Wellness Achiever,

Some of my doctors and most of my friends wanted to know what I did to rejuvenate my health. They were all marveling -- especially the doctors who knew my case. At one time, I had a list of chronic and debilitating disorders. I was constantly fatigued and felt depressed. I wanted desperately to become pain free, energetic and happy. So, I set out to change the direction of my health.

One of my first goals was to find a solution that would end my pain and fatigue and improve my immune system. Second, I wanted to become healthy enough so that I could reduce or stop my medications and my regular trips to the hospital. And third, I wanted to get off the anti-depressants and lead a more balanced life naturally. In one year, the great news is I have accomplished all those goals. My body is healthy again with the help of the Ziquin rejuvenation strategy and products.

My experience compels me to share with you the importance of the Ziquin Educational Group and what they offer as a natural alternative to wellness. I hope my experience will inspire you to find out more about Ziquin. Before I say more, it might help if you know a little bit about me and my chronic health problems.

First of all, I'm forty-two years old and the mother of 4 teenage daughters - two from my husband's previous marriage and two from my previous marriage. I was a single mother for nearly eight years and during that time the stress and fatigue of trying to manage a household with young children triggered many illnesses. For more than 10 years, I've been plagued with health problems ranging from asthma, chronic female problems, depression, high cholesterol, fibromyalgia, meningitis, severe migraines, irritable bowel syndrome, a large fibroid, weight gain, ulcers, a lump in my breast, and rapid heartbeats.

For more than ten years, I woke up every day to pain throughout my whole body and saw weight gain. Even though I went to the gym and exercised like a maniac, I still gained weight as a result of being on medications. I had been spending a fortune seeing four or five doctors weekly, including a psychiatrist and physical therapist.

All of the doctors seemed to think that pharmaceuticals would alleviate my problems and the psychiatrist said that my illnesses were all in my head. So, he put me on antidepressants. Over the five years I was on them, all of the medicines seemed to destabilize me. I was given many different brands to try: Zoloft, Nexium, Neurotin, Allegra, Trazodone, Imitrex, Lexapro and others. The side affects aggravated my ulcers and even more seriously, they made me feel suicidal.

I was an accountant, but I finally had to quit my job because my ulcers and migraines were so severe. I was really very edgy. The drugs were making me terribly ill. To make things worse, I had severe migraines which would cause me to vomit and to become dehydrated. In fact, I would be in the hospital four or five times per month getting Demerol shots for my migraines. I felt I was losing control of my body and was wondering where I could go to find safer solutions to my mountain of health challenges. My medical bills ran over $10,000 a year for a decade. All I did was make doctor's appointments and take pharmaceuticals. Combine all of this with the stress of raising teenage daughters, and it was unbearable.

In 2004, I found a lump in my breast and after a mammogram, the doctor suggested doing a lumpectomy. I just didn't feel like going "under the knife." I wanted to explore other options. I searched elsewhere for help, looking for an alternative and natural ways to restore my body back to health. One day, I saw an article in the newspaper about the Ziquin Educational Group and one of its founders, Dr Louie Yu.

Upon meeting Dr. Yu, he changed my life, and I am deeply grateful. I decided to begin the Ziquin Rejuvenation Strategy and products. I immediately began taking the Ziquin Mind and Body Tonic, Energy Endo Biotics, and double amounts of EFA Complete and All Xymatic Relief.

I began in April of 2004 and for the first three months, it was not a pleasant experience for me. Apparently my body had immediately chosen to go into a retracing phase. I learned that this was a “detoxification period”. I had no increase of energy, no sense of well-being or vitality. I felt a little more ill then usual. My joints ached, I was nauseated and had a flu-like feeling all of the time.

Within the first ninety days of being on the products, I went back to get another mammogram. The doctors couldn't believe it. The lump in my breast had totally dissolved! I was so happy!

Yet, I continued to retrace very strongly, I wanted to give up. In fact, every day I wanted to stop taking the products. I thought, "I'm sick of this process. I just want to quit! Give me back my pharmaceuticals!"

I realized I had to hang in there for at least another ninety days or longer to get out of this survival mode. After all, there was a lot my body had to do in order to rebuild its health. I had to be realistic and patient about the recovery and cleansing time— I am glad I did. Eventually, I began the revitalization process. I noticed my moods were better and my irritable bowel syndrome was improved. Plus, my ulcers were much, much better.

I was feeling so good that in August, 2004, I went on an Alaskan cruise with my family which included not only my daughters and husband, but also my parents, brother and sister. This type of trip with all these family members is usually very stressful for me, but I was surprised this time. I had a great time! White flour, caffeine and alcohol have always been bad for me, but I was able to eat and drink them for the first time. My stomach did not hurt and my irritable bowel syndrome was gone! Plus, I was not tired. As you know, nighttime does not exist on a cruise. It's "go-go-go" all the time with numerous activities, meals, and special events. I couldn't believe how happy I was and how energetic I was on the trip.

Then, I hit a plateau in December, 2004. I started feeling sick again with that flu-like feeling. It was another cycle of cleansing. This time, it lasted only a couple of weeks.

Before Ziquin, I weighed 165 lbs, which is very heavy for my 5'4" frame. When I took those antidepressants, I put on weight in spite of going to the gym and working out harder. As you can imagine, gaining weight when you're exercising more and eating the same, is extremely frustrating and disheartening. But, after taking the Ziquin products, my weight began to fall off naturally.

When I went back to my regular doctor, a general practitioner, she discovered that my fibroid which had been the size of a grapefruit, had decreased to the size of a pea. When asked what I had done, I told her (and all my doctors) about the Ziquin products. They said, "Is that all you've done?" They seemed to be in shock and even disbelief. I even took the products into my physicians and showed them what I was taking.

After looking at the Ziquin products, my acupuncturist said, "Well, some of these ingredients are the same things I've been giving you already."

I said, "I know, but it's the way Ziquin's products are formulated and they way they are delivered into the body that makes the difference."

I'd like to point out that I was told that migraines and other health maladies could be genetic. I know that my firstborn has migraines like I had. Since I was an adopted child, I had no idea if my biological parents had any of my illnesses. However, I located my biological mother and the first thing she did was tell me that she had asthma, migraines and fibromyalgia. My biological mother had been living with all of these. So I was genetically predisposed, yet I was able to do something about it.

Some of my doctors seemed interested in what I had done, and others had no interest whatsoever. However, none of them could deny the fact that I was better - that the fibroid had shrunk to almost nothing and my fibromyalgia was lessened, my energy level high, and my depression gone. My migranes are gone and I do not go to the hospital anymore.

These days, it's peaceful in my home. The change of health has strengthened my relationship with my husband. My relationship with my daughters has improved so much. Before Ziquin, all I did was yell at my daughters. Now, when I look back, I understand where all the yelling came from. I know why I was so angry and irritable all the time. Today, I know it was caused by nutritional deficiencies and unhealthy biological terrain.

Nearly eleven months later and I’ve become a new woman. I've lost thirty-five pounds. My cholesterol has dropped from 224 to 182. The rapid heartbeats and asthma are gone. My fibromyalgia is barely there (75% gone), my migraines are gone, and my depression is gone.

Thank you, Ziquin, for giving me my life back and for allowing me to live my life like others who are happy and well.
