Stroke Testimonial # 4
Julie’s husband seems to be responding well to treatment and mangosteen juice after suffering a stroke.
My husband had a stroke on March 1, 2004. It affected his speech and right hand and arm. At times his hand was swelled and hurt something terrible. He has been going to speech and hand therapy 3 days a week since he came home from the hospital. His energy was down to 0 and he didn’t have interest in anything.
Since drinking mangosteen juice 10 days ago, he is having so much energy and his hand has going down to normal.
He still has the affects from the stroke, like trying to pick up things and use his hand to eat but at least the awful pain is gone.
We have a rock garden on a steep bank in our yard and yesterday I looked out and he had climbed to the top and was pulling weeds. This takes a lot of energy to do this. His speech still has a long way to go but he has been saying more words in the last week.
From the stress of the stroke my Arthritis has been flaring up and somedays I could hardly get out of bed. As of now I have been pain free and am full of energy. I can’t say enough about the product.

Stroke Testimonial # 5
After suffering 3 strokes in 2002, Lorraine’s life was a mess. After taking only half the maintenance order of mangosteen juice for a week she noticed improvements and hasn’t looked back.
In June 2002 I suffered 3 strokes due to unknowingly having Rheumatic Fever as a child. As I needed to be put onto blood thinning tablets I also needed to have a Hysterectomy, performing my normal duties as a wife, mother and a swim school owner operator was very hard. I was always extremely tired and stressed and was almost ready to give up the swim school which has been a great love for the past 8 years.
Recently a knight in shining armor came along on the 20th July 2003, and said:
“Why don’t you try mangosteen juice?”
I asked all about it and decided I couldn’t be any worse than I was:
-
after one week taking 50 ml a day (2 oz.), I noticed a slight difference in my energy levels. After three weeks I couldn’t believe how great I felt, I had so much energy
- I have also suffered with lots of heart palpitations since June 2002, after 6 weeks on the mangosteen juice, these have totally stopped
- I had some internal bleeding 9 months after my hysterectomy. After 6 weeks on the juice, this has healed with no medical interference
- my ankles have always been swollen due to fluid. I now have normal shapely ankles
- I am so much calmer with everything and I don’t get stressed
- I sleep so well and am happy to get up when I wake up. Closing my swim school is certainly OFF my agenda
I will never stop taking mangosteen juice, it has changed my whole life. I want to spread the word.
Thank you.

Stroke Testimonial # 6
Gerene seems to say that her recovery from a stroke 2 years ago was progressing slowly but mangosteen juice seems to have made that process considerably easier…and she’s optimistic about full recovery.
I suffered a stroke two years ago, which left me with no surface sensation on my left side. Fortunately, I am now able to do most of what I could before the stroke, but I did suffer:
-
great bouts of depression, mainly from frustration at being unable to play my musical instruments or sing
-
general weakness
-
lethargy &
-
sleep deprivation
I’ve been drinking mangosteen juice for 8 months, and my energy level has been steadily increasing, as well as my strength. My sleep patterns have improved, and I once again feel that life is well worth living, despite the challenges.
I am anticipating 100% recovery with mangosteen.

Dr. Joel Stein M.D. has only recently written Stroke And The Family: A New Guide (The Harvard University Press Family Health Guides), a guide for the family when a family member has suffered a stroke.
“Joel Stein has written a comprehensive guide to stroke for patients and their families. It covers all the basics of stroke care, from prevention to returning home from hospital through rehab. Dr. Stein’s book will be a ‘must’ for families and patients living with the after effects of stroke.
The writing is clear and easy to understand and the information-packed text uses patient vignettes skillfully to illustrate very important issues in an engaging and humane manner.”

“My aunt became partially incapacitated by a stroke at the age of 55, and I took on the responsibility of assisting her in her day-to-day activities. I bought a number of books on stroke, but found this one to be by far the most comprehensive and sensitively written on the subject.”

FYI:
- In August 2005, Science Daily reported that in a study of over 5,000 female smokers who were married to men who smoked had a 600% higher risk of having a stroke than those married to non-smokers.
