Buyer beware.


My youngest daughter was diagnosed with a rare blood disorder called Hemoglobin H Disease back in March 2007. She easily gets tired and more proned to getting sick.

Each time she gets sick her immune shuts down to a point where she needs a blood transfusion and her spleen would get enlarged to a point where her doctor wants to remove her spleen. As you can see, from a mother's nightmare, the thought of my little one having to go through surgery, which I didn't want.

I was desperately in need to find a more natural solution to keep her away from getting a blood transfusion and from getting her spleen removed! So I used a couple of oils to help her build her immune system, oils such as Frankincense, Lemongrass, Exodus II to name a few, and for her spleen, I used Marjoram essential oil, also she is taken a few other supplements as well.

It has been a little over two years now since she hasn't gotten a blood transfusion, also her spleen went down from 10 inches to 6 inches, they are still are still trying to get me to reconsider removing her spleen.

If anyone that is interested in knowing more about her conditions or want to keep an update on her health, for we do still go for her regular check-up at the Sick Children's Hospital, then please contact me using the link below.

3.Associated topics: immune-system — "DHEA [a component of PD 80/20], an androstene hormone [precursor to estrogen, testosterone, progesterone, cortisone, and other hormones], has been shown to possess a wide range of beneficial biological effects mainly attributed to immune system modulation.... thus leading to beneficial effects in diverse human diseases including resistance to infection, neuroprotection, wound healing, diabetes, hepatic injury, cardiovascular disease, and cancer."Link
4.Associated topics: blood — "Cinnamaldehyde [in cinnamon] has antihyperglycemic and antihyperlipidemic [cholesterol-lowering] actions in db/db mice and could be useful in the treatment of type-2 diabetes."Link
