Hi Roy,
My mother called me yesterday to tell me about the news blurb on CoQ10. She has forgotten that I mentioned using CoQ10 several months ago to her...somehow if it is on TV news it has some legitimacy!!!

Anyway, several months ago I got her on Coral Calcium and to date she is doing great. She lapsed twice and returned to moving like a snail until I would nag her to take her CC. She was having difficulty getting out of bed and now calls me to tell me that she went to see Doc Severenson on Monday night, then invited 12 friends over to play bridge, etc. She takes between 6 and 9 a day, and when she dwindled to 2 or less she fell right back to her previous condition. She doesn't have tremors, she is stiff as a board and even tripped downtown on an elevated cobblestone and smashed out her front teeth! This happened just before I got her on the CC.

Last week she went for her checkup and her doctor noticed how much better she was doing. My mother told her she was taking CC and the doctor hadn't heard of it...suprise suprise...my mother was nonetheless suprised by it!

I've repeatedly told my mother that CC is just ONE nutrient that she could be taking...and that there are many other things which would help her get better. Unfortunately 'degenerative disease' and 'incurable' have been inbedded in her psychie. Coral calcium comes in a capsule (pill)...and I think it somehow reinforces her belief that drugs are what cure.

She's agreed to go on a probiotic and take Udo's choice. I cannot however get her to drastically change her diet and exercise. She is walking much more now that she has so much energy.

Like to know what you have been doing that has helped you. I can't express how miraculously the CC has worked for her. Please try it. There are many web sites that sell it and if you buy a larger order you get a substantial discount.

I'd suggest you find yourself a copy of The Calcium Factor by Robert Barefoot. It is technical and NOT light reading...the kind of stuff I gravitate towards. I think it is about $16.

Got my father to start juicing for my mom...that didn't last long though. He's in charge of her diet so I can't really interfere. I'm hoping that little by little my mother with feel good enough to really take charge of her own health. I've offered to get a colonic and do Schulze's or Sam Biser's 'incurables' program with her. I'm waiting for her to tell me she's ready!

Please let me know what has helped you. I'm always looking for things to pass on to her!

I hope this helps you to feel more informed about taking this for your benefit.
