The Food Cure: Hope or Hype? (2018) Online

I had the chance to see the film in a packed room at La Maison du Cinema in Sherbrooke. The Food Cure is a must-see film if you want to know more not only about cancer and the Gerson diet, but also if you care about your health. Period. Real people, real situations and foremost, real courage. Loved it.

I really enjoyed watching this documentary. Eventhought I have no history with cancer, I found it to be truly eye openning on how our food habits can impact us. The documentary is well realised, nothing too sensational, perfectly dosed and the research on the subject seams on point.

It is so stunning that we do not know more about this food cure. I feel that people who have cancer are being cheated into not knowing about Dr. Gerson research.

The film is really well done. It explains who is this Dr. Getson and hiw he came about this diet. This film is not only about the personal stories of 6 patients and their struggle to win over this disease, but many experts ( doctors, researchers) are interviewed. There are undeniable facts!

Most importantly, this film explains that the food cure is not a miracle cure. The patients work very very hard to make drastic changes in their diet. So much courage!

A must see movie!

Un documentaire qui redonne espoir...je le recommande à tous!

The cancer is impacting a growing number of people. This movie follows 6 people that make a difficult decision, to take an alternative approach to the traditional medical procedures. The movie is well done and I also appreciated that it is not one-sided. It provides a strong message that, facing cancer, you have a choice. Go see it.

" l wanted to live " ...words from Mary, one of the patients

An ode to the diversity of approaches.

Could Hope and Love also be precious ingredients of this cure ?
