@BBCPanorama tonight - the story of Paloma Shemirani, a young woman with an 8cm lymphoma inside her chest, and an 85% chance of a cure with chemo. Her mother Kate, a nurse and conspiracy theorist convinced her to do Gerson Therapy (juicing and enemas) instead. A few months later, Paloma died from a heart attack caused by the growing tumour.
@mariannaspring and her team expose this case and the worrying trend of cancer patients turning to alternative cures that do not work.
I was interviewed for the program, as I have researched a lot of these so-called cures for my book 'The Cancer Roadmap'
