LUPUS - I was diagnosed with lupus and had pleurisy (fluid around my lungs) and pericarditis (fluid around my heart.) My body was inflamed, every joint ached, I had a constant fever, trouble walking, sitting, sleeping and eating. A doctor prescribed Prednisone, Imuran and Plaquenil. At the same time, I increased my supplements and watched my diet. I asked him if he had concerns about vitamins and he said, "Shaklee's a fine company." With my doctor's help, I was able to decrease and eliminate my meds.A positive attitude is crucial. Take it slow, write a list of positive things in your life and don't give up. Drink 16 oz fresh fruit and vegetable juice. Avoid eggplant, white potatoes, green peppers, mushrooms and tomatoes. Avoid sugar, red meat, processed food, dairy and foods that contain chemicals. (When I eat sugar or dairy, I feel horrible and my fingers, hands, knees, feet and face swell.) I eat organic fruits and vegetables. Divide these supplements up with meals: 36 CarotoMax, 10-20 Alfalfa (depending on inflammation), 11 Vita C, 4 Vita E, 3 Formula 1,8 B Complex, 6 Garlic, 100 mg Zinc, 12 Essential Omega-3, 9 Lecithin, 7-10 Cal Mag, 2-4 Vita Lea, 6 GLA, 1 Optiflora pearl and 1 tsp powder, 3-6 Joint Health Complex. Three Tbsp Soy Protein and 1 Tbsp Fiber Plan in 12 ozjuice. Add Physique if you ache a lot. Use Shaklee Cleaners, Enfuselle and drink lots of BestWater. Avoid stress and take naps. Exercise. It relieves stiffuess and joint pain and boosts your spirits. Sue Erdmann
