I was introduced to mangosteen by a very good friend, Marlene B. She said she needed help with promoting someone, so I signed up. She sent me a bottle of Mangosteen juice marketed by [Mangosteen Juice]. Marlene called me about a week later to see how I was doing. I told her I did not take it, so she encouraged me to try it. When I took it, I did not notice anything differently. We have since realized that if it were one case I would have had immediately results.

On April 1, 2004, Marlene asked me to call a mutual friend of ours, Dr. Armando G. I explained to him that I was hospitalized with leukemia July 3, 2003 for 14 days, and had received 8 pints of blood. My doctor had told me that I was 2 to 4 weeks from being dead. I had lost 80% of my red blood cell count. I told Armando that I went through the chemo therapy, but I did not want to go through that again. I also told him that my messed up immune system had activated my hepatitis C. The treatment for hepatitis C lasts 48 weeks of taking one shot ($170 each) of interferon per week and one chemo pill ($17 each) every day. Since I did not want to do that, I looked for alternatives. I was invited to a seminar by a friend if mine on alternative healing I even considered going to the Gerson Clinic in Mexico. Dr. G. advised me to take 3 ounces of Mangosteen juice 3 times a day. I started April 15, 2004. May 28th I attended a meeting by Chuck K. Friends that I had known for many years talked about their personal challenges and also their victories. That gave me hope. There were several things that I did not tell them, such as the 4 lesions in my spleen and the 3 lesions in my liver. The lesions were from the leukemia. I also had 2 nodules under my right arm pit and 1 under my left arm pit. The side effects of hepatitis C made me feel like I had the flu 24 hours a day. I had fever all of the time, my joints ached and my eyes always felt hot. I had 2 to 3 migraines a week, and I always had this feeling that I had a cotton ball in my ear. My viral load count was 270,000. I had no energy, and I was always asleep by 9 PM. Just to try to feel better, I took 2,500 mg of Tylenol, but I did not consider the potential side effects.

After 2 weeks of taking Mangosteen juice, symptoms began to go away. My energy level was back to how I felt 3 years ago. On Nov16, 2004, I went for a CAT scan and blood test. I am pleased to say that the nodules under my arm pits are gone. All of my lesions are gone. My viral load count is down to 40,000 from 270,000, and my enzyme count is down to 30(normal) from a high of 90. My liver is functioning normal. My blood count is up to 14.9 from 12.0, and my platelet count is up to 295,000 from 100,000. I learned from a CD by Dr. Frederic Templeman that the mangosteen fruit has some thing that excites the bone marrow to generate red and white blood cells. I got very excited when I learned this information. I have to say, "Thank you, Marlene for saving my life". She never gave up on me. It took 6 months, but I finally came around. Never ever give up on your friends … be persistent! I will never give up on my friends that have health challenges because I know that the Mangosteen juice can help. My goal is to share my story with everyone that I know and meet. I truly believe that everyone will benefit when they discover the Goodness of the mangosteen fruit.
