Debra N. Jones writes: My mother. Ruth Neal. is an 81-year-old diabetic and has been insulin dependent for more than 30 years. Due to the disease. she has lost the peristaltic function of her digestive system causing severe reflux and constipation. She took Propulsid for approximately ten years, until FDA placed restrictions on it. Additionally she was taking Metamucil twice per day. Surfax stool softener every night and prunes for breakfast every morning. Because of the restrictions placed on the Propulsid, her doctor took her off that medication and put her on Prilosec. The Prilosec did not work. She became compacted requiring enemas to get her bowels to move and got really sick every morning with chronic indigestion. My mother was afraid to eat in the mornings because she became so ill.

Her internist sent her to a gastroenterologist. After a series of CAT scans, x-rays, and other tests, he prescribed Pepcid 20mg, Reglan 10mg and a prescribed laxative, Miralax. He also told her to continue taking a tablespoon of Metamucil twice per day, at least eight cooked prunes each morning, the Surfax in the evening, at least 64 ounces of water per day ~ and lots of raw fruits and vegetables. With all of this, my Mom was still getting sick in the morning at least two or three times per week and still could not have regular bowel movements.

My mother also suffers from chronic hypertension caused by excessive plaque in her arteries. On Thanksgiving Day, 1985, she had her first stroke and ten years later, she suffered her second stroke. Her average blood pressure was 160/90 even though she takes 420mg of Tiazac, 40mg of Accupril and 40mg of Lasix per day.

My husband and I joined Healing America in March. We immediately did our colon detox. My mother observed me taking the colon activator, using the bathroom regularly and then taking the 45 detox pills per day. She told me that she wanted to do this to see if it would help her. I was very skeptical. because she also had a mild heart attack in February and was hospitalized for a week. She insisted, therefore I said that I would order the products for her.

She took the colon activator for three days and did not see a difference in her movements. On the fourth day, WOW, she could not stay out of the bathroom and she was ecstatic. This was the first time in years that she had had a really good movement with no enema or pain. She proceeded with her six days of detoxification and did not experience any problems taking the pills. We followed up with the Ultrabiotic, Megazyme, Multiplex, and Collodial Minerals (now Alkamin) and six teaspoons of ground flaxseed each day. We discontinued the Metamucil and Miralax. Within a week, my mother's reflux problem had ceased and she continued to have at least one and some days two good bowel movements per day. After being on this regimen for about a month, I saw remarkable improvement in my mother's energy level and physical stamina.

Approximately two weeks later, she had an appointment with her cardiologist. He took her blood pressure and told her that it was 138/74. She could not believe it. My mother's words to him were, "I haven't had a blood pressure reading like that in years." He asked her what she was doing differently. I told him about the herbal products and he said to continue with them because oftentimes the herbs work (His home is Antigua).

We went to her internist for her routine visit last month and he could not believe my mother's blood pressure. He checked it twice. Her pressure was 144/78 on the first reading and 140/76 on the second reading. He said that he had not had a reading that low on my mother in 15 years. He also asked what we were doing differently. I showed him the products my mother is taking. He looked at the ingredients in the Ultrabiotic and Megazymes, then told me that he wanted more information on the products. He said that it was a good move on my part to put my mother on these products because there is not a prescription medicine that he could prescribe that had the same ingredients. He said that the Megazymes were especially helpful in replacing some of my mother's pancreatic enzymes.

He questioned Mom about her digestive problems. She told him that she had not been getting sick in the morning since she started taking the products. He took her off the Reglan and she is still doing well with no reflux or indigestion in the mornings.

One more tidbit. Mom had an infected bunion on her right foot that would not heal properly. She told me this past Sunday that for the first time in months, her shoe did not irritate her bunion. I looked at it. It is no longer swollen and ugly. It is healing.

Even though my Mom is far from being a healthy person, her blood pressure and blood sugar readings have improved; her reflux, indigestion and constipation problem is gone; her foot is healing and over all she is doing much better thanks to the nutritional supplements from Healing America.
