.........Indeed Reliv International has solved my search for nourishing my family. How can a nutritional formula make such a difference? My answer is the real life proof in my son Sachin and my mother Saroj.

.........Sachin was born 28 years ago, 10 weeks premature, and 2 pounds at birth. His doctors expected him to live to 11. At 8 months he was not reaching developmental milestones and we received the devastating news - his diagnosis was severe Cerebral Palsy and Mental Retardation. We set about preparing and learning to take care of him to give him a comfortable life - what little he would have.

.........At the age of 19 Sachin was completely dependent on others for his daily care. He was wheelchair bound unable to sit, stand or walk. He had no speech. He was not able to communicate with us even his basic needs. He needed constant supervision and required us to care for him through intuition and anticipation alone. He suffered from constant constipation, coughs, colds and the flu. It was also apparent that he was in severe joint and muscular pain and had developed tight contractures and deformities in his big toes, knees and wrists. We felt helpless and wondered how to help him and how long will he survive in such pain. Most depressing was that medicine only offered surgery as an option but the problem was in his brain not in his muscles.

.........By the grace of God, in October of 2000 a family friend insisted that we try the Reliv products on our son. After just one scoop of Reliv's Kids Now, we finally got rid of 19 years of constipation. Sachin started to feel better and as a result started to respond to therapies at his school. He was more attentive, was more able in physical therapy and even learned to be more meaningful in his head shakes for answering simple questions. My curiosity got the better of me and I attended a regional conference held by Reliv in Atlanta in February of 2001. The scientific research staff headed by Dr. Carl Hastings encouraged me to make sure that Sachin got to consume more that just the kid’s formula as his body required far greater level of help to reach whatever potential he had.

.........At the age of 28 now, he should have developed a curvature of the spine, have experienced a dislocated hip and should be in severe joint pain. He is not suffering any more and his back looks quite normal and straight. In 2006, his bio-feedback doctor noticed that his contractures were dissipating! What great news! Also, Sachin is relatively pain free now and we know because he has traveled the long arduous trip to India in Dec of 2006 and 2007. He traveled very well and was healthy the whole time there.

.........Today I say with full knowledge and confidence that we have defied medical allopathic science as Sachin is healthy (blood work is proof); medication free and no longer suffers from cough colds or the flu. We are seeing neurological and physical changes that according to the description of his diagnosis are not supposed to happen! I am thrilled that I only take him to his physician for his annual wellness visit. We do not use the health insurance policy except for equipment now. He is happy and looks good. His smiles and vocal sounds show us that he is not in pain any more. He will look or wave at the direction he wants to go to. He has developed the ability to let us know things like he wants to watch TV by waving at it. After 27 years he finally started to fight with his Dad to watch TV during Dinner. (All those hockey games every night watching the Penguins win!!!) Of course Dad wins. But Sachin still tries to get his way by waving at the TV and looking at his Dad and making sounds to get his attention... a progressive action that he never did before.

.........I cannot thank Reliv enough for the challenge we face today with Sachin. We must make residual income for Sachin to live off of when we are gone! He is going to outlive us!

.........My mother is 79 and suffers from elevated BP, Macular Degeneration and severe bone on bone arthritis in both knees. So far her BP medication is working so well, that the strength has been lowered. Her Macular Degeneration is under control, her vision has actually improved. Her knees ache every so often prompting her to drink extra amounts of Reliv to be able to stay active and remain 98% pain free. I am thoroughly enjoying her company,

.........Today I am having trouble keeping quiet about what I have experienced! I want to share with other care takers who are responsible for nourishing their families about the benefits of adding Reliv's products to their daily intake. It is my version of alternative health insurance. I plan on aging gracefully like my mother and predict that I will just die of old age and not a chronic condition. I am on a personal mission to help 100 diabetic patients bring control on their health with Glucaffect by June 2010!
