<< in "Mystical Diets" by Jack Raso, there is a brief discussion of a study
 on the Gerson therapy, by Steve Austin (published in "Options: The
 Alternative Cancer Therapy Book" [1993]). Austin tracked the progress
 of 30 patients at the Gerson Clinic. Five years later he was able
 to locate or find info on 22 of the 30. Of the 22, only one was still
 alive - 21 were dead of cancer. >>

When did he track the patients?  Is this the old style Gerson treatment, or
the new style treatment?
