Definition by Mayo Clinic staff..
The term "diabetes mellitus" refers to a group of diseases that affect how your body uses blood glucose, commonly called blood sugar. Glucose is vital to your health because it's an important source of energy for the cells that make up your muscles and tissues. It's your brain's main source of fuel.
If you have diabetes, no matter what type, it means you have too much glucose in your blood, although the reasons may differ. Too much glucose can lead to serious health problems.
Chronic diabetes conditions include type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes. Potentially reversible diabetes conditions include prediabetes — when your blood sugar levels are higher than normal, but not high enough to be classified as diabetes — and gestational diabetes, which occurs during pregnancy.
Diabetes symptoms vary depending on how high your blood sugar is elevated. Some people, especially those with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes, may not experience symptoms initially. In type 1 diabetes, however, symptoms tend to come on quickly and be more severe. Some of the signs and symptoms of type 1 and type 2 diabetes include:
■Increased thirst
■Frequent urination
■Extreme hunger
■Unexplained weight loss
■Presence of ketones in the urine (ketones are a byproduct of the breakdown of muscle and fat that happens when there's not enough insulin)
■Fatigue
■Blurred vision
■Slow-healing sores
■Mild high blood pressure
■Frequent infections, such as gum or skin infections and vaginal or bladder infections
Although type 1 diabetes can develop at any age, it typically appears during childhood or adolescence. Type 2 diabetes, the most common type, can develop at any age and is often preventable.

I live geographically far away from my parents whom I see once a year. My father has the sugar condition and was managing well until 5 months ago. The sores on the soles of his feet were taking a long time to heal and worse of all his feet swelled due to poor circulation. When I walked in to the house I was shocked to see my father reduced in size, and appeared weak and helpless. He could barely walk inching his way with tiny steps. I had come armed with Nikken products. I taped a mini on a large sore and taped little "mag_biens" magnets (which I got at the Hong Kong office) on other sores which were almost healed. Then I put FIR socks on his feet. His feet were blue black and red at the same time and definitely very swollen. He slept on the Ultra kenkopad and I wrapped the travel pad around his legs. The next morning he said that he felt tingling sensations in his feet throughout the night and he slept very
well. When we changed the dressing we were so delighted to see the large sore dry out and some of the pus was drawn out on the mini. We stuck magsteps on his slippers so that his entire feet were in touch with the magnetic energy. In 2 days the swelling was dramatically reduced and the color of the skin became more normal and the blue black marks began to disappear. Best of all he walked to the garden, which he had not done in the last 5 months. Before the application of products on him every step caused him excruciating discomfort and the lack of movement made the swelling worse. His face changed from being weak and helpless to a happy and re-born person. I was 100% convinced with Nikken products before this experience but now I am 200% overwhelmed with enthusiasm to tell more people how they can really really impact the lives of people they care for. We have so much potential in our hands with these great products.

Jerry and I would like to update our testimonial on how our special “Miracle” changed our lives. Our “Miracle” happens to be the Nikken Wellness Products.
In December 1991, I found I had a very serious blood sugar problem requiring injections each day to keep it under control. During the next two years I learned to handle this illness and keep it as close in control as possible.
In November, 1991, I had surgery on an ankle for discomfort in the ankle area on the left foot, which was to be followed by surgery on the right ankle, left and right wrists and left and right elbows. The first surgery (on the left ankle) was not successful, resulting in the feeling not returning to the toes, or the bottom on my foot and heel, not able to lift my foot when walking, excessive swelling from the toes to the hip, and extreme discomfort, the extent I was unable to walk without using a cane, walker or wheel chair This severe discomfort continued and in June 1992, I started experiencing discomfort over my entire body in the muscles and tendons as well as in the head area. I was unable to lie down in bed at night, so slept in a recliner for 2 ½ years with my foot elevated on ice for the discomfort. I had severe discomfort in the colon area, which was blocked and my stomach swollen and distended. I then found I had a disease in the muscles and tendons over my whole body, including the colon area, jaws and teeth and fluid build-up in the head area. In March of 1993 I had an attack with permanent damage to my heart. During this time I was having more and more problems just being able to lead a normal life. I was unable to do my housework, laundry, grocery shopping or cooking meals. I had always loved to work in the lawn and with my flowers, mowing over five acres + 2 lawns each week. Many times while on a short vacation or even to Des Moines to eat out or shop, Jerry had to take me to an emergency room in a hospital wherever we were near. I could only ride in the car for maybe 30 to 40 minutes before I had to get in back and lie down. We had to sell my favorite car (a Thunderbird) because I could not get my leg in and out of the car by myself. After getting stranded a couple of times I couldn’t drive alone again. My worst times were at night … Jerry would stay up with me (sometimes only getting maybe 2 hours sleep a night and working all day). My blood pressure would run extremely high and I filled with fluid around the heart area. My blood sugar was out of control, taking 7 to 10 injections each day with 3 different insulins. The discomfort was unbearable at times, even to the point of going unconscious. From January to July of 1993 I had five injections in the ankle area. In August, 1993, I had five injections in the ankle area. In August 1993, found the bone in the foot, leg and hip was deteriorating (honeycombed) from the loss of calcium. At this time I was
given four injections into the spine area 10 days apart. About a month later the discomfort had reached a level of severity I could barely endure. In February 1994 the specialist I saw for discomfort called and wanted Jerry and I to come to his office. I had just had a test on the discomfort. When we went to see the specialist, he told me my physical condition was serious or critical, the medical profession could do no more for me. The discomfort I was in could cause me to have another attack with y heart, or my high blood pressure could cause serious problems and my blood sugar problem was critical. He had talked to my physician at home, as well as the one that had done the vein study, and had set me up “as needed” for injections of a narcotic for discomfort. She would take 1 to 3 nitro’s a day. The pain specialist said they had done all they could do and she should get her life in order, she wasn’t going to make it. She would use a walker, cane, wheel chair and they were going to amputate her leg. About three weeks later, the latter part of March 1994, a Nikken distributor learned about me and came to see me. She had a set of Nikken magboys with her and spun them over my ankle area. I could feel some difference … she also had a video I saw called “Humans Being More”. We watched the video … then I did something I would normally never do without consulting Jerry … I BOUGHT ABOUT $1,100.00 WORTH OF NIKKEN PRODUCTS!!. When I told him what I had done, his “thought” was “if she thinks it will help, it’s o.k.” AND IT DID!!! Since then Jerry and I have come a long way to total wellness with Nikken. (I also have my foot and leg, which were bad enough a well-known surgeon suggested amputation). Now my blood pressure has gone down. I have my feeling back in my toes, I haven’t taken muscle medicine for 3 years, and when my doctor examined me he said he could see no sign of ever having a heart attack, my heart was perfect. The “secret to success” with Nikken Wellness Products is to use them wherever you have a discomfort. DON’T use them for one day, one week, one month, then decide they don’t work and leave them in the drawer or on the shelf in the closet; that drawer or that shelf doesn’t have a discomfort, you do. Please let it work for you as it has worked for us and for the people we have contacted that are also leading a better quality life because of Nikken Wellness Products. Another thing to remember is … “You can’t put a price on your health, it is priceless!” We feel since Nikken put quality back in our lives and gave me back my life, we should let people know and experience what Nikken has to offer. Each time we find someone experiencing their “Miracle” we get another “Million Dollar Bonus” … we are happy you are sharing our Nikken “Miracle” just by reading this letter.

In many parts of the world it is now recognized that people with diabetes are between 15 and 70 times more likely to undergo lower limb amputation than people without diabetes. This is because certain aspects of the condition influence the feet - making them more likely to be damaged. It is always better to try and prevent problems and doctors now know the types of things that increase the risk of problems with the feet. The risk factors are peripheral neuropathy (altered feelings and sensations in the foot), peripheral vascular disease (poor circulation) and callus and foot deformity (altered skin and bone anatomy). Peripheral neuropathy may cause pain in the feet and it is very
difficult to treat. These factors may or may not be present in every case - the important thing is to make sure that the person is seen by clinic team who can provide good care. The clinic team might include a doctor that specializes in diabetes, a vascular surgeon, a podiatrist (who looks after feet) and an orthotist (that can make/prescribe special shoes). It is most important that you trust your doctors to do the right thing now. There are many things that can be done to help healing and certainly from many points of view that would be the best thing if it is judged possible. If it is still judged possible to attempt healing then our products might be valuable to assist healing. In general, if I meet someone with diabetes and no existing problems with their feet I encourage them to use the magstrides as a
preventative measure and also the sleep system for general health. I feel it is really important that people who already have problems with their feet get advice from a podiatrist or orthotist prior to using the magstrides. This is because sometimes special shoes and insole materials are used to reduce the damage that can be done through pressure and rubbing. Using even the soft surface magstrides can alter the pressures applied to the foot within the shoe and cause problems. People with diabetes should take care to protect their feet and may need such special shoes if they are at risk. I have had orthotists incorporate the magstrides into the shoes Michael I. Weintraub, MD, FACP in the USA has carried out research work that suggests real value of our insoles for people with diabetes and painful feet due to peripheral neuropathy. It has not been shown scientifically that the insoles reverse the nerve damage
but they do seem to have value for the general discomfort. I'm sorry that I can't be too specific - but I hope this helps a little.

About three years ago when I started Nikken my husband mentioned magnetic to his kidney doctor. His reply was "Snake Oil". Well we tried the magsteps first because of foot problems that he had. Almost lost a toe once. Was in the hospital 3-4 times a year. Got infection from even a small cut or scratch, which would usually put him in the hospital to get them cleared up. All of his blood counts were way to high and hard to control. It has now been over three years since he has been in hospital. in September when he went for his check-up his blood counts were better than they were the time before and are all now in the middle to low normal range. Shortly after the magsteps we got the sleep system. He takes the Multi-Multivitamin, For Men, and Garlic. So we believe that the products have helped with his health problems.

Tilley, age 65 and a diabetic was referred to me. I invited Tilley to the Wellness Preview so she could learn about the technologies first, and then she could demo products.... I sat her on the keno seat, put the travel quilt on her lap, put one foot on the magsteps, put a FIR wrap on her hand, necklace around her neck, went to get her a glass of ice tea, and by the time I got back to her 1-2 minutes, she was feeling relief with her neck. By the end of the preview she was feeling really different, thought she might be able to dance! Very relaxed. She also had arthritis in her hands, and the one hand that had the wrap on it was flexible and she could make a tight fist, the other was stiff, she showed me that! I sent her home with a kenko seat to sleep on, she slept all night and woke up ready to get up and
go. (She had a chiropractor appointment that morning, she asked him about magnets, he told her they don't work).... I gave her a relax treatment, put the sleep system on her bed, (she had 6 blankets and an electric blanket that she uses in the morning because her feet are cold in the a.m...)magsteps in her shoes, sleep mask, and magboys. That afternoon she took a friend to get her drivers license and her friend mentioned that she was walking better today... This morning I called her she slept all night on the system (and the pillow!) she said her feet were not cold, and that she was cleaning out a storage shed, she had been walking around her yard all morning, picking things up. I told her not to over do it...take it easy. One night and she is a different person. I love this business, she told me God sent
me to her.... I had to agree!

I had Neuropathies up to my shin and as a new Diabetic I, and of course worried about someday losing my feet. I was given the Magsteps just so that I could play golf more comfortably. They worked and the rest is history. I am still a diabetic and I still have to be careful and occasionally will have difficulty with my sensitive feet. However, I know that they are under control and I have an important answer to my health problem. Now, tell this doctor that only about 15% of the stuff he uses is backed by scientific investigation, and the only thing he would need to see is that all research and scientific data, regarding magnets, states that they "do no harm." Depending on your relationship with him/her you may also say that equals his Hippocratic Oath, to do no harm and that to
withhold due to ignorance could be irreparable harm. I am amazed by the incredible volumes of clinical data that talk about Diabetics saving their appendages from amputations, even when that surgery is scheduled to occur. On of the best ever is John Diehl, DPM of North Carolina.

I met a Nikken distributor who gave her story at a Wellness Preview. She had numb feet and legs for six years. She used magsteps 24 hours a day and got complete feeling back in her legs, feet, and toes after several weeks. Her name is Doris Crowder. Her Dr. was aware of what she did and can verify what happened. The day after we heard her story, we learned of an old friend who had diabetes and was going to have a foot amputated. We went to her right away and she agreed to use the magsteps 24 hrs a day. She said she was to go to the surgeon in 3 days to set the amputation date (in about 3 weeks). When she went to the Dr. after using the magsteps 3 days, he said that her foot seemed to be improving and that they would postpone the surgery. Joan Stroup

From someone suffering from diabetic peripheral neuropathy, I would recommend that you immediately start him with the magstrides. Watch his gait, then add the magstrides and watch the gait again for balance, et al. Then add a necklace and check the gait again. Continue to add more necklaces one at a time and watch the gait. I recently had a lady in my practice that has familial cerebellar ataxia and her gait was atrocious. I saw her in the office one day and followed this procedure. Although she could barely walk in a straight line when she walked in the door, after adding the magstrides and two necklaces, she could actually heel-toe walk in a slightly cumbersome manner. This is where someone places their heel right in front of the other foot's toes and then continues this procedure. We also began adding some super-minis into her pockets and this provided further stability in her balance. I don't know if it has
simply improved her axial strength, therefore effecting better balance, or if it improved the balance as a separate mechanism, but who cares. I would also put your brother in a pair of the socks (find the dress socks superior) to improve temperature regulation and hence will help as much as possible with the perfusion of the distal areas of the feet. With bionutritionals, I highly recommend using the Multi-vitamins, the Supplement For Men, the antioxidant, the Joint formula, the Mental Clarity, and the Digestion. These will provide significant levels of valuable antioxidants, will include the enzymes for effective breakdown of foodstuffs, can effect positive changes in the distal joints, and will begin to address the problems that occur with diabetes mellitus in the macro-vasculature and the micro-vasculature. It may take several months to notice a big difference, but if you hang in there, you will see results. Lastly, there is no question that its essential to stay very well hydrated with the Pi Water, and refrain from all use of caffeine and tobacco, and this is vital!

Hope and life quality for those suffering from Parkinsons
Parkinsons (updated 8-01-06)
Parkinson's disease (also known as Parkinson's, Parkinson disease, or PD) is a degenerative disorder of the central nervous system that impairs motor skills, cognitive processes, and other functions. The most obvious symptoms are motor-related, including tremor, rigidity, slowness of movement, and postural instability. Among non-motor symptoms are autonomic dysfunction and sensory and sleep difficulties. Cognitive and neurobehavioral problems, including dementia, are common in the advanced stages of the disease. PD usually appears around the age of 60, although there are young-onset cases.
The following testimonials are submitted by folks across the nation who have found life and hope with this chronic challenge.
Please call me at 713-725-1842 or email me at John@JohnRStJohn.com for us to see how we can give you hope and solutions to a better quality of life.
Have a blessed day.

What I found works for Parkinsons is using a headband or baseball cap with 4 Nikken mini magnets inserted - 1 over each temple, and 2 on the "bumps" at the base of skull, just above the neck. Twenty-four hours a day is preferable, and the addition of the pillow at night will help even more. And of course the magnetic insoles and the energy mattress are very important as well.

Our friend Gail Linker has done some great work with Parkinsons. Gails e-mail is dtlinker@ctc.net . I have not worked directly with Parkinsons but have had some success with tremors. 80 year old lovely lady, fit and spry had been treated by her physician for 2 years for head tremors and dizziness. She also saw her Chiropractor for the same problem. Neither doctor could offer any help. Her husband bought the sleep system along with magsteps and in about a month her noticeable tremors were almost non existent and the dizziness disappeared.
Her husband didn't buy the products for that condition, he bought them because he was convinced of the benefits to their health the products would offer. He refers to her progress as a side effect, but a really good side effect. Our products will help virtually any chronic condition, how much they will help and in what time frame, we can never predict but you can be assured that over a period of time these products will help. For a person with Parkinsons, I suggest magsteps, necklace, sleep system, and a car seat. If they can get on our nutritionals, that is that much better.

There is a great web site that talks about how Sleep Problems May Complicate Many Illnesses . It says sleep is such a crucial aspect of health that it can have an adverse impact on Parkinson disease. This is all according to a report in a recent issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA). The report is based on studies presented at annual joint meeting of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine and Sleep Research Society. You can
read the entire document at http://www.mercola.com/2000/dec/17/sleep_problems.htm
The other concern is with toxic metals in our drinking water. Just recently, the May 1997 issue of Consumer Reports lists the recall of a Sears water filter made by WaterWorks (Chemical Contaminant/Taste and Odor Filter Cartridge Premium Grade Granular Activated Carbon) that releases enough nickel into the water to turn it green and to cause stomach cramps, nausea, and diarrhea in those individuals consuming the "nickel-contaminated" water. Nickel may be particularly problematic in our environment since it is already pervasive (present in coins, jewelry, eyeglass frames, and many types of stainless steel). Nickel is also a known contact carcinogen and allergen (NIOSH handbook). Ironically, at the same time that nickel presumably uncouples our protective mechanism against cancer, it over stimulates at least one immune response (cytolytic antibody production) linked to cancer-negating activities. Thus, a misdirecting or uncoupling of our normal immune surveillance for cancer, while compensating with an over-escalation of an immune responses that can produce hypersensitivity and perhaps even auto-immunity, essentially describes the immunopathology of nickel poisoning. Nickel is far from being our only toxic metal problem. Recently, exposures to other toxic metals and different combinations (mercury, manganese, copper, lead and copper, lead and iron, and iron and copper) have been associated with a higher incidence of Parkinson's disease.

I have had great success for Parkinson's with insoles, the magnetic Kenkoseat, the wrist wrap and bracelet. Try anything and see how it works for a particular person.

Last week I did a strength test using PiMag living water on my brother in law who suffers from tremors in his hands. He drank about a total of 4 ounces during and after the test. In just a few minutes he asked for more PiMag Living water and held out his glass for me to fill. We were all excited as he did so, because the tremors were almost negligent!!! He said as I poured the water, "I should be spilling every drop you pour in here. Look at this, I am holding my hand almost completely still!"

I recently was called to the home of an 84 year old lady with stage 2 Parkinson's disease. She is determined to stay in her own home as long as possible. Her son and Daughter-in-law have hired aids to care for her. They have her on a tons of nutritionals, have hired a personal trainer and massage therapist. They have gotten her from a wheel chair to a walker, which is quite remarkable. I was called because of her high stress level, poor sleep, and balance. Because she is incontinent I couldn't loan her a sleep system. This poor lady was so weak from lack of sleep that she couldn't even hold her head up. I was forced to cut my visit to 10 minutes. (she reminded me of myself 4 years ago) They purchased a travel pad and sleep mask saying that if she showed any improvement they would buy the
whole system. Spoke with her by phone tonight-she sounded like a different person! She slept right through the night the second and third nights on the pad! Aren't these products something!!!!

About 2 years ago Barbara began to lose her mobility. She progressed from cane to walker to not being able to remain on her feet for more than 10 - 15 minutes at a time. She underwent a variety of tests and evaluations from the doctors and neurologists with no results. They prescribed a variety of medications and eventually she developed a severe discomfort in her right hip. This they could treat with cortisone shots and therapy for temporary relief. The end result was the doctors decided they could do nothing more and she would soon be in a wheel chair. At this point a friend who knew of our situation asked if we would consider alternative wellness products. Our response was if it was chemical, pharmaceutical, herbs, or anything invasive the answer was no. At this time she was taking so many drugs she had to keep a log to keep from over dosing. However, he said no, you simply wear and sleep on these products. He didn't know if they would help but he and others had had amazing results. Since there was no way they
could harm her, we felt at least there might be another option. Since she could no longer lie down in bed she was sleeping in a recliner in our family room. We brought a Kenko Seat for the recliner, magsteps for her shoes, and mini relax pads for her hip. The first night she sat down on the Kenko Seat she fell asleep and slept for four hours straight. It had been several months since she sleep longer than 30 or 40 minutes at one time. Three days later I was setting in my chair in the family room when I realized someone was beside me. I looked up surprised because I could always tell where she was in the house from the noise of the cane or walker. I was amazed, because she was walking without a walker or cane and actually picking up her feet!!! She told me she had walked about half way around the block that morning! She quit taking the medications, stopped the therapy and cortisone shots from that time on. Within a week she had regained much of the mobility she had 3 years before and as we speak she is doing great!
Well - we tried the products with others and they got similar results for a variety of issues. As Barbara will readily tell you, not everyone gets the quick results she was blessed with, but everyone benefits.

When the City of Hope Medical Center dropped their Parkinson's support program, Barbara and her friend, Lisa Hamilton, began work with the city of Claremont to establish a new support group. The group has grown by leaps and bounds! A few of the programs Barbara and Lisa implemented are: a people to people support network, a guest speakers program, regular monthly meetings and a newsletter to help keep their members informed of the latest developments. Barbara's hard work and determination have been recognized by others: On May 9, 2001, at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, Barbara Foster was honored by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors and the Los Angeles County Commission on Aging for her stellar work in the
Parkinson's community. What is truly amazing, however, is that a few short months before starting this project, Barbara's doctors had informed her that she would soon be confined to a wheelchair due to a progressive loss of mobility. Barbara credits Nikken's products and philosophy of balanced living with helping her take control of her health. Eventually Barbara regained her mobility. With the cane and walker gone, Barbara was able to return to her career, public activities and the formation of the Parkinson's Support Group. This is truly an example of people helping people in the best Nikken tradition!)

There is a neurologist Dr. Larry Pierce who is working in Mocksville, NC that spoke at an energy medicine seminar last year about a new magnetic energizing study they are doing called MME (Magnetic Molecular Energizing). I went to see him when I had a disc problem in my neck to see about the alternatives to surgery. They are currently doing the required studies to get FDA approval for Cerebral Palsy, Parkinson's disease and IV disc disease. I met a man who had severe Parkinson's disease a few years ago and came to Dr Pierce as a last resort. He had (according to his assessment) 90% improvement within the first few weeks and had remained stable with only occasional retreatments. It is not covered by insurance, but like the MRI is very safe. It involves sleeping under a large hi
powered magnetic field (similar to an MRI) for 8-12 hours at a time, for several days at a time. All of the people working with this study are very excited about the results they are seeing. The phone number in Mocksville is 336-492-2800. The doctors involved are:

I have an 81 year old that has Parkinsons who is now in New Zealand visiting her family. She started using our products about four years ago and you cannot believe the change in her. In fact, her family emailed me from New Zealand to tell me that the last time they saw Phyliss, she was deteriorating and now they cannot believe it. To my knowledge she uses the magboy, water, sleep system and wraps, and magsteps.

My 82 year old mother was diagnosed over 10 years ago with Parkinson’s. Before Nikken, her tremors were increasing at a steady pace. Since being on the Nikken products, most of the tremors have subsided. There is some rigidity, but she is active and functioning. We know that the PD will never go away, but her quality of life is very good. She is on the nutrition, sleep system, necklace, bracelet, seat and Magsteps.

When I was a youngster, a Karate teacher told me, "remember this thought above all else and troubles will seem as insignificant as the ant at your foot..." "Nothing is Impossible, Courage is Success." It never entered my mind that I couldn't do something... it always came down to a matter of whether I wanted to do it or not. I was told by teachers and career counselors, I would never live long enough to do all the things I wanted to do in my life. They didn't know what they were talking about... Inexperienced youth, I thought I was invincible. I wanted to experience it all... my constant question to myself was, "What do I want to be when I grow up?" Waking up from surgery and not being able to move the left side of my body, nor able to breath without assistance, took away my choices. For the first time in my life, I struggled to get through my days, physically, emotionally and financially. My positive
nature kept telling me I would bounce back, but slowly I found myself in a downhill spiral... A "Pity Party" with a single participant, was a regular occurrence. I knew I had had a purpose, but I seemed to have lost it along with all my choices, focus and direction. I believed traditional medicine would give me my life back. When I found myself facing a fourth surgery, I decided to look at the alternatives. Starting my days by using my arms to move my body to the edge of my bed and then scooting off the bed to my wheelchair, to watch TV and/or read a book... did not make me very happy Two years and four surgeries later, months of physical, occupation, and speech therapies, after my initial surgery, with little change, I finally found something that worked and truly gave me my life back. My quality of life has improved drastically, and I now have choices. Sharing Nikken's energy products and natural advanced technologies has become my passion, focus and direction... someone cared enough to share them with me and now I want to offer you the same choices in your life. I now have physical, emotional and financial choices and freedom with Nikken. Truly, Impossible is Only the Measure of Difficulty Involved!

I placed the magnetic pearl necklace around a 77 year old lady whose hands were shaking so much she couldn't write & within 5 minutes they quit trembling visibly. We tested her by putting her hands behind her to see if they were shaking but they were still as normal. The lady commented that she was still shaking inside. Later, she removed the necklace & within a couple of seconds she began to visible shake again. Also have had good results with the magboy spinning around a person.

For Parkinson’s do the biaxial magnetic application to mid-spine area as well as neck and head 2-4X/day for 30 minutes if possible. Use as many products as the pocketbook will allow 24-7. Magnetic sleep system is a must. Add the Immunity nutritional 2-3x/day for two weeks then 1-3X/day. Use the magnetic back flex on the lower spine area during the day. Use magnetic necklace if neck or brain involvement with the earrings for women. The Weighted CardioStride shoes if the person is walking needs to be used carefully and only under health practitioner guidance with magnetic insoles inside the shoes and under any orthotics if present. Use more antioxidants and optimized pi water. Apply magnets to the spine and head as above. Go Slow.

My husband has had Parkinson's for about 13 years, and he uses many of the Nikken products. He's doing reasonably well, and I attribute the slowness of progression of the disease to the Nikken products, in addition to all the meds he is taking. I believe the Magsteps have helped his balance. He wears the necklace 24/7, sleeps on the sleep system, and finds that the PalmMag helps his back pain and flexibility. He also likes the magboy, which he finds easier to use. And he drinks as much Optimized PiMag water as I can get into him.

I have an elderly gentleman using several products. He uses the sleep system, magsteps, PalmMag and gets rollouts. Of course the magsteps really helped with the balance. All of the products helped with energy and not getting so tired. He also uses the magnets on his throat or he gets hoarse. He used our nutrition until he started having problems swallowing them. We had him use the body energizer for a weekend and had wonderful results with his energy level. He is slowly progressing but we do believe the Nikken products have helped with his energy level and balance and that is worth a lot.

Saturday night I was at a group function and happened to be sitting with a 94-year-old man who had Parkinson's and was having difficulty eating, particularly since the tableware was plastic. He couldn't keep food on the fork at all and when he switched to the spoon, he could only manage to get 1 out of 3 spoonfuls to his mouth. I removed my husband's Integrity Bracelet and put it on the man's right wrist. Within minutes he was able to function more efficiently and able to cut up his steak rarely missed a bite of food to his mouth. His eyes just sparkled and he grinned from ear to ear as he asked questions about the product. He held his arm out straight in front of him and said "Look at my hand, it isn't shaking!"

"I continue to feel better and stronger each day. I am healthier physically and emotionally. I have not experienced anxiety disorder for a week. It is one of the symptoms of Parkinson’s. I would get it every time I would go to a doctor, dentist, or anywhere. I have not experienced it in the last two trips to doctors. I have so much more strength and can focus for hours without falling apart. I just worked 4 straight hours on a math project that Robin (my wife) wanted me to make for her students. After I was done, she said, "I know where our children got their amazing concentration." It felt so good to receive a compliment. For months I lived on the edge of falling apart. And when I did fall apart it would take me hours to recover. Now I live a very even life without fear and if I do fall apart, it takes me just minutes to recover. I feel that the vitamins and minerals have done that for me. I was at the state basketball tournament and met a high school friend that I see every year or so. He came to my house last summer and saw my weakened condition and assumed that I was in very bad shape now. He had planned on calling me to see how I was
doing. When I walked up to him at the Arena, he was floored. His sister just emailed me and said that Royce was so excited and amazed when he saw me doing so well.
With Appreciation, Errol"

I have two brothers who have Parkinson's disease. The younger, age 62 was diagnosed 14 years ago. 12 years ago, he put a pair of magsteps in his shoes and his "on time" increased from 2 ½ hours a day to 7 hours a day. Then he purchased a mattress pad and pillow, Kenko seat, and promo pak (this was all we had in 1993) and his "on time" increased to 11 1/2 hours per day. On time is when the body works normally, without the shuffling, stiffness, slurring of speech etc. He is still doing much better than would be expected, he drives, putters around the house, and does wood working. My older brother was diagnosed about 8 years ago, has refused to use the technologies and is now in a wheel chair requiring almost total care.

Got her the Kenko pad, pillow and comforter, she said she slept all night for once. Next came the necklace 90% according to her doctor... who by the way took the credit "We finally got it under control". My mother said it wasn't you, it was NIKKEN!

I wanted to share this story from today. The torch has been lit here in Topeka, Kansas. I think today was when I realized that something very special has been entrusted to us. I presented at a Parkinsons Support group had set up for us to do today. It was a small group. The water and magsteps demonstrations got their attention.
One, small, frail little lady looked at me expectantly throughout our presentation. As is the case with many who have this devastating disease, her weak body and head are tilted to the side. Her eyes however, glimmered with a potential of hope as she listened to my story of encouragement. The small group kept us busy answering questions, one asked about the business, another about the insoles. This little white haired lady continued to gaze at me as I worked my way towards her. I was standing next to her, finishing a conversation, and I heard a large "thud sound", then quiet sobbing, as though this was all too common to her. I looked down and there she was - a heap on the floor, tremoring with her head against the cold, hard wood of a stand in the corner. Immediately, I looked beside me and saw the large magsteps on the table. Quickly, yet confidently and gently, I knelt down and had her lift her foot. I put one magstep under her foot. Then I gently laid her head upon my shoulder, and laid the other magstep on her
spine. Two things happened. When I knelt beside her immediately after the fall she looked at me with complete humiliation, despair...yet...she seemed to be searching my eyes to find hope...As I laid her head on my shoulder and moved the magstep onto the spine and then on to the bump on her head, the small group gathered around. I heard comments of "oh, she's fallen again...she does this at least 5 or 6 days times a day so we don't pay any attention to it"... My heart melted as I heard the group, yet I held her in my arms with hope...hope that the Good Lord would touch her and the magnets would do what I could only hope possible. The tremors stopped...there was the gentle heaving of her chest as she whimpered quietly...then she looked at me and said "they stopped when you put that on my back...they stopped". Her body resting against me was a miracle in my arms. I knew then, at that moment something had happened inside of me that shall forever change the course of my approach. On the drive home, I realized, this is "the right thing to be doing".
Blessings,

My husband had open pressure sores on his back from falling. He has Parkinson's disease. I did research on light therapy and found some research abstracts. The studies were very positive about the healing effects of infrared light therapy, but this is a major wound. I used the KenkoWave for several sessions, and the sores have scabbed and almost healed completely. I believe the PalmMag helped heal a resistant wound on his leg, too. He had a pressure bandage on the leg, so I couldn't use the KenkoWave on the bare skin. Today, after many months of different approaches (the PalmMag consistently only recently), we received the good news that this wound has healed.

Parkinson's disease (also known as Parkinson's, Parkinson disease, or PD) is a degenerative disorder of the central nervous system that impairs motor skills, cognitive processes, and other functions. The most obvious symptoms are motor-related, including tremor, rigidity, slowness of movement, and postural instability. Among non-motor symptoms are autonomic dysfunction and sensory and sleep difficulties. Cognitive and neurobehavioral problems, including dementia, are common in the advanced stages of the disease. PD usually appears around the age of 60, although there are young-onset cases.
The following testimonials are submitted by folks across the nation who have found life and hope with this chronic challenge.
Please call me at 713-725-1842 or email me at John@JohnRStJohn.com for us to see how we can give you hope and solutions to a better quality of life.

What I found works for Parkinsons is using a headband or baseball cap with 4 Nikken mini magnets inserted - 1 over each temple, and 2 on the "bumps" at the base of skull, just above the neck. Twenty-four hours a day is preferable, and the addition of the pillow at night will help even more. And of course the magnetic insoles and the energy mattress are very important as well.

Our friend Gail Linker has done some great work with Parkinsons. Gails e-mail is dtlinker@ctc.net . I have not worked directly with Parkinsons but have had some success with tremors. 80 year old lovely lady, fit and spry had been treated by her physician for 2 years for head tremors and dizziness. She also saw her Chiropractor for the same problem. Neither doctor could offer any help. Her husband bought the sleep system along with magsteps and in about a month her noticeable tremors were almost non existent and the dizziness disappeared.
Her husband didn't buy the products for that condition, he bought them because he was convinced of the benefits to their health the products would offer. He refers to her progress as a side effect, but a really good side effect. Our products will help virtually any chronic condition, how much they will help and in what time frame, we can never predict but you can be assured that over a period of time these products will help. For a person with Parkinsons, I suggest magsteps, necklace, sleep system, and a car seat. If they can get on our nutritionals, that is that much better.

There is a great web site that talks about how Sleep Problems May Complicate Many Illnesses . It says sleep is such a crucial aspect of health that it can have an adverse impact on Parkinson disease. This is all according to a report in a recent issue of the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA). The report is based on studies presented at annual joint meeting of the American Academy of Sleep Medicine and Sleep Research Society. You can
read the entire document at http://www.mercola.com/2000/dec/17/sleep_problems.htm
The other concern is with toxic metals in our drinking water. Just recently, the May 1997 issue of Consumer Reports lists the recall of a Sears water filter made by WaterWorks (Chemical Contaminant/Taste and Odor Filter Cartridge Premium Grade Granular Activated Carbon) that releases enough nickel into the water to turn it green and to cause stomach cramps, nausea, and diarrhea in those individuals consuming the "nickel-contaminated" water. Nickel may be particularly problematic in our environment since it is already pervasive (present in coins, jewelry, eyeglass frames, and many types of stainless steel). Nickel is also a known contact carcinogen and allergen (NIOSH handbook). Ironically, at the same time that nickel presumably uncouples our protective mechanism against cancer, it over stimulates at least one immune response (cytolytic antibody production) linked to cancer-negating activities. Thus, a misdirecting or uncoupling of our normal immune surveillance for cancer, while compensating with an over-escalation of an immune responses that can produce hypersensitivity and perhaps even auto-immunity, essentially describes the immunopathology of nickel poisoning. Nickel is far from being our only toxic metal problem. Recently, exposures to other toxic metals and different combinations (mercury, manganese, copper, lead and copper, lead and iron, and iron and copper) have been associated with a higher incidence of Parkinson's disease.

I have had great success for Parkinson's with insoles, the magnetic Kenkoseat, the wrist wrap and bracelet. Try anything and see how it works for a particular person.

Last week I did a strength test using PiMag living water on my brother in law who suffers from tremors in his hands. He drank about a total of 4 ounces during and after the test. In just a few minutes he asked for more PiMag Living water and held out his glass for me to fill. We were all excited as he did so, because the tremors were almost negligent!!! He said as I poured the water, "I should be spilling every drop you pour in here. Look at this, I am holding my hand almost completely still!"

I recently was called to the home of an 84 year old lady with stage 2 Parkinson's disease. She is determined to stay in her own home as long as possible. Her son and Daughter-in-law have hired aids to care for her. They have her on a tons of nutritionals, have hired a personal trainer and massage therapist. They have gotten her from a wheel chair to a walker, which is quite remarkable. I was called because of her high stress level, poor sleep, and balance. Because she is incontinent I couldn't loan her a sleep system. This poor lady was so weak from lack of sleep that she couldn't even hold her head up. I was forced to cut my visit to 10 minutes. (she reminded me of myself 4 years ago) They purchased a travel pad and sleep mask saying that if she showed any improvement they would buy the
whole system. Spoke with her by phone tonight-she sounded like a different person! She slept right through the night the second and third nights on the pad! Aren't these products something!!!!

About 2 years ago Barbara began to lose her mobility. She progressed from cane to walker to not being able to remain on her feet for more than 10 - 15 minutes at a time. She underwent a variety of tests and evaluations from the doctors and neurologists with no results. They prescribed a variety of medications and eventually she developed a severe discomfort in her right hip. This they could treat with cortisone shots and therapy for temporary relief. The end result was the doctors decided they could do nothing more and she would soon be in a wheel chair. At this point a friend who knew of our situation asked if we would consider alternative wellness products. Our response was if it was chemical, pharmaceutical, herbs, or anything invasive the answer was no. At this time she was taking so many drugs she had to keep a log to keep from over dosing. However, he said no, you simply wear and sleep on these products. He didn't know if they would help but he and others had had amazing results. Since there was no way they
could harm her, we felt at least there might be another option. Since she could no longer lie down in bed she was sleeping in a recliner in our family room. We brought a Kenko Seat for the recliner, magsteps for her shoes, and mini relax pads for her hip. The first night she sat down on the Kenko Seat she fell asleep and slept for four hours straight. It had been several months since she sleep longer than 30 or 40 minutes at one time. Three days later I was setting in my chair in the family room when I realized someone was beside me. I looked up surprised because I could always tell where she was in the house from the noise of the cane or walker. I was amazed, because she was walking without a walker or cane and actually picking up her feet!!! She told me she had walked about half way around the block that morning! She quit taking the medications, stopped the therapy and cortisone shots from that time on. Within a week she had regained much of the mobility she had 3 years before and as we speak she is doing great!
Well - we tried the products with others and they got similar results for a variety of issues. As Barbara will readily tell you, not everyone gets the quick results she was blessed with, but everyone benefits.

When the City of Hope Medical Center dropped their Parkinson's support program, Barbara and her friend, Lisa Hamilton, began work with the city of Claremont to establish a new support group. The group has grown by leaps and bounds! A few of the programs Barbara and Lisa implemented are: a people to people support network, a guest speakers program, regular monthly meetings and a newsletter to help keep their members informed of the latest developments. Barbara's hard work and determination have been recognized by others: On May 9, 2001, at the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion, Barbara Foster was honored by the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors and the Los Angeles County Commission on Aging for her stellar work in the
Parkinson's community. What is truly amazing, however, is that a few short months before starting this project, Barbara's doctors had informed her that she would soon be confined to a wheelchair due to a progressive loss of mobility. Barbara credits Nikken's products and philosophy of balanced living with helping her take control of her health. Eventually Barbara regained her mobility. With the cane and walker gone, Barbara was able to return to her career, public activities and the formation of the Parkinson's Support Group. This is truly an example of people helping people in the best Nikken tradition!)

There is a neurologist Dr. Larry Pierce who is working in Mocksville, NC that spoke at an energy medicine seminar last year about a new magnetic energizing study they are doing called MME (Magnetic Molecular Energizing). I went to see him when I had a disc problem in my neck to see about the alternatives to surgery. They are currently doing the required studies to get FDA approval for Cerebral Palsy, Parkinson's disease and IV disc disease. I met a man who had severe Parkinson's disease a few years ago and came to Dr Pierce as a last resort. He had (according to his assessment) 90% improvement within the first few weeks and had remained stable with only occasional retreatments. It is not covered by insurance, but like the MRI is very safe. It involves sleeping under a large hi
powered magnetic field (similar to an MRI) for 8-12 hours at a time, for several days at a time. All of the people working with this study are very excited about the results they are seeing. The phone number in Mocksville is 336-492-2800. The doctors involved are:

I have an elderly gentleman using several products. He uses the sleep system, magsteps, PalmMag and gets rollouts. Of course the magsteps really helped with the balance. All of the products helped with energy and not getting so tired. He also uses the magnets on his throat or he gets hoarse. He used our nutrition until he started having problems swallowing them. We had him use the body energizer for a weekend and had wonderful results with his energy level. He is slowly progressing but we do believe the Nikken products have helped with his energy level and balance and that is worth a lot.

My Dad had Parkinson's disease and he really liked his Magstrides. They helped him with balance and he didn't "shuffle" his feet as much and he never fell. The sleep system and chair seat helped keep him comfortable and warm.

Saturday night I was at a group function and happened to be sitting with a 94-year-old man who had Parkinson's and was having difficulty eating, particularly since the tableware was plastic. He couldn't keep food on the fork at all and when he switched to the spoon, he could only manage to get 1 out of 3 spoonfuls to his mouth. I removed my husband's Integrity Bracelet and put it on the man's right wrist. Within minutes he was able to function more efficiently and able to cut up his steak rarely missed a bite of food to his mouth. His eyes just sparkled and he grinned from ear to ear as he asked questions about the product. He held his arm out straight in front of him and said "Look at my hand, it isn't shaking!"

I wanted to share Errol’s progress with Nikken. He purchased the sleep system, water system and nutritional supplementation in December ‘04. He takes Immunity, Lactoferrin, Liver and Kenzen for Men, plus some extra fish oil.

"I continue to feel better and stronger each day. I am healthier physically and emotionally. I have not experienced anxiety disorder for a week. It is one of the symptoms of Parkinson’s. I would get it every time I would go to a doctor, dentist, or anywhere. I have not experienced it in the last two trips to doctors. I have so much more strength and can focus for hours without falling apart. I just worked 4 straight hours on a math project that Robin (my wife) wanted me to make for her students. After I was done, she said, "I know where our children got their amazing concentration." It felt so good to receive a compliment. For months I lived on the edge of falling apart. And when I did fall apart it would take me hours to recover. Now I live a very even life without fear and if I do fall apart, it takes me just minutes to recover. I feel that the vitamins and minerals have done that for me. I was at the state basketball tournament and met a high school friend that I see every year or so. He came to my house last summer and saw my weakened condition and assumed that I was in very bad shape now. He had planned on calling me to see how I was
doing. When I walked up to him at the Arena, he was floored. His sister just emailed me and said that Royce was so excited and amazed when he saw me doing so well.
With Appreciation, Errol"

I have two brothers who have Parkinson's disease. The younger, age 62 was diagnosed 14 years ago. 12 years ago, he put a pair of magsteps in his shoes and his "on time" increased from 2 ½ hours a day to 7 hours a day. Then he purchased a mattress pad and pillow, Kenko seat, and promo pak (this was all we had in 1993) and his "on time" increased to 11 1/2 hours per day. On time is when the body works normally, without the shuffling, stiffness, slurring of speech etc. He is still doing much better than would be expected, he drives, putters around the house, and does wood working. My older brother was diagnosed about 8 years ago, has refused to use the technologies and is now in a wheel chair requiring almost total care.

My mother has Parkinson's disease. Started off with Kenkoseat plus, she doesn't drive but she put it on her easy chair and loved it so much, she took it to bed. Got her the Kenko pad, pillow and comforter, she said she slept all night for once. Next came the necklace 90% according to her doctor... who by the way took the credit "We finally got it under control". My mother said it wasn't you, it was NIKKEN!

We recently put the Nikken bracelet on a fellow with Parkinson's Disease and his one hand stopped shaking as much. He was very impressed. He also said he felt lots of relief using the KenkoSeat and Magstrides. He's also using the necklace. We saw the lessshaking/ non-shaking of his hand. His wife is very negative to these kinds of things, but when she saw his progress, she's willing to listen now.

I wanted to share this story from today. The torch has been lit here in Topeka, Kansas. I think today was when I realized that something very special has been entrusted to us. I presented at a Parkinsons Support group had set up for us to do today. It was a small group. The water and magsteps demonstrations got their attention.
One, small, frail little lady looked at me expectantly throughout our presentation. As is the case with many who have this devastating disease, her weak body and head are tilted to the side. Her eyes however, glimmered with a potential of hope as she listened to my story of encouragement. The small group kept us busy answering questions, one asked about the business, another about the insoles. This little white haired lady continued to gaze at me as I worked my way towards her. I was standing next to her, finishing a conversation, and I heard a large "thud sound", then quiet sobbing, as though this was all too common to her. I looked down and there she was - a heap on the floor, tremoring with her head against the cold, hard wood of a stand in the corner. Immediately, I looked beside me and saw the large magsteps on the table. Quickly, yet confidently and gently, I knelt down and had her lift her foot. I put one magstep under her foot. Then I gently laid her head upon my shoulder, and laid the other magstep on her
spine. Two things happened. When I knelt beside her immediately after the fall she looked at me with complete humiliation, despair...yet...she seemed to be searching my eyes to find hope...As I laid her head on my shoulder and moved the magstep onto the spine and then on to the bump on her head, the small group gathered around. I heard comments of "oh, she's fallen again...she does this at least 5 or 6 days times a day so we don't pay any attention to it"... My heart melted as I heard the group, yet I held her in my arms with hope...hope that the Good Lord would touch her and the magnets would do what I could only hope possible. The tremors stopped...there was the gentle heaving of her chest as she whimpered quietly...then she looked at me and said "they stopped when you put that on my back...they stopped". Her body resting against me was a miracle in my arms. I knew then, at that moment something had happened inside of me that shall forever change the course of my approach. On the drive home, I realized, this is "the right thing to be doing".
Blessings,

My husband had open pressure sores on his back from falling. He has Parkinson's disease. I did research on light therapy and found some research abstracts. The studies were very positive about the healing effects of infrared light therapy, but this is a major wound. I used the KenkoWave for several sessions, and the sores have scabbed and almost healed completely. I believe the PalmMag helped heal a resistant wound on his leg, too. He had a pressure bandage on the leg, so I couldn't use the KenkoWave on the bare skin. Today, after many months of different approaches (the PalmMag consistently only recently), we received the good news that this wound has healed.

From: djacobs@pshift.com
I have been dealing with Lupus for several years, and have found a tremendous amount of relief of symptoms while sleeping on the Intelli-Rest Mattress, and also the winter comforter. I also drink a lot of PI water which I know makes a difference too. I am able to work full time with a minimal amount of pain or discomfort, and have much better overall health. My upline wasn't able to use the Intelli-Rest mattress, so I was able to buy it from her. Even my cats are crazy about it, and sleep on my bed all day. I am able to do a three way with anyone that has a prospect who is dealing with this disease, and share my testimony of our products.

The following is a testimonial from one of my upline that has lupus:
Here is the story of my lupus and my experience with the Nikken products and herbs. I was diagnosed with lupus many years ago. For a long time the disease caused aching only occasionally with some headaches and fatigue. However, as the years went on, I was slowly getting worse. In the year before I found Nikken (1994) my feet hurt a lot. In the evening, I could hardly get up out of chair and walk to the kitchen because the bottoms of my feet were so sore and tender. I took early retirement from my teaching job, thinking that getting away from the stress would improve my health. It didn't. Then a neighbor brought me a mattress pad to sleep on, and I thought my energy level was better during the day. I decided to become a distributor so I could purchase a mattress pad at wholesale, but the first thing I bought was a pair of Magsteps. Within a week, all the pain and soreness was gone from my feet and it never returned. Then I met a woman who is an iridologist. She can read the various areas of the body that need nutritional support by looking into the eyes. She put me on an herbal program for chronically reversed polarity. She said she would make a new woman out of me in three months. Within a couple of weeks, I had made a major turnaround in my health. I saw her after I'd been on the program for a month and when she looked at my eyes again, she was shocked. She said, "We never see this much healing this quickly. It always takes a minimum of three months." Then she thought for a moment and realized why I'd gotten the results so quickly. She said, "Oh, it's the
magnets." Now I know that the synergy of the magnets and the proper nutrition can do iraculous things. I no longer feel that I have lupus. I haven't actually had a doctor check it because I don't really care what he would say. I know I feel very well, and I don't have any of the symptoms any more.

Lupus is an inflamatory disease of the connective tissues. It can affect many organ systems including the joints and kidneys. Gluten enteropathy has many of the classic symptoms of lupus and can easily be mistakenly diagnosed as lupus erythematosus. When lupus symptoms are present food allergies and possible gluten enteropathy should be seriously investigated. Our Bio-Directed Joint supplement is very important to take. It’s a natural anti-inflamatory that also adds fluid to the joints. Cetyl Myristoleate (CM) which is in the Joint supplement loosens tight joints & tissues, even lubricates arteries. It’s an anti-inflammatory - even in people where NSAIDS & corticosteroids have not been effective. It’s also a immune system regulator – it calms down hyper-immune responses & regulates immune systems that are not working at optimal levels. It works with arthritis (all types), bursitis, tendonitis, tension headaches. COPD, emphysema, systemic lupus erythermastosus, psoriasis, prostatitis, fibromyalgia, etc.
Also using Magnetic energy and Far-infrared energy from a energy sleep system would provide full body treatment as well. If you go to http://www.garynull.com/Documents/magnets.htm#PEER-REVIEWED SCIENTIFIC STUDIES – you will see research studies on Lupus with using magnets.
Dr. Tom Kirchhofer
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
FROM: peggy_kenko@hotmail.com
Dr. Chuck Cochran who performed the research and wrote the book Arthritis & Cetyl Myristoleate stressed that all forms of arthritis, including osteo and rheumatoid, as well as Lupus and others, are considered a type of auto-immune disease. Your body is attacking
your own cells as though they were foreign bodies. As a result there is a large amount of oxidation waste floating around contributing to the inflammation. The Bio-directed Joint, Antioxidant and Liver are a must for these people. Check out this web site to learn more
about Cetyl Myristoleate and why its changing so many lives so quickly - http://www.kurtin.com/cm/. The Bio-directed Joint compound MUST be taken on AN EMPTY STOMACH!! The joint compound is non-toxic and you can take 10-12 per day at the beginning to jump start the accumulation of this substance in your body. Then, as you feel relief you can decrease down to the 3 per day.
Dr. Cochran explained that people who are taking the combination of Glucosamine and Chondroitin may be surprised to find that out that less that 10% of the Chondroitin is absorbed by the body. When the original medical studies were performed the Chondroitin was injected, but is not very bio-available when taken orally. That's one of the reasons why the Joint Compound contains the combination of Glucosamine, Cetyl Myristoleate and Methyl Sulfonylmethane and not Chondroitin.

I have (lupus and fibromyalgia) and was desperate to find something to relieve my discomfort, besides being so extremely tired and weak. I'm not sure which symptoms to relate to which problem, but I do know that together they are very debilitating. I started on the sleep system in March of 2000, and also the neck wrap, insoles and nutrition (liver support, joint and vitamins). I received almost immediate relief and by the third day I no longer required the strong medication for pain. Today I don't even take aspirin or Tylenol. I'd had kidney failure, liver problems and developed a heart condition before I was introduced to these products. Now I consider myself quite healthy. The products give me such complete relief, I can enjoy the good things in life once more.

I have experience with degenerative disc disease in my neck and spine, arthritis, and fibromyelitis. These problems are secondary disorders subsequent to my diagnosis of systemic lupus. I have used the sleep system (deluxe mattress, FIR comforter, kenko pillow, and sleep mask) and have found tremendous benefits in the level of discomfort in my back and neck. I also wear one of the magnetic necklaces, wear the magsteps, use the magnetic seat pad at work and at home, take the nutritionals, and drink plenty of pi-water.

Fifteen years ago my life began to spiral out of control, gradually at first then speeding up to hyper warp speed. In 1998 I had exhausted all the bag of tricks conventional medicine had, all they had to offer me were powerful drugs that kept me in a fog for almost two years before Nikken came along. Two unsuspecting WC came to my front door thinking they were coming to see a person who had a neck fusion and fibromyalgia, much to their surprise and fear they found themselves facing a much greater challenge even than that. I also have Lupus. They sat there in shock after hearing everything that was challenging my life at that time. They later told me they were thinking:
1) We could just leave and admit being over whelmed or
2) We can throw everything we have on her and see what happens.
Fortunately for me, they chose the second option and put everything they had and could get on me and my bed. Being a trained Physicist and having spent a number of years working with magnets and infrared it is a total understatement to say that I was skeptical. But my wonderful husband who desired nothing more than to have his wife back and would have been willing to pay the ultimate price for me to regain any quality of life, said what do you have to lose? Nothing but a lot of drugs and pain! So I tried the products. Needless to say my response to the products was nothing short of miraculous! I had not driven in over six years, could not travel, had no interest in life at all, thought that I would never see my grandchildren or even be there for our three son's weddings. Within a week my life was making a dramatic turn around. I was taking less and less medication and feeling like a person with a reason to live again. After two weeks on the products, I was at our church helping with a Halloween Party and hayride. Without a second thought when the kids loaded up on the back of the trailer I jumped on with them (yes, jumped!). A little ways down the road I thought Carol this might not be the smartest thing you've ever done. But you know what? I came home that night not knowing what kind of shape I would be in the morning but to my surprise and excitement I suffered no ill effects from the bumpy-ride on the back of that trailer. But being the trained scientist that I am, I felt I had to do an experiment to know that it was definitely the products and not just a fluke because that is the nature of my challenges. They wax and wane, so you don't know when you might just be having a good spell. Ron took everything off the bed and all the FIR and magnetics off my body and I went to bed only to wake up about 2 hours later feeling like an 18-wheeler had run over me. He quickly grabbed everything up - put the sleep system on our bed and everything else on me. I slept for about 2 more hours and awoke feeling refreshed and alive. Am I cured of the challenges I live with? No, but instead of them having me - I am in control of them. I have not taken anything for pain since starting on the products two years ago. I recently had to visit a hemotologists and he looked at the list of diseases I live with everyday and then the medications that I take. He asked me over and over if I took anything for pain and I kept telling him, "No Finally after about the fifth time I looked at him and said, "Look, I left pain meds behind 2 years ago and now if I hurt I reach for a magnet or CM cream or magboys or if its drastic the TENS unit. But never a pain pill." He said that he wished more of his patients did that instead of opting for major narcotics. Did I mention that he is also an oncologists, so he sees some REALLY sick people! In the two years that I have been using the Nikken products I have not been in the hospital once which was a regular occurrence before. I have not even been sick and in need of an antibiotic in the two years. That had been totally unheard of my entire life even before the onset of some major diseases. And by the way I know I will be around to see my grandchildren. Not just see them but able to enjoy them and remember the experience. I am now a woman with a mission. A mission to share Nikken with anyone that will stop long enough to listen. If I spent the rest of my life sharing Nikken with everyone I can it would not give back to Nikken anything to compare with what Nikken has given me- My Life back!

I just wanted to tell you about a woman who has benefited greatly from the use of our products. When I first met her about 8 weeks ago she was in a lot of pain, particularly in her feet. She is 23 yrs old, registered disabled with Lupus and has suffered from it for 2 years. She asked me if I would help her. I loaned her a sleep system and asked her to buy a pair of insoles. Within a couple of days only, she reported an improvement in her condition. She was fairly negative and skeptical at the time I loaned her the products butafter only a couple of days, there were signs that she was responding to the products she had. People started to notice that she was walking better and this spurred her on. The cumulative effects of having our products around her, plus her other self-help strategies of going to do Pilates twice a week, regular Reflexology treatment and following the doctor's advice regarding diet/nutrition have resulted in a 70% improvement in her condition. She is a lovely, warm person and her personality has blossomed during the 8 weeks I have known her. She feels so much better and therefore, more positive about life. She said to me the other day 'you have made such a difference to my life that I can passionately tell others about these products and what they have done for me'. Isn't it wonderful when you can make a positive difference to another fellow human being's life? There's great work to be done.

One of my wellness consultants, Debi Brown forwarded this testimonial to me. Susan
My name is Tina Wootten. In Nov. 2000, I had a major health crisis. I became crippled, barely walking with a cane, debilitating pain, ulcerations in my mouth and esophagus. I was out on chemotherapy and high dose steroids. In Feb. 2001 I experienced a Lupus vasculitis to the brain. I had expressive aphasia. I truly did not think I would survive the year. My childhood friend Debi Brown got me introduced to Nikken magnetic products and they helped her with her back and neck. I am on disability so my finances are limited especially during a disease crisis due to the cost of medication and co-pays. She initially bought me the magnetic insoles, these energized me so that I could walk a little more distance and with less leg discomfort. She bought me the magnetic pearl earrings tohelp my brain involvement and has given me PiMag concentrate water to help my mouth ulcerations. I bought the magboy and magcreator and use them every day of my life now to roll out my discomfort. I can get immediate relief. My plan now is to take better care of myself and try to wean myself off the medication. There is no cure for my disease but these products have helped me along and I have my dear friend to thank for it.

Hi, when I was in another MLM with barley as their star product where there were lots of testimonials on lupus, so JGZ taken in enough volume should enable the lupus diseased body to heal itself. Lupus, as with most diseases is a mineral deficiency of one or more minerals. How much? At least two tbsps a day, I like it best in grape juice. And to aid the process I'd eat red grapes every day in moderation.

My daughter has Lupus and last Christmas I bought several items for her -- a sleep system (just the mattress pad rather than a full mattress), water bottle, CM Cream, MagBoys, various sizes of the Kenko magnetic promo pads, long johns, neck scarf and gloves, and the eye mask. She looked at everything with a doubtful eye and said she would try them but for me to understand that they probably would not work. Before I left her that evening I told her to put the CM Cream on her hands, ankles and feet. She called me the next morning so excited she could barely talk. It seems that every day when she would awaken her hands would be terribly swollen and so painful that she would not even be able to hold a toothbrush. Likewise, her feet and ankles would be terribly swollen and caused a throbbing pain. This particular morning, having rubbed the CM Cream as I had suggested, she awoke with absolutely no swelling and no pain! She loves all the products I took to her but the cream was an instant success.

From Diamond Barry Weinhouse:
Tuesday night in Melville New York I witnessed a miraculous product response and the heart of the man responsible. Anthony Bovay is the engineer responsible for the magnetic products we distribute. He was kind enough to accept an invitation to share his experiences with our technology and with Nikken, and incidentally bring along for demonstration the new body energizer. At the beginning of the preview I asked for a show of hands of new people and a lady in the front row raised her hand, I commented on her bravery. I then asked if any one was hurting, and again she raised her hand, her left hand that is. She proceeded to list her complaintsincluding her back hand and shoulder. "I can't raise my right arm." I reflected on Linda and my beginnings with Nikken almost ten years ago. I then introduced Anthony and he took over. Meanwhile the lady in the front row after about fifteen minutes on the body energizer took her seat. Out of the corner of my eye I saw that "deer in the headlights" look on her face and while Anthony continued, she raised both arms over her head and proceeded to cry. Incidentally she told me afterwards she suffers from Lupus. This was only one of a number of instantaneous responses that evening.

My wife, Suzanne, has had Lupus for over 20 years. In that time she has she has been taking about thirteen drugs a day and various pain medications. In the middle of those 20 years she developed cancer. Having Lupus and Cancer at the same time caused some serious complications. Thank God, a wonderful surgeon and my wife’s positive attitude - she is a cancer survivor. The Lupus though seemed to be getting worse. She experienced very painful joints and a lack of energy. In the mornings she would get up in pain and be very shaky on her feet, and having to hold the wall for balance. One day she went out shopping and had a seizure - with one every year for the next five years. They don’t know what caused them, but it was probably a Lupus flare up. She had to leave her job and go on disability. A specialist tested her for sleep patterns and found out she wakes every 10 minutes. The Doctor said that this was definitely a trigger for seizures. Things all changed when a lady named Joyce Barron, a friend from Dale Carnegie, called me and asked if I ever kept my optionsopen. I won’t go into all the particulars, but at the first meeting my wife sat on the Body Energizer. The swelling in her feet went away along with the pain and also the pain in her neck. The next meeting Joyce gave her a roll out and put her to sleep. We knew we had to get a Nikken Wellness Home. It is now more than a year and a half later. No more seizures, sleeps through the night, off half of her medications, and we have not taken a pain reliever since we joined the business and bought a Nikken Wellness Home. My wife has gained 10 years back on her life. People who knew her 10 years ago cannot believe the difference. An important side note. My wife has been on OsteoDenx for three months. She just had her blood work done. The results just blew us away. The Doctor said that there was an increase in her red blood cell count and that her bone marrow was very good. Something we
hadn’t heard before.

These pictures are quite graphic. The young girl is from Singapore , and there they call Lupus, "SLE". What a dramatic effect our products can have on a life! The business side of Nikken may start slowly, but if you persevere, people far and wide will have their lives changed. Here is how this girl got helped:
1. My daughter was helped from chronic fatigue and I became committed to share the products AND the business. I am nowa Diamond.
2. A close friend was getting her Doctorate, didn't want to join, but became a consultant after I loaned her a sleep system andher back improved dramatically. (After borrowing it for a 2nd time, as her husband thought he "couldn't sleep", whenactually he just woke up earlier as he was more refreshed") She is now a Platinum. 3. She sponsored a mutual friend who got immediate relief from the magboy with a frozen shoulder. She is now a Gold.
4. She sponsored an acquaintance who got immediate relief from laryngitis using a mini. (After having been loaned the sleep system for 6 months and never using it!!!) She is now a Platinum.
5. She sponsored her sister in Singapore , who had retired early from teaching because of a horrible bad back. She got great
relief and is now an active Silver.
6. She sponsored her brother who was looking for a part time business.
7. He sponsored a friend at work who also was looking for a business.
8. He loaned the products to a dying man who got great relief in his final time on earth.
9. His daughter joined Nikken and is the one who helped this young girl. She is a Muslim housewife with 6 kids (4 or 5 stilllive at home.) I was welcomed there 2 years ago and this petite woman is so inspiring. She has since gone Platinum. No one would have been helped if the vision and business side of Nikken hadn't also been shared along with the amazing products. So
if you keep sharing, you just never know who you might help. And you might build a global business too!

D.O.B: 7th July 1994
Diagnosed with SLE in early 2007
I was really sick. I visited many doctors but they cannot detect my sickness.
Till one day, I was told that I suffer from SLE from SGH.
My body felt as if I was dead. I had no energy and my body was dehydrated. I only lie restlessly on the bed with tubes all around me. I was giving up as I was told by the doctors that this disease has no cure. And it is rare among teenagers. I was always groaning in pain without energy and felt hopeless. I got some fits and low blood pressure. My kidneys were not functioning very well. And there were water around my heart. I started to forget things, like the dates, days and months. Life was hard, and I nearly gave up till Sariyah came.
Reflections after using NIKKEN my health improved tremendously. After drinking the optimized water, I can sleep easier in hospitals at night. I gain a lot of energy and I urinated a lot.
I can talk and make jokes more. I can understand more things that were taught to me.
After finishing the samples of water from Sariyah, I began to ask for more. Besides the wonderful fresh taste it has, it gave me a lot of strength to survive the day easily. Without hesitation, I persuaded my parents to buy me a set of NIKKEN Water System for the benefit of my health. And effectively, it helped me quite a lot. Although I still feel very restless at times, it helps me reduce the pain. After months using NIKKEN, my mother got a token from Sariyah. It is called greenzymes. At that time, I did not take it as I have lots of other medicines to take. Till one day, which is around early February 2008, I remembered about it and started taking it. It does taste yucky but it really helps me. It gave me the strength I have been longing for since I became sick. I felt like as if I was back like last time, so energetic. I was not as tired in school and I can participate in more activities without much hesitation. I feel so blessed and the changes encouraged me to continue having enzyme and drinking the optimized water. After months using NIKKEN, my mother got a token from Sariyah. It is called greenzymes.

I have been dealing with Lupus for several years, and have found a tremendous amount of relief of symptoms while sleeping on the Intelli-Rest Mattress, and also the winter comforter. I also drink a lot of PI water which I know makes a difference too. I am able to work full time with a minimal amount of pain or discomfort, and have much better overall health. My upline wasn't able to use the Intelli-Rest mattress, so I was able to buy it from her. Even my cats are crazy about it, and sleep on my bed all day. I am able to do a three way with anyone that has a prospect who is dealing with this disease, and share my testimony of our products.

The following is a testimonial from one of my upline that has lupus:
Here is the story of my lupus and my experience with the Nikken products and herbs. I was diagnosed with lupus many years ago. For a long time the disease caused aching only occasionally with some headaches and fatigue. However, as the years went on, I was slowly getting worse. In the year before I found Nikken (1994) my feet hurt a lot. In the evening, I could hardly get up out of chair and walk to the kitchen because the bottoms of my feet were so sore and tender. I took early retirement from my teaching job, thinking that getting away from the stress would improve my health. It didn't. Then a neighbor brought me a mattress pad to sleep on, and I thought my energy level was better during the day. I decided to become a distributor so I could purchase a mattress pad at wholesale, but the first thing I bought was a pair of Magsteps. Within a week, all the pain and soreness was gone from my feet and it never returned. Then I met a woman who is an iridologist. She can read the various areas of the body that need nutritional support by looking into the eyes. She put me on an herbal program for chronically reversed polarity. She said she would make a new woman out of me in three months. Within a couple of weeks, I had made a major turnaround in my health. I saw her after I'd been on the program for a month and when she looked at my eyes again, she was shocked. She said, "We never see this much healing this quickly. It always takes a minimum of three months." Then she thought for a moment and realized why I'd gotten the results so quickly. She said, "Oh, it's the
magnets." Now I know that the synergy of the magnets and the proper nutrition can do iraculous things. I no longer feel that I have lupus. I haven't actually had a doctor check it because I don't really care what he would say. I know I feel very well, and I don't have any of the symptoms any more.

Lupus is an inflamatory disease of the connective tissues. It can affect many organ systems including the joints and kidneys. Gluten enteropathy has many of the classic symptoms of lupus and can easily be mistakenly diagnosed as lupus erythematosus. When lupus symptoms are present food allergies and possible gluten enteropathy should be seriously investigated. Our Bio-Directed Joint supplement is very important to take. It’s a natural anti-inflamatory that also adds fluid to the joints. Cetyl Myristoleate (CM) which is in the Joint supplement loosens tight joints & tissues, even lubricates arteries. It’s an anti-inflammatory - even in people where NSAIDS & corticosteroids have not been effective. It’s also a immune system regulator – it calms down hyper-immune responses & regulates immune systems that are not working at optimal levels. It works with arthritis (all types), bursitis, tendonitis, tension headaches. COPD, emphysema, systemic lupus erythermastosus, psoriasis, prostatitis, fibromyalgia, etc.
Also using Magnetic energy and Far-infrared energy from a energy sleep system would provide full body treatment as well. If you go to http://www.garynull.com/Documents/magnets.htm#PEER-REVIEWED SCIENTIFIC STUDIES – you will see research studies on Lupus with using magnets.
Dr. Tom Kirchhofer

FROM: peggy_kenko@hotmail.com
Dr. Chuck Cochran who performed the research and wrote the book Arthritis & Cetyl Myristoleate stressed that all forms of arthritis, including osteo and rheumatoid, as well as Lupus and others, are considered a type of auto-immune disease. Your body is attacking
your own cells as though they were foreign bodies. As a result there is a large amount of oxidation waste floating around contributing to the inflammation. The Bio-directed Joint, Antioxidant and Liver are a must for these people. Check out this web site to learn more
about Cetyl Myristoleate and why its changing so many lives so quickly - http://www.kurtin.com/cm/. The Bio-directed Joint compound MUST be taken on AN EMPTY STOMACH!! The joint compound is non-toxic and you can take 10-12 per day at the beginning to jump start the accumulation of this substance in your body. Then, as you feel relief you can decrease down to the 3 per day.
Dr. Cochran explained that people who are taking the combination of Glucosamine and Chondroitin may be surprised to find that out that less that 10% of the Chondroitin is absorbed by the body. When the original medical studies were performed the Chondroitin was injected, but is not very bio-available when taken orally. That's one of the reasons why the Joint Compound contains the combination of Glucosamine, Cetyl Myristoleate and Methyl Sulfonylmethane and not Chondroitin.

I have (lupus and fibromyalgia) and was desperate to find something to relieve my discomfort, besides being so extremely tired and weak. I'm not sure which symptoms to relate to which problem, but I do know that together they are very debilitating. I started on the sleep system in March of 2000, and also the neck wrap, insoles and nutrition (liver support, joint and vitamins). I received almost immediate relief and by the third day I no longer required the strong medication for pain. Today I don't even take aspirin or Tylenol. I'd had kidney failure, liver problems and developed a heart condition before I was introduced to these products. Now I consider myself quite healthy. The products give me such complete relief, I can enjoy the good things in life once more.

I have experience with degenerative disc disease in my neck and spine, arthritis, and fibromyelitis. These problems are secondary disorders subsequent to my diagnosis of systemic lupus. I have used the sleep system (deluxe mattress, FIR comforter, kenko pillow, and sleep mask) and have found tremendous benefits in the level of discomfort in my back and neck. I also wear one of the magnetic necklaces, wear the magsteps, use the magnetic seat pad at work and at home, take the nutritionals, and drink plenty of pi-water.

Fifteen years ago my life began to spiral out of control, gradually at first then speeding up to hyper warp speed. In 1998 I had exhausted all the bag of tricks conventional medicine had, all they had to offer me were powerful drugs that kept me in a fog for almost two years before Nikken came along. Two unsuspecting WC came to my front door thinking they were coming to see a person who had a neck fusion and fibromyalgia, much to their surprise and fear they found themselves facing a much greater challenge even than that. I also have Lupus. They sat there in shock after hearing everything that was challenging my life at that time. They later told me they were thinking:
1) We could just leave and admit being over whelmed or
2) We can throw everything we have on her and see what happens.
Fortunately for me, they chose the second option and put everything they had and could get on me and my bed. Being a trained Physicist and having spent a number of years working with magnets and infrared it is a total understatement to say that I was skeptical. But my wonderful husband who desired nothing more than to have his wife back and would have been willing to pay the ultimate price for me to regain any quality of life, said what do you have to lose? Nothing but a lot of drugs and pain! So I tried the products. Needless to say my response to the products was nothing short of miraculous! I had not driven in over six years, could not travel, had no interest in life at all, thought that I would never see my grandchildren or even be there for our three son's weddings. Within a week my life was making a dramatic turn around. I was taking less and less medication and feeling like a person with a reason to live again. After two weeks on the products, I was at our church helping with a Halloween Party and hayride. Without a second thought when the kids loaded up on the back of the trailer I jumped on with them (yes, jumped!). A little ways down the road I thought Carol this might not be the smartest thing you've ever done. But you know what? I came home that night not knowing what kind of shape I would be in the morning but to my surprise and excitement I suffered no ill effects from the bumpy-ride on the back of that trailer. But being the trained scientist that I am, I felt I had to do an experiment to know that it was definitely the products and not just a fluke because that is the nature of my challenges. They wax and wane, so you don't know when you might just be having a good spell. Ron took everything off the bed and all the FIR and magnetics off my body and I went to bed only to wake up about 2 hours later feeling like an 18-wheeler had run over me. He quickly grabbed everything up - put the sleep system on our bed and everything else on me. I slept for about 2 more hours and awoke feeling refreshed and alive. Am I cured of the challenges I live with? No, but instead of them having me - I am in control of them. I have not taken anything for pain since starting on the products two years ago. I recently had to visit a hemotologists and he looked at the list of diseases I live with everyday and then the medications that I take. He asked me over and over if I took anything for pain and I kept telling him, "No Finally after about the fifth time I looked at him and said, "Look, I left pain meds behind 2 years ago and now if I hurt I reach for a magnet or CM cream or magboys or if its drastic the TENS unit. But never a pain pill." He said that he wished more of his patients did that instead of opting for major narcotics. Did I mention that he is also an oncologists, so he sees some REALLY sick people! In the two years that I have been using the Nikken products I have not been in the hospital once which was a regular occurrence before. I have not even been sick and in need of an antibiotic in the two years. That had been totally unheard of my entire life even before the onset of some major diseases. And by the way I know I will be around to see my grandchildren. Not just see them but able to enjoy them and remember the experience. I am now a woman with a mission. A mission to share Nikken with anyone that will stop long enough to listen. If I spent the rest of my life sharing Nikken with everyone I can it would not give back to Nikken anything to compare with what Nikken has given me- My Life back!

I just wanted to tell you about a woman who has benefited greatly from the use of our products. When I first met her about 8 weeks ago she was in a lot of pain, particularly in her feet. She is 23 yrs old, registered disabled with Lupus and has suffered from it for 2 years. She asked me if I would help her. I loaned her a sleep system and asked her to buy a pair of insoles. Within a couple of days only, she reported an improvement in her condition. She was fairly negative and skeptical at the time I loaned her the products butafter only a couple of days, there were signs that she was responding to the products she had. People started to notice that she was walking better and this spurred her on. The cumulative effects of having our products around her, plus her other self-help strategies of going to do Pilates twice a week, regular Reflexology treatment and following the doctor's advice regarding diet/nutrition have resulted in a 70% improvement in her condition. She is a lovely, warm person and her personality has blossomed during the 8 weeks I have known her. She feels so much better and therefore, more positive about life. She said to me the other day 'you have made such a difference to my life that I can passionately tell others about these products and what they have done for me'. Isn't it wonderful when you can make a positive difference to another fellow human being's life? There's great work to be done.

One of my wellness consultants, Debi Brown forwarded this testimonial to me. Susan
My name is Tina Wootten. In Nov. 2000, I had a major health crisis. I became crippled, barely walking with a cane, debilitating pain, ulcerations in my mouth and esophagus. I was out on chemotherapy and high dose steroids. In Feb. 2001 I experienced a Lupus vasculitis to the brain. I had expressive aphasia. I truly did not think I would survive the year. My childhood friend Debi Brown got me introduced to Nikken magnetic products and they helped her with her back and neck. I am on disability so my finances are limited especially during a disease crisis due to the cost of medication and co-pays. She initially bought me the magnetic insoles, these energized me so that I could walk a little more distance and with less leg discomfort. She bought me the magnetic pearl earrings tohelp my brain involvement and has given me PiMag concentrate water to help my mouth ulcerations. I bought the magboy and magcreator and use them every day of my life now to roll out my discomfort. I can get immediate relief. My plan now is to take better care of myself and try to wean myself off the medication. There is no cure for my disease but these products have helped me along and I have my dear friend to thank for it.

Hi, when I was in another MLM with barley as their star product where there were lots of testimonials on lupus, so JGZ taken in enough volume should enable the lupus diseased body to heal itself. Lupus, as with most diseases is a mineral deficiency of one or more minerals. How much? At least two tbsps a day, I like it best in grape juice. And to aid the process I'd eat red grapes every day in moderation.

My daughter has Lupus and last Christmas I bought several items for her -- a sleep system (just the mattress pad rather than a full mattress), water bottle, CM Cream, MagBoys, various sizes of the Kenko magnetic promo pads, long johns, neck scarf and gloves, and the eye mask. She looked at everything with a doubtful eye and said she would try them but for me to understand that they probably would not work. Before I left her that evening I told her to put the CM Cream on her hands, ankles and feet. She called me the next morning so excited she could barely talk. It seems that every day when she would awaken her hands would be terribly swollen and so painful that she would not even be able to hold a toothbrush. Likewise, her feet and ankles would be terribly swollen and caused a throbbing pain. This particular morning, having rubbed the CM Cream as I had suggested, she awoke with absolutely no swelling and no pain! She loves all the products I took to her but the cream was an instant success.

From Diamond Barry Weinhouse:
Tuesday night in Melville New York I witnessed a miraculous product response and the heart of the man responsible. Anthony Bovay is the engineer responsible for the magnetic products we distribute. He was kind enough to accept an invitation to share his experiences with our technology and with Nikken, and incidentally bring along for demonstration the new body energizer. At the beginning of the preview I asked for a show of hands of new people and a lady in the front row raised her hand, I commented on her bravery. I then asked if any one was hurting, and again she raised her hand, her left hand that is. She proceeded to list her complaintsincluding her back hand and shoulder. "I can't raise my right arm." I reflected on Linda and my beginnings with Nikken almost ten years ago. I then introduced Anthony and he took over. Meanwhile the lady in the front row after about fifteen minutes on the body energizer took her seat. Out of the corner of my eye I saw that "deer in the headlights" look on her face and while Anthony continued, she raised both arms over her head and proceeded to cry. Incidentally she told me afterwards she suffers from Lupus. This was only one of a number of instantaneous responses that evening.

My wife, Suzanne, has had Lupus for over 20 years. In that time she has she has been taking about thirteen drugs a day and various pain medications. In the middle of those 20 years she developed cancer. Having Lupus and Cancer at the same time caused some serious complications. Thank God, a wonderful surgeon and my wife’s positive attitude - she is a cancer survivor. The Lupus though seemed to be getting worse. She experienced very painful joints and a lack of energy. In the mornings she would get up in pain and be very shaky on her feet, and having to hold the wall for balance. One day she went out shopping and had a seizure - with one every year for the next five years. They don’t know what caused them, but it was probably a Lupus flare up. She had to leave her job and go on disability. A specialist tested her for sleep patterns and found out she wakes every 10 minutes. The Doctor said that this was definitely a trigger for seizures. Things all changed when a lady named Joyce Barron, a friend from Dale Carnegie, called me and asked if I ever kept my optionsopen. I won’t go into all the particulars, but at the first meeting my wife sat on the Body Energizer. The swelling in her feet went away along with the pain and also the pain in her neck. The next meeting Joyce gave her a roll out and put her to sleep. We knew we had to get a Nikken Wellness Home. It is now more than a year and a half later. No more seizures, sleeps through the night, off half of her medications, and we have not taken a pain reliever since we joined the business and bought a Nikken Wellness Home. My wife has gained 10 years back on her life. People who knew her 10 years ago cannot believe the difference. An important side note. My wife has been on OsteoDenx for three months. She just had her blood work done. The results just blew us away. The Doctor said that there was an increase in her red blood cell count and that her bone marrow was very good. Something we
hadn’t heard before.

These pictures are quite graphic. The young girl is from Singapore , and there they call Lupus, "SLE". What a dramatic effect our products can have on a life! The business side of Nikken may start slowly, but if you persevere, people far and wide will have their lives changed. Here is how this girl got helped:
1. My daughter was helped from chronic fatigue and I became committed to share the products AND the business. I am nowa Diamond.
2. A close friend was getting her Doctorate, didn't want to join, but became a consultant after I loaned her a sleep system andher back improved dramatically. (After borrowing it for a 2nd time, as her husband thought he "couldn't sleep", whenactually he just woke up earlier as he was more refreshed") She is now a Platinum. 3. She sponsored a mutual friend who got immediate relief from the magboy with a frozen shoulder. She is now a Gold.
4. She sponsored an acquaintance who got immediate relief from laryngitis using a mini. (After having been loaned the sleep system for 6 months and never using it!!!) She is now a Platinum.
5. She sponsored her sister in Singapore , who had retired early from teaching because of a horrible bad back. She got great
relief and is now an active Silver.
6. She sponsored her brother who was looking for a part time business.
7. He sponsored a friend at work who also was looking for a business.
8. He loaned the products to a dying man who got great relief in his final time on earth.
9. His daughter joined Nikken and is the one who helped this young girl. She is a Muslim housewife with 6 kids (4 or 5 stilllive at home.) I was welcomed there 2 years ago and this petite woman is so inspiring. She has since gone Platinum. No one would have been helped if the vision and business side of Nikken hadn't also been shared along with the amazing products. So
if you keep sharing, you just never know who you might help. And you might build a global business too!

Diagnosed with SLE in early 2007
I was really sick. I visited many doctors but they cannot detect my sickness.
Till one day, I was told that I suffer from SLE from SGH.
My body felt as if I was dead. I had no energy and my body was dehydrated. I only lie restlessly on the bed with tubes all around me. I was giving up as I was told by the doctors that this disease has no cure. And it is rare among teenagers. I was always groaning in pain without energy and felt hopeless. I got some fits and low blood pressure. My kidneys were not functioning very well. And there were water around my heart. I started to forget things, like the dates, days and months. Life was hard, and I nearly gave up till Sariyah came.
Reflections after using NIKKEN my health improved tremendously. After drinking the optimized water, I can sleep easier in hospitals at night. I gain a lot of energy and I urinated a lot.
I can talk and make jokes more. I can understand more things that were taught to me.
After finishing the samples of water from Sariyah, I began to ask for more. Besides the wonderful fresh taste it has, it gave me a lot of strength to survive the day easily. Without hesitation, I persuaded my parents to buy me a set of NIKKEN Water System for the benefit of my health. And effectively, it helped me quite a lot. Although I still feel very restless at times, it helps me reduce the pain. After months using NIKKEN, my mother got a token from Sariyah. It is called greenzymes. At that time, I did not take it as I have lots of other medicines to take. Till one day, which is around early February 2008, I remembered about it and started taking it. It does taste yucky but it really helps me. It gave me the strength I have been longing for since I became sick. I felt like as if I was back like last time, so energetic. I was not as tired in school and I can participate in more activities without much hesitation. I feel so blessed and the changes encouraged me to continue having enzyme and drinking the optimized water. After months using NIKKEN, my mother got a token from Sariyah. It is called greenzymes.

Distilled and Reverse Osmosis Water
Over the years I have heard that one should drink alot of water to stay healthy. How much and how often and for that mater, what kind of water should be in the mix. Hopefully this article about the merits of different "quality" water types will help you decide for yourself what is best for you. I solict feed back and dialogue on this subject to help all the blog followers.
Have a blessed day,

I am often asked if distilled water is good for a person. First I think it important to understand what distilled water is. Distilled water is water that has been boiled, turned to steam, and then condensed, i.e. the temperature lowered, so that it returns to a liquid state, becomes water again. Why would anyone go through the trouble of doing this. Quite simply what you start with is water filled with other things such as chlorine, metals, medicine, you get the idea and what you end up with is pure water with nothing in it but water. Reverse Osmosis which is the type water forced through a membrane and found in most bottled water is also pure water. That sounds like the perfect fluid for the body doesn’t it? Pure water is good for you, right? Well the short answer is, no pure water is not good for you. Let’s examine why.
Your body is an electrical circuit. Your brain communicates and regulates every system in the body through a series of electrical signals sent through the nerves. Muscle contractions whether using muscles to smile of lift a heavy weight is dependent on a nerves firing deep within the muscle fibers to ignite a twitch. Ok but what exactly does that have to do with distilled, reverse osmosis, or pure water. Pure water is an insulator, it will not conduct electricity. What happens when you put an insulator in an electrical circuit? The flow of electricity stops. Communication ceases. However in the case of your body, being an amazing machine it, the body, has the ability to reach into the mineral bank of your body, your skeletal system and withdraw minerals to mix with this pure water so that it will become a conductor. The body really has no choice in the matter. It can ill afford to allow systems or communications to shut down. A couple of things occur when this happens. You run the risk of depleting your stores of minerals stored within the bone which can lead to problems such as osteoporosis, and arthritis. Also the heart is dependent on and electrolyte balance being maintained so it can beat at the proper rhythm. Disrupt this process and heart arrhythmia can result. It is also necessary for the body to use precious energy to change this pure water into a form that will not disrupt your bodies systems. This is energy your body could use to fight off virus or bacteria, or used to boost your immune system. Why waste this energy on an unnecessary chore?
So what is the alternative. The water you drink should be filtered yes to remove the chlorine, heavy metals, and medicine residue it contains, it should then have minerals put back in so that the water your drinking does not have to be altered by the body. Your body then does not need or have to withdraw minerals from your bones and cartilage. Why force the body to do something it does not have to do? This water, if the proper combination of minerals is used then becomes alkaline. Drinking alkaline water is one of the most important things you can do to preserve your health. Every system in the body responds to your drinking alkaline water. Cancer can only develop in an acidic environment. The average cancer patient in 1000 times more acidic than a healthy person. Cancer, arthritis, osteoporosis, gout, diabetes and many other diseases so common require and acidic environment it order to manifest, and maintain itself.
One other thing about pure water. The water clusters within pure water contain many water molecules, usually between 13 and 20. Water reacts like little magnets and will stick to one another in ever growing clusters especially if the water is pure. Water clusters have to be 6 or less in order to be absorbed into your body from the GI track. Here again your body can and will use energy to break down these clusters into smaller parts so the body can absorb this water. That’s why often times when you drink water fast you can feel it sloshing around in your stomach. The body is not able to absorb this water because the clusters are too big. It would be like trying to push a baseball through a garden hose. It just will not fit.
What do I do? I use water systems that filters out all the bad then put back into my water 17 minerals necessary for good health. The water I drink will also carry a current, that is so important for good health. This water is then passed through a magnetic field which breaks down these water clusters into smaller clusters so it is ready to be absorbed into my body!! Boy does that sound expensive!! By the time I pay for my system, replace the filters every 6 months, I have calculated I have about 7 cents in every gallon of water I drink or use for cooking. That’s cheaper than buying bottled water!!

Hya! Here's a testimonial I have from a fellow named Ron Klein re ALS and the use of the Nikken products. If this doesn't blow your mind, not sure what would! Stacey
My Story
On September 19,1997, I was 40 years old, in excellent health and physically fit. I was a triathlete, which meant that each day, I would ride my bike, swim, and go for a run. At 6'1" tall and 175lbs., I looked like the picture of health. On September 20, I woke up with an agonizing headache, feeling dizzy, and almost passing out. By the time I got to the doctor, my ears were ringing and I had a fever. Thinking that I had an ear infection, my doctor wrote a prescription and thought I would be better in a few days. But, instead I got worse, experiencing weakness in my legs, tingling sensations from head to toe and diminishing strength. My feet burned like they were on fire.
I was referred to a local neurologist and began a three year ordeal during which I saw more than ten specialists (including specialists at Johns-Hopkins and the Mayo Clinic) and participated in a series of experimental treatments involving more than 20 prescription drugs. I had weekly blood tests, underwent numerous biopsies, MRI's and even had a nuclear body test. As treatment after treatment failed, and as my symptoms changed and got progressively worse, I was told by the doctors that they did not know what else to do.
I describe below some of what happened to me during those three years and the profound benefit I have received from Nikken wellness technologies. Back to 1997... the local neurologist conducted numerous nerve and muscle diagnostic tests. I overheard the doctor ask his assistant to redo the tests, because I should not have been able to walk given the results. The tests came back abnormal again. I was sent to the hospital for a spinal tap and additional blood tests. The results were normal.
Perplexed by my symptoms and inconsistent test results, the neurologist referred me to Johns-Hopkins. At this point my body weight had dropped 20 lbs. My muscles were deteriorating, and I barely had enough strength to climb stairs. My right hand was getting weak, and I experienced severe nerve tremors, twitching, and muscle spasms, flaring up when I lay down and makingit virtually impossible to sleep without medication.
At Johns-Hopkins, one of the leading neurologists diagnosed a peripheral nerve disorder. My prospects were optimistic with treatment. But, I began to experience additional symptoms not consistent with the diagnosis. My lymph nodes enlarged, I had night sweats, and shortness of breath. As these are symptoms of Hodgkins disease and lymphoma, the doctors ordered more blood tests, but the results were normal.
By this time, I had dropped 30 lbs. in body weight, could barely walk upstairs without help, and I was fatigued all day. Also, the muscle on my right side had atrophied from my neck to my waist. It looked like the muscle was carved away. My right hand was so weak that I could barely use it. I was taking methadone during this time, because of widespread discomfort. I remained on the drug for a year, and had several side effects as a result. The drug caused dizziness, nausea, and sedation.
But, once again new symptoms developed. Sores and white spots appeared on my skin, and I experienced heart palpitations so severe that my heart felt like it would jump out of my chest. It was becoming difficult to swallow at times, and I needed to put my food in a blender.
I returned to Johns-Hopkins, and after additional nerve and muscle biopsies was given the devastating news that I had an incurable and fatal neuromuscular disorder, the same fate as former baseball great Lou Gehrig. I sought additional opinions from specialists at the Mayo Clinic, and the University of Miami, but the diagnosis was confirmed. The doctors requested a series of experimental treatments which involved going to the hospital for several days, and having daily infusions. The infusions were supposed to boost my immune system, but the effect was negative. I also had intense headaches after the treatments.
Having spent more than fifty thousand dollars of my money with no beneficial effect, I began to prepare for my eventual demise. I revised my will, and looked into intensive care facilities. I cannot describe the depth of my depression at this point. I was completely frustrated at the failure of all the treatments I had received, not to mention that I could barely manage the basics of living. I resigned to struggle through as best I could and tried to wean myself off some of the medication I was taking.
Then in late March 2001, my friend Martha Fruehauf called and told me about her very positive response using Nikken technologies. She has struggled for years with a debilitating health problem and was doing remarkably better. I have known Martha for many years and she is very credible so I decided to try some of Nikkens products for myself.
I began by using the magsteps(magnetic shoe inserts). The first day, there was an exacerbation of my symptoms, and I almost removed the insoles from my shoes. But, I decided to wait. By the second day, the symptoms were starting to relax. On the third day, I noticed an increase in my energy level and I became excited. I wanted to try more of Nikken products. I got a water bottle, the basic five nutritionals, the joint supplement, a set of mag boys, and a back flex. I soon ordered a PiMag unit for the home, because I did not have the strength to squeeze the water bottle.
I also purchased a sleep system. Within one week after using these additional products, I began to sleep for more than a few hours a night, and was waking up in the morning feeling refreshed. My strength was getting better, and for the first time in three years, I was able to walk upstairs free of agonizing muscle spasms. I was astounded. I was gaining weight, and was able to wean myself off some of the medication I was taking. I went to my doctor and had some lab tests done, and already the results were improving.
Over the next month, I began to see the muscle on my right side come back. This meant that the nerves were regenerating, an improvement that I was told would not happen. I ordered more of Nikkens products, including the kenkotherm wraps, necklace, bracelet, and the shower water filter. After using the shower head for a couple of weeks, the sores on my head and back were clearing up, and the skin on my entire body looked healthier.
Because I continued to feel better physically, my mental condition is drastically improved. Instead of dreading each day, and fearing a continued existence of agony, I can look forward to the future. Three months after beginning to use Nikkens products, my labs returned to normal. I was so happy when I heard the news, that I came home, dusted off my bike, and for the first time in three years was able to ride. It felt so wonderful that I also went for a brief run. I felt like I was sitting on top of the world.
I have my health back. I am living a dream come true. I am so excited about Nikken, not only what the products have done for me physically, but the opportunity it has given me to help others improve their health. I want to tell everyone about Nikken.
In closing, I thank my friend and sponsor Martha, who encouraged me to try Nikkens technologies. I am thrilled to be a part of her group and a member of the Nikken family. Without them, I know I would not be where I am today.
Sincerely,
Ronald L Klein

Hi Gang
I spoke to a young man, not yet 30, dealing with rapidly advancing ALS. So far, it is manifesting as weakness in his left arm - no respiratory fatigue, dysphagia, slurred speech or vision - etc. Amazing attitude - he considers himself lucky!
Two things;
i) I was mountain-biking with a group of very fit triathletes when I got that call. Twenty minutes after the call had ended and we were bombing back down the mountain we had just climbed, one of my fellow riders stopped me - moved to the verge of tears, grateful for having the health he enjoyed compared to the fellow I had just spoke to. In the same breath, he thanked me and my Nikken network for reaching out and helping people like that man.
We do make a difference!
ii) is there anyone in the Forum who has direct experience working with our products and an ALS patient? He bought a Professional pak and is using everything in it religiously. He is very keen to get one of the new KenkoLights at the launch.
Any suggestions or expertise would be much appreciated.
As always, I am proud and humbled to be a part of something so much bigger than all of us.
Cheers,
Rob

A message from the Heart for the Hip:)
Perhaps you are wondering why is John St. John taking time to share this kind of information. The reason is a sincere desire to grow and nourish relationships with my bloggers/facebook friends and anyone they know. In so doing I pray I can help their quality and quanity of life both phyically and financially if they desire. What I have seen happen in the lives of those I have been humbled to touch either through my efforts or that of the team is life changing. I am encouraging every person reading this to comment and share your thoughts. The end result of this blog should be an A to Z resource for Natural Solutions to Chronic problems. The more you "Like" this on facebook and this blog the more effective it will be in reaching those who suffer. We all know those who have had or are contemplating hip replacement. Many of us know return veterans who have challenges that this information could help. Making the recovery better and faster would be a blessing for them. If you look at Dr. John Jackson's blog posting on Bone Health posted December 27, 2010 in my archive, you might find a way to possibly prevent the damage in the first place. Have a blessed day.
Hip Testimonials (updated 6-16-06)
(These testimonials are not endorsed by Nikken. They are from people like you and me. We make NO MEDICAL CLAIMS -- and we
do not claim to heal or cure)
From: lewis@mlode.com
In a motorcycle accident in 1968 I popped the head of my femur out of the pelvis. Because of this I developed a long term chronic degenerative problem in my hip. In 1988 I was told I would be facing hip replacement. (while they were doing x-rays from a horse accident that fractured my hip in 2 places) By 1996 I had been, and was, wondering how much agony one should go through before taking the step to allow surgery. During this time my brother introduced me to the shoe insoles, and the mattress pad. Over a period of three months I noticed that the aching in my hips and lower back was gone. I was sleeping deeper than I ever thought possible, and not waking up when I turned. Yippee! I now use all the products, including putting the rubberthane with magnets from the car seat into both my husbands, and my motorcycle seats. - No numb butt! Love these products.

Two years ago we loaned my wife’s daughter a pair of Magsteps and a back flex to help her hip discomfort. They helped. But she had an unexpected result; the panic attacks she’d endured for several years, and which forced her to give up her job disappeared in four days. She didn’t believe the magnetics had any effect so she gave them back….the attacks returned. She experimented that way several times and now wears them full time and has been free of panic attacks for over a year.

I had a very painful time with arthritis in my left sacroiliac area. My rheumotolygist gave me very little hope. He sent me on my way with 24 hour pain medication. At 61 I saw years of increasing pain and lessoned activity. Earlier that year I had had breast cancer and felt the hopelessness of the arthritis diagnosis was far worse than cancer that was cured quite handily! A friend introduced me to Nikken products January, 2000. After five months I was completely discomfort free and take no medications except our wonderful nutritional products. I of course sleep on the sleep system and wake up with NO discomfort at all. I wear magsteps, a necklace and, most importantly, a Kenko back wrap with the Flex magnet and a Max to up the gauss strength over my worst area of discomfort. I used the heat pack for many months in the morning, but no longer need it. After talking with one of our nutritional experts I upped my daily intake of Joint to 12 a day for six weeks and also added Evening Primrose Oil that can be purchased at GNC. Evening Primrose Oils was recommended by one of our very knowledgable distributors as an important adjunct to Joint. I am now down to 4 Joint pills a day. I feel that all of the above measures were important, and was totally committed to sticking with the products. When pain is very chronic it often takes longer to eliminate it and/or lessen it. I hope this is helpful.

On January 12, 1985, at the age of fourteen, I was unfortunate enough to be on the receiving end of a deliberate act that left me with a broken hip. At the time I didn't know what to expect with my life. I had no idea what to expect over the next sixteen years. I am 30 years old now and I have a remarkable testimony. Since the initial break in 1985, I have had seven operations including two total hip replacements. I had no idea I would have to go through that many operations all before I was 25 years old. Plus, I had no idea that I was going to end up being 6'9" either. I was 5'6" when I broke my hip and a freshman in high school. Not only did I have to deal with the physical hurt, I had to deal with the emotional hurt also. One thing the doctor's didn't tell me is that not only will I walk with a limp, but I will hurt all over. I lost 2 1/4" off my left leg. So the combination of the shorter leg and limp left me with all sorts of problems. Shortly after the last operation, I decided that I needed to start working out. I started out slow and with the help of a trainer I started getting stronger. The one thing I was really focused on was leg press. I only have one hip!! How can this be possible? The last operation is when I broke my artificial hip and they removed it and didn't replace it. So, my trainer looked at my x-rays and said I could do leg presses.
Then NIKKEN found me. I started feeling better and stopped hurting. I also noticed an increase in my strength. I started putting on
some good size. As of October 25, 2000, I leg pressed 900 lbs 6 times without help. AWESOME!!! The best is yet to come There's no way I would be able to do this without the use of NIKKEN products. I stopped hurting and I'm doing things that I never thought would be possible. This stuff really works!!

My husband had a total hip replacement on Dec. 20th-the hospital staff estimated that he would be in hospital 10-14 days. We just smiled and said "we'll see". He used nothing but the comforter for the first 3 days, then used mag-strides and flex. All the rehab people where "blown away" by his abilities. He had more stamina than any other patient in the department. It was fun just to listen to him tell others what his "secret" was. We made lots of friends and met lots of people who want to know more. Thank goodness for these wonderful products, we sometimes forget what a treasure we have to share. These wonderful products help people heal about 50% faster.

My 88 yr. old father lives in a nursing center, out of state. Nearly a year ago he fell and broke his hip. With the Dr's. permission, we put a mini and a maxi over the incision areas. By evening, there were two skin-colored spots over the severe bruising area. He called them his "headlight and spotlight". In 5 weeks, I accompanied him to the surgeon's follow-up appointment, at which time they did an x-ray. There was NO sign of any broken bone. In fact, there was shadows of new bone growth all along the old bone. The Dr. was amazed!

I am 74 years old and broke my right femur just below the hip joint in March of 2000. It was a complete break, not just a fracture, and was repaired with a steel plate and seven screws, using the same type of plate that's used for broken hips. While in the hospital I insisted that the bandage include my magstrides, the only magnets I had with me at the time, in Orlando. After arriving at my home in Huntsville, AL, I began using Super Minis, as many as four at the same time, lined up along the incision. Although my local orthopedist is not convinced of the efficacy of magnets he was so pleased with the way the bone was healing that he told me to keep using them. After ten months I'm still using a cane to assist in walking, but hope to discard it soon. Incidentally, I have Paget's Disease of the Bone, which made recovery more difficult.

I signed up as a distributor and bought a Nikken mattress pad because I had problems getting enough sleep at night. The reason I didn't sleep well was because I would wake up with a burning sensation in the hip area on which I was laying. I would turn over and would sleep until that hip would wake me up because it was burning. After I slept on the mattress a few nights the burning in my hips went away. I have had the mattress a little over a year now and another nice side effect is that my varicose veins are greatly diminished and don't hurt at all anymore. Also, my husband doesn't snore hardly ever anymore since we added the rest of the sleep system. One word of caution: don't lay down on the bed unless you are planning to be sleeping as you will fall asleep fast. We have our only t.v. in the bedroom and if I watch t.v. after coming home from work I soon am sound asleep (not too good if you do that at 6 or 7 P.M. Thanks Nikken for all the wonderful products!

After only 5 weeks post surgery I am walking with a cane and pain free. I contribute this to the wonderful Nikken products that I'm using during my recuperation. I'm using the sleep system, the necklace, the elastomag back belt, and the CM complex creme. The creme has worked well around the incision areas for minor aches etc. My sciatic area was inflamed and my doctor was prescribing a pain killer and muscle relaxer which, thankfully, I never had to use because once I started using the back belt the pain running down my affected leg calmed down and did not bother again. The necklace and sleep system kept me relaxed without any neck discomfort from the many hours that have to be spent lying strictly on your back. Feel free to contact me if you have additional questions. I have had 4 total joint replacements, and fortunately I have been able to use Nikken products for 2 of them!

I wanted to pass on this wonderful testimonial….. March 5, 2003
(Mr. Turner does not have a computer. He is available for 3-way calls: (909) 686-4633 FAX: (909) 686-0603 - He is 77 years old) I like to inform you of the results of my use of the CardioStrides and Joint Formula.
The situation was this: between June 17, 2001 and April 29, 2002 I had four (4) dislocations and two (2) surgeries on the same left hip. It had been replaced in January of 1998. From April 29, '02 to the end of May '02 when I was released from the convalescent hospital, my long walks were only a fond memory.
Through June, July and August of '02 the walks were done first with a walker, then a cane and then very slowly with just regular walking shoes.
August 30, 2002: De CardioStrides. Height: 5'6"; weight: 168 lbs.; waist line: 38". Six months later, February '03: Height: still the same; weight: 144 lbs.; waist line: 32". CardioStrides work! Now about the Joint. When I first started, the hip would "snap". Very uncomfortable. Now with using the Joint Formula in only snaps
when I try too hard going downhill. Plus, I don't take any more pain pills. The hip seems to have a smooth action, as if it had just been
greased.

Six weeks ago I had a total hip replacement. Upon returning home, I needed to stay in a rented hospital bed for easy "in and out" to the bathroom. As such, I stayed in our college-bound son's room and used his bathroom. The following is a chronicle of how NIKKEN technologies assisted me in my recovery. We placed the demo pad on the hospital bed and used the far-infrared comforter exclusively. Also with these I used two Palm Mag units - (several times a day for @ 30 minutes at a time) - one on my hip and theother on the same knee, which, prior to surgery, had been extremely painful due to walking incorrectly while favoring my hip. When having my first checkup with the orthopedic doctor, he was impressed with my mobilityand at the second visit, at which time X-rays were taken, he pronounced that I was "well ahead of the curve" in the healing process. I quickly progressed from the walker to a cane, and now many times have to walk from room to room to find where I left the cane when going outside the house! I must also relate that our son's bathroom does not have a NIKKEN showerhead. Because of the shape and size of his tub/shower, it was easier for me to get into his rather than ours. Within two weeks of daily bathing I noticed my skin was extremely dry and cracking and my dandruff and athlete's foot infection returned, none of which had been a problem since using the showerhead. Use of the Swiss SoFlower products have been helpful, as well as returning to our bathroom with the shower filter. The daily drinking of at least two (2) pitchers full of PiMag/Optimized water aided in ridding the effects of the anesthesia and cleansing my body of toxins associated with medication given while hospitalized. For a few days soon after surgery I noticed that my legs and feet were extremely sore, but were quickly comfortable again when inserting the MagSteps into my bedroom slippers. Even when traditional medical and surgical intervention is necessary to correct a physical challenge, the NIKKEN technologies go a long way to making the recovery process a quicker and more comfortable experience.

We were introduced to the sleep system after much prayer about our energy level that would not increase. I had a complete hipreplacement and breast cancer with 7 weeks of radiation. My energy level was non-existent. I fought 24/7 pain with my hip though I tried various programs to increase energy - increased vitamins and exercise. Nothing worked. John and Annette Jackson introduced us to the sleep system and magnets for our shoes. At first sleeping on the mattress seemed to intensify the nightly pain. Then I realized the magnets may be drawing the pain out. I was taking daily doses of Tylenol arthritis We also started using the water system. My energy is increased almost to normal. At night I apply CM cream to injured knee and hip. This diminishes discomfort at night so I sleep sounder. My husband had extreme back discomfort because of all the heavy lifting and constant work he was doing on 18 acres of property plus keeping up with two homes. Since sleeping on the mattress, his pain is subsiding. He, too, has more energy and sleeps sounder. We try to take our mattress with us when we go home. This week we did not take it. I have found that I have to again take Tylenol for the knee and hip pain. We can definitely tell the difference when we do not have our sleep system. We know now that we could not keep up our schedule and the work we do without the sleep system, insoles, and water. We cannot be without the help we receive from the Nikken products.

A friend who has been using only a few Nikken products, finally decided to sleep under a personal comfort pad while sleeping on top of a travel pad. Two days after starting this, she called in amazement. Her hip pain had almost disappeared and she had been wondering if she needed a hip replacement!

This procedure worked on an 82 year old female who was told she needed hip replacement surgery. 1. Nikken joint pills- at least 6 pills / day. we told her 2 in morning, midday and before bed. Since we just learned in a recent post that one ingredient is derived from shellfish ask about shellfish allergies before recommending. 2. Body energizer- place person in straight back chair and put B.E. machine in lap. Have them put fore arms lightly on foot plates to stabilize machine. Run on top speed for at least 30 minutes. The idea for using B.E. machine on lap came from my son Mark who was doing this for thigh problems in athletes. Results-P word started subsiding the first week. Person started to walk without cane or walker during second week. Third week bought body energizer and more joint. Put her on B.E. twice a day for 30 minutes each. Saw her this week and she says she is doing great.

My brother-in-law (age 57) had hip replacement surgery 2 weeks ago. After 4 days in the hospital he went to a rehab center for a week. I took him a travel pad to lay on and a PiMag water bottle to drink from. The travel pad greatly reduced his need for pain medication. The water of course helped get him hydrated. He arrived at the rehab center with a very swollen ankle (same side as hip surgery). I brought in the Body Energizer, propped it against the foot of the bed and he put his feet against it while he was lying down. The first time we used it for about 1 ½ hours while we visited. The swelling was noticeably reduced. The next evening I brought it back and we repeated for 1 ½ hours and it was almost back to normal. In addition, he said it took away all the stiffness and soreness he was experiencing because of his physical therapy sessions and really got him ready to go back the next day and work even harder. His physical therapist said he had never seen such fast progress. My brother-in-law is now home and happy to be back on his Kenkopad. He feels his hip surgery was postponed several years because of the Kenkopad. Actually until recently, he thought he had a back problem, rather than a hip problem. He is a house painter and has been able to work right up until this surgery.

I have arthritis in both hips and ruptured disc @ T12/L1; the disc @ L4/5 & S1/2 are herniated, so I have lots of lower back trouble. The rupture @ T12 caused tremendous pain in my left hip area. I found that using the KenkoWave for about 8 hours straight helped a lot! I had it on pulse all through the night. It was the first night I had been able to sleep in 6 weeks. I’m free from that awful pain and I’m not taking any of the nasty drugs that the doctors had prescribed. I started taking 4 Immunity/day, alternating with 4 Joint/day. I take Jade Greens 3 times/day; CIAGA at least once a day, sometimes twice. I wear the back flex inside the back belt, wrapped around
