Dying to Have Known: The Evidence Behind Natural Healing

Synopsis: Flmmaker Steve Kroschel,sets out to find hard evidence of the effectiveness of the Gerson Therapy, a long-suppressed natural cancer cure. He travels within the US and to Japan, Holland, Spain and Mexico and presents the testimony of patients, scientists, surgeons and nutritionists who testify to the effectiveness of the Gerson Therapy in curing cancer and other degenerative diseases and claim to show scientific evidence to back up their claims. The film asks, "Why is this powerful curative therapy still suppressed, more than 75 years after it was clearly proven to cure degenerative disease?" Those interviewed include top nutritional and agricultural experts, two surgeons, a Japanese medical school professor who cured himself of liver cancer over 20 years ago, a lymphoma patient who was diagnosed as "terminal" over 50 years ago, as well as noted critics of this healing method who dismiss it as "pure quackery."
