Diabetes & weight loss - Margaret Ferguson I am very excited about what has happened for me and my family because of the Herbalife Cellular Nutrition Program.When I started using the products I was close to 16 stone. I am an onset Diabetic on Insulin and at the time was having to use 76 units of insulin daily by 4 injections.I had general aches and pains in my joints, and found it sometimes painful to get up from sitting and moving around. I had suffered from constipation since my first pregnancy. My general attitude and self esteem were very low. I was also always fatigued. In the first week of using the products, I lost 5 kilos, 5 inches from hips, waist and bust, I had to reduce my insulin to 58 units per day and experienced a massive increase in energy. My general attitude improved overnight. In the first 3 1/2 months I lost 28 1/2 kilos , my insulin requirements had to be reduced to 18 units a day and 2 injections and my life and my family’s lives were completely changed because of these products. Thank you Herbalife. MARGARET FERGUSON, Jindalee, Brisbane

SHELLY S. Subject: Diabetes and Weight Loss I am a teacher. It takes a lot of energy to be a teacher. I have been a diabetic for over 25 years. After using Herbalife products a little over 60 days, I was able to cut my insulin dosage by 2/3 of normal usage, my energy level went from 3 or 4 to 8 -10 and, best of all, it stays constantly at that amount. I went off of eight other prescription medications, lost 26 pounds and 4 dress sizes, 10 inches in a little over 2-1/2 months. I have stayed consistent at that weight. I have no more abdominal bloating, belching or cramping. I lived with an inflamed intestinal tract for years. I don't have any of the problems I had before starting Herbalife - no migraine headaches, no leg, feet or back pain, & no show of any symptoms for candida. I use all the products and they are absolutely amazing. I have been using Herbalife now for over 2-1/2 years and maintained the above results.COMMENT: The products definitely helped level out my blood sugar levels

KAY H. Subject: Diabetes and Weight Loss I've been taking Herbalife for over a year now. I was a Real Estate agent for over 10 years. I don't know how I sold anything because I was an insulin dependant diabetic for over 25 years. I was a regular couch potato most of the time, doing a lot of sleeping; and I had a lot of pain in my legs. In 30 days I dropped my insulin dosage by 70%; after 50 days, I was off all medications - insulin, heart medication, everything. It's been over a year or so now that I have not taken any medications whatsoever. I dropped 16 dress sizes, went from a size 24-1/2 to an 8, and I lost 114 inches and 102 lbs.I also have a son, Pat, who was a diabetic and had been diabetic for 3 years. In 30 days, that boy was off all his insulin. We take all the products in the Ultimate Program in the beginning and I now take ALL of the products. I just love Herbalife. I feel fantastic. I can dance all night and I have a lot more energy than I've ever had. My entire family has lost 382 lbs. - this includes my brothers, sisters, sons and myself.Another wonderful benefit is that everyone's cholesterol is down to normal. I have a lot of clients on the program who are diabetic and I really work closely with them. They have just done beautifully. Many of them are off their insulin, too and that's what really makes me feel good!

JOHNDecrease InsulinI have a customer and his name is John. He's been on the ADVANCED PROGRAM for the last 6 weeks. Not only did he lose 22 lbs and 37 inches so far, but he got his blood work back from his doctor and for the first time in 24 years, his blood work is completely normal, completely what's in the control range for diabetics and he was also able to radically decrease the amount of insulin he was taking.

MAUREENSubject: "Pox" marks left by years of insulin injections - gone!After using insulin twice a day, sometimes 3 times per day, for over 20 some years, it left "pox" markings that I absolutely hated. I inject myself in the upper part of my thigh and my butt because that's the one area where a lot of people would not see and I tried the Body Toning Crème and only after 3 containers of that and using the Cell-U-loss, the cellulite appearance was totally gone and has remained gone ever since then. I'm thrilled to death because that was something I thought I was going to have to live with for the rest of my life, so I'm so impressed with that, I want to show it to ladies because they are thrilled and it shows them that if this is what it could do for me after all these years of pox markings, think of what it could do to their cellulite appearance.

CONNIE Subject: Diabetes I'm a diabetic. I've been on the Advanced Program, Herbalifeline for 3 weeks. I was taking 80 units of insulin in the morning and 40 at night. I've dropped that amount to 40 in the morning and 10 at night. I've also reduced my Blood Pressure medication. I've lost 12 pounds. My energy went sky high, I'm able to do a lot of things I couldn't do before, as simple as making a bed. I hope to lose all the weight I need to lose and feel great!

DEB M.Subject: Diabetes, Weight Loss and Health Improvements I'd like to share a real amazing testimony from a customer that I recently got started on the products. This just goes to show how amazing these products really are. Her name is Alice and she weighed 328 pounds. So she has over 150 pounds that she wants to lose. She's had surgeries to try to lose weight. Both gastric bi-pass and her stomach stapled. Neither one of those worked. I have my customers fill out a questionnaire and one of the questions is: Are you serious about losing weight now? And Why? She was serious and her "why" I'm going to read it word for word: "I would like to live - not just take up space. I can't move. My body is failing me. I'm failing it." She also has arthritis, chronic fatigue, depression, diabetes, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, lower back pain, migraines, and sleep disorders. As you can see she had a lot of medical problems.

Three weeks now and she has lost over 25 pounds. She has been able to drop her insulin. Her blood sugar level is staying stable. She had knee surgery done to repair some ligaments and they were afraid that they wouldn't be able to do the surgery because her diabetes would be too out of control from fasting the night before. From using the products her blood sugar was so on that they wondered if she even took insulin! The surgery went great! The next day she was able to stand on her leg already and she only used the pain medication for one day. She is off her sleeping pills so she doesn't spend half the day trying to wake up from those. She's doing just great. She feels like a new person already. It's really neat to see such dramatic changes and how awesome these products are. I just wanted to pass this on.

DEBBIE R Subject: Type I Diabetes My son David is a Type I diabetic. That's the kind that is not due to your diet it's because your pancreas totally quits and doesn't produce insulin at all. So he is going to have to take insulin his whole life. He's been able to cut his insulin level in half in the last month since he's been taking the products. I don't have the numbers, but that is pretty spectacular. He is taking 3 shots a day and quite a bit of insulin trying to keep everything regulated so cutting it in half is a big thing for him.

MARKUS K.Subject: Diabetes, Hypothyroidism, and 100-pound Weight Loss I used to suffer from fatigue terribly (always tired), and had been suffering from Hypothyroidism for most of my life (since 2 yrs old), but it was under control with medication. However in the last eight years, even with medication, almost every symptom plagued me, and I was over 316 lbs. I have lost over 118 lbs and 18 inches since March 7th 2000, and I have energy back again; like when I was a teenager! And it has been helping me keep my Diabetes in check without insulin so far! I love these Products!

SUSAN W.Subject: Diabetes and High Blood Pressure I just wanted to share a testimonial. On September 22nd I went in for my yearly physical. I went basically to find out how I was doing with my diabetes and my high blood pressure and possibly to see if I had a Thyroid problem. Since I've been on the products on a consistent basis I've lost a total of 90 pounds and 22 inches. I'm totally blown away! I just wanted to pass that on. The Physicians were telling me that I'm doing so well with my weight loss and they're so excited about what I'm doing that they actually asked me for the Herbalife Catalog! They are so excited for me that I'm losing this weight.

I had the glucose diabetes during my pregnancy and it continued after having my first child. The diabetes basically was controlling my body and I was constantly gaining the weight and not feeling very good.Since I've been on the products I've had a total life changing experience. I have more energy. I'm actually

stabilizing my blood sugar with the Cellular Nutrition and also my high blood pressure has decreased. I no longer have high blood pressure according to my last doctor visit. They also did the blood work. I was totally amazed by what they had told me. The doctor thought for sure that this time around I would possibly become insulin dependent. They did run the tests and everything was fine. The Thyroid came back negative. So I have no signs of Thyroid problems. My doctors and I are totally blown away! My blood work came back with no signs of diabetes! I'm so much more active! I'm doing great! I stabilized my blood sugar completely. They told me to continue to do what I'm doing with the Cellular Nutrition. Continue to lose some more weight and come back to see them in another six months. I just wanted to pass this wonderful news on! I'm so happy and wanted to pass this on to you.

Dr. Mickey, Chiropractor Subject: Blood Sugar, Cholesterol, and Triglycerides About a year ago, I went to my family doctor and had some blood tests done. My triglycerides were 1425 and they should be 200 or less, my cholesterol was 465 and should have been 200 or less and basically my sugar was out of control.

I received the tape in the mail about opportunities in the 90's and I really wasn't interested in the business, but I was interested in losing some weight and feeling better. I called and my sponsor sent me the products. Within one week, I lost 4 pounds. This doesn't seem like a lot, but I could get into pants I hadn't been able to get into for a year.

I knew I was losing body fat and things were going wonderful. I also got my office staff, offered them the opportunity to go on a diet, to lose weight and get on the products . . . and they did.

Within 2 months, I lost 20 lbs. At my last blood test, my cholesterol was just a little over 200 and my triglycerides were way down from the 1425. My blood sugar is much better controlled.

We have well over 100 people on the product, many diabetics, who are doing very well. I have seen their blood pressure come down, insulin usage come down and they are just looking 100% better. When the people come in, they either tell me or we can take their blood pressure. We see how much that improved and we see how much better they feel and they tell us how much better they feel.

Just the other night, there was a lady who told me that her doctor had just been begging her to go on insulin and she didn't want to. She got on the Herbalife products - in two months, she lost 20-25 pounds and last time she had her sugar checked, it was about 140. Her doctor said that it was absolutely wonderful. She didn't need to go on insulin and she should just keep doing what she's doing. My family and I are on all the products. We're very happy and feel fantastic!

Comments of Dr. Terry I had a personal reason for getting involved with the products. I wanted to lose some weight and I have a cousin, Maureen, who is diabetic. I had gained 25 pounds because I wasn't eating, not because I was overeating. My body was storing fat because I was starving myself. I was working too hard and going to bed at night after eating a light supper and my body was just craving nutrition and so it stored fat. Then I found Herbalife.

One of the products I want to talk about first is the Formula 1. At first, I was upset because fructose was the first thing I saw on the label and everybody knows fructose is sugar. I thought, "How can these people sell this product with fructose?" Because of the stories I had heard about the results of people on the products, I decided to go to a training school and met someone who told me that there was as much fructose in a serving of Formula 1 as in half of an apple.

I knew that even a knowledgeable diabetic or a hypoglycemic, if they know how to handle the diet, could certainly have half of an apple. That's when I decided to see if this product works. I chose Maureen to be my first patient - she is my cousin and I took a personal interest to get her on the products. I didn't do it with the intention of having anything to do with her insulin intake because I didn't know it was going to affect that. I just wanted her

to feel better and she was having trouble losing weight because she can't cut calories. A diabetic, once they put on the weight, has trouble getting it off because the blood sugar drops too low if they cut the calories.

With the Formula 1, if you combine that with the Formula 2 and 3, you have all the nutrients and the absorption that the body needs daily. Approximately 4000 calories worth of today's food are required to get all the nutrition the body needs. Now what would we look like if we consumed 4000 calories in one day? One shake gives you approximately 2000 calories worth of nutrients but you are only getting 120 calories if you take it in water or 200 calories if you take it in juice with some fruit added and it tastes delicious! It can also be taken with milk, but we found if people slow down on their weight loss and have intestinal discomfort, the dairy products are usually causing that.

There is 9 grams of protein in a serving of Formula 1 that is very easily digested by everyone because of the added Aminogen. Aminogen is a plant enzyme that helps digest proteins. There is less than 1 gram of fat per 2 TLBSPs. Now personally, I use 3-5 tablespoons of Formula 1 because I love the taste of it and I want the extra nutrients. When Maureen first got on the Formula 1, she tried to take a little bit after each meal to maintain the blood sugar levels and that worked very well. Now she's able to just replace meals with it just like everybody else does. It's high in fiber, high in minerals and amino acids and has all the nutrients and trace nutrients that can be found in the herbs that are in it. This gives us the maximum biological ratio that our body needs, so our body feels more satisfied because we are utilizing more of the product. The metabolism is going to remain high and the protein ratio helps create a more constant blood sugar level. The product includes 5 thermojetic herbs so that helps increase the metabolism and also helps burn off excess fat.

Do not worry if you're underweight or maintaining weight, you still take the product because the herbs are then used by the body as nutrients. It contains medium chain tryglycerides, the good kind, that help with elimination of toxins. It also contains beneficial bacterial cultures and does not have to be refrigerated. There is no refined sugars in the product. If you heat the Formula 1, like put it in coffee or tea and heat it, you destroy the enzymes, so you would have to take an aminogen. You could add to oatmeal AFTER cooking, however.

The YELLOW (currently only available in the USA) is another product I want to mention. This helps increase the metabolism while you sleep but not to the point that it keeps you up at night. It is non-stimulating, so it helps you burn fat for 24 hours. It contains the GTF Chromium and the Chromium Polynicotinate, the GTF means Glucose Tolerance Factor, so, of course that means controlling the blood sugar and Chromium Polynicotinate helps maintain the muscle integrity. It also contains Garcinia Cambogia which is an herb known to cut mucus in the body and break down fat. So HYPOGLYCEMICS have found good results in taking one or two tablets 15-20 minutes BEFORE meals and at bedtime. DIABETICS seem to get better results if they take 1 or 2 tablets AFTER meals and at bedtime. Each person has to follow what their level is and how it works well for them.

None of these products are meant to take the place of medication. You hear some phenomenal things here, but what you have to realize is that if these people don't have to take medication because they got on these products, it's because their bodies were deficient in nutrients and once the nutrients were introduced, then the body was able to do what it was supposed to do. Check with your doctor, pay attention to your blood sugar levels.

Two other products I want to mention are Celluloss and Body Contouring Crème(currently only available in the USA). Celluloss helps remove the excess fluids in the body and helps reduce the appearance of cellulite. The Thermojetics Body Contouring Crème helps give the skin a sleek, smooth, youthful appearance and combines the benefit of the herbs with the thermos which are patented and helps break down the cells and release the fat so it helps get rid of the appearance of the cellulite and contains no mineral oil or animal products so it's very healthy for the skin.

Crohns Disease - Sheila FlintI got started on Cellular Nutrition to lose weight , but I had a bowel problem that was getting progressively worse and despite the fact that I had continual diarrhoea, I was still gaining weight by continually binge eating. I was told cellular Nutrition might change my eating habits, but to start with I was very skeptical. However, when I looked at the targeted products, I decided to try them. I had been to a specialist and told I had "Crohns Disease", there was no cure and I would have to go onto cortisone and other steroid drugs or it could turn to bowel cancer. I decided "NO! I didn’t want to go down that path, so I chose to take the "Herbalife Supplement Pack". I powered into it, tripling the dose, and stopped taking Cellular Nutrition for one month to do this. After one month I went back on the Cellular Nutrition, but continued to take triple doses of Supplement Pack for 3 months. I then went back for another colonoscopy and was told I was in remission. I have maintained my remission, but I did do some research into allergies because my body was completely dehydrated I had acquired some allergy to dairy and wheat products, but with continual use of Cellular Nutrition the allergies are gone, and as a bonus I lost two stone and two dress sizes , and I feel great! Thanks Herbalife! Sheila Flint

Migraines - Mick I am a Transport Operator and have tried a lot of ways to lose weight, none of which worked very good until I replied to a business opportunity and stumbled on to this great product called "Cellular Nutrition". I gave it a go and to my amazement I lost 2kg in the first 26 hrs. In total I’ve lost 14 kgs , but more amazingly I have suffered with migraines very severely for about 15-20 yrs. Since being on "Cellular Nutrition" I have not had a migraine or any of the nasty symptoms that go along with them. I feel great thanks to "Herbalife"

UNDERACTIVE THYROID Vivian - This hopefully will give you some encouragement to stick with your program. My sister who is now 64 yrs. young had 80% of her thyroid removed at age 16, so she has only 20% use of her thyroid. After 44 yrs of thyroid medications and frustration trying to lose and keep off weight she hesitantly tried our products. Her first month she lost 1 lb. and 0 inches. All we could do was to remind her that she would have to commit to her program for it to work successfully. Month 2 she lost 3 lbs and 3 inches. Month 3 she dropped 6 more lbs. and 2 1/2 inches and all of a sudden as if by a miracle her 4th month she lost 16 lbs. and 7 inches of body fat. By the end of the 12th month she had lost 68 lbs. and 35 inches of fat! Best part is she has kept that off and loves and recommends the products to everyone. GOOD LUCK and NEVER GIVE UP on yourself or these life changing products.

M.S. Multiple Sclerosis - Rick It is the little things that make a big difference for Rick who is suffering from Multiple Sclerosis . I would like to share what has happened to my father, Rick, who was diagnosed with having Multiple Sclerosis (MS) in 1984 and wheel chair bound since 1985, since he has been using the Cellular Nutrition products. My hope is that if there are others who have a loved one suffering in similar ways you may be encouraged to take a very good look at what these products have done for him. It was not until I asked my mother to detail the changes that we really realised how much of a difference this has made to him. It was only 2 weeks into the program that we first noticed some improvement but now, after 18months on the basic cellular nutrition together with Herbal Aloe juice, Florafibre, Tang Kuei and NRG. These are the results. * improved balance * reduced fatigue * less depression * improved attention span * he does not choke on his food anymore * improved small motor skills like picking things up with his fingers * not constipated anymore * sleeping better * can now sit unaided (not propped up with pillows) * less urinary tract infections * more control of his bladder * great reduction in body twitching, shaking and spasms. All of these things have been a huge improvement in his everyday life style. Basic daily routines like shaving, dressing and showering he can now perform unaided which you can imagine is a blessing for my mother. Although these products are simply power packed nutrition and we are not able to make any medical claims we have just watched as my dad has gone from strength to strength. Thank you Herbalife for making such a difference in our lives. Brad Smith, Maroochydore, 07.54488858, smithbt@hotmail.com

Mark is 49 years old with Multiple Sclerosis. Mark owned his own construction company, which was growing into a successful business when he started having his 1st. symptoms of MS in 1978. His symptoms gradually worsened and he remained undiagnosed until 1991 when he had an MRI radiology test. By the time Mark was introduced to Herbalife in November 2000, his doctors had him on $1900.00 worth of prescription drugs per month and he had been depending on a wheelchair for 3 months! His future looked dim and hopeless. Mark and his wife Becky, heard about Herbalife. Mark started on the products for weight loss and nutrition, as he had gained 15 lbs due to lack of exercise. Within 2 months, Mark lost the 15 lbs and was strong enough to get out of the wheelchair and walk! This was truly a miracle, so Becky looked into Herbalife’s targeted products to help Mark with the rest of his symptoms. He took Ocular Defense for his nearly blind vision and Herbalifeline to improve his circulation. At times Mark didn’t even recognize his own wife; he took NRG so he could mentally focus. Then after seeing improvements in his health, he began to add Herbalife’s super antioxidants: Schizandra, Rose Ox and Triple Berry Complex plus Aloe Drink to ensure absorption and multiply the effectiveness. It Worked!!! Mark was walking on his own, getting stronger everyday without all the side effects of his prescription medications and is now performing major building renovations on their home.Becky and Mark thank their sponsors every day for introducing them to the amazing Herbalife products and to Mark Hughes (the Founder of Herbalife). These products have been life changing

Kate V. of England Multiple Sclerosis, Depression, fatigue, muscle and feet problemsHi ...My name is Kate and before Herbalife, I had severe fatigue, sensory problems in both of my feet, and muscle weakness in all of my extremities. Because of the state of my health, I was suffering from severe depression. This was all due to an exacerbation of Multiple Sclerosis. I had also gained about 20 + pounds from being on steroids and being physically inactive. I got started on the products because my only alternative was taking medication for my fatigue, which could possibly, over time, damage my liver and my kidneys without healing the problem. I knew there had to be a better solution!! I felt a difference the very next day! I had energy when I woke up the following morning and actually felt like getting out of bed and getting into my day! My husband said that I "looked" healthier!!By the end of the third week, I had regained normal feeling in my right foot; my fatigue symptoms and depression were completely gone; my energy levels went through the ceiling and I was much more mentally alert and able to function much more efficiently in everything I did. Before I reached the 2nd month on the products, I had regained the feeling in my left foot as well, and all of my symptoms are gone.Now I’m back to normal, with more energy than I had before I got ill. I can go for long walks with my husband, climbing hills, walking through the countryside. I can go shopping in the town centre on my own. This wasn’t possible before Herbalife; I simply didn’t have the strength to do it.And the best part is I lost 10 pounds and 3 inches off my waist and still going without losing muscle and strength! That’s a big thing for people with MS and weight loss! It’s very hard to maintain your strength and stamina while losing weight. I am feeling stronger every single day and "I Love it!".I feel great, and you could too

Irritable Bowel - Anne-Marie Smidt I'm originally from Denmark. I have suffered for 32 years with irritable bowel problems which for me meant I was severely constipated, had constant pain in my tummy and this over the years caused depression . Within 4 weeks of using these wonderful products my bowels became regular and the whirring painful stomach subsided. I have found the Herbalaloe, which I dilute and mix in juice, and the Thermojetics tea which with my problems I find I need to take at room temperature have been just wonderful. I use the Advanced Program with the Aloe and as a bonus I have been using it for weight loss and by 9 weeks I had lost 5 kg but best of all 12 cm off my hips! These products have changed my life! Anne-Marie Smidt

Coeliac - Karen Schoenfisch Before I found these products I was diagnosed with a condition called "coeliac " which meant that my body could not digest gluten found in wheat, barley, rye, oats and yeast - eating anything containing the products was destroying my body. Even though I eliminated these products and many more, I found my health didn't improve. I was living on 1-2 boxes of painkillers a week. Literally, I was a nervous and physical wreck, hardly coping with

life. Even though I still suffered with continual diarrhoea I began putting on weight and went from a size 12 to a 16. I felt depressed about the way I looked and felt.

The turn around came when I found that I only had two outfits that fitted me and I decided I was not going to go out and purchase a size 16 wardrobe - no way. I could feel the difference with these products, I just couldn't believe my stamina came surging back and I no longer needed to sleep in till 10.00am or have my afternoon nap. It was truly amazing!

My general well being has improved dramatically and many of my problems have disappeared. I have been able to slowly reintroduce the foods that I was previously allergic to back into my diet.In weeks I dropped from a size 16 down to a size 11, lost 7 kilos and centimeters from my hips and thighs. I love these products

Aspartame Kills!WORLD ENVIRONMENTAL CONFERENCE and the MULTIPLE SCLEROSIS FOUNDATION F.D.A. ISSUING FOR COLLUSION WITH MONSANTO Article written by Nancy MarkleI have spent several days lecturing at the WORLD ENVIRONMENTAL CONFERENCE on "ASPARTAME marketed as 'NutraSweet', 'Equal', and 'Spoonful"'. In the keynote address by the EPA, they announced that there was an epidemic of multiple sclerosis and systemic lupus, and they did not understand what toxin was causing this to be rampant across the United States. I explained that I was there to lecture on exactly that subject.

When the temperature of Aspartame exceeds 86 degrees F, the wood alcohol in ASPARTAME coverts to formaldehyde and then to formic acid, which in turn causes metabolic acidosis. (Formic acid is the poison found in the sting of fire ants). The methanol toxicity mimics multiple sclerosis; thus people were being diagnosed with having multiple sclerosis in error. The multiple sclerosis is not a death sentence, where methanol toxicity is.In the case of systemic lupus, we are finding it has become almost as rampant as multiple sclerosis, especially Diet Coke and Diet Pepsi drinkers. Also, with methanol toxicity, the victims usually drink three to four 12 oz. Cans of them per day, some even more. In the cases of systemic lupus, which is triggered by ASPARTAME, the victim usually does not know that the aspartameis the culprit The victim continues its use aggravating the lupus to such a degree, that sometimes it becomes life threatening. When we get people off the aspartame, those with systemic lupus usually become asymptomatic. Unfortunately, we can not reverse this disease.

On the other hand, in the case of those diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, (when in reality, the disease is methanol toxicity), most of the symptoms disappear. We have seen cases where their vision has returned and even their hearing has returned. This also applies to cases of tinnitus.

During a lecture I said "If you are using ASPARTAME (NutraSweet, Equal, Spoonful, etc.) and you suffer from fibromyalgia symptoms, spasms, shooting pains, numbness in your legs, cramps, vertigo, dizziness, headaches, tinnitus, joint pain, depression, anxiety attacks, slurred speech, blurred vision, or memory loss -- you probably have ASPARTAME DISEASE!" People were jumping up during the lecture saying, "I've got this, is it reversible?" It is rampant. Some of the speakers at my lecture even were suffering from these symptoms. In one lecture attended by the Ambassador of Uganda, he told us that their sugar industry is adding aspartame! He continued by saying that one of the industry leader's son could no longer walk - due in part by product usage!

We have a very serious problem. Even a stranger came up to Dr. Espisto (one of my speakers) and myself and said, '1 Could you tell me why so many people seem to be coming down with MS? 11 During a visit to a hospice, a nurse said that six of her friends, who were heavy Diet Coke addicts, had all been diagnosed with MS. This is beyond coincidence. Here is the problem. There were Congressional Hearings when aspartame was included in 100 different products. Since this initial hearing, there have been two subsequent hearings, but to no avail. Nothing as been done. The drug and chemical lobbies have very deep pockets. Now there are over 5,000 products containing this chemical, and the PATENT HAS EXPIRED!!!!! At the time of this first hearing, people were going blind. The methanol in the aspartame converts to formaldehyde in the retina of the eye. Formaldehyde is grouped in the same class of drugs as cyanide and arsenic--DEADLY POISONS!!! Unfortunately, it just takes longer to quietly kill, but it is killing people and causing all kinds of neurological problems.

Aspartame changes the brain's chemistry. It is the reason for severe seizures. This drug changes the dopamine level in the brain. Imagine what this drug does to patients suffering from Parkinson's Disease. This drug also causes Birth Defects.

There is absolutely no reason to take this product. It is NOT A DIET PRODUCT!!! The Congressional record said, "It makes you crave carbohydrates and will make you FAT". Dr. Roberts stated that when he got patients off aspartame, their average weight loss was 19 pounds per person. The formaldehyde stores in the fat cells, particularly in the hips and thighs.

Aspartame is especially deadly for diabetics. All physicians know what wood alcohol will do to a diabetic. We find that physicians believe that they have patients with retinopathy, when in fact, it is caused by the aspartame. The aspartame keeps the blood sugar level out of control, causing many patients to go into a coma. Unfortunately, many have died. People were telling us at the Conference of the American College of Physicians, that they had relatives that switched from saccharin to an aspartame product and how that relative had eventually gone into a coma. Their physicians could not get the blood sugar levels under control. Thus, the patients suffered acute memory loss and eventually coma and death.

Memory loss is due to the fact that aspartic acid and phenylalanine are neurotoxic without the other amino acids found in protein. Thus it goes past the blood brain barrier and deteriorates the neurons of the brain. Dr. Russell Blaylock, neurosurgeon, said, "The ingredients stimulates the neurons of the brain to death, causing brain damage of varying degrees." Dr. Blaylock has written a book entitled "EXCITOTOXINS: THE TASTE THAT KILLS" (Health Press 1-800-643-2665). Dr. H.J. Roberts, diabetic specialist and world expert on aspartame poisoning, has also written a book entitled "DEFENSE AGAINST ALZHEIMER'S DISEASE" (1-800-814-9800). Dr. Roberts tells how aspartame poisoning is escalating Alzheimer's Disease, and indeed it is. As the hospice nurse told me, women are being admitted at 30 years of age with Alzheimer's Disease. Dr. Blaylock and Dr. Roberts will be writing a position paper with some case histories and will post it on the Internet. According to the Conference of the American College of Physicians, "We are talking about a plague of neurological diseases caused by this deadly poison."

Dr. Roberts realized what was happening when aspartame was first marketed. He said "his diabetic patients presented memory loss, confusion, and severe vision loss". At the Conference of the American College of Physicians, doctors admitted that they did not know. They had wondered why seizures were rampant (the phenylalanine in aspartame breaks down the seizure threshold and depletes serotonin, which causes manic depression, panic attacks, rage and violence).

Just before the Conference, I received a FAX from Norway, asking for a possible antidote for this poison because they are experiencing so many problems in their country. This poison is now available in 90 PLUS countries worldwide. Fortunately, we had speakers and ambassadors at the Conference from different nations who have pledged their help. We ask that you help too. Print this article out and warn everyone you know. Take anything that contains aspartame back to the store. Take the "NO ASPARTAME TEST" and send us your case history.

I assure you that MONSANTO, the creator of aspartame, knows how deadly it is. They fund the American Diabetes Association, American Dietetic Association, Congress, and the Conference of the American College of Physicians. The New York Times, on November 15, 1996, ran an article on how the American Dietetic Association takes money from the food industry to endorse their products. Therefore, they can not criticize any additives or tell about their link to MONSANTO. How bad is this? We told a mother who had a child on NutraSweet to get off the product. The child was having grand mal seizures every day. The mother called her physician, who called the ADA, who told the doctor not to take the child off the NutraSweet. We are still trying to convince the mother that the aspartame is causing the seizures. Every time we get someone off of aspartame, the seizures stop. If the baby dies, you know whose fault it is, and what we are up against. There are 92 documented symptoms of aspartame, from coma to death. The majority of them are all neurological, because the aspartame destroys the nervous system.

Aspartame Disease is partially the cause to what is behind some of the mystery of the Dessert Storm health problems. The burning tongue and other problems discussed in over 60 cases can be directly related to the consumption of an aspartame product. Several thousand pallets of diet drinks were shipped to the Dessert Storm troops. (Remember heat can liberate the methanol from the aspartame at 86 degrees F). Diet drinks sat in the 120 degree F. Arabian sun for weeks at a time on pallets. The service men and women drank them all day long. All of their symptoms are identical to aspartame poisoning. Dr. Roberts says "consuming aspartame at the time of conception can cause birth defects". The phenylalanine concentrates in the placenta, causing mental retardation, according to Dr. Louis Elsas, Pediatrician Professor - Genetics, at Emory University in his testimony before Congress.

In the original lab tests, animals developed brain tumors (phenylalanine breaks down into DXP, a brain tumor agent). When Dr. Espisto was lecturing on aspartame, one physician in the audience, a neurosurgeon, said, "when they remove brain tumors, they have found high levels of aspartame in them".

Stevia, a sweet food, NOT AN ADDITIVE, which helps in the metabolism of sugar, which would be ideal for diabetics, has now been approved as a dietary supplement by the F.D.A. For years, the F.D.A. has outlawed this sweet food because of their loyalty to MONSANTO.

If it says "SUGAR FREE" on the label-- DO NOT EVEN THINK ABOUT IT!!!! Senator Howard Hetzenbaum wrote a bill that would have warned all infants, pregnant mothers and children of the dangers of aspartame. The bill would have also instituted independent studies on the problems existing in the population (seizures, changes in brain chemistry, changes in neurological and behavioral symptoms). It was killed by the powerful drug and chemical lobbies, letting loose the hounds of disease and death on an unsuspecting public. Since the Conference of the American College of Physicians, we hope to have the help of some world leaders. Again, please help us too. There are a lot of people out there who must be warned, please let them know this information.

Dr. Katzin on MS 5/1/02 John And Sandy Kendrick - 20 May 2003 9:56 PM QUESTION: Which products and which dosages would you suggest that an MS patient could use to help alleviate the symptoms?

DR. KATZIN: Multiple Sclerosis, again, this is a condition which is not completely understood. What we do know is the nervous system spontaneously develops inflammation and these points of inflammation eventually become hardened or sclerotic. It happens multiple places in the body and hence it's called multiple sclerosis. Some people it's a very mild disease. You can have one bad attack, often in the eyes is how it begins, and you rarely get another one and you kind of notice some things throughout your life. Usually it burns out. Sometimes it's much more fast track. What we find is that dietary fish oil and antioxidants have been shown to have a beneficial effect on the nervous system, particularly the nervous system and some of the damage that may occur in MS. So the program beginning with just basic cellular nutrition, 1 2 and Cell Activator ought to have a high component of dietary fish oil, up to 9 Herbalifeline a day, a component of antioxidants, 6 Schizandra and 2 RoseOX™ a day. And then I would add just to make sure that the digestive system functions well and can absorb all this, I would add a little Aloe to each meal. And I think you'll find that with that balance of proteins and micro nutrients and these particular dietary fish oils, as well as the antioxidants you see the effect that you want. This is one of these interesting things where all dietary fish oils are not the same. In terms of the nervous system, the dietary fish oil that's important is DHA, just a complicated name for a very highly unsaturated fatty acid. Where the cardiovascular system is concerned is EPA. And you'll see fish oils in the store called max EPA or any of these things which seems to have huge amounts of this EPA, much more than we would put in any tablet of ours, almost bordering on medicinal, and these may be very beneficial for your heart but they will not effect the nervous system in the same way. This is where Herbalifeline becomes a very interesting product that it works on multiple parts of the body because it is a full component, a full spectrum dietary fish oil.
