This book is only written for those whom the physicians

have given up on. It can provide you with information you

need as you consult with a Gerson-trained physician at the

Gerson Institute.

Caution: Consult with your physician and do not,

without his guidance, attempt self-help therapy. The

author and publisher are not responsible for any

attempt to do so. This information is provided as an

educational tool concerning certain aspects of cancer.

“The physician . . hesitates to take risks for his patients by

applying a not-recognized treatment . . I was in a more fa-

vorable position. Ninety to ninety-five percent of my patients

were far advanced (terminal) cases without any risk to take;

either all recognized treatments had failed or the patients

were inoperable from the beginning.”

—Max Gerson, A Cancer Therapy, p. xiv

“I should like to tell you what we do to prove that this treat-

ment really does work on cancer. Number one, the results. I

think I can claim [stated in 1956] that I have, even in these far

advanced cases, 50% results.”

Physiology of Coffee Enemas 28

Summary of the Gerson Therapy

The Physiology of Coffee

Just what does coffee do in the human body?

It is a remarkable fact that, according to the

manner in which it is taken, it has two entirely

different effects.

If a diluted mixture of coffee is taken in an

enema, it opens up the bile ducts so toxic sub-

stances can be emptied out of the liver. For about

54 years, Dr. Max Gerson used coffee enemas to

do this—and found no other side effects. Instead,

he found that diluted coffee enemas would save

lives, when nothing else would.

“Where do we begin? The most important first

step is the detoxification. So let us go into that.

First we gave some different enemas. I found out

that the best enema is the coffee enema as it was

first used by Prof. O.A. Meyer in Goettingen. This

idea occurred to him when, together with Prof.

Heubner, he gave caffeine solution into the rectum

of animals. He observed that the bile ducts were

opened and more bile could flow . .

“These patients who absorb the big tumor

masses [from the tumor into the blood stream into

the liver] are awakened with an alarm clock every

night because they are otherwise poisoned by the

absorption of these masses. If I give them only one

or two or three enemas, they die of poisoning. I did

not have the right as a physician to cause the body

to absorb all the cancer masses and then not to

detoxify enough. With two or three enemas they

were not detoxified enough! They went into a coma

hepaticum (liver coma).

“Autopsies showed that the liver was poisoned. I

learned from these disasters that you can’t give

these patients too much detoxification . . When I

didn’t give these patients the night enemas, they

were drowsy and almost semi-conscious in the

morning. The nurses confirmed this and told me

that it takes a couple of enemas till they are free of

this toxic state again. I cannot stress the detoxifi-

cation enough. Even so with all these enemas, this

was not enough! I had to also give them castor oil

by mouth and by enema every other day, at least

for the first week or so.

“After these two weeks you wouldn’t recognize

these patients any more! They had arrived on a

stretcher, and now they walked around! They had

appetite. They gained weight and the tumors went

down.”— Max Gerson, A Cancer Therapy, pp. 407-

408.

In strong contrast, if a cup of coffee is swal-

lowed, it has entirely different effects—and all

of those effects are extremely negative:

“A cup of coffee taken by mouth has an entirely

different effect . . It heightens the reflex response,

lowers the blood pressure, increases heart rate, per-

spiration, causes insomnia and heart palpita-

tion.”— Max Gerson, A Cancer Therapy, p. 191.

Checking a standard 1,450-page textbook (pp.

374-377 of Mosby’s Pharmacology in Nursing )

which deals with the subject, the effects of drinking

coffee or other caffeine products are well-known.

“More frequent side effects include increased

nervousness or jittery feelings and irritation of GI

tract resulting in nausea. More frequent adverse

reactions in neonates abdominal swelling or dis-

tension, vomiting, body tremors, tachycardia, jit-

ters, or nervousness.”— Mosby’s Pharmacology in

Nursing, p. 375.

It is an intriguing fact that not one of these

terrible side effects occurs when a coffee enema

is given! Max Gerson said that “a cup of coffee taken

by mouth has an entirely different effect.” That was

his observation from about 1925, onward to his

death in 1959.

A diluted coffee enema has one, different, and

powerful effect: the strong dilation of the bile

ducts. This never occurs when coffee is drunk

by mouth.

It is clear that drinking coffee by mouth and

taking a diluted mixture of it, temporarily into

the lower bowel, have totally different effects.

Why is this?

Here are four reasons why:

First, God made the stomach and small in-

testines to be the normal means of absorbing

substances from the food. This includes carbohy-

drates, amino acids, fats, and other nutrients.

Apparently, the lower bowel was not designed

to absorb substances as well. It does not have the

lacteals, found in the small intestine, which absorb

nutrients into the blood stream.

Second, coffee drunk by mouth, passes

through the entire gastro-intestinal system. In

contrast, a diluted coffee enema only enters the

lower part of the large bowel.

Max Gerson’s consistent practice (continued

The Physiology of Coffee

today by the Gerson Institute and all patients) is

never to give high colonics, but only low enemas.

The fluid enters and is retained only in the lower

bowel.

The present author suggests that it would have

to be the latter. If the coffee entered the blood stream

and was carried to the liver,—that same coffee would

also travel throughout the body and produce all

those negative effects which coffee taken by mouth

does (heart palpitations, body tremors, etc.).

But since a coffee enema produces none of these

bad effects, it must be that coffee only sends a sig-

nal, via the nerves, to the liver.

Thus we are confronted by the fact that cof-

fee enemas apparently are not harmful to the

system. This conclusion may be incorrect. But that

is where the observable facts lead us.

Third, coffee, when drunk, remains in the

body for up to 5-6 hours, until it is entirely ab-

sorbed by the lacteals and has passed into the blood

stream, thence to be carried throughout the body

and into every organ, wreaking havoc on the entire

system.

But, in accordance with consistent Gerson di-

rectives, a diluted coffee enema only remains in the

lower bowel 12 to 15 minutes—and then it is ex-

pelled.

However, let us take this matter one step fur-

ther:

I know any number of people who would never

drink a cup of coffee, yet who are quick to take

an antibiotic when they are sick. Yet drinking a

cup of coffee is far less dangerous!

I have never drunk coffee nor taken a coffee

enema, yet it is clear to me that we are here dealing

with saving human lives.

If taking diluted coffee enemas will help save

the life of a cancer patient who is dying, then I

for one will not be the one to tell him he should

not take them.

And I do not believe I am wrong in making this

decision.

Fourth, in order to produce so many differ-

ent effects, coffee taken by mouth would have to

enter the bloodstream,

Yet it is quite obvious that a diluted coffee en-

ema does not enter the bloodstream—for if it did, it

would produce the very same effects,— which it does

not. Instead it produces a single, entirely different

effect: the powerful opening of the bile ducts, so

poisons stored in the liver can be released.

What is the mechanism by which this occurs?

Max Gerson has stated that the diluted coffee in

the enema, instead of actually traveling to the liver

in the bloodstream, may only send a signal to it.

Are there other problematic substances used

in the Gerson Therapy?

There are several other Gerson “medications”

which are not needed by those who are healthy,

but which are given to help the sick recover health.

The Gerson therapy is focused on but two ob-

jectives: filling the body with nutrients and ex-

pelling toxic substances from the body. In the

process of doing these two things, the cancer is

totally eliminated. Everything is done to achieve

these two goals.

1 - Liver extract is given because of the continu-

ally lowered quality of fresh fruits and vegetables.

Gerson began using such a product in 1950, be-

cause he found that lab reports revealed that, by

the late 1940s, fresh fruits and vegetables no longer

had as much nutrients as they had in the early

1930s!

If you think you can obtain enough nourishment

from fruit and vegetables, then skip the liver.

2 - Pancreatin tablets are given. These help to

reduce digestive problems during the heavy detoxi-

fication process.

But if you do not need it, do not take it.

3 - In addition to iodine (Lugol’s solution), thy-

roid is also given. The purpose of this is to ensure

that enough iodine is obtained by the cells. (It is the

potassium and iodine which starve the sodium out

of the cancer cell, killing it.)

If you think you are likely to obtain enough io-

dine from the Lugol’s, then do not use the thyroid.

4 - Castor oil is given to help flush the poisons

out of the intestinal tract, which have been poured

into it from the liver through the bile ducts. The

effect of castor bean oil is similar to the laxative

herbs, except that it is more efficient.

You would be very wise not to skip it.

In all these matters, you are the boss. But know

that Gerson worked out a formula which produces

terrific results—but primarily in those who care-

fully remain on the full program for 18 to 24 months.
