"I've had Extreme Back Pain for over 30 years. "

Good-Bye Pain - Hello Noni

How does one begin? First of all, I thank "our Lord" for putting the Noni trees on our planet.

I'm also thankful the Lord created Dr. Ralph Heinicke who pioneered the study of the alkaloid xeronine which is so abundant in the Noni plant which lead to the understanding of Noni's impact on the body to cause cellular regeneration and increased cell function, as well as the other scientists, in giving them knowledge and determination to learn so much about the Morinda Citrifolia plant.

I've had extreme back pain for over 30 years. My chiropractic care made me feel better, but I knew that I would always remain in their constant care. In 1990, I had my first CAT scan. They found a swollen disc in my lower back. It showed arthritis in the surrounding area. I had some therapy, but I soon realized I simply would have to keep on enduring this pain; it never went away.

As the years went on I had a few freak falls which definitely added to my problems. In 1995, I fell off a horse, and the pain worsened. A lot of physical therapy and chiropractic care was necessary. I also began having a lot of neck and shoulder pain and numbness in my hands and arms, especially at night which caused much loss of sleep as well.

Upon arising in the morning it would take me one-half hour to get my legs moving well and get my back to endure the pain. I now had to seek some new help so I began acupuncture; it helped at first, but I was still experiencing problems with my lower back and ended up with a dropped foot. My chiropractor sent me to my first MRI, thankfully. The test showed the swollen disc, stinosis and spondolytis.

After more acupuncture and manipulation my walk was back to normal. However, I was still experiencing extreme neck and shoulder blade area pain, and the numbness in hands and arms still bothered me.

Two doctors and an occupational therapist told me I had Fibromyalgia. I had more chiropractic care, myotherapy, cranio-sacral therapy, and the list goes on and on. I was seeing a bit of a change with these therapies, but wouldn't you know it, my insurance company discontinued my coverage for these alternative methods.

The doctor costs and out of pocket expenses became so extreme that I could no longer pay for them, and simply had to endure the pain.

I've been on good vitamins and herbs with no noticeable benefits; I had tried anti-inflammatory drugs for a long time and decided they really weren't doing the job, so I made a decision to stop putting these drugs into my body and endangering my liver and kidneys any longer.

One evening the pain was so great that I almost admitted myself into the hospital.

It's a good thing I didn't because the very next day I was introduced to NONI!  I read the information and thought, "What did I have to lose?"

That day was February 26, 1997, when I took my first portion of Noni. On that day, I physically worked hard away from home; still had pain, but when I arrived home I had an unusual amount of energy and endurance so I began cleaning the house for three hours. My adrenaline helped me through till 11:00pm, and my body had a sense of peacefulness about it.

The second day on Noni was a ver rushed day. I noticed I didn't have as much arthritic pain in my lower back; I actually had a warm knitting feelling in that area. It seemed amazing, and I wondered if I was imagining this!

The third day I awoke and found I had slept through the night. My hands and arms weren't numb anymore, and the greatest thing of all was that I had no pain in my neck, shoulders or back.

I haven't felt this pain-free in years! And also, my teeth which were sensitive to hot and cold are now quieting down.

I THANK GOD FOR THE NONI JUICE EVERY DAY!
