By itself?: The best thing about Gerson therapy is its emphasis on excellent nutrition, very clean & anti-inflammatory. It's also a difficult therapy to keep up with, without help with all the juicing requirements. This treatment approach was developed specifically for various cancers. Fibromyalgia is not one of the conditions listed on the http://gerson.Org web site, so it's difficult to say yes or no.

Apparently not: Person asks if Gerson Therapy is efficacious for fibromyalgia. It would seem that if the Gerson organization had authentic clinical data, and not just testimonials, the physician community would be aware of such data published by the Gerson organization; to be disseminated to patients as a potentially beneficial alternative treatment. To my knowledge there is no such data or publication.
