gerson therapy.

why is it illegal in the united states to treat cancer with anything other than chemotherapy, radiation, and/or surgery? is it because the u.s. is slow on the uptake of thinking outside the box? is it because cancer is a trillion dollar industry that would force thousands of specialists to live a less luxurious lifestyle if it were to have a cure? or is the data provided by the Gerson therapy treatment simply not convincing enough?
is it not enough that Max Gerson has found a cure for cancer, diabetes, asthma, obesity, and just about every other chronic illness- in 1928? is it because he doesn't use pharmaceuticals or harsh treatments, but instead uses organic nutritional therapy to cure his patients?
it's truly upsetting that america's healthcare system is falling behind third- world countries because of our capitalistic priorities which outrank the quality of life for our citizens.
