I’ve dedicated this website to those living with Hepatitis C or
loving someone with HepC that are looking for solutions! Do you
have Hepatitis C and have failed treatment? Or maybe you are like
so many others and you’re a high risk for Interferon treatment?
Or if you were like me, and now hundreds of others that have contacted
me you ‘knew’ right away that the Interferon Combo was not for you!
I’m glad you found me. You’re in the right place!!!
I’ve had my website
up for over 11 years now. I’ll do my best here to try and answer
some questions for you. And hopefully share some ideas about an
Alternative Program that helps support healthier liver functions.
Give your body a fighting chance by simply making a few changes
with your Diet, Life-Style and most important how you think about
yourself. I had Hepatitis C myself. I’ll share how I got my numbers
down and have kept them down! And how you too can live a healthier
and longer life! Give your liver and immune system the very best
Alternative Support out there. Believe me I understand the fear
and stigma that can come with Hepatitis C. And I personally know
just how confusing and scary it can be learning you have ‘it.’ .
And I know just how powerful our thoughts, and our attitudes and
actions can be. How a subtle shift in energy can change every-thing.
And I also know first hand just how wonderful it feels knowing my
body has responded so well to this program. And now countless others
too! I love that I won’t ever need to do the drugs! My intention
here is to share my Experience, Strength and Hope. May you find
the Love and that much needed Peace of Mind here also.
Thank you for letting me share my story…
My name is Diana
Donaldson and today I have a whole new life! I live happily here
in sunny Southern California. I'm 50 years 'young at heart.' And
I found out I had HepC over 10 years ago. Today, by the Grace of
God I've been clean and sober for over 21 years! And I absolutely
love my life! I deeply love God and being of service. I love my
family and friends. And love my work helping others. Today I have
a deep respect and passion for all Life and Healing. I can say that
when I was first diagnosed with HepC in 1998 it rocked my world.
I was so frightened Oh my God!!! I had no idea who to turn to and
it was 4th of July weekend! Thankfully all that's changed. I was
tired all the time, I had horrible headaches and was soooo forgetful.
I thank God I was pointed in the right direction right from the
start. You see I had friends that had done really poorly on the
Interferon Combo and I knew from the gate that day those INF TXs
weren't for me. Not with a geno-type 1a. I'm grateful my Mom had
me call someone familiar with Alternative Therapies!
In July of 1998 I was feeling really run down – just awful. I was
tired almost all the time. I had horrible-horrible headaches back
then and 3 different doctors couldn't find out what they were from.
They weren’t migraines. I looked worn out and was very crabby. That
was depressing too. Why? I was loosing way too much weight. And
started loosing hair in the shower. I had these red itchy patches
on my legs that itched so bad it kept me awake at night. I know
now they were from toxins literally coming out of my skin. My eyesight
seemed blurred and getting worse and worse? So after running routine
blood tests they found my liver enzymes, the AST & ALT were
elevated. My doctor then ran a Hepatitis C serum test and that came
back positive. Then he sent me to a Gastro. The Gastro ran more
tests and the PCR or viral load test came back high over 1 Million.
Right away he wanted to start me on an Interferon Trial. So he ran
a genotype test. It came back Type 1a I had read that Genotypes
1a and 1b are the hardest to treat. When I got back to work I pulled
up a mile long list of side effects! No Way I thought! There's gotta
be another way. He said there were no guarantees and the odds for
a successful treatment for 1a or 1b were the lowest. He said I could
finish the treatment and go through all the possible side-effect
and still not fully respond. What?! I didn’t like those odds at
all! I also read that for most non-responders - that after treatment
the virus comes back with even stronger with avenges. No way! Then
I read the virus mutates after starting TX! Making an even stronger
strain of HCV!!! I already had 10 years in Recovery back then and
was very aware of the dangers of Depression. I had a very dear friend
that had tried the INF TX that dealt with the Depression and he
did not respond well at all. This was a real issue for me! I feel
they had no business starting him on TX with his history - Depression
can be a big issue with Interferon. The clear solution for me was
this Alternative TX program. The one gift I did get that afternoon
in the Gastro’s office was he put the fear of God in me regarding
the real dangers of Cirrhosis and possible Liver Cancer. I heard
him loud and clear that I had to get into definite action and right
away. He stressed big time not just sitting back thinking it would
take care of itself because Hepatitis C does not! It is chronic.
Hepatitis C generally speaking can be slow moving - but not in all
cases. Later that week I was directed to a Natural Doctor treating
his patients successfully with an Alternative Treatment. My parents
were both really into nutrition and my Mom told me about him. I
started this program with the Microhydrin Plus & the Super Foods
back then. And wow! I started feeling better right away. No more
headaches! Lots more Energy! And, I could even see sharper. My eyes
seemed to focus better and weren’t blurry any more! The brain fog
lifted almost immediately and my thinking was clearer. AND 6 months
later my very first blood work came back with ALL my liver functions
100% normal ! The AST & ALT were now 100% in the low normal
range! And the high PCR/Viral Load had dropped down over 2/3rds
down to 330,000 from over 1 million at the first blood-work. Wow!
Respectfully, I need to say that everyone has choices here. And
this is a very personal choice. You may be just finding out you
have Hepatitis C and I’d say please don’t allow yourself to be bullied
into a quick decision. Don’t allow fear to frighten you into a wrong
choice. Do your homework! And please ask lots questions. You are
making choices that can affect the rest of your life. There are
lasting side effects to the treatment. And there could be effects
from just ignoring ‘it’ too and thinking it will just go away. You
can’t imagine how many people have written and called me in the
past 10 years! It’s been awesome. I never imagined! All walks of
life. All kinds of horror stories. And I’ve made all kinds of friends
too. And heard lots and lots of good news back too from people that
have stuck with this program! I’ve heard it all… Firstly, Only you
can decide when it comes time to choose what treatment is best for
you. You could be one of the lucky ones the INF TX works for. Or
you may be one of the Non-responders. Wondering which way to go
next? I personally know lots and lots of people that once failed
TX that are doing excellent now on my program. And there’s been
lots and lots of people that have benefited greatly by cleaning
up their system first and then going on the INF TX. They seemed
to handle the treatment better. I think they were better responders
because they had built up their immune system first. And I think
were better responders because they stuck with their supplement
too while on treatment. All very personal decisions. I believe with
all my heart God has worked by all kinds of means to 'speak' to
me in my learning process. And I'm grateful I've been open to listen.
I learned that Hepatitis C can be silent and deadly. That Hep C
left untreated can continue to do damage silently for years before
you even feel any symptoms. And I’ve learned that you can live with
the virus and live a healthy and strong life. And I’ve watched people
respond and clear it too! I thank God my Mom introduced me to that
doctors and these products, Grateful I have not done the Interferon
TX and won’t. I am so much healthier today than ever and I know
my liver is much happier. Plus you can see the results on my blood
work reports. And you can see the results in the sparkle in my eyes
and the fresh tone of my skin. My skin looked gray back then. I’ve
learned the do’s and the don’ts and I’ll list them here. I.e.: what
to eat and what to stay away from. And I’ve learned what can be
toxic. STRESS can be deadly. So learning to deal with day-to-day
triggers for stress is a must. I let go of cigarettes 8 years ago.
Sugar for the most part. Exercise, Yoga, Walking, Stretching, Meditation
& Prayer all help. Did you know that our biochemistry shifts
and changes with our Emotions? That a simple smile releases chemicals
that heal and relax you. And that ANGER really does 'sit' in the
liver. And that stress really does fuel the dis-ease. So anger and
stress can be harmful to your health. So can Alcohol! Drinking is
like pouring gasoline onto a fire. Learn new ways to respond with
love and forgiveness. I’ve learned not to react to everything. To
let go of resentments. Its you that’s getting ‘burned’ inside and
that’s your liver burning or hurting on the inside not the person
your angry with. Are they or ‘it’ worth it? NOT! Solutions; Deep
Breathing. Just stop and breathe. Take a 5 minute Walk. Stretch.
Acupuncture, Massage, Quantum Biofeedback, Chi Gong, Yoga, and Energetic
Work with a Healer, Prayer and Meditation all help. Almost everyone
I work with here in my practice has had a deficiency in Amino Acids
and various nutrients. Amino Acids are the building blocks for proteins
& neuro-transmitters = energy and brain function. And we need
certain Amino Acids to create healthy Serotonin levels too the feel
happy and balanced. So if your liver is toxic you’re not absorbing
the proper nutrients. Make sense? Read on…
Adding fresh lemon to your water helps detox the liver daily! Drink
more Water! Detoxing the liver and building up your Immune System
to help fight HepC from the inside out made great sense to me. Helping
to raise your pH and make your body less acidic made big sense to
me too. Drinking better water. Eating raw fruits and vegetables.
I had read before that patients with Cancer had done these amazing
cleanses and diets often were soon cancer free. So, I’ve read all
I can get my hands on about raising our pH with Antioxidants. This
Antioxidant Microhydrin is amazing at building up the body’s natural
pH! I truly believe that raising the body’s alkalinity and building
up the Immune System and T-Cells is the way to go. That Doctor told
me more. That I'd be detoxing my system for sometime. He stressed
the importance of these Nano-clustered products. They are more easily
absorbed by an already toxic system which takes the stress off your
liver. This Nano-Clustering is an amazing new Science that means
smaller molecular size. Take the time yourself and read more about
it on the Internet. RBC Life Science Nutritional Products
The
smaller nano-sized molecules takes tons of stress of the liver &
our digestive system breaking all the supplements down to smaller
sizes = deeper absorption. Makes sense to me! These products also
help detoxify & clean up the system faster. Which builds our
Immune System faster. Digestive enzymes with Probiotics are amazing.
Eating yogurt and taking Acidophilus all help you clean up your
system faster creating healthier bowel flora. Also, did you know
that if you have taken a Anti-biotic in the past year that it has
most likely wiped out all the ‘friendly flora’ out of your gut?!
And it’s this friendly flora that fights off the bad flora or bacteria.
That’s why many times people’s immune system can be greatly weakened
by what helped them initially… Digestion Formula = Digesting our
food better helps with better absorption of nutrients which helps
your body heal itself even faster. Taking Digestive Enzymes helps
with better Digestion, proper Colon function and Liver & Gall-bladder
function = better absorption of your nutrients and a healthier stronger
Immune System. Does your skin itch? The itchy skin I ‘used’ to have
I found out was from poor Bile flow. It was a result of toxic build
up of poisons in the Gall Bladder and Liver. Start cleaning up your
system and you’ll really help get the junk moving out. So, once
I started this program I began detoxing all those poisons and my
skin cleared up almost immediately! Relief! And no more hair loss
in the shower either! Better absorption. Also, because of low absorption
many people with hepC are lacking trace minerals, which are essential
for healthy skin, hair and proper sleep. How’s your sleep? I used
to toss and turn all night and today I sleep really good! Deep,
healing REM. Magnesium for one is essential for good sleep and healthy
relaxed muscles. It’s so good for Stress too. So, We need certain
minerals for proper sleep and minerals and B Vitamins fight Stress
too. Did you know the Liver is a major chemical factory? It cleanses
and purifies the blood and our entire system. So if the Liver &
Spleen are toxic it can mean your blood is toxic and all those old
poisons and toxins are not exiting the body properly. Where are
they?! Floating around in your blood stream that’s where! No wonder
I used to be tired all the time and couldn’t think clearly. I was
a toxic mess I’m sure clear down to a cellular level. Not the case
today!
In 1999 I attended the NIH National Institute of Health’s “Complementary
and Alternative Medicine in Chronic Liver Disease” Conference in
Bethesda, MD Pretty official stuff! I paid my own way as a patient
wanting to learn. I took lots of notes and came back and put my
website together hoping to share what I had learned. At that first
Alternative Conference I heard right away to stay away from all
products 'fortified' with Iron. Iron can be very toxic to a challenged
liver. That means products like almost all cereals, soups, some
dairy and some breads almost all can be loaded with fortified iron.
I learned to read labels. And learned that Iron and Vitamin A can
progress liver scar tissue. Fibrosis, if its already present. That
means if you have Fibrosis or Cirrhosis Iron can speed up the scarring
progression! A big no-no. I haven’t had a biopsy and most people
do. I may have had some damage because of certain outside symptoms
back in 1998 that gratefully after this program have ALL cleared
up! I had dark circles under my eyes, redness on the palms of my
hands and brown ‘liver spots’ on my hands and they’ve ALL gone away.
I’ve thought it important to avoid Iron and Vitamin A as much as
possible! I think its wise for anyone with Liver Disease to. Did
you know that fats and sugars are really hard for the liver to break
down and process? Stay away from fried foods. Also, Please use caution
with using certain herbs too. Many have naturally high amounts of
Iron and many are simply toxic to the Liver. Valerian root, certain
mushrooms, Clove, Comphry and more can be very toxic. Mega-Vitamins
many times can be dangerous too. Most Multi-Vitamins out there are
man-made supplements that are 100% high in fortified Iron and most
times man-made Vitamin A not natural Beta-Carotene. So, don’t take
them! We need vitamin A in its natural form Beta-Carotene like from
carrots. Please avoid toxic amounts of Niacin too. Sugar is so hard
for the liver to process and I was eating too many cookies and junk
food. I have learned that people that crave lots of sugar oftentimes
are loaded with Candida a type of fungus that’s really hard on the
system too. Do you crave sugar? So cleaning up my system meant dealing
with the sugar issues too. It’s all changed for the better today.
Promise! I avoid RED MEAT! I haven’t eaten it now for years. Did
you know that Red Meat takes 15-17 hours to digest? Think about
it …All that energy that could be going to building up your Immune
System and building up your T-cells to fight the virus is going
to digesting that meal. Is it worth it? Red meats if they’re not
organic also loaded with toxins i.e.: hormones and pesticides. And
most of us don’t need more Estrogen. Did you know that RED MEAT
is LOADED with IRON? Remember high iron load can progress liver
scarring. So what do I eat now?! All kinds of yummy things like
Turkey and Salmon, Fish and pasta. I love streamed veggies and I
make a mean brown rice in my rice cooker these days. Did you know
Brown Rice is a protein? I make stir-fry with Chicken and fresh
veggies. And a quick an easy oriental soup with a bag of stir-fry
veggies and a box of low sodium & low fat chicken broth from
Trader Joe's. Please use Sea Salt and avoid high amounts of Sodium.
Sodium can cause water retention/Ascities which can be a big concern.
And most Fast Foods can be extremely high in salt. Also packaged
soups, many cheeses and even corn flakes are loaded with salt. A
natural salt flavor can be found in Braggs Amino Acids and they
are so healthy for you and great flavor without the salt. And I’m
a big fan of pink Himalayan salt. Most cereals are loaded with iron
too. I loveeee my GREENS! Avoid Ice Berg lettuce because of the
pesticides and go for Romaine or mixed fresh greens. Organic really
is better = no pesticides! I make my own fresh salad dressing from
Olive Oil, lemon, rice vinegar, & a garlic mustard. All fresh
with none of the toxic preservatives and sugars you get in bottled
salad dressings from the market. Most fruit juices are loaded with
sugar too! Not good… Check out the labels. I don’t drink juice any
longer. I put lemon in my water at least twice a day. And I use
rice milk in my smoothies and over my oatmeal every day. And I’m
loving pure Pomegranate syrup you can add to water now. Did you
know that Pomegranate juice also builds up your platelets along
with your Immune System?! And I’m a fan of something called Wayne’s
Silver Water Products (http://www.youthfulnessreclaimed.com/products)
for helping get rid of parasites and building up our Immune Systems!
You can order the "Clean me Up Program " from here - Or give me
a call, I have all the products. Today, I eat many more rich green
foods like salads, spinach, and broccoli and I started making fresh
fruit smoothies every morning years ago. Wayne Silver Water Greens
are packed full of all kinds of Greens and rich nutrients , like
Spirulina. I still switch out and use the Spirulina Powder and Green
Phyto Power in my Vita mixer from RBC. Both Products are awesome!
All loaded with vital Amino Acids for energy, good brain function,
hormone support & more, essential Vitamins & Minerals. (Email me and I’ll send
you my smoothie recipe !) And I use Rice Milk now instead of fruit
juice. Did you know that Spirulina is naturally loaded with 20 Amino
Acids! I purchased a very strong water filter too. It took literally
less than 5 minutes for me to install by myself on top of the counter.
Now I rinse all my veggies and fruits with this filtered water so I don’t have to worry about ingesting the toxins from the tap water.
And
just this week there was a local water scare. I've learned just
how bad pesticides are. I live in Los Angeles county and believe
me you don't drink the tap water here. I've learned that everything
we eat is literally processed through our livers. So why make an
already challenged liver work harder by eating pesticides. I found
out right away that my body responded with more real energy and
better memory and even keener eyesight when I started these products.
And even more when I started to change what I was eating and what
I was thinking! Remember too that we absorb through our skin – so
if you work around chemicals like paints or heavy cleaners please
open the windows and wear gloves! And I put a filter on my showerhead
to combat chlorine. This goes for everyday cleaning the house too!
Be very concerned about mold & mildew. Clean up the shower &
kitchen sink areas. If you know you have mold – get rid of it or
move out. Many people have mold under carpet they’ve cleaned over
and over and don’t realize it. Less chemicals the better for the
Liver. I use environmental products from places like Trader Joe’s
here in California. GO GREEN it’s so much healthier. MOST of the
cleaning products we grew up with are TOXIC! So GO GREEN !!! Email
me and I’ll give you some ideas !
Why This Program
and This Company? = Nano-Clustered = Better Potency and Deeper absorption
and they are super powerful at Immune Stimulation!!! I’ve met the
Scientists and Doctors behind this company and feel extremely safe
taking these products myself for HepC too. I have looked high and
low and researched more and more - And I feel confident with sharing
about them. Everything is nano-clustered for greater absorption.
The base of the program is something called Microhydrin Plus, along
with Digestive Enzymes , and another power Immune stimulant , and
Fatty Acids. Give me a call or email me and I can help you order
and save money. For those of us that have been around Alternative
Medicine now for a while, there was also a very well known Hepatitis
C Trial done years ago by Dr. Berkston. In Dr. Berkston’s research
he confirmed excellent results with measured amounts of Milk Thistle,
Selenium, Vitamin C, and Vitamin E, NAC & Alpha Lipoic Acid.
ALL of these Antioxidants are in the Microhydrin PLUS!!! You don’t
have to run around and spend the time and money buying everything
separate. There’s a program you’ll follow. And, Did you know that
by taking Vitamin E and Selenium at the same time that it synergistically
creates an even stronger antioxidant! Powerful stuff. FYI - men
need more Selenium than women. The good news is, Your liver given
the proper nutritional support can & does regenerate healthy
new tissue. Think about how strong this statement is and its been
medically proven! You’ll read on all kinds of HepC website now about
how Killer T-Cells fight off the HCV Virus. And how only the HCV
Virus and the HIV Virus (Aids) are the only viruses that live on
the inside of the cell unlike most pathogens that live on the outside
of a cell. This makes HCV harder to treat or kill because it’s actually
inside the cell-wall. Certain Antioxidants are also anti-viral’s
that build up our own interferon and Natural Killer T-Cells. Killer
T-Cells are the only cells that can penetrate the Liver Cell wall
to get in there and destroy the Virus.
Add fresh lemon
to your water every morning – all day! Fresh Lemon is a GREAT Liver
detoxifier! Did you know that the enzymes in fresh lemon help to
stimulate our body's own natural Glutathione? And that Glutathione
is a natural and essential detoxifier in the liver! And there are
many that will confirm that supplementing store bought L-Glutathione
is just a waste of your money. That your body will create its own
Glutathione when you supply the natural Vitamin C! I’ve heard Lance
Armstrong’s Sports Doctor speak here in Los Angeles and was amazed
on his knowledge on the importance of Omega 3 Fatty Acids. How they
are essential to proper Nero-Transmitter functions. Good sources
of Omega 3’s & 6’s are: DHA or “I.Q.” , Flax Seed Oil &
Flax Seed Meal, Fresh Fish, Fish Oils, Olive Oil and Coconut Oil.
I drizzle a little Flax Seed Oil into my Spirulina Smoothie everyday.
And take the I.Q. (DHA) from my program too, and I spread organic
coconut oil on my toast now instead of butter!
I've attended Hepatitis conferences all across the country. I have
to say I have not been that active say the last five years. I’m
happy and healthy and living life now! Like I said earlier the first
few years I attended the NIH Conference for "CAM" as a
patient, then I flew to San Francisco after being asked to speak
at the big Hepatitis C Global Conf.on an Alternative Treatment panel
with my doctor at the time. And what an honor that was! The following
year I went to Boston for the AMA Conf. and my mom went with me.
The AMA Conf. included Alternative Treatments for HepC along with
Clinical TXs panels. And I’ve had a booth set up for "Alternative
Hope for HepC" there and in Houston at the Hepatitis Magazine
conference. I have met so many wonderful people over the years.
And you can imagine how many 'experts' on all sides of the coin.
The strongest voices for me have always been people like you and
me - the ones living with HepC. We are the ones that 'know.' We
know we’re not nuts when our doctors tell is the liver has no pain
but we feel it. We’ve felt the aches & pains every morning.
We know what its like to be scared to death when we got the news.
And we know how it feels to jump with joy getting great news back
with excellent blood work improvements. My local doctor today even
passes out my cards to her patients that want to learn more about
what they can do to support healthier liver functions and better
quality of life. Now, How about that! She’s awesome! I talk to people
almost everyday from calls from my website! And I love it! So please
do give me a call. That’s why I have my website up!
"What should I get started with?" What’s the best program for me?
Microhydrin Plus for sure, plus the Super Foods either the Spirulina
or add the Green Phyto Powder in your smoothie, Digestive Enzymes,
and the Immune 360 is very powerful. You can order it month to month
through me at a discount , or become a member and get an even deeper
discount with an auto-ship.
So,
If you’re ready to get started right away you can give me a call!
I’d love to talk with you and I can take your order over the phone
and ask you some questions too, then I call it into the company
for you. So please feel free to call me PST time at: 877 367-9875.
Thank you again for visiting my website. I've met some amazing people
on this life journey the past 12 years! My life is richer and so
much healthier now with all the wonderful friends and memories.
God Bless you all! Please do come back and visit anytime. I’ll be
here. And please do pass along my link! Many thanks! May God Bless
