Here's a sample from Donna M. of what you can expect if you put your mind and body through this life-changing period of three weeks: Dear Chet Since completely quitting dairy products in May (even casein and whey in things like spaghetti sauce) my 11-day menstrual periods (complete with flow so heavy I couldn't leave the bathroom for hours at a time, never mind leave the house) are down to FOUR days with only moderate flow. They dropped by a couple of days a month over the summer! Following this 21-day program was the final "kick" my body needed to get it to only four days long. I'm amazed! My periods have been 7-11 days long since 1971, except for one other time in my life when I cleaned up my diet and ate all rawfor two months. Another dairy-free triumph: I can hum and sing now without clearing my throat. I love to sing in the car, but was always annoyed because I seemed clogged with mucus. Not ever badly,but just enough to never be able to reach the high notes. Now my voice is clear as a bell after 41 years of clearing my throatall the time. Chet, if you ever use this letter in the future, I want people to know I have never eaten large amounts of dairy to begin with. No glasses of milk, no major portions of cheese. Dairy is so harmful (to me) that even trace amounts were throwing my body into chaos and I didn't even know it. Hunting down every last trace of cow's milk in processed foods is something I never tried until this year and I don't hear of people doing this very often. It has turned my life around.Donna M. I get to read wonderful reports like the above almost everyday of the week. You can change your life and improve your health too -- just try the 21-day program.

Just wanted to let everyone know that since I gave up aspartame on 3/10/99 I have progressively gotten better and better. I feel like a much younger person with less pain and more energy. I still occasionally have a seizure/panic attack but I find it is usually due to unknowingly consuming aspartame in some form or another. The most recent episode was last week when I came down with bronchitis and was taking cough syrup. The over-the-counter stuff I took during the day did not have aspartame listed but I have no idea what was in the prescription cough medicine w/codeine that I took at night. I finally quit taking it because I believed it to be the culprit. Suddenly, no more episodes. You'd think that prescription medicine would have to label it just because of the phenalynine, but then I guess everybody these days is ignoring that law. I hope everyone else is feeling well! Sincerely, Phyllis _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________
