The Food Cure: Hope or Hype? plot

Hope or hype, can a particular diet alleviate or even cure a serious illness such as cancer? That question is central to The Food Cure. Director Sarah Mabrouk follows six cancer patients who opt for plant-based nutritional treatment over chemotherapy and radiation. The so-called Gerson therapy, criticized by the medical world. Their experiences are filmed over a period of more than five years. Not only the amazing feats that can be achieved with nutrition come into the picture, but also the obstacles and daily struggles that patients experience as they try to fight their disease with their diet.
