April 18, 1991

It is a distinct pleasure and privilege to write you with my testimony regarding my experience using the wonderful healing vitamins, Vitacel GH7 and the wonders that I have received from its usage.

I really get excited when I tell the story about my experience with something the medical field termed as a disease called Systemic Lupus. In November 1990,I was diagnosed as having Lupus and the symptoms that go along with this dreaded disease. I was immediately prescribed two powerful medications for my Lupus treatment, to aid in the flexibility of the movement of my arthritic knee joints and joint-area throughout my body. At one point prior to my diagnosis, I had problems with the movement of my knees, feet and hands. It was during that period that my uncle, Frederick Young, introduced me to Vitacel GH7 nutriments, the wonder vitamin. Shortly thereafter, my uncle suggested that I talk with you, Mrs. Allan. To this day, my uncle, you and Vitacel products, continue to be such an inspiration to me.

Although I was already taking Lupus medication, I continued to take Vitacel GH7 without cease, as directed. After a brief period, I was taken off of one of the prescription Lupus medications by my physician with only one medication left to take. As time progressed (several months passed away), I noticed that there were some side effects with the medication that I was still taking. I consulted my physician about those side effects (such as nervousness and shortness of breath periodically) and because my physician had not heard of such side effects that would correspond with that particular medication and my diagnosis, I was informed to continue taking the medication for one year.

I decided within myself that this is my body and I do not have to suffer with side effects and continue to experience misery. In March 1991, I made a decision to discontinue taking the second prescription medication due to the adverse side effects. I am now solely relying upon prayer and the wonder vitamin to boost my autoimmune system, Vitacel 7. I am currently taking eight Vitacel supplements per day.

I feel great! I am excited, and enthusiastic about this whole experience. Thank you and God Bless.

Lupus Causes

Scientists believe there is a genetic predisposition to the disease, as lupus is known to occur within families. However, there is no known gene or genes which are thought to cause the illness. There are recent discoveries of a gene on chromosome 1 which is associated with lupus in certain families. Previously, genes on chromosome 6 called "immune response genes" were also associated with the disease. Only 10 percent of lupus patients will have a close relative (parent or sibling) who already has or may develop lupus. Statistics show that only about five percent of the children born to individuals with lupus will develop the illness.

Lupus is often called a "woman's disease" despite the fact that many men are affected. Lupus can occur at any age, and in either sex, although it occurs 10-15 times more frequently among adult females than among adult males after puberty or after the emergence into sexual maturity. The symptoms of the disease are the same in men and women. People of African, American Indian, and Asian origin are thought to develop the disease more frequently than Caucasian women. The reasons for this ethnic selection are not clear.

Hormonal factors may explain why lupus occurs more frequently in females than in males. The increase of disease symptoms before menstrual periods and/or during pregnancy support the belief that hormones, particularly estrogen, may somewhat regulate the way the disease progresses. However, the exact reason for the greater prevalence of lupus in women, and the cyclic increase in symptoms, is unknown.
