Hi Truman,
It is Melinda Jacobson from (now Utah). I am sending a picture so that you remember who I am that is bugging you all the time. We met in Oregon just over 15 years ago. My how the time flies…. Wow that picture is a little big. So sorry. I don’t know how to make it smaller. Oh jeesh I will also attach a family picture. I am sure you remember my parents. Most of the grandkids in the picture would not be here if I had not met you all those years ago. Actually all but the 2 oldest boys got here with your help. That is a big deal….. I have a new challenge in my life that I am tackling head on and would like your input. I had a total hysterectomy in Oct. because we found A-typical cells in my uterus lining. Everything is great, no cancer, I am so blessed. But the strangest thing has happened since….. My HA1C has jumped to 6.2 from 5.2 so this puts me so close to diabetes. I started a month ago taking my mom’s Diabetes Formula Drops that she got from you several years ago. The formula # is 1029 I think. The bottle is pretty worn. I have worked up to 20 drops 3x daily. I feel amazing!!!!!! I have cut my calories to 1,600-1,700 a day and no more than 150 carbs per day. I lost 13 lbs. in just a little over 2 weeks which is wonderful. I am also taking 15 drops of the Dandelion Root drops and my blood pressure dropped and is maintaining normal again…. YAY FOR ME!!!! My budget is limited at this time since we are sending our oldest son on an LDS mission for 2 years so I guess I need to know if I am making the best choice in choosing your products. I will give you a list here of what I am taking on a daily basis….
1: Morning – 20 drops Diabetes Formula
15 drops Dandelion Root
2- 200 mcg. GTF Chromium
1 Protandum (ingredients:Calcium 77 mg. , 675 mg. proprietary blend of Milk thistle extract, Bacopa extract, Ashwaganda extract, Green tea extract, Turmeric Extract.
Lunch & dinner: 20 drops Diabetes formula, Dandelion Root 10-15 drops. Just one more GTF chromium so a total of 600 MCG per day.
Bed time I take 300mg. of Perika
I am also on Bio-identical Estrogen which saved me. I went 7 months without any hormone supplementation and just could not stand it one more day. I had terrible memory loss, tears almost everyday, forgetting my words mid-sentence and moodswings from hell. The Bio-indenticals have been such a blessing. I just applied day number 30 today. I have a recheck of my hormones in Aug. Truman in all the research I did pre- surgery I found that having estrogen with not progesterone is a good thing. I am seeing a Nurse Practioner who is wonderful but she wants me only on the estrogen. In my mind and research even with out my ovaries that is not a good thing. You have to have progesterone to keep balance with the estrogen or it can go crazy and cause problems. One being cancer. Am I wrong? Is estrogen without progesterone ok when you are missing your ovaries? I would really appreciate your opinion. My spirit is still feeling pretty strongly that it needs to be balanced and I can’t seem to get past it. I guess what it comes down to is I have not yet found any information stating that is it ok to just be on the estrogen.
I looked through your product list online and could not find the Diabetes formula that I have now. Is there a replacement I could order? I will be ready in a couple of weeks for more. Also since these are about 13 years old (my moms old drops) have they lost some of their potency? When I get the new ones will I continue on with 20drops? The ingredients in this formula are as follows: Huckleberry leaf, Yarrow flower,Juniper berry, golden seal root,Cayenne pepper. I think that is it like I mentioned before this bottle is pretty old and not very legible.
Truman I have trusted your inspiration and vast knowledge for so many years now and would so much appreciate your insight again. You were brought to me all those years ago as an answer to my prayers and the prayers of my family. I will never be able to thank you enough. Please let me know your thoughts and feelings about what I should consider as a “best option for Melinda”. I don’t want diabetes, I can’t do diabetes, I will not do diabetes.” Thank you so much for your time, consideration and prayers. I hope you enjoy our sweet family picture I will send it as an attachment. This was taken 2 months before my sweet mom passed away.
Tons of love,
Melinda Jacobson
