations.  Consider spreading the word about the Gerson Therapy for Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
