I won't undergo this demeaning procedure (colonoscopy) once every 5 years to detect early signs of colon cancer that could be nipped in the bud, but I will undergo coffee enemas up to 5 times per day for weeks, months, or years, once I have cancer that could have been prevented/detected/cured by finding it early with a colonoscopy.
Makes perfect sense.
Gerson therapy is advocated by its supporters as a method of treating cancer patients based on changes in diet and nutrient intake. No results of laboratory or animal studies have been published in scientific journals. Get detailed information about Gerson therapy in this summary for clinicians.

Gerson therapy involves a specific organic vegetarian diet with nutritional supplements and enemas.
www.cancerresearchuk.org
"The Gerson diet is a strict low salt, organic fruit and vegetable diet.
Each day you will need to:
- drink 20 pounds (about 9 kilos) of crushed fruit and vegetables (one glass of juice hourly, 13 times each day)
- have up to 5 coffee enemas and perhaps also castor oil enemas
- take potassium and other supplements, including vitamin B12, pancreatic enzymes and thyroid supplements"
But one colonoscopy is demeaning....
Kiotis are orange. That's about the only thing we can agree on.
It comes from Germany. Anything medical from Germany I view with a jaundiced eye.
The Homeopathy cult came from Germany, IIRC. (and I do)
A friend of mine..... My very best friend, in fact, bought into that crap. He tried to treat everything with some kind of magic potion or herbs, teas and extracts.
I have to admit, he was one of the healthiest people I'd ever know. Especially for his age (1 year younger than me and I'm older than dirt). Strong as an Ox. Big man. 6'3" 230lbs of solid muscle.
He didn't drink, he didn't smoke..... He didn't even cuss!. Lived a very clean life. Even went to Church every week.
But anyway, before he retired he worked for a big Ag company and he had to go down into Northern Indiana for several Months out of the year. He picked it up from the Amish and Mennonites down there, I think.
Anyway, he had Sleep Apnea. He was a big man with a thick, muscular neck. If you're like that, take notice.
I was in his house one time and I saw a big bottle of Antibiotics on his counter that hadn't been opened. And they'd been issued by the VA two or three Months prior. I jumped his ass because he wouldn't take them. He was doing some kind of BS Holistic treatment. I shamed him into taking his Antibiotics and it cleared up his prostatitis. Like it's supposed to do.
His Sleep Apnea? He had a CPAP machine. Wouldn't use it unless his daughter heard him snoring and kicked his ass and made him.
So he goes on the road for a long trip to Texas, pulled over for a nap and died in his sleep.
I miss him every day. He was the kindest man I've ever known.
