Diabetes? Target the Immune System

Posted by: Immunocal‚  May 27, 2010 :  Category: 1-Interviews, 5-Success Stories, 6-Conference Calls

There is no cure for diabetes.  According to the American Diabetes Association 23.6 million children and adults in the United States—7.8% of the population—have diabetes, 5.7 million of them are yet undiagnosed!  Even more staggering is the 57 million people who are pre-diabetic!

Immunotec: Web TV & Sydicated Radio!

Posted by: Immunocal‚  May 21, 2010 :  Category: 1-Interviews

dylan_jesseImmunotec is now being featured by Jesse Dylan on web TV and his syndicated radio program. No longer will Immunocal be the world’s best kept secret folks.

I was introduced to Mr. Dylan on the Adventure of the Seas in the Mediteranean between Nice France and Cagliari Italy and was privileged to be interviewed by him and many other consultants to be featured in a piece discussing why anyone would spend 60 seconds every day mixing a product in a shaker cup.  He wanted to know why I choose to be a consultant for Immunotec and why I have a passion for promoting glutathione enhancement.  My story is already posted here on the “Our Mission” page on this blog but I’ll fill in more of the details in the coming weeks. jonathan-with-jesse-dylan

Mr Dylan told me about several of this contemporaries like Joan London, Leeza Gibbons and many others who now know about and recommend Immunocal for the immune system. However, most significantly he also leaked that next month Dr. Oz will be interviewed on the value of glutathione enhancement.  Keep tabs here and I’ll be sure to let you know when that interview will be aired.

I’m Not Sick, I Just Have Cancer!”

jazmineThe story of 10 year old Jazmine as told by her Mother Anna Maria

Jazmine’s mother and father love all three of their beautiful daughters but Jazmine holds a special place in their hearts.  Her mother says now, “I feel like a little girl with a new doll…”

She hasn’t always felt that way.  You see, Jazmine has been diagnosed with a brain tumor, a rare cancer, in fact, there are SEVEN different kinds of cancer in this little girl’s head.  The doctor recommended a very agressive treatment regimen, one that would last some 45 days on an experimental chemo therapy, along with radiation!  The doctors gave her only a 3 percent chance of survival past 90 days…

Desperate but not hopeless, Jazmine’s parents decided to target her immune system and give their baby girl a fighting chance!  Ten months later and not only still alive, jumping, playing and happy, Jazmine wonder’s what’s all the fuss about… she says, “I’m not sick, I just have cancer!”

Hear Anna, Jazmine’s mother, tell the story in her own words (Click on the family’s photo):

jazmines-family

Would you like to help?

Jazmine’s father placed jars in stores to collect monies from anyone willing to help with the expense of driving Jazmine from Moultrie Georgia all the way to Gainsville Florida each week for her treatments.  They are often months behind on their rent and utilities.  The travel expense is difficult to bear with only one income for the family.

If you would like to help this family and other children who can’t afford cancer treatments and their immune system supplements, click on the PayPal button below to donate any amount from 25 cents or more. The CellularHealth Foundation is a private Not-for-Profit organization.  No funds are used for salaries.  All donations will go directly to families of children in need starting with Jazmine.

No Treatment for Alzheimer’s Disease!

Posted by: Immunocal‚  April 29, 2010 :  Category: 3-Health News, Alzheimer's, Uncategorized

An independent panel concluded that there is no treatment for Alzheimer’s. While that is a fact, Doreen’s Mom has it and Doreen decided to target her Mom’s immune system.  She says that her Mom began to do things for herself that she hadn’t done in a long time.

Here’s what she describes were the results:

Interestingly, the PDR (Physician’s Desk Reference) says that Alzheimer’s in a “glutathione deficiency state”.  Target the immune system folks, your body knows what to do after that. -J. Jones, www.untiltheyfindacure.com

Prevent Alzheimer’s? No evidence you can: panel

WASHINGTON
Wed Apr 28, 2010 5:10pm EDT

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Fish oil, exercise and doing puzzles may all be good for the brain but there is no strong evidence that any of these can prevent Alzheimer’s disease, an expert panel concluded on Wednesday.

Health

Nor can any other supplements, drugs or social interaction, the independent panel meeting at the National Institutes of Health outside Washington concluded.

The group of experts looked at the dozens of studies that have suggested ways to prevent Alzheimer’s — a devastating and incurable breakdown of the brain — and found none were strong enough to constitute proof.

“We wish we could tell people that taking a pill or doing a puzzle every day would prevent this terrible disease, but current evidence doesn’t support this,” said Dr. Martha Daviglus of Northwestern University in Chicago, who chaired the panel.

Most of the studies that have been done show associations, but not cause and effect, Daviglus said.

“These associations are examples of the classic chicken or the egg quandary. Are people able to stay mentally sharp over time because they are physically active and socially engaged or are they simply more likely to stay physically active and socially engaged because they are mentally sharp?” she asked.

The 15 experts met under the NIH’s state-of-the-science conference program, which aims to direct future research in an important study area.

They included specialists in geriatrics, long-term care, nursing, psychiatry and other fields. Panelists may not be federal government employees, nor may they have financial stakes in any treatments considered.

The report is available here

DISEASE NOT FULLY UNDERSTOOD

The Alzheimer’s Association says as many as 5.3 million Americans have Alzheimer’s and projects that 16 million may have it by 2050.

“It is critical that we, as a nation, significantly increase investments in Alzheimer research,” the group said in a statement.

“The total payments for health and long-term care services for people with Alzheimer’s and other dementias will amount to $172 billion from all sources in 2010.”

The panel found there were inconsistent definitions of what constitutes Alzheimer’s disease and the cognitive decline that leads up to it.

Doctors also do not fully understand how the disease develops — for instance, there is disagreement on whether the amyloid plaques found in the brains of victims cause the disease or are merely a symptom.

There are a few drugs to treat Alzheimer’s but their effects are temporary. Genetics are strongly involved, and blacks and other minorities have a higher risk than whites.

Immunocal News : Asthma Inhalers Being Phased Out!

Posted by: Immunocal‚  April 20, 2010 :  Category: 0-Immunocal News, Uncategorized

FDA Announces Phase Out of CFC-Based Asthma and COPD Inhalers

Emma Hitt, PhD

April 16, 2010 — In compliance with a rule about ozone-depleting substances, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has announced that 7 available asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) metered-dose inhalers that use chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) as propellants are being removed from the marketplace.

The phase out is to comply with the Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer. Alternative medications that contain hydrofluoroalkanes are available to substitute for the CFC-based products.

Affected Products

The affected products and their phase-out dates are as follows:

  • nedocromil (Tilade Inhaler, King Pharmaceuticals), June 14, 2010
  • metaproterenol (Alupent Inhalation Aerosol, Boehringer Ingelheim), June 14, 2010
  • triamcinolone (Azmacort Inhalation Aerosol, Abbott Laboratories), December 31, 2010
  • cromolyn (Intal Inhaler, King Pharmaceuticals), December 31, 2010
  • flunisolide (Aerobid Inhaler System, Forest Laboratories), June 30, 2011
  • albuterol and ipratropium in combination (Combivent Inhalation Aerosol, Boehringer Ingelheim Pharmaceuticals), December 31, 2013
  • pirbuterol (Maxair Autohaler, Graceway Pharmaceuticals), December 31, 2013

According to the FDA press release, the United States has banned the general use of CFCs in consumer aerosols for decades and eliminated the production of CFCs in the United States as of January 1, 1996, except for certain limited uses, such as metered-dose inhalers.

“Like most countries, the US signed this agreement and committed to making it illegal to make or sell CFC-containing substances after a certain date,” said Erica V. Jefferson, a spokesperson with the FDA Office of Public Affairs in a conversation with Medscape Medical News. “Most CFC inhalers have already been phased out as part of this agreement,” she added.

According to Ms. Jefferson, there are no special monitoring programs, and there will be no penalties for prescribers. “However, [the] FDA has been working with manufacturers, healthcare professionals, and patient groups to notify them that these CFC-containing products will no longer be available for sale or distribution after the transition dates,” she told Medscape Medical News.

Many companies that make CFC inhalers have already stopped manufacturing some of the products on the transition list. These include Tilade, Alupent, Azmacort, and Intal. The remaining 3 products (Aerobid, Maxair, and Combivent) being transitioned between 2011 and 2013 are still available, but the amount of inventory remaining is unknown, Ms. Jefferson explained.

Available Alternatives

“Physicians should work with their patients to determine which alternative product or products will work best for their patients in terms of managing their disease, and which will work for their patients’ lifestyle,” Ms. Jefferson said.

Bradley E. Chipps, MD, from the Capital Allergy & Respiratory Disease Center and a fellow of the American Academy of Allergy Asthma and Immunology, said that this phase out will not significantly change clinical practice for practicing pulmonary specialists. However, he added, patients are less likely to be adherent because of higher costs for CFC-free products. “Importantly, [hydrofluoroalkane] inhalers can become ’stuffed up,’ whereas the CFC inhalers did not have this problem,” he told Medscape Medical News.

More information is available on the FDA Web site:

Seven Inhalers That Use CFCs Being Phased Out

Phase-Out of CFC Metered-Dose Inhalers Containing flunisolide, triamcinolone, metaproterenol, pirbuterol, albuterol and ipratropium in combination, cromolyn, and nedocromil

Metered-Dose Inhalers Clean Air Act Information

EDITORIAL REMARK:

“Why not consider getting to the root of the problem and raise glutathione levels in the lungs?  The FDAs website shows a case study done using Immunocal whereby a patient with pulmonary disease showed significant and dramatic increases in their pulmonary function and glutathione levels each time they were on ImmunocalClick here to find this case study slide.  Immunocal has been placed in the FDA category GRAS (which means “Generally Regarded as Safe”).  So only the FDA can declare something a treatment for a disease but using information they provide, here is a safe, natural substance that has a positive impact on a relatively unknown molecule in the lungs that in turn improves pulmonary function.  I say is a simple matter of connecting the dots.” -Jonathan Jones

Adverse Reactions to Swine Flu Vaccine

Posted by: Immunocal‚  March 27, 2010 :  Category: 1-Interviews, 4-Influenza

INFLUENZA VACCINE

With so much concern about the H1N1 vaccine, many have wondered where to find information about possible side effects and statistics as to the effectiveness of the vaccination program.  Well there is “good” new and “bad” news to share with you.  The information to follow will show that yes, data is available, albeit, challenging to sort through, but it is is available. Visit the FDA’s official reporting website and see the shocking, telling facts for yourself.

img_fdagov_logo_type

Adverse reaction to the H1N1 Vaccine can be reported on the FDA’s website. The system is called VAERS (Vaccine Adverse Event Reporting System).  VAERS has published statistics on ONLY ONE of the H1N1(swine flu) vaccines:

“Influenza A (H1N1) 2009 Monovalent Vaccine”

As of February 26, 2010:
There have been 10,172 reports,  636 classified as “Serious Health Events” –defined as “life-threatening or death, major disability, abnormal conditions at birth, hospitalization, or extension of existing hospitalization.”  There have been 51 deaths, all under investigation.

FDA.gov indicates that 500+ reports come to VAERS each week of reactions to this vaccine.

Immunotec’s Clinical Study on Autism:

Press Release

For Immediate Release

Researchers in Texas Launch Autism Study Using Protein Supplement

DALLAS, November 22, 2006— Scientists at UT Southwestern Medical Center in Dallas and Immunotec Research Ltd. have initiated a study in which a specially formulated whey protein isolate (Immunocal)will be used to raise glutathione levels in an attempt to lessen symptoms of autism.

Autism is a neurological developmental disorder that affects children’s ability to socialize normally, impairs language skills, restricts their interests and curiosity and causes other behavioral abnormalities. Most cases are diagnosed before three years of age, and there has been an alarming increase in the number of cases diagnosed over the past two decades. Currently, 1 in every 175 American children is being identified as having autism, and these numbers are on the rise each year. To date, medical treatment of this disorder has been minimally effective. Although the causes of autism have not been clearly identified, research has suggested that chronic biochemical imbalance plays a role. Studies have shown that levels of the major intracellular antioxidant “Glutathione” is typically about 50% lower in children with autism. Glutathione, which is produced by every cell in the body, is responsible for a number of functions including removing or neutralizing dangerous substances that we are exposed to on a daily basis, including toxic metals.

Toxins, pollution, disease, stress, and poor diet can all contribute to loss of glutathione. When glutathione levels reach a critically low degree, we are much more vulnerable to toxins and immune dysfunction.

Principal investigator for this study is Dr. Janet Kern, an adjunct assistant professor of psychiatry at UT Southwestern, which is internationally recognized for its clinical and research programs.

“Some children with autism are poor detoxifiers relative to normally developing children, and in particular, have trouble excreting toxic metals,” said Dr. Kern. “Toxic metals that are not eliminated may build up in the brain. Plasma glutathione has been found to be lower in children with autism, particularly, in children with autism who have regressed. We want to clearly establish that raising glutathione levels in these children will improve their ability to detoxify these substances and in that way improve some of their symptoms.”

Dr. Jill James, Professor of Pediatrics at University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences, will be a coinvestigator. Dr. James is noted for her landmark studies in autism and toxicology and is among the first scientists to point out the links with low glutathione levels. “We know that Immunocal has been used to raise glutathione in other studies very effectively in areas such as cancer and lung disease. We want to take advantage of this same technology”, stated James. The team will be using a protein supplement produced by Immunotec Research Ltd. near Montreal, Quebec, Canada, called “Immunocal”. It is identified by the Physicians’ Desk Reference (PDR) as a glutathione precursor. Immunotec Research Ltd. has combined rigorous research and business acumen delivering natural healthcare and dietary supplements in 22 countries worldwide.

Fight Gram-Negative Acinetobacter Baumannii While Hospitalized

Fight Gram-Negative Acinetobacter Baumannii While Hospitalized

- By Fueling Your Immune System

It seems every day we learn of a new health threat from the microscopic world of infectious germs. Who has not heard of MRSA, which has been in the news much of late? This deadly bacteria is designated a Gram-positive bacteria. There are presently antibiotics that are somewhat effective against this germ. But, that is not the case with Acinetobacter, which is a Gram-negative bacteria. You can check the internet for more details on this bacteria and what Gram-positive and Gram-negative mean.

In lay terms, the most important point here is that this Gram-negative germ is drug-resistant. The good news, if there is some, is that, unlike MRSA, a Gram-positive bacteria, which can threaten people outside the hospital, Acinetobacter threatens only hospitalized patients whose immune systems are weak. So, if you, or, a loved one is in the hospital with a resultant weak immune system, there is a grave risk of infection. In some cases this bacteria could be deadly.

I must confess that, I have heard very little about this dangerous germ and I’m probably not alone. Frankly, I believe that most folks, in or, out of the hospital, are unaware of this silent enemy to health. So, how can you or, a loved one be protected from these and other infectious antigens? Simply put — by making sure that you have and maintain a strong immune system, even while you are in the hospital.

Fuel Your Immune System by Raising Glutathione Levels

By now, you have likely read, or, heard a lot about the remarkable tripeptide, glutathione, or, GSH, as it is often abbreviated in research science. This highly regarded protein is the most potent and ubiquitous antioxidant in your body. Even more important, it fuels and feeds the human immune system; thus rendering it more responsive to and resistant of invading antigens, like MRSA and Acinetobacter. Therefore, increasing glutathione levels at the cellular level is fast becoming a modality with numerous healthful benefits.

For example it:

  • Is often referred to as the body’s “Master Antioxidant,” because it re-generates other more commonly known antioxidants; like Vitamin C, CoQ-10 and Selenium.
  • Optimizes the immune system for a faster and more effective response to an invading germ.
  • Acts as a potent detoxifier in the Liver and elsewhere.
  • Restores energy levels to the cells.
  • Slows down the premature aging of cells.

How Can You Raise Your Glutathione Levels Naturally While Hospitalized?

Ask your physician. Even while the hospital, you, or, a loved one can gain access to the most respected, all-natural, clinically-proven, drug-free way to boost glutathione levels. This unique, cysteine-rich, bioactive, whey-protein supplement, has been designated by the FDA as GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe), and is listed in your doctor’s prescription drug reference, better known as the PDR; yet, it is NOT a drug, hence, no drug side effects. It is also listed in the respected Pharmacy’s Fundamental Reference (Red Book).

Why not ask your health professional about it?

For more information about this cysteine-rich, science-based supplement, leave your contact information for Wayne Holloway.

He and his wife have been consumers for more than six years and found significant results with their health conditions by optimizing their human systems. They have spent the past six years educating others on the benefits an enhanced immune system by naturally raising glutathione levels.

Allergies and Lung Protection

Posted by: Immunocal‚  March 14, 2010 :  Category: 00-Glutathione, 3-Health News, Lungs

Allergies and Lung Protection

The risk of developing respiratory allergies from exposure to diesel emissions depends largely on genetics, according to a study funded by the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH).

Researchers from the Keck School of Medicine of the University of Southern California and the David Geffen School of Medicine at UCLA have found that genetic characteristics seen in about half the population leave allergy-sufferers particularly susceptible to the effects of diesel particles.

Here are the relevant findings from the study:

  • People with a certain genetic makeup are more susceptible to allergies caused by diesel engine exhaust.

  • Antioxidants can detoxify these particles and temper the body’s allergic inflammatory response. The better the body can use antioxidants to defend itself, the better it may protect itself from airborne pollutants.

  • The enzymes glutathione S-transferase M1, or GSTM1, and glutathione S-transferase P1, or GSTP1 - that metabolize reactive oxygen species and detoxify chemicals present in diesel exhaust - were studied for their role in protecting the lungs.

  • GSTM1 occurs in two common forms in the population-either “present” or “null.” People born with two of the null form of the gene cannot produce the GSTM1 protective enzyme at all.

  • The GSTP1 gene can occur with a common variation called ile105. People born with two of the ile105 form of the gene produce a less-effective form of the GSTP1 enzyme.

  • People who lack the GSTM1 enzyme exhibit a larger allergic response than others. Also, those who lack GSTM1 and have at least one GSTP1 ile105 genetic variant show an even larger allergic response to diesel exhaust particles.

  • The findings suggest that people who lack the genes to make key antioxidants may have difficulty fighting the harmful effects of air pollution.

  • Up to 50 percent of the United States population could be in jeopardy of experiencing health problems related to air pollution because of these genetic variations.

  • Overcoming this genetic deficiency could possibly be accomplished by either giving people drugs that replace the role of the genes or by boosting the body’s natural defenses.

  • Antioxidants may prevent the effects that air pollution have on allergic inflammation.

The research suggest that boosting levels of antioxidants like glutathione, may prevent the effects that air pollution have on allergic inflammation.

The best way to increase and maintain one’s glutathione (GSH) levels is to include animal foods in your diet, as these contain the amino acids needed by the body to synthesize GSH.

An excellent food supplement is un-denatured (non-heated) whey protein that can optimize intracellular glutathione levels. (Go to Products page to order)

“Doctors Recommended Lifelong Immuno-suppresive Therapy”

Posted by: Immunocal‚  March 13, 2010 :  Category: 00-Glutathione, 5-Success Stories, K. Brown

Kevin Michael Brown

kevin_bIn 1997, I was diagnosed with a very aggressive, Pulmonary disease [called] “stage 3 Sarcoidosis.” This is an autoimmune disease that causes inflammation and scaring of the lung tissue. I was already losing vital lung function and in time I would become a lung cripple, no longer able to breathe without the aid of an oxygen tank.

My doctors recommended that I began a lifelong immuno-suppressive therapy-using Steroids. I was further in formed that the benefits from the steroid treatment could not be guaranteed but the long-term prognosis without the treatment is probably worse.

In June of 1999 I started using a high dose of Prednisone. The drug Plaquenil was later added. Modest improvement came at the expense of many side effects including abnormal weight gain, muscular weakness, a [bloated] look in my face, pain in my joints and the swelling of my fingers. Since immuno-suppressive therapy did not provide me with the results I was looking for, I discontinued the treatment in April 2001. I then started looking for a nutritional solution to support my immune system.

In addition to juicing, I made some major changes in my eating habits. In October 2001, I started taking Chinese herbs to further support my immune system. The Doctors began to see some major clinical improvements. Some weeks latter an old friend by the name of Jim Spencer contacted me and recommended that I start taking a product called Immunocal. He pointed out that my auto Immune disease was a result of a glutathione deficiency. He further pointed out that Immunocal is listed in the “Physicians Desk Reference” (the doctor’s bible).
When I checked the PDR I was surprised to learn that there are many diseases listed in that publication that are defined as “Glutathione Deficient States” with autoimmune diseases being among them.

The PDR further states that Immunocal has been “clinically proven to raise glutathione values” in each cell of the body.

Jim said that raising my glutathione levels by using Immunocal would not only regulate my immune system so that the inflammation would go away, but the elevated glutathione levels would also rid my body of all the toxins I received as a result of taking those very powerful medications.

In just three months after using Immunocal, the inflammation had completely gone away with no further scaring of my lung tissue. My lung function has dramatically improved to the amazement of all of my doctors. Finally, as my body began riding itself of all the toxins, the side effects from the medications began to fade away. Other than immunocal and the other vitamin supplements from Immunotec Research, I am on no other Pharmaceuticals or herbal remedies to prevent the return of this disease. At the time of this writing it had been six years since I started seeing the benefits of elevating my glutathione levels by adding Immunocal to my daily regimen. (December 2007)

My wife and I would be happy to share with you how it is really possible to get your life back.

‘I Got My Life Back…’

Posted by: Immunocal‚  March 05, 2010 :  Category: 00-Glutathione, 5-Success Stories, Greta


Hypothyroid Disease Testimonial January 2009

greta1My name is Greta Flippen. I operate a hair salon in Port St. Lucie , Florida . I have had various health challenges over the years, including hypothyroid disease, Fibromyalgia, and petite mal epilepsy.

My height is 5’3” and I weighed close to 200 pounds, and had nodules on my goiter, due to the hypothyroidism. I had chronic pain and depression from the Fibromyalgia (FM). I experienced generalized seizures, low serotonin levels, and lack of focus from the epilepsy. To top it off, I was having heart problems and kidney problems due to the excessive amounts of prescription drugs I was taking.

Due to the severity of my problems, I had prayed vowing to do whatever it took to gain back my health . My blessing was my mother who had heard about a natural supplement called Immunocal ,and a friend who got me started on the product. I began taking 4 packs a day of the Regular Immunocal 5 years ago.

I am no longer obese. Weight loss occured within 2 weeks. Much of the weight gain was water weight that came as a result of all the drugs I had been taking. I began weaning myself off those drugs, and I dropped from a size 22- nearly a size 24–to a size 14, in 2 weeks!

Greta Before Immunocal

I no longer have chronic pain. Within 3 months my pain was gone with Immunocal.

I very seldom have “controlled seizures” or what I call “auras” at all anymore. My depression has improved greatly with out any synthetic drugs. I no longer have heart or kidney problems due to prescribed overdosing of synthetic drugs. Due to my choice of neutraceuticals over pharmeceuticals my health has undeniably improved. I had nuclear testing done and my M.D. said I no longer have the nodules on my goiter. My doctors are amazed at the way I look after losing so much weight, as I still have the elasticity in my skin. My M.D.s have agreed for me to stay on the Immunocal, due to the medical validation of the product. My neurologist okayed the Immunocal, the Omega 3s, and the Immunotec Multi-vitamins. My serotonin levels are closer to normal. He said I have no need now for any of the prescription drugs, which were causing me many unwanted side effects.

greta_after1I can focus again and I feel I have optimum health. In fact, my health just keeps getting better and better!

And that’s not all. My 4 year old grandson Siare comes to see me during the summer and stays for 3 months. He knows my regiment now: as he awakens from his sleep he says, “Nonnie it’s time for my Immunocal.” And I wondered how could a child want to take Immunocal so faithfully? Well after returning home from his vacation, and a back to school check up, Siare’s Mom found out that he suffers from the sickle cell anemia trait. He gets swollen joints, and it can cause uncontrollable nosebleeds and high body temperature. So we started him on Immunocal, and even a 4 year old knows it helped him feel better fast! It will be interesting the next time the doctor does a blood test on Siare.!

I feel Immunotec is the best company I’ve ever been a part of. The product has given me my life back. And being a distributor more than pays for the product I need. It has given me dignity and pride to represent a company with such a wonderful product. I’m not just a fanatic with a testimony! Try it and see how Immunocal can change YOUR life!

“That Call in 2005 Changed My Life”

Posted by: Immunocal‚  March 03, 2010 :  Category: 5-Success Stories, Donyale

donyale-roundtree2I am 48 years old today, but in my early 20’s I was warned, more than once that my test results showed “Very High Cholesterol”. (Health challenge 1)

In 1996 at the age of 35, I was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis. I sought out a second and third opinion only to get the same diagnosis (RA). The doctors though could not give me any answers to some of my test results or why I was having many unexplained symptoms that did not relate to RA such has a breakout of redness on the bridge on my nose or the burning sensation that ran through my body (inflammation), tiredness when in the sun and more. (By the way, I had no joint pain, the doctors just said you will get it later).

Then at the age of 36 in 1997, I went to see a cardiologist specialist for chest pains and rapid heartbeat. I was diagnosed with Tachycardia (Health challenge 2), the recommendation was to have an operation (I was pregnant so I refused). In this same year still having unexplained symptoms and frustrated more than ever regarding my diagnosis of RA, I went to a specialist in San Leandro CA, Dr. Michael Neuwalt, who ran more extensive test’s. The results were not in my favor. That year I was diagnosed with a sister to Lupus (Health challenge 3).

Dr. Neuwalt wanted me take prednisone and other meds, but (still pregnant and not wanting to harm my unborn child, I also refused all these medications). I continued to have intermittent flare ups and was sicker than I would let others know about.

(My Turning Point)
In 2005, a good friend of 28 years in Tennessee called me to tell me about Immunocal and how it had helped her husband who had an Aneurysm. Of course I was happy for him, but not interested in hearing about any products. She was so thrilled and just wanted to share the news, but she did not know about my conditions or what was going on when she called. I had numbness on the right side of my face and drooling from both sides of my mouth and a very bad dark brown infection under the nail beds of both of my big toes. Of course I was also dealing with the sister to Lupus symptoms.

I heard my friend Virginia’s excitement loud and clear because it was detoxing all of the Agent Orange out of her husband. Today, the military doctors can no longer find any traces of Agent Orange in his body. Also, the Gangrene he had in both feet is completely gone (due to Immunocal) and no amputation was done. This has never been seen and his doctors are in shock. (So was I). But I had a sister to Lupus nothing similar to his condition, I thought?

(Long story short), we were similar in that we had immune based health challenges, and we were aging (Aging is an immune based challenge for everyone living young and old). The need to raise our Glutathione levels which were being depleted through aging and our immune based health challenges was a real issue that needed to be addressed. I started taking 1 pouch of Immunocal in one month on this natural product the numbness in my face and the drooling was gone also to my excitement my nail beds were now a nice pink color, the infection was gone and I didn’t have to use Lamsil.

(The problem) My health challenge with Lupus symptoms continued, but with less severity. Depending on what I ate or my stress level, this would trigger an auto-immune response against my own body which became worse if I was in the sun. I learned the importance of taking the right amount of Immunocal required for my age and health challenge and on a consistent basis.

(The Results) That call in 2005, changed my life, I have not called the ambulance in over 2 years, a call I had to make many times before taking Immunocal. I had no operations. I took no medications.(You can take Immunocal with medications,there are no contraindiations) I took and continue to take only this natural product Immunocal along with vitamins and I am well today.

donyale-roundtree1Friends have pointed out things they noticed that I had not thought about. This now made me more aware of other good results I was having. (Case and point): One day a friend saw me on a very cold day. I had a sleeveless shirt on yet she was bundled up, she asked was I not cold? No, was my response, she said you were always cold and you always wore your coat, I then realized that one of my symptoms had not been plaguing me was gone. This was coldness (body temperature and hormone imbalance) I would get so cold my body would shake and no matter if you put 4 covers on me and turned the heater on full blast it did nothing to help my condition, I had to have another human body get behind me and hold me tight until my body absorbed their body’s heat, in order to stop my body from shaking. This has not happened for two years since being on this natural product Immunocal.

“We Found Her Passed Out…”

Posted by: Immunocal‚  January 10, 2010 :  Category: 5-Success Stories, Gunny

As told by Gunny Weigand

My daughter, Virginia, started to develop Exercise Induced Asthma at around age 11. She was put on Salbutamol Inhalers. Her asthma got progressively worse to the point where she was using a steroid inhaler as well.

It got to the point where she would develop Bronchitis every time she caught a sniffle. These bouts with Bronchitis then started to develop into Pneumonia.

Virginia is an athlete. She was on all the school teams, basketball, volleyball, baseball, x-country running, you name it. She also played the trombone in both the school’s senior band and in jazz band.
Her Asthma now started to seriously interfere with her various activities and enjoyment of life.

It got worse the day we found her, passed out on the floor, beside a fully drawn bathtub… She was unconscious, with her lips starting to turn blue.
After some time in the hospital, a specialist told us to get rid of all animals, move out of our century farm house, not to go outside near ..trees! grass! etc. It was absurd.

He then gave me a standing prescription for Prednisone. I was told to give her 8 pills, 5mg each, at the onset of any cold. That’s 40 mg of Prednisone for every cold, for a duration of 10 days. I was absolutely horrified.

Enter Glutathione Precursors… 3 pouches [of Immunocal] per day. Within 3 months she was off all puffers, stopped catching colds, and if she did, they would last only 2 or 3 days.

She resumed all of her sports and activities with a vengeance.
And we certainly did not “get rid of” our cats and dog.
Neither did we move.

Glutathione enhancement [Immunocal] completely made my daughter’s Asthma a thing of the past.
We are so grateful to have discovered this!
