Re: [cancercured] tumor promotion with sodium bicarbonate

The Gerson Diet is an anti-cancer diet not necessarily because it alkalizes but because:

1. It is a calory restrictive diet (starves the cancer).
2. It is made mainly of fruits and vegetables (particularly their juices) which:
a: Contain many cancer fighting phytonutrients (fight cancer)
b. Are not energy consuming. They are easily digested, processed and assimilated (important in chronic diseases)

What does this suggest about the Gerson diet,
which is profoundly alkaline?
