Dear Colleagues:

I hope you are well and enjoying your spring. If you only get the snail mail version of this newsletter, I encourage you to change to email (just email or call us) as the email version gets a few extra little announcements periodically. For those who didn’t get the email version I would like to announce the launching of the www.morindasupreme.com website. I revised the section on it called product review with new info and dose recommendations. There is also a research link with journal articles on Morinda and its benefits. I want to get right into a case history as I found this one extremely interesting and satisfying.

Case History

Charlene is a 64 year old woman who presented with chest pain and tightness accompanied by difficulty in breathing as well as various joint pains. These had started with an acute attack 6 months previously. Imaging of the heart done at the local hospital showed a 70% blockage of one of her arteries. At that point she initiated a series of EDTA chelation treatments by I.V. with the local naturopath, along with some nutrient I.V.’s. When she appeared at my office she had already had 50 chelation treatments and had some overall energy increase but no improvement in the above mentioned symptoms. The only thing that brought relief was nitroglycerine which she took as needed- which averaged out to be 2-3x/day. She had also seen 2 chiropractors who did “muscle testing” and it had not proven helpful.

On our exam she weakened on the vials labeled parasites, protozoa, mercury, dairy, and rice (AK Test Kits 1-888-323-0625). We put her on the following: Captomer 250 (1 at bed), Basic Nutrients v (2-3x/day), Magnesium Citrate (1 cap 2x/day), L-Carnitine (1-3x/day) all by Thorne Research (1-800-228-1966); as well as Morinda Supreme (it blocked the weakening of the protozoa

and parasites vials and to help the DMSA with the mercury) and Coconut Oil Supreme (both from Mid American 1-800-922-1744,

Within a day Catherine became symptom free and needed no nitro for 13 straight days. On the 14th day there was a temporary return of symptoms and the need for the nitro. On our re-exam we found she was reacting to the Captomer at this point and dropping it returned her to a symptom free status. We kept her on all the other supplements and added Thorne’s Ultra Chrome as she said that Chromium usually helped her with her blood sugar issues and she strengthened on it. It is now a month later and she is still doing wonderfully.

Letter and Case Histories From Lewis Cone DC in Dallas

Dear Michael: thanks so much for the checkup during the one-on-one seminar with your. I enjoyed getting caught up on what was new during the last 5 years or so with your protocol. I am feeling much more energetic after getting on the nutrition and I will say that I think the Morinda Supreme (Mid American Marketing 1-800-922-1744) is doing a great job since it is the only anti-microbial I am taking and I had tested positive for every type of infection except yeast! I am waking up without an alarm clock now early in the morning and not crashing during the middle of the day with the urge to collapse in a deep nap. Thanks a bunch.

I do have a story for you that you wanted to hear about. About half a year or so ago I had a young man come to see me for help with fatigue. He was desperate since he was a nationally ranked sprint bicyclist and his fatigue was preventing him from being able to perform well. On top of that, he had been tested by his racing team MD with a blood test and he was positive for Epstein Barr virus. The medical doctor's approach was to tell him that he should not compete until this was out of his system (for 4 or 5 months!) and also to not even get his heart rate over 100! So not only could he not compete he couldn't even train. When he came in we did your protocol and he tested positive for virus and Arabinex negated it. He also tested to need iodine/tyrosine, basic nutrients 3, and super EPA (all Thorne Research 1-800-228-1966). He tested to be allergic to a few foods (I forget which ones) and I desensitized him to the foods. I had him avoid the foods for 2 weeks, take his supplements, and come back for a re-evaluation in 2 weeks. He called me excitedly about 1 week later saying his energy had jumped up quite a bit. He needed to have a blood test done to verify if the Epstein Barr virus was out of his system to be allowed to compete again. We ran a blood test and it showed that he was virus free and that was all he needed to jump into training and racing again. We did retest him and he needed to stay on the multi and the iodine/tyrosine as well as super EPA. I heard a month or so later that he had won the national championships in New York for his particular racing distance! I was very proud to be a part of getting him up and running again and I have his winning jersey pinned up on my wall. Thanks for showing me how to do this nutritional work.

I wanted to let you know of another success story that I have had. It involves the Morinda Supreme as part of the process. A month ago a woman and her

husband came to my office and wanted to get checked out for some chronic health complaints. The woman was complaining of chronic fatigue (enough that she couldn't work as a nurse anymore), a chronic sore throat, fungal infections on her foot, her stomach hurt on the left side, she had a low appetite, a chronic headache, a flare up of shingles, an active Epstein Barr virus test, she got feverish with any physical activity, a hypothyroid, and a problem with belching. Her husband had complaints of mostly fatigue and skin infection. Upon testing they both tested positive for yeast/fungus. The wife was allergic to corn, almonds, coffee, and chocolate. I tested that Morinda Supreme (1-800-922-1744) negated the fungus and she also needed L-carnitine and Basic nutrients 4 (Thorne). I put her on the anti-yeast diet as well as her husband with his specific nutrition. They both came back 2 weeks later and reported feeling better but not yet what you would call "great." I had stayed in contact with email and suggested they bring in an air sample from the living room, kitchen, and bedroom. On the second visit they both tested positive for yeast/fungus still. I checked their air samples and sure enough they both weakened on the air from their bedroom and Morinda negated the air sample. I am new to Morinda so I suggested to them both that they up the dose to 4 scoops a day and do a thorough bedroom cleaning with a water/bleach solution. Both husband and wife tested to need the same nutrition. They said that they would also add some fans under their pier and beam house to air out the bottom of the house. A two week follow up was today and the woman stated that she has none of her original complaints with the exception of wanting just a little bit more energy. She is now working full time at a hospital as a nurse doing 12 hour shifts and is handling it fine. The husband had none of his original complaints and enjoys taking the Probiomine as he is a competitive cyclist. She tested to need Basic 4, Super EPA, L-tyrosine, L-carnitine, and to need to continue to take Morinda on a maintenance dose (1 scoop per day) for a while longer. I have high expectations that the nutrition will bring her energy levels up to what she wants. She stated that although she is essentially yeast-free she wants to continue the diet with the exception of adding in cottage cheese. Thanks for the testing protocol. I am sure that I would not have had great results if you hadn't shown me how to test air quality and also suggested to frequently test couples together because they often share infections. Thanks again from me and a happy couple.

Sincerely,

Lewis Cone, DC
