Thought I would share a recent unsolicited testimonial that demonstrates the power of nutritional supplements and a willingness to heal.
The key is not the nutritional changes (these are simple); it is the willingness to change, without that there is really vary little progress.
Dear Roland & Cheryl,
I just wanted to thank you for the gift package of Alka Green and Alka Pan. I have dropped from 40 waist to a 36: a loss of 30 lbs so far! You had said to me years ago if I learned this lesson I would maintain my fitness. I did not learn and re-introduced bread and pasta etc, thinking I could manage it. At the time you said, “Bread, specifically white flour, was like a poison to me”. I did get healthy 4 years ago but tried to re-introduce the bread and pasta and again my weight ballooned.
This time I am looking at bread like an alcoholic looks at drink: one drink and I am back on the road. A bit harsh but it works. I understand that I cannot eat bread, potatoes, rice and pasta. This time I have found new ways of eating. I have eggs with spinach scrambled for breakfast and a snack off almonds and cheese. I eat lots of salad (avoiding iceberg lettuce). I eat fish, cheese, beef and chicken mostly. I also enjoy chocolate and anything that is sugar based and not carbohydrate based. This does not affect me as long as in moderation. I have been walking 3.5 miles almost every day, being careful to move from anaerobic to aerobic and I am still able to enjoy a glass of wine. I also drink much more water- I guess about 8 glasses a day, roughly 4 pints and of course 4 Alka Green after every meal and Alka Pan when large amounts of protein has been consumed..
I feel GREAT, I sleep less and have much more energy and each day is filled with activity. I am praying more and better than ever before. I give thanks to the Blessed Mother as I was stranded in Medjugorje for 16 days instead of 7 – since that time I started working on my diet and the prayer has both given and sustained my motivation.
Please feel free to use any of this email to encourage any clients who have similar wheat intolerance like me.
Blessings
