Gerson Institute

I am so glad we visited The Gerson Institute during our trip to San Diego. This is a great place to find a lot of information in alternative healing. They have books, videos, classes, retreats, healthy foods, oils… you name it!
The staff was very friendly and welcoming. Worth visiting again for sure!

So glad there is such a great place to find alternative healing. In this day and age when society pushes us from one medication to the other, it’s good to know there is a very knowledgable staff willing to share the secret to good health. I am a volunteer at the Gerson Institute, and every time I come in to help I end up walking out with some new found information on how to improve my health.
They are working on a Gerson cookbook, which I can’t wait to own. I’m a healthy person but I love eating the Gerson meals and drinking the juices. Nutrition is the base to good health :)
Thank Goodness for this amazing place!

I Love the Gerson Institute, everyone there is super friendly and helpful. They have so many resources to either help you or a loved one through possibly very difficult times, or maybe you just want to learn more about this effective treatment or living well lifestyle.
I was shocked to see the negative reviews, the Gerson Institute is a classy operation. They are not here to do anything but help as many people as possible.
What’s great is you can always check out this great place for yourself, after all they are right down in San Diego.

If I was giving stars for the Gerson therapy, I’d be giving 5 stars. Unfortunately, I had a bad experience with the institute. I signed up for the gerson basics workshop which I was VERY excited about. I got very sick the week of the workshop and my dr said I should not travel. Gerson is keeping apportion of the fee I paid. I can understand if I just changed my mind or blew it off, they should keep a significant portion… but my Dr said not to go! And in this case, an exception should have been made and I should have been refunded in full. Instead, they get to keep $ 10-​$ 50 and have an upset customer. Was it really worth it?

I ordered some items from the Gerson Institute on ⁸⁄₁₃. They created the shipping info with FedEx ground on ⁸⁄₂₁ but didn’t get the product to them until ⁸⁄₂₃. And now a product I was expecting in about 7 – 8 business days won’t be delivered until ⁸⁄₂₉! What makes this a little more annoying is that I called to check the status of the order on ⁸⁄₂₁ and they didn’t even tell me that it hadn’t shipped yet!

From the name I hope you know that this is not a restaurant. What it is well known for is the founder Max Gerson and dietary detoxification for successfully treating «incurable» diseases. You do not have be ill to appreciate it or try what is recommended. I love their organic 13 juice cocktail. The recommended vegetarian meals and fresh fruit desserts always that easy to duplicate if you are new to the Raw Lifestyle or a fast-​food-​junky, so if you’re ever in San Diego, check it out — call ahead though or go to their web site.
Here is what one happy customer had to say years ago. During an interview, Dr. Albert Schweitzer (you know, the Nobel Laureate, physician and humanitarian) and a healed Gerson patient said «I see in Dr. Max Gerson one of the most eminent geniuses in the history of medicine. He has achieved more than seemed possible under adverse conditions. Many of his basic ideas have been adopted without having his name connected with them. He leaves a legacy which commands attention and which will assure him his due place. Those whom he has cured will attest to the truth of his ideas.»
Can you find a recommendation like that in Zagat?
