Marcabious, although this club hasn't drawn many
people yet, I'll offer a response to your
survey.<br><br>First, my wife and I are both 59 and are more or less
healthy, that is we have no major problem at the present
time and consume a relatively healthy diet.<br><br>My
wife does have some arthritis in her hands and some
carpal tunnel symptoms in her wrists. As an artist this
has bothered enough that she has considered giving up
art work because after working on a picture her hands
had been nearly unusable the next day. The same
results exist in her "real world" work as a legal
secretary in that when she uses her hands a lot, the next
day she can't even type.<br><br>For me, I happen to
be a type two diabetic. About a year ago my numbers
began to increase and even after the doctor increased
my medication they continued to rise. They had risen
to the point that they were commonly in the 180 to
210 range. Although careful on my diet, my weight had
increased to over 230 and my feet were increasingly numb
through my ankles and I got up at least once a night to
go to the bathroom. <br><br>About three months ago a
friend called me about a supplement. Now it should be
understood that my business background is such that I know
far more about the companies that produce and market
such products than most people. To say that I am a
skeptic doesn't come close to my feelings. Anyway, my
wife and I decided to try this product for a month
knowing it won't work, but at least telling my friend we
tried.<br><br>Rather than go through the last three months in detail,
my wife and I have found the following
results:<br><br>The pain in my wife's hands has reduced dramatically.
After heavy hand use, she no longer is incapacitated
the next day, instead its simply another day. As an
unexpected result her monthly cycle has become reliable and
no longer has the associated pain.<br><br>Both of us
have seen an improvement in muscle tone and in skin
smoothness. We both have more energy that prior to beginning
this supplement and seem more alert.<br><br>My feet
stopped being numb within three days. By the end of the
first week I was sleeping through the night with no
need to get up and go to the bathroom. My numbers have
dropped into the 90s and I have cut my diabetic medicine
in half. My weight has dropped to under 200 pounds.
Oh yeah, three months ago I was taking a complete
roll of Rolaids daily and I now haven't had any for
over a month. As an unexpected result for me, I have
always had rough skin on my elbows and large calluses on
my toes, and now the skin is smooth on my elbows and
the calluses don't exist. <br><br>I make the point
again, our diet has always been quite good and we have
not really changed it. By the way, we are not
vegetarians. <br><br>From the start of taking this supplement,
we increased the dosage each day for the first 18
days and then maintained that level for 60 days which
is the detoxification period. At the end of that
period we dropped down to the maintenance dosage.
<br><br>If these results were simply from my wife and I, we
would likely still have some degree of skepticism, but
friends of ours are also taking it. They too have similar
results. In fact some of them have really serious health
challenges and have received some rather dramatic results.
