Hi, my name is Kathy Anderson and I want to update my testimony about the Noni. As I wrote before, I have several Chronic diseases, and started taking the Noni in hopes that I could feel better and find relief for the many symptoms I live with. Well, little did I know!! I can not believe the difference in my health in only one month!!! My Lupus symptoms are all but gone, no painful joints! The Epstein-Barr, Chronic Fatigue, Fibromyalgia symptoms are ALL totally relieved!!! I had Psoriasis on my scalp so bad, my whole scalp was covered and I was losing my hair. It is almost gone and my hair is growing back!! I have more energy than I know what to do with and feel WONDERFUL! I stay up all day now and do all sorts of things like I used to do. And, I know it is all because of the Noni Juice. I will take Noni everyday for as long as I live, and I think everyone should! I LOVE Noni! I am writing to thank you for the introduction to Noni and it's marvels. As you know, 2 years ago I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia (FMS) and Chronic Fatigue Immune Deficiency Syndrome (CFIDS). At the time of my diagnosis, I had been searching out answers to my physical problems for years by the time I was finally diagnosed. According to my doctors, my future was very uncertain, particularly around the area of my ability to continue to work and lead an active life. It was suggested that I consider giving up my job, and going on disability. As a small business owner, and a very active person of 38 years old at the time, this news was devastating, as was how I was feeling. Without going into extreme detail, my immune system was flat, and I was unable to fight off infections and pain In January of 1996, I was bedridden for 2 1/2 weeks, without the strength to stand at my kitchen counter and get a glass of water. The muscle pain had become so severe that I suffered spasms that nearly crippled me, and the fatigue was unbelievable. My mother moved from Florida to Chicago to be with me through this. She was a God send, as I wasn't able to grocery shop, cook, or maintain myself without help. Previous to my collapse, I had researched, called and visited "specialists" across the country. My medical bills and travel expenses were soaring. I did the traditional approaches, a variety of drugs to decrease pain, increase Serotonin production, as well as self-injecting Gamma Globalin, B-12, B-1 and B-6. Results were temporary. I then tried homeopathy, with some relief of pain, but continued fatigue. When I was finally able to return to work, it was for 2 hrs at a time, then 1/2 day. I still needed help preparing meals, etc. When I was finally able to work a full day, it was not without taking naps in my office both in the morning and afternoon. In October of 1996, my mother brought me a bottle of Noni after talking to you. I must admit that I took it very reluctantly, expecting no results. And, initially I didn't notice any. After much persuasion from my mother, I increased the amount of Noni that I was taking. The next thing I noticed was that my pain was decreasing. It was miraculous! Two weeks ago, I visited my local doctor. She was astonished at the change in me. We didn't do a lab work up at that time becaused I showed no physical signs of either illness. No swollen lymph glands could be detected, my lungs and heart were excellent, and I did not react physically to the muscle tests she performed. She was stunned and astonished. She asked me what I had been doing and I told her that I had stopped all injections and that I was drinking a product called Noni. Needless to say, she told me to continue, and she requested literature. Steve, thank you for the introduction to Noni, and your concern and follow-up. My life has been changed. I'll keep you posted as to the out come of my next blood and lab work! Keep spreading the word. God Bless you. Denise Watson I started taking Noni Juice approximately one month ago. Since that time I have more energy. On most days I usually get up earlier and go to bed later. I sleep deeper than I have since college days. I am 47 years old. One year ago I still had insomnia and blood sugar problems. When I woke up in the middle of the night I could not go back to sleep on many occasions. This would often be coupled with raging hunger pangs. I would have to have some protein food in the middle of the night just to get back to sleep. A good fiber supplement helped me a great deal with my sleep and hunger but it did not totally solve the problem. Now that I am on Noni, plus my fiber supplement, I do not usually get up at all during the night, not even for one bathroom trip. My legs are more limber now that in past years, and my post-nasal drainage is very much reduced; and I can "cheat" and eat foods (mainly dairy) that I am allergic to with less of a reaction since I started on Noni. Rosa Brown My name is Anna Redding. In 1977 when I became pregnant with my first child. I began to experience extreme fatigue. My doctor assured me that the fatigue was due to the pregnancy and that as soon as the baby was born, I would snap back. The fatigue however, continued after the birth of our son. Once again I was assured that once I quit nursing I'd regain my former level of energy. Before I quit nursing though, I became pregnant again and the fatigue increased. This pregnancy ended in a pre-mature birth and a C-section. This time I was told that it was normal to be tired and worn out after a major surgery and that I should rest as much as possible and that as my body healed my energy would return. After a year with no improvement I began seeking alternative medical help with Naturopaths and Chiropractors, etc. as I had also started to experience a great deal of pain. This pain had been diagnosed as rheumatoid arthritis by one MD and transient gout by another. Of course neither offered a cure, only pain medication. In 1987, after experiencing four miscarriages within a year, my ObGyn, suspecting a thyroid problem, sent me to an internist for tests. This resulted in a diagnosis of CFS (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome) and Fibromyalgia. I was then told there was no cure and no treatment. Unwilling to accept the possibility that I might go through life in this state of "walking death" I began seeking help from whatever source I could find. I saw Herbalists, more Naturopaths and Homeopathic Physicians, more MDs and Internists, CFS specialists and Allergists. I even went to a prominent doctor at Oregon Health Sciences University once a week for several months for intravenous DMSO treatments. I never experienced any significance of permanent help or relief. Finally after several years of this, I had almost given up hope that anything was going to help. With my body in this continually weakening condition, I had also developed a chronic sinus infection which had left my nasal passages so sensitive that I'd end up with nose bleeds from blowing my nose. I had gotten a cold sore every month, coinciding with my menstrual cycle, for over a year and my digestive system was so ineffective that everything I ate gave me indigestion and heartburn. If I ate greasy foods I could count on having diarrhea within an hour. This was my condition when on September 9, 1996, my husband came home with a bottle of Noni Juice saying that it might help with my Chronic Fatigue. Not really believing that it would do me any good, I grudgingly begain takng 1 oz a day. After taking it for a week I couldn't honestly notice any difference in my energy level. However, in that week's time my sinus infection cleared up and the problems with digestion and diarrhea disappeared and in the six months since, I have not had one cold sore. Gradually, my energy level is increasing and I'm coming to have a greater sense of well being. During this time, I've experimented with taking different amounts of Noni Juice, somethimes taking up to 8 oz a day when I've been under greater amounts of stress (either physical or emotional). My recovery from CFS has not been overnight and may never be complete, but I do credit the progress that I've made in the past six months to Noni Juice and I would not give it up for anything! In the 15 or so years that I've had to deal with this condition, there has never been a product or a treatment that had any benefits that lasted more than three weeks except Noni Juice! I thank God daily that He has blessed my life with this incredible product. Anna L. Redding Both my wife and I have been on a search for several years for help with health problems that have plagued us. I have suffered with a compressed disk in my lower back. I was scheduled for surgery but chose to try every other avenue before having the surgery. The treatments I tried would be too long to list. Some helped a bit, most did not. My wife suffers from a muscle problem in her legs, a ruptured disk in her back and arthritis in her knees. When we heard about Noni Juice we decided to give it a three-month try. I began to notice a difference in about a month. After six weeks I was able to do things I had not done for years! I can now work in the garden, hike, hunt and chop firewood without hardly any pain. My wife began to notice improvement after about six weeks. She is now taking long walks for exercise and no longer suffers from severe leg and back pain. When this happened to us, we decided that other people had to hear about this wonderful product. I now spend a part of each day telling others by phone, mail, or personally about the wonderful results we have experienced from this amazing product. Helping others to enjoy a higher standard of health and building a very substantial income are two good reasons for doing this business. It just doesn't get much better than that! Brian had a severe fungus on his large toe, under his nail. He had surgery on several toes in October. He began 1 oz. Noni on November 10, 1996. Yesterday, while visiting the Podiatrist, the Dr. said, "The fungus has really cleared up. The medicine we gave you really worked." He told the Dr. He had forgotten to prescribe the fungus medicine. The doctor informed him that it wouldn't go away without treatment, so they told him he had been using Noni. The doctor said, "I guess we don't know everything." A few months ago I was diagnosed with cancer of the liver. I had decided years ago that if I ever had cancer, I would not have surgery, chemotherapy or radiation. I took Homeopathics and herbs faithfully. I took Noni like it ws going out of style, 8-12 ounces per day. Then, I was still a little nervous. I know a doctor in Mexico who has a remarkable history of Cancer cure, and cure of many other degenerative diseases. I made an appointment to see him just before Christmas. He ran tests and said to me that there was no sign of cancer. I let him know that I had been working hard. Carol Turley, Washington State My name is Pat Rizzi and I was diagnosed with MS (multiple sclerosis) in February of 1992. My original symptoms were tingling and numbness in my left hand and foot. Since that time, the same sensations appeared in my right hand and foot, but not as bad. My condition worsened so bad that I was unable to pick up my left leg. I walked by dragging my left foot behind me. I lost strength and dexterity in my left hand. The simplest things were difficult and next to impossible to do, such as turning on the water faucet, opening cabinets and drawers, and rolling down the car window. It was very frustrating and made me irritable and impatient. I could not pick up a glass in my left hand. I could not outstretch my fingers, they would simply droop. My vision begain to get blurry and at times got so bad I feared I might go blind. I have tried physical therapy, acupuncture and various medications. Nothing helped me. I also have arthritis, psoriasis and chronic bronchitis. Every winter I would get a cold that would last from two to three weeks. In late fall of 1996 a friend of mine introduced me to Noni. I started taking it on November 5. Three days after I started, my arthritis pain went away and has not returned. Within a few weeks I noticed I was walking better and can now raise my left leg up and step on to a curb. I have also had gradual improvement in my left hand. I can turn on the water faucet, open cabinets and drawers and roll down the car window with my left hand. I no longer have blurred vision, in fact, my vision seems sharper. I got a cold in January and it only lasted four days, and was not as severe as in the past. Recently I noticed the flaky patches of psoriasis on my arms were gone and are disappearing from my chest. I also have renewed vitality. I don't get tired anymore from simply making the bed, and do not need a nap every afternoon. I am not frustrated and irritable anymore. I take two ounces of Noni in the morning and again in the afternoon, and I owe all these imporvements to Noni and only in a few short months. I know the future looks bright for me. Kathy Wells Hi, my name is Charles and I'm not one usually given to testimonials, but the Noni juice has some remarkable healing qualities. I have had a re-occuring ear infection for the past 6 years. About 15 years ago I underwent massive radiation (through my right ear) for a brain tumor. Most of the bone was destroyed as a result (in my ear). I had had an open sore behind my ear, like a small hole. I applied the Noni on a daily basis for a week or so. The hole completely healed over, something the doctors couldn't achieve. I believe God gave us plants, roots, herbs, to help heal our bodies. What I am afraid we're losing is the knowledge of such handed down from generations of old. Charles Brandt I am a 62 year old female with severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease. I have been disabled for 7 years. This last year has really taken it's toll on me. My last pulmonary function test showed that I have only 20% of my air ways open. My lung specialist has told me he did not know what else to try on me, that he could send me up to the Mayo clinic maybe they would have something new out that he did not know about yet. I am using 4 bronchial dialators, I have been on and off of prednisone and at times is necessary that I use a nebulizer, plus other meds. The last few months, it has been almost impossible for me to shop without the use of an electric cart. I've just had some real tough times. Many days I would leave my mail in the box until someone came over and would bring it in for me. I have a lot of days where I just sit and it is too difficult to even move around in the house. I was introduced to noni at Christmas, it was given to me as a gift from my nephew. It has truly changed my life. My air ways are opening up and I am breathing much better. I am full of energy and I am out walking about 3 days a week. There is no need for an electric cart, I am able to walk through the stores and push a cart. I started noticing a change the first week I was on noni. I have been able to cut back on the use of my inhalers. I am so excited about this product. I will never be without it again. I feel like a new person. My friends cannot believe the difference in me, I am feeling better everyday. I still have my severe condition, but I can tell, something is happening and I am improving everyday. I am so much more comfortable, since being on noni. I sleep better, have energy that I have not had in years, my mental attitude is great. Thank you Nephew!! Thank you Noni!! Joann Barnes My name is Bernice Plumhoff, and I started on Noni Juice on November 1, 1996. I am 80 years old so I didn't know what to expect it would do, but nevertheless was anxious to try it. After having heart surgery and two hip replacements in the last two years, what was left in my body to help. I noticed more energy in a few days which I needed then. Later on I noticed my memory was much improved, and I don't get those ugly black and blue spots on my right wrist and up my arms anymore. My bladder is much improved; I now get up once during the night instead of two and three times. My planters wart under my right foot is completely gone. It was so sore and tender that I had to spend time filing it down and would take Tylenol so I could walk without pain. I had it cut out (froze) once. Then another doctor put a shot into it since I was told it was a virus. After both of these sessions the wart came back. I did spend about forty-five minutes at first and soaked Noni Juice on it, also put a soaked cotton ball and taped it up. My sore toe on my left foot was swollen with the next arthritic toe curved over it. I worked quite a while on that also putting Noni on. It's been worth it, as now it doesn't hurt and the swelling went away. I just put a corn pad in between the toes and that seems to be sufficient. I would not have been able to attend the wonderful meeting in Minneapolis January 24 & 25 if I hadn't felt as good as I did. For four days prior I had a gall baldder flare up, lost all my appetite. I took Noni Juice at least 5 or 6 times a day. It took only 4 days to get my appetite and strength back which enabled me to go along with my distributors to Minneapolis. I am also putting the Noni Juice on both of my eyes with cotton balls. I believe it has helped my good eye that is 20/30 vision and I'm hoping it will be 20/20 by Spring. My left eye has glaucoma and I'm blind in that eye. I don't know if anything will happen there, but it would be a real miracle if I could see out of it again. My middle finger had fungus in and around the corner, but it seems to be under control now from soaking it in Noni Juice for one-half hour daily. My feet are no longer sore now, and I can walk much better. I am so happy that Lil Johnson introduced and told me about Noni. It has made a great improvement in my daily life. Bernice Plumhoff I began using Noni Juice the last week in November, 1996, taking one ounce (2 tbsp.) a day. I am happy to report that the sinus problems I have had for many years have all cleared up. I also sleep much better now, thanks to Noni Juice! Arthur Holien I have been a Type I diabetic since I was a teenager, and I had my first of two kidney transplants 12 years ago. I would like to tell you what Noni Juice has done for me. I started taking Noni Juice Saturday, September 15, 1996. Almost immediately I felt I had more energy. I was sleeping less time at night, my sleep was more restful and I had more energy during the day. I have not experienced a temperature or touch sensation in my feet for more than 15 years because of Neuropathy. After taking Noni Juice for three days I felt coldness in my feet and I could also feel the carpet and tile on the floors in my home. I have had arthritis in my hands the past few years, which has been getting worse. The swelling in my fingers and hands has gone down and the redness around my joints has disappeared. I am not experiencing pain from the arthritis any more and I can even open jars again. I have blood work done regularly because of my transplants. For the first time in more than 12 years my creatinine level is normal. The doctors determine how your transplant is doing by the creatinine level in your blood. All the other levels that they test are also excellent and have not been this good since before my first transplant. The only thing I am doing differently is taking the Noni Juice. I am excited to be feeling so much better and I am thankful to the people that introduced me to Noni Juice. Ren P. Smith For years I have been in lots of pain from arthritis and had to roll out of bed slowly and climb up the furniture to stand up. Within 2-1/2 weeks of taking Noni Juice the severe pain in my back disappeared and I could stand up straight again. I went to my good friend Dot and pranced about the kitchen. "Can you believe this is me? I've even been out raking leaves with my daughter, and I can even jog again." Since then I have even shoveled snow, which I had not done in years! I also had a bad stomach that hurt whenever I ate anything. I actually got sick everytime I ate. I never quite knew for sure if it was an ulcer or what. The Noni Juice burned at first when I began taking it, but I kept right on because I had faith that it would help me, and I prayed that it would. My prayers were definitely answered, and now I can eat almost anything I choose, and I am PAIN FREE! Thank you for this wonderful product. I am telling everyone about it everyday. No one can stop me from sharing this wonderful life-giving, health-preserving Noni Juice (Morinda Citrifolia). Marion Lackey, Rockford, IL I am a produce manager at a local grocery in a small town in Arkansas. For over 2 years I have endured severe pain in both arms and hands from Carpel Tunnel Syndrome. My hands and fingers were so swollen, and the constant pain was so bad that I couldn't close my fingers. I was at the point where it required surgery, but I didn't want that, but it looked like the only way to get help. I also had severe leg pain from jumping out of airplanes as a parachutist in the VietNam era. Between the pain from my hands, fingers and arms, and the pain in my legs I wasn't getting much sleep. A lady came into the store one day, and I helped her carry out her groceries and some how we got talking about pain, so I told her what I had been living with -- PAIN. She immediately said, "I have something I believe will help you." She brought a bottle of Noni Juice back into the store, and I was told to drink 3 or 4 ounces right away and to drink 2 ounces before I went to bed. I didn't drink any right away like she said, but that night I took 2 ounces, and even that small amount worked as I slept like a baby for the first time in years. The next morning the pain was almost gone, and the swelling went down considerably. After the second day I was free from the pain in my legs, hands, and arms. I also had bad bronchitis, and even that is gone. I feel great and sleep great. Noni Juice has changed my life. "I will drink Noni til the day I die!" George Neff, Grassville, Arkansas I'm a 54 year old woman, grandmother to 9, with a body that was slowly falling apart. Because of being over weight for a long time, I was making myself ill. The more I got sick, the sicker I got. Because of Arthritis there were days when every move I made, my body reacted with PAIN. For years I took arthritis medicine. It made me sick, as all arthritis medicines do. So about a year ago I stopped the medicine. But the cartilage was gone in both knees. Ate up by my arthritis. In May of this year I had total knee replacement on the right knee. While in the hospital my diabetes went out of control. I took shots while in the hospital and 4 pills a day after returning home. Today's reading was -78 after 3 1/2 months on the Noni Juice. I also have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, high blood pressure, bladder infections, respiratory problems, asthma seizure disorder, and sleep apnea. I was on pills of all kinds and not sleeping at night, so I also took nerve pills to help me sleep. In July I was visiting my family in Indiana. My sister and mom started telling me I should try this new product, and about how they were feeling so much better, and less pain. I was there for several days and in a lot of pain. That's when I gave in and my life has made a complete turn around since then. It didn't happen over night. With so many things wrong with me, it has taken time. I was seeing my family doctor because of a car accident on 8/28/96. He hadn't seen me for a few months and saw a difference right away. All the test he ran were much better. Blood pressure, skin color, chest, and my bruising from the accident healed much faster. He was very interested in seeing what it would do for my Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. I told him how I was having less days of being so tired I couldn't walk across the room. Today I am not taking anything for pain, or using my cane much to walk. I am also able to keep up with all my grandkids, who just happen to live very close, and in and out all the time. As a bonus I lost 20 pounds. (First time in 30 years.) The weight loss it's self will help with everything I have wrong with me. I like feeling better, more energy, less stressful, and sleeping better at night. I am a much better person to be around. I am a TRUE "BELIEVER" of NONI JUICE. Jerry Lou Frieszell, Ohio We have a 17 month old granddaughter named Camry that has been very sick since she was 5 months old. She has been on an oxygen machine for a year. The extensive tests at the time she became ill revealed nothing. She weighed 10 1/2 pounds when born and at 17 months, was almost a skeleton, only weighs 16 pounds. She had never been strong enough to walk. She has been treated for pneumonia and asthma with no results. The doctors prescribed asthma treatments of albuteral three times a day just to ease her breathing. In July her parents brought her to Utah for 5 weeks and spent a lot of time at Primary Children's Hospital where she had surgery for a reflux problem. They were not given any encouragement on getting Camry off oxygen. They took her to the National Jewish Hospital in Denver Colo. which is the top respiratory hospital in the nation where they consulted with their top doctor. He felt she had contracted a virus at 5 months that had permanently scarred her airways and lungs. The air sacks in the bottom of her lungs were collapsed and they were retaining fluid. The doctor told them if they were lucky by the time Camry was 8 or 10 years old her airways might grow enough for her to be able to breath on her own. In October her grandpa heard a lady say she had been on oxygen for 2 years and had gotten off on Noni. He sent a bottle to Camry. Her mom was reluctant as Camry was on 7 medications including prednisone. With coaxing she gave her a spoonful twice a day in her bottle. After two weeks we got a message on our voice "Daddy your NONI juice is magic, Camry's respiratory specialist cut her oxygen 25% today." One week later we got another call "Daddy it isn't magic it's a miracle! We cut Camry's oxygen another 25%." Her 5th week on NONI she got off all her medication along with a further reduction in the need for oxygen. She is now gaining weight at a normal level. For the first time in a year she can fight a cold without antibiotics. There is no comparison to her energy level. She has started walking and we have high hopes it won't be long until Camry can run and play, like other children, without being tied to an oxygen machine. Thank you for blessing our granddaughter with Noni! Bonnie & Merlin Weekes I had not been out-of-the-house for a year and a half except to go to the doctor. It was all I could do to get from my bedroom to the living room with a walker. My neighbor told me about Noni and suggested I try it for my Lupus. After three days my energy level was greatly improved and I was able to use a cane. After ten days I no longer needed the cane and could walk around the apartment...take a shower without fear of exhaustion and actually do my own housework. It has been four weeks and I can go up and down stairs, get out for a evening of socializing and actually bend down to look for a slipper or wipe up the floor. Once in a while I will use my cane, but day in and day out my life has been transformed...and, I thank God every day for his miracle from Tahiti. Juanita Brown The following account is what I affectionately and somewhat flippantly refer to as my own personal Noni Baloney. This is because over the past 25 years I have tried so many things to try to improve my health and the testimonials I heard in an attempt to extract from me my money was for the most part, bull-ony. The only reason I call it my Noni Baloney is because it rhymes. Noni Juice is the one and only thing that actually exceeded my expectations and even exceeds the propaganda prepared by Morinda. My problems with physical health stem mainly from the fact that for some reason (probably radiation exposure while growing up), I do not produce the three main immune components of the blood that being IGg, IGm and IGa along with other T-cell deficiencies. I have been receiving supplemental Gamma Globulin for the past 25 years. I began by receiving 5cc a week I. M. Then it went to 10cc per week, then to 20cc per week intra-muscularly. Finally I progressed to 2.50cc every two weeks I. V. Each time I would have a protein electro-pholarasis it would show all three (IGg, IGa, IGm) being too low to be measured by the lab instruments. Even with the infusions I had multiple infections year after year. In June of 1994, I had a complete gastrectomy because my stomach had turned gangreous supposedly from Plegmenous Gastritis. Since then, I have had ten minor surgeries and six major. The same abdominal scar has been opened five times. After the last surgery both the epidermal and endodermal layers became infected with staphylococcus aureus bacteria around the auturos and the wound split to about 6 inches long and 2 1/2 inches wide. The surgeon chose not to restitch it, so it got worse and worse. I took I. V. antibiotics and put prescription creams on it to no avail. All who viewed it felt that I would surely die from this ugly wound. As soon as I got some Noni Juice from Miles Taggart, I began putting it topically on the incision and drinking 4 or 5 ounces a day. Within three and a half weeks it was completely healed. I have a video of both circumstances and 35mm pictures. After two months of taking Noni Juice, I had another P. E. P. just before my infusion. My IGg was normal, my IGm was low, but showing, my IGa was still too low to measure. My sister also has low IGg and has been getting 10cc shots for the past seven years. Every two months she has had it tested along with her serum cholesterol. For the last two months she has been taking Noni Juice. At the same time her MD has not been able to get any Gamma Globulin. Her test this time, a few days ago, showed her IGg was within normal range and her serum cholesterol had dropped 30 points. We both have copies of several of our tests including the latest. The only thing that changed in both cases was we both began taking Noni Juice. I believe that if I had been taking Noni Juice prior to 1994, I would not have lost my stomach. I pray we can spread the good news quickly and far enough to prevent others such misery and pain as I have endured. Dan Dalton, Castle Valley, UT Testimonial - Dark lump on skin My name is Rosalie Lillo and I am writing this testimonial as given to me by my mother in law Mary Lillo from Kinuso Alberta. Mary is 75 years old and has been taking noni off and on for about 2 years as a preventive tonic. She drinks 2 oz per day. Mary has spent her entire life working outdoors in northern Alberta raising mink and fishing and gardening and looking after about 2 acres of yard. She has never used sun screen and has always had very dark tanned skin. Recently Mary noticed a brown spot on her arm (she has many) which was getting dark and puffed up and kind of sore. She became concerned that it may be skin cancer so she thought she should go to the doctor and get it looked at. It was not convenient to go at the time she first noticed it so she thought she would put some noni on it as I am always telling her to put noni on everything. At first she dabbed it on with her finger or put a little on a Kleenex and held it there usually at night when she would get ready for bed and notice it again. She did it once or twice a day if she remembered at all for about 3 weeks and then she didn't think it was doing any good so she quit for a week or two. She then decided that she better get in to the doctor and have it checked out so in the meantime she went back to putting the juice on this time pouring a bit into the cap and inverting it over the spot and holding it there for up to 5 min. Again she did this sporadically once or twice a day if she did it at all. Within about 2 weeks upon inspection she noticed it was getting hard so she kept applying the juice. About a week later she looked at the spot closely again and noticed it was loose at the edges so she gave it a push and it fell off leaving a deep purple scar which is disappearing very fast. She didn't think to save the scab as we may have been able to have it tested to see if it was cancer so we will never know for sure but she is a very happy (and surprised) woman to be rid of it whatever it was. I can tell you though that Mary is drinking her juice with renewed confidence and vigor!!! My story is an incredible story because it started many years ago, at the age of 5, and now I am 44 years old! I am a mother of 3 beautiful daughters, and 3 gorgeous grandbabies. I am an Official Court Interpreter for the Spanish related cases in Central Florida, and have been for the past 10 years. I have also been a radio and TV broadcaster for the past 18 years, a soloist and upcoming short story book author, too. Since I can remember, I have suffered from different ailments: 1) Constipation 2) Sinusitis 3) PMS (I call it pre, present & post menstrual syndrome) 4) Gastritis 5) Depression 6) Arthritis 7) After math of MENINGITIS. 8) Migraines, and head aches. 9) Weight Problems (40 lbs. overweight) At the age of 5, I remember my mother sitting me on the toilet for hours, due to severe constipation. Sometimes it would take me two or three days in a row to empty my bowels. At the age of 16 I tried to take my life, and swallowed half a bottle of Dristan (about 16-20 pills) because I would go into these terrible depressions. I have always noticed I have been a nervous kind of person, but in a good way. I have always been a positive thinking person and work very hard and put in very long hours at what I do. But a terrible and violent marriage that ended in 1986, really brought stress into my life and and clouded thinking. Even though I am a committed christian and coming from a good family where both my parents were ministers in a church, I felt emptiness and chemical inbalances that would send me into terrible depressions and mood swings. I went out one evening in 1985, going through the worst part of my separation, and had some beers and got into a car accident that affected my left hip, my left leg, and my left foot and big toe. Later, arthritis started developing in these places. The pain started intensifying as years progressed,until I moved to Florida in 1990, and went to the doctor and was diagnosed with arthritis. As conditions worsened, by 1993 I had to lift my left leg with my left hand to get into my car, because it did not bend up or lift up by itself. Forget about using high heels ever again!!! (ladies will know what I'm talking about, right???) In 1986, after my divorce, I developed gastritis, and it became so bad that as of last year 1998, I had to take prescription Tagamet 3, 3 times a day to be able to get through the day. There were a number of foods, I was not able to digest, like tomatoes, pizza, beans, or bean soups,and needless to say, even milk was out of the picture!!! Needless to say, there were nights I would wake up at 2 or 3 in the morning with pain, and have to run to the store for medication, because I would run out of the prescription medicine. I was eating 6 or 7 meals a day, just to take the pain away, as the intake of food takes away the burning sensation of gatritis pain. (Almost 13 years of gastritis!!!) I had also developed accute sinusitis and there was not a morning that I would not wake up and be totally congested, and have to gargle, wash out my nose and sinuses with salty water, and keep spitting. I guess I tried every home and herbal remedy out there to help this condition, to the point that I got some South American flowers ("esponjillo") that really did help my condition for about 6 months, but then it would re-occur. (About 20 years of suffering from sinus condition) Finally, to top everything off, on April 9th, 1997, due to an infested mosquito bite, I contracted Viral Meningitis. I was hospitalized immediately at the Heartland Hospital, Lake Placid. Between life and death that night, my father prayed to God that my life be spared. Dr. Bassetti and Dr. Anthony Shiduhub were the doctors assigned to my case. At first they quarrantined me thinking it was encifilitis, but an MRI and further testing showed it was Meningitis. For the next 3 months I could not think right, walk right, or drive. I lost most of my contracted jobs with the Court, and held onto one. I still was not functioning right for 2 years after this, and started developing intense headaches and migraines. This continued up to March of 1999. In December of 1998, I was driving South on Highway 27 in Florida on my way to work at the Moore Haven Court in Glades County, when my mind went blank, and I suffered like a panic attack, where I didn't know who I was, what I was doing driving down this road, what day it was, or anything!!! It was the scarriest thing I had experienced so far, and I broke down and cried and tried to calm myself, and just sat there and prayed untill I recovered and drove back home and slept for 5 hours!!! I then became very depressive and kept thinking to myself, that I had definitely come to the end of life with my mind going down the drain!!! I woke up every morning with pain in my life! If it wasn't my sinus, it was my arthritis. If it wasn't my gastritis, it was another migraine. Forget it if it also happened to be the first day of my menstruation, I would not be able to go to work or even get up!!! After giving birth to my second daughter, (Audrey is now 22), I had terrible PMS every single month of my life. The clotting was terrible and it felt sometimes like birth pains when the clots would clear the uterus and come out. In January of 1999, Steven Shields, (a God sent angel) contacted me through the internet. He told me some pretty wild, fascinating stories that tickled my brain, because I was so high on all the medication I was taking anyway. These stories were from other people that had healed from migraines,gastritis,etc. I decided to drive 2 hours to the coast and meet him. I bought two bottles of Noni juice and gave one to my Dad and Mom, and another one for a friend, but I didn't start taking it 'till February because I was too skeptical. My dose was, one ounce in the morning and one ounce in the afternoon, but after the first bottle, I decided to take another ounce in the afternoon. By the 6th week....March 15th, to be exact.... Guess what? I woke up that morning without pain, for the first time in years!!!! Thank you Jesus!!! Yes!!! And it has been like this: consistent. No more pain!!! When I have felt an oncoming of a migraine, I just take another ounce. Last month, I went to the beach the very first day of my period, which I hadn't been able to do in years!!! I didn't even detect the customary menstrual oder that comes with it. And no more clotting! It even felt like the first period, like when I was 14 years old. My sinus condition has totally cleared up, and I don't wake up congested in the morning. I am sleeping like a baby, and I don't wake up with gastritis pains any more. I was able to start eating tomatoes again last week and other foods I would stay away from. Milk no longer has a sourness to it, because I feel it is being digested. I have placed all the Tagamet 3 prescription pills, plus Advils, Tylenol 3, Motrin and Exedrin up on my kitchen shelf away from site!!! The most remarkable thing though, is that I am thinking straight, I have my confidence back again. I feel my brain is balanced, and I have the "edge" back for my field of work and expertise. I don't feel "brain dead" anymore, I have renewed energy. My thoughts are clear and in order. I can even remember people's names now, numbers, and situations. Past and recent memories are clear for me now. I am able to do my Notary Public documents without trouble. I was able to raise the Judge's eye brow the other day by translating verbatum and simultaneously without hesitation in Court. Well, even my friends on ICQ, have to tell me to slow down down, because I am typing too fast for them!!!! *Smile* :-) And lastly, I started singing again in my church, because when I was up there singing, a solo, I would loose the train of the song, or forget the lyrics, and it is was so heartbreaking, when you have a backround tape you are trying to follow and you have practiced intensely for a performance, and then have your mind go out on you!!! I am now working on consuming more fiber in my diet, and more water. I remember I couldn't even tolerate water some days!!! Noni Juice makes me thirsty, and I have been drinking 6 - 8 glasses of water now. After the Florida Regional Conference I attended, I went home and evaluated my consumption of fiber and water and I immediately started working on that part of me, that still needs attention. As far as constipation, well, I am going regularly twice a day to the bathroom now!!! :-) I had never heard of that before!!! I keep noticing little and subtle changes that make me happy...like my vericose veins don't hurt anymore and I don't get any more swelling in my leggs. I can now have long fingernails! :-) My skin tone is beautiful and I have this "glow" about me now. I feel happy, satisfied, content, and ready to help anyone else find what I discovered in Noni Juice! Thank you Dr. Solomon, for allowing me to share the goodness and blessings of God, through the discovery of Noni Juice. I am sincerely taking my story to everyone here and around the world that has prayed for my recovery!!! God bless you too, in this mission to tell the world about a HOPE that is now available through Noni juice. Yours Truly, GLORIA SCHANELY. Lake Placid, Fl. May 29th, 1999 My name is Eliza Padilla. I'm 47 years old. I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis, SLE Lupus, and Fibromyalgia in 1991. SLE Lupus involves your main organs, your brain, your heart, your lungs, and your spleen. It involves anything that has to do with your organs. It attacks the lining of your nerves, your muscle, it attacks your bone so much where you are constantly in extreme pain and it eventually kills you. You forget where you are. You do not know who you are. You have muscle spasms, severe seizures; your eyesight is affected. In some cases it makes you go blind. My husband, children, and I went to a Lupus Support Group and they explained what Lupus was or what they knew about it. That not only women got this Chronic Illness, so did men and children. The group that was there some had oxygen tanks some were in wheel chairs, others were bald, - their hair had fallen off so they were wearing wigs or hairpieces. It was frightening for me at this point. I couldn't believe I had this illness. In 1992, I was put on several different types of medications. The medicines were so strong that I felt my body was dying slowly, and there was nothing I could do. I was very depressed; my life had changed far beyond my control. My body was so swollen from the medications and I was in constant pain, even through I was on pain killers - there was no relief for any of my symptoms. From all the medications prescribed for me, I was suffering extreme side affects. My body was in such pain from head to my feet. I could not do any of my house work or cook my meals. I could not lift anything over 5 pounds. I couldn't go shopping. I couldn't drive myself to doctors - I just couldn't do much of anything. My memory was going blank. I couldn't remember what I was doing or where I would put simple things. I would start sweeping the floor and wouldn't finish. I was always tired so I would take naps. My appetite wasn't good and all the 10 to 13 a day medications did not help my stomach. One day in 1995 my Sister, Dee from Denver, Colorado came to visit with me. She is always taking vitamins. She told me about this herbal vitamin called "Cat's Claw." Dee told me, "I want you to try it, see if it doesn't help you in some way. It is not like you to be taking all this other medications. How do you know if it will help you or not." So, I finally got up and started reading about this herb and I started taking it. After about 8 months of testing the Cat's Claw, I started to feel a bit of energy and my appetite started to come back again. I started to be my own doctor for my own body. I took myself off of some medications. I took charge of my life and my faith within myself. I was taking Cat's Claw 3 times a day. The only medications I stayed taking were Predinosone - 5 mg and Plaquanil - 200 mg; Evail Amtripleen - 25 mg before bedtime and my Estrogen - .625 mg once a day. On June 12, 1997, I started feeling a bit tired again so, I was talking to Priscilla Salazar Martinez, and she asked that I call Steven Shields on the 800 number. I asked about the Noni Juice, which at this time my husband and I learned about Noni Juice. We listened to people about their testimonials. It was very interesting to hear how the Noni Juice has helped them. After the phone conversations, I ordered myself some Para-Cleanse tablets to help my body cleanse itself in 20 days, and Noni Juice. I have been taking Noni now since June 20, 1997. At first, I was taking 2 ounces in the am and 2 ounces in the evening. I had not had any pain in my joints and I have a lot more energy. The Noni Juice has helped my Immune System get strong again. My blood work is doing real good, my blood pressure is great. I go for blood tests every 6 weeks. With my Cat's Claw and Noni Juice working together, I am in remission with my Lupus. I am back doing things I used to once do again. I painted the walls inside my house. I refinished my kitchen and bathroom cupboards. I do my own house cleaning now, and I even mow the lawn sometimes! I got my life back, thanks to the Lord, my faith in my herbs or vitamins. I call them my "little Miracles." Thanks to my husband, Frank, for standing beside me through everything I have been through. We were able to celebrate 25 years of marriage on July 26, 1997. We danced and had a great fiesta to celebrate our marriage and our celebration of life! A big thanks to Priscilla Salazar for introducing me to Steven Shields and NONI. About 3 weeks ago, I started taking less Noni. I was taking 2 ounce in the morning and 2 ounces in the evening. Then, I had a lupus flare. I was extremely sick for about 3 days, and I immediately began drinking more Noni Juice. After taking 9 ounces in one day, about one hour later I felt healthy and alive again. I now take 3 ounces in the Morning; 2 ounces at Noon and 3 ounces in the Evening and I am feeling very fine with that. I continue to take the Cat's Claw 350 mg twice a day; one Predinosone 5 mg; Plaquanil 200 mg twice a day. This is a great improvement over the 10 to 13 a day medications I originally was prescribed by my doctor. You have to take charge of your own body. Listen to what your body is telling you. I know this NONI Juice will help you also, and your loved ones will experience benefits from Noni Juice. God Bless My name is Helen Paul. I know I have truly been blessed by " Noni Juice", since I first started taking it on October 3, 1996. About 23 years ago while performing surgery for a Hiatal Hernia the Doctors knife slipped and accidently cut my spleen, which immediately changed the course of the surgery to a rapid Spleenectomy to keep me from bleeding to death. While still hospitalized they made another attempt to do the Hernia repair, but found my stomach so badly ulcerated so they took part of my stomach instead. Then still later while still hospitalized, I somehow contacted Pancreatis and still another surgery had to be performed, a Thoracotomy to insert chest tubes to pump off the terrible infection I had. A hospital stay that was orginally suppose to be 3-5 days, turned into 89 days of pure hell, full of much suffering pain and moments periodically near death. In and out of ICU, sometimes for days at a time spent on an ice bed to help keep my temperature down, from a raging 104 to 105 degrees. I entered the hospital just before Christmas that year and got out just before Easter the next year. With each passing year my health began to decline more and more, as now with n o spleen to help my body fight off infection. One health problem after another.....More surgery.....Two different times to remove tumors from my left chest wall.....Then as my sight became less and less, another to remove one from in behind my eye to try to save my sight. This failed and left me nearly blind in my left eye. All in all Eight years ago I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia, which is a disease of the muscle and soft tissue in the body, for which there is no cure. Almost constant pain and extreme fatigue, sometimes I would find myself so tired I couldn't eat. On October 3, 1996 I was introduced to Noni Juice. I began to take it 2 ozs. twice a day. Within a week I was feeling more rested and energy that I hadn't experienced in years, and the body pain was decreased by 85%. As of December 1, 1996 I have been able to quit all of my Blood Pressure medicines, all the medicines for the Hiatal Hernia, (which I still have after all that time in the hospital, the original surgery I went into the hospital for, has never been done. After seeing what Noni Juice has done for us in our lives, we are on a special mission to take Noni Juice to as many of the people of America as possible. I know Noni Juice is truly a Miracle from Paradise, it has truly changed my life. I say thanks to my friends for introducing it to me and above all I thank God for it. Helen Paul I have had the extreme good fortune to experience the most remarkable juice. I want to add my experiences with Noni to the many that have gone before me. I have been drinking Noni since June 15th. Since I began drinking Noni and sharing it with others I have had many experiences some of which I want to share with you now. For the better part of my life I have diligently sought after a healthy life style as a result I enjoy great health. Noni juice has enhanced my efforts, I can do twice as many push-ups (three sets of twenty) as I could before Noni and I have added two inches to my chest without gaining a pound. I have more energy, my skin is improving and I no longer wake up with my eyes and face puffy. My husband had more energy, his arthritis is less painful and hislibido has returned. Yahoo Noni! Mother has angina and has had to take nitroglycerin and rest while mowing the lawn. Now she says she can mow the entire lawn without stopping and has no problem with angina. She also has energy for all the projects she had planned but could not do. She is so happy to have her energy back. This past week she cleaned, waxed and repaired her Parquet floor. She has had no problems with the arthritis in her neck. Before Noni she had chronic neck and shoulder pain and would have been bed ridden after such a job should she have attempted it. Her heart palpitations have stopped and herblood pressure has gone down. Mom is 72 years old. Thanks Noni. Dad has emphysema and has to use a compressor nebulizer for treatment, he had to stop smoking because he could not breathe. Since he is feeling so much better after drinking Noni he is smoking again. Oh well. My sister Debra has experienced a relief in her back pain and sore leg muscles after one day. She has chronic back from an operaiton. My sister Donis has more energy and relief from muscle soreness after just one day. She no longer needs to nap in the afternoon and her varicose veins are shrinking. Thompson Granddaughters both expelled dead worms in their fecal matter after one drink. Teague Granddaughter had eczema clear up after a few days of applying noni topically. I know this juice will work for you, and that your loved ones will benefit from Noni Juice. Patricia Teague Hello, my name is Glenn Raney and I am a bilateral amputee with various health challenges. I am a Type 2, or Senior onset Diabetic Not long ago, two friends and business associates called me to tell me about a business opportunity they'd gotten involved with called " Noni", I was very skeptical and told them that I was not interested in any new opportunity and that I couldn't afford to try any new products. They convinced me, however, to at least try the Noni Juice for a month and if I didn't think it helped me, I could return the unused portion for a full refund. I agreed and started taking Noni. Within a short while I noticed that I did not need as much insulin as I had previously needed. After carefully monitoring my blood sugar, I was able to safely reduce the amount of insulin I take on a daily basis by 20-30%. My blood pressure has been the best it has been in years, I have lost quite a bit of unwanted weight, and I have more energy than I have had in a long time. One of the most significant things that is happening is that my legs do not hurt as much as they did. I have had an open ulcer on the bottom of my left stump that would not heal. It had opened up to about the size of a silver dollar and was deep enought to go past the second knuckle of my index finger. I have tried so many things and could not get it to heal no matter what I tried. The doctor's solution was to have about 12 more inches taken off the bottom of my leg. No thank you!!! Since I have been taking the Noni Juice, the hole in my stump has started to close and is now reduced to the size of a nickel. I can barely put the end of my finger in the hole. I have been ecstatic with the results I have experienced with Noni Juice. If you ask me what you should do, I would have to say, "Try it". It has helped me beyond my wildest imagination. I continue to see results and I'm convinced that Noni Juice is one of the most wonderful discoveries in centuries. In October, 1985 I was diagnosed with third stage ovarian cancer, left side, which had spread into the left colon. I was given 6 weeks to live. Two chemo treatments put me in a coma for 33 days. In January, 1987, I had a total hysterectomy to remove the remaining tumor and I also underwent bowel restructuring. The chemo and drugs caused great side effects; 73% hearing loss in my left ear and 25% hearing loss in my right ear, loss of all high pitched sounds, a constant ringing and roaring in my left ear, loss of almost all moisture in my eyes, a balance problem and a problem with standing or walking especially at night. The massive amount of corrective surgery to remove the remaining tumor and the total hysterectomy left massive adhesions in my colon and small intestines with a problem emptying my bladder plus other things. In 1987 I began my slow climb to recover my health. I began to research and read much material for help and health. I tried many, many things, all kinds of supplements, etc. Some helped a little--some didn't. Although I had changed my diet, because of the extreme amount of adhesions in the small intestine and colon, I was in constant pain (gas pain) and was afraid to eat much. It has been 11 long years and the pace was so slow but gradually things began to change somewhat for the better. I found out about a wonderful fiber that didn't hurt my colon, which was a great improvement. But, on January 25, 1997, about a month ago, someone told me about Noni juice. I started taking 2 tablespoons 3 times a day. About 2 weeks later, I noticed my legs and feet were not hurting and so anymore and my right leg and arthritic knee did not hurt. I am 58 years old. I am starting to have more feeling in my legs and feet and have more strength in them. I am walking up and down stairs with out help and my balance is much better now. The noise in my left ear has lessened considerably and I believe there is a slight improvement in my hearing. I am sleeping better, have a lot more energy and a wonderful feeling of well-being. I am hoping for more improvements! I am telling people about what I have been doing and about feeling better. I am so thankful for this wonderful fruit juice and I thank my Heavenly Father for creating it. Carolyn J. Madison. I live in a very small resort town in Henderson, Arkansas. Three years ago I had a mamogram, and it showed a small shadow and what the doctor called a "thickening in the breast", and said they would have to keep a close watch on it. On November 12, 1996, right before Thanksgiving I went in for another mamogram. The diagnosis this time was a large lump 5-1/2" centimeters about the size of a silver dollar. Then they did an ultrasound, and it showed the same thing, large and bright. I was told I had to get a biopsy, but I wanted to wait until after Thanksgiving as we were going out of town to Texas to visit our children. Before we left a friend of mine brought me a bottle of Noni Juice and said "Drink this, and perhaps when you go for the biopsy it will not be there." I had been praying for help for the situation I was facing, so I doubled up on the amount I was taking, and in the next 3 weeks I drank 1-1/2 bottles of Noni Juice. I wasn't going to take any chance of not drinking enough for it to help me. When we came back from our trip to Texas I went in to have the biopsy. The surgeon felt for the lump but could not feel anything. Then he took another mamogram. They sent me to another hospital in Springfield, Missouri where they took 3 more mamograms (in a row) trying to find something. But they found nothing--not even a small spot. Then they did 2 more ultrasounds that same day and found nothing. The doctor said, "You have had a miracle!" And I said, "Yes, PRAISE GOD, it's the Noni. They all (the doctors and nurses) wanted to know "What is Noni???" I told them about Noni and then said to them, "I will always drink Noni Juice and so should everyone else." What a Blessing!
