Today’s gift idea is probably not one you’d give unless it was to someone very close to you and you knew he/she would be interested in this type of book and would appreciate it. Maybe it’s a gift you’d like to give yourself. I know that not everyone “buys into” the connection between the foods we eat and how our bodies are affected by disease and not everyone wants to make lifestyle changes, preferring to address health conditions with traditional medical approaches.
When we first began looking into food sensitivities and investigating a potential connection between food and our son’s eczema, it had never entered our minds that some of the symptoms we were experience could also be related to what we were eating. It was a profound, life-changing experience for us that, we believe, put us on a path towards better health overall as a family.
When I first came across this book, The Gerson Therapy, my interest was immediately perked because of our experiences with the effects of our daily diet on our health. This type of approach to treating disease sounds as though it requires some major changes, yet, I know there are people, like myself, who would be willing to make these changes if their lives depended on it and who would like to at least know about the information to investigate for themselves.
So while I pondered whether or not to include this book in our gift ideas… because it’s sort of an “odd” type of gift, definitely not your normal choice for a gift for someone, I figured there would be some situations where it might make an excellent gift, even if just for yourself. Along with the book, we have included a link to a recipe book for those following the therapy:

I have not read the book, so cannot give even a personal opinion on it, but if I were considering purchasing it, I would definitely check the customer reviews to find out what people who’ve read it think about it.
Thanks for joining the party today! Â
Have a great day!
