The Beautiful Truth

The Beautiful Truth

Learning of Judyth Vary Baker today under the sad news about "The Death of Martha Rose Crow" (in "What's on your mind") I discovered Judyth had been involved in cancer research (among many other things). This compelled me to finally watch a movie I've been meaning to get to in my Netflix instant queue called The Beautiful Truth

The movie "The Beautiful Truth" focuses on findings of Dr. Max Gerson that indicate diet can cure cancer. The Gerson Institute was founded by Dr. Gerson's daughter Charlotte and continues to afford avenues into the natural therapies they promote. It's all new to me at this moment, but the movie blew me away by its 'innocent as doves' expose' of corruption in high places.

As the movie opened up I was blown away to discover it was produced by folks in Haines, Alaska (a place near and dear to me by virtue of having lived there, with friends still living there today). The movie focuses on Garrett a 15-year old boy living in the Alaskan wilderness caretaking orphaned animals and the sensitivity he has to the balance of life therein. Amidst this circumstance and pondering diseases of the outside world Garrett stumbles onto the teachings of Dr. Gerson and the movie takes off on an adventure to verify the truth.

Incredibly the movie delves into water fluoridization, mercury tooth amalgams, The American Cancer Society, genetically engineered foods, and the host of ponerized politics that have orchestrated the health care mess we're in. In the most guileless approach to these topics I've encountered "The Beautiful Truth" lays bare the evil poisoning society to the bone while verifying the veracity of the Gerson Therapy.

While Wikipedia will tell you Dr. Max Gerson fled Germany as a German Jew back in 1933 it does not tell you that Dr. Gerson cured Albert Schweitzer and the rapport they had or how Dr. Gerson nearly died while working on his seminal book "A Cancer Therapy; Results of 50 Cases" and then discovered his manuscripts missing apparently stolen by his secretary on behalf of some sort of corporate espionage. Wikipedia won't tell you it took Dr. Gerson another year to heal and recreate his final book only to discover he was ill again poisoned by arsenic which killed him. Fortunately there's no stopping truth, and "The Beautiful Truth" helps make it bare.

I just watched The Beautiful Truth yesterday. Its a very good film dealing with the importance of diet and detoxification, done as a documentary. The only caveat was adherence to the old smoking causes cancer myth, but that was minimal. The rest of the film was well done. It should be recommended to anyone hesitating to jump into proper nutrition and detox.

I liked the scene near the end when the young proponent was advocating the logic behind the coffee enema to the skeptical older couple. I got a chuckle out of that, having been in the squeamish skeptics' shoes at one time.

Edit: Oops, I forgot. Good review DaveOS.

Thanks so much for sharing!

I agree great movie and very informative. It was great to see a young teen aged homeschooler (15 years old) Garrett research and collect some much informative data and present in such an easy to understand documentary. He also has a good sense of humor and presents the enema information with good stick figure sketches :P

I agree rabelais, our 15 year old watched the movie with us and she liked how he handles himself when presenting good advice to the skeptical older couple. The information he compiled really sunk in for her as we have shared this type of information with her over the years, it was refreshing that someone her age articulated the importance of being well informed about toxic food and their effects on human health.

We have given a few copies to friends and they all shared what a great informative movie it is and how impressive this young man is in gathering important information about health and wellness in addition to detoxing and raising awareness about evil food additives such as aspartame. Two thumbs up on this one and great review DaveOS ;)

I'm glad other folks found "The Beautiful Truth" edifying. I think Garrett and his father provide a great example of "people power", but in investigating further I'm pretty amazed at how Charlotte Gerson brought her father's work forward in the face of the oppression she's faced

I finally watched "The Gerson Miracle" (mentioned in "The Beautiful Truth") and was half-surprised to learn how Charlotte couldn't establish a clinic on US soil due to the political lock down on how cancer must be dealt with only according to chemical and surgical treatment. Apparently in the US medical system its "illegal" for a member of the Western medical establishment to even mention Gerson therapy as an approach to treating cancer. The aggressive denial of the Gerson therapy forced Charlotte to establish the clinic in Tijuana which is reputed to have saved thousands.

"The Gerson Miracle" also recounts the fate of ABC newscaster Raymond Gram Swing who apparently became blacklisted in the late 40's (after 30 years as a correspondent ) when he reported a cure for cancer had been found with Dr. Gerson's treatment regimen. Given the basic juice and enema approach of the Gerson therapy, the disclosures of its oppression seem to stand as a clear example of the extremes the PTB will go to in suppressing basic human potential.

Despite the oppressed circumstances "The Gerson Miracle" presents, the movie also provides pragmatic details about good living amidst navigating modern society. I found the movie inspiring in the midst of all the dire news we're under (and recently watching "Food Inc"). Although the movie clearly presents the martial lockout of truth, it also makes plain basic procedures for activating healing capacities, and brings to light not just the immune capacities of the human anatomy but also it's natural capabilities for creating well being.

In light of the discoveries regarding the ketogenic diet, could I say that the Gerson therapy is poorly formulated because of the abundance of carbs and fructose from the fruit/vegetable juices that causes inflammation in an already sick body?


I asked a friend to let me read briefly the book about Gerson therapy and it recommends lots of coffee enemas which is not recommended due to the frequency of enemas, making the person becoming addicted to them. And on top of that I noticed subtle undertones of a salesman manipulation tactic to grab the reader's attention, however the lack of medical research references puts this therapy under a big question mark or doubt.

Is my assessment accurate?

I'm not familiarized with their sales tactics, but I've seen a documentary about it and tend to agree with your assessment. It is heavily rich in fructose and carbs which feed cancer cells. I think that some people get better because they cut out toxic sources of foods (i.e. gluten and dairy, GMOs, pesticides).

The coffee enemas might be addictive, but they do help in cancer pain and in some studies, it has shown promising results. I think there is some info gathered about it here in the forum. Try searching for "coffee enemas", "pancreatic cancer", "Gerson therapy".

But yeah, I think coffee enemas can get addictive and thus detrimental.
