SECRET #1
Billion-dollar drug company hides astounding discovery
of a natural cancer killer
10,000 times stronger than chemo—but without the side effects!
Recently, Health Sciences Institute (HSI) uncovered a remarkable story about a natural cancer
killer that had been kept under lock and key for over 20 years. With this information, the future of
cancer treatment and the chances of survival look more promising than ever.
There’s a healing tree that grows deep within the Amazon rainforest in South America that could
literally change how you, your doctor, and possibly the rest of the world think about curing cancer.
Since the 1970s, the bark, leaves, roots, fruit, and fruit seeds of the Amazonian Graviola tree have
been studied in numerous laboratory tests and have shown remarkable results with this deadly disease.
Several years ago, a major pharmaceutical company began extensive independent research on it.
They learned that certain extracts of the tree actually seek out, attack, and destroy cancer cells.
Because the natural extracts themselves could not be patented, the company labored to create a synthetic
copy that showed the same promise.
After more than seven years of work behind closed doors, researchers at this company realized
they couldn’t duplicate the tree’s natural properties with a patentable substance. So they shut down
the entire project. It basically came down to this—if they couldn’t make huge profits, they would
keep the news of this possible cure a well-guarded secret.
But one researcher couldn’t bear that, and decided to risk his job with the hope of saving lives.
Seven years of silence broken
This conscience-driven researcher contacted Raintree Nutrition, a natural products company dedicated
to harvesting plants from the Amazon. In the course of working with Raintree on another
story, they shared the exciting Graviola breakthrough with us.
Since then, we’ve been looking closely into the research to date on Graviola. One of the first scientific
references to it in the United States was by the National Cancer Institute (NCI). In 1976, the NCI
showed that the leaves and stems of this tree were effective in attacking and destroying malignant
cells. But these results were part of an internal NCI report and were, for some reason, never made
public.1
Since 1976, there have been several promising cancer studies on Graviola. However, the tree’s
extracts have yet to be tested on cancer patients. No doubleblind clinical trials exist, and clinical trials
are typically the benchmark mainstream doctors and journals use to judge a treatment’s value.

Nevertheless, our research has uncovered that Graviola has been shown to kill cancer cells in at least
20 laboratory tests. The most recent study, conducted at Catholic University of South Korea, revealed
that two chemicals extracted from Graviola seeds showed comparable results to the chemotherapy drug
Adriamycin when applied to malignant breast and colon cells in test tubes.2
Another study, published in the Journal of Natural Products, showed that Graviola is not only comparable
to Adriamycin—but dramatically outperforms it in laboratory tests. Results showed that it
selectively killed colon cancer cells at “10,000 times the potency of Adriamycin.”3
Perhaps the most significant result of the studies we’ve researched is that Graviola selectively seeks
out and kills cancer cells—leaving all healthy, normal cells untouched. Chemotherapy indiscriminately
seeks and destroys all actively reproducing cells, even normal hair and stomach cells, causing such devastating
side effects as hair loss and severe nausea.
Grown and harvested by indigenous people in Brazil, Graviola is available in limited supply in the
United States and is distributed through Raintree Nutrition. But now, you can be among the select few
in the entire country to benefit from this powerful treatment.
We encourage you to consult with your doctor before beginning any new therapy, especially when
treating cancer. Graviola has been combined with seven other immune-boosting herbs in a product
called NTense. As a dietary supplement, you should take six to eight capsules of N-Tense per day.
Graviola and N-Tense are completely natural substances with no side effects apart from possible
mild stomach upset at high dosages (in excess of 5 grams) if taken on an empty stomach.
If you’ve been diagnosed with cancer, you and your doctor should look into all the available treatment
options. Graviola could just make all the difference in beating cancer. See the Product Source

SECRET #2
Both types of arthritis pain vanish
Doctors stunned to find why New Zealand Maori have very little joint disease
Imagine if you didn’t need pain relievers every day? The Health Sciences Institute has uncovered
something totally new—a completely safe and natural food extract that may be the most powerful antiinflammatory
compound ever discovered.
It’s called Lyprinol, an active lipid fraction isolated from the New Zealand green-lipped mussel, or
Perna canaliculus. According to centuries-old tradition, native Maoris believe that eating the greenlipped
mussel leads to a long and healthy life. And, in fact, medical statistics show that arthritis and
rheumatic disorders are unknown among the coastal-dwelling Maori.
Scientists have now determined that the antiarthritic properties of the green-lipped mussel are due
to the unique configuration of certain polyunsaturated fatty acids (or PUFAs) called Eicosatetraenoic
Acids (ETAs). Related to the Omega-3 fatty acids found in fish, flaxseed, and perilla oil, ETAs display
more intense and targeted antiinflammatory and anti-arthritic activity than any other known PUFA or
Omega-3 fatty acid.
Research in the 1970s and 1980s confirmed that something in the New Zealand green-lipped mussel had
the ability to erase arthritic pain and stiffness. A double-blind, placebo-controlled trial conducted in 1980 at the
Victoria Hospital in Glasgow, England, tested a powdered mussel supplement on 66 arthritis patients.1
At the start of the six-month trial, all of the subjects had failed to respond to conventional treatment
and were scheduled for surgery to repair badly damaged joints. At the close of the trial, the researchers
reported improvements in 68 percent of the rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients and in 39 percent of
the osteoarthritis (OA) patients. The scientists also noted the low incidence of adverse side effects.
Nearly two decades later scientists perfect the solution
For the next 18 years, leading scientists from universities and research labs in Australia, Japan, and
France worked together to understand the secret locked within the green-lipped mussel. Step by incremental
step, the scientists managed to identify the active biological fraction of the green-lipped mussel,
isolate it without destroying its essential properties, cleanse it of impurities, stabilize it, and standardize
its potency for reliable results.
At every step of the way, clinical and laboratory studies confirmed that scientists were moving in the
right direction. Their excitement mounted as each phase yielded a more potent and powerful compound.
Even early versions of the green-lipped mussel extracts were found to be more effective than aspirin
and ibuprofen in reducing inflammation. But inflammation isn’t the only thing it helped. In 1986, a
trial of 53 RA patients, conducted by the Societé Française de Biologic et Dietique (SFBD) in Dijon,
France, found that the greenlipped mussel extract reduced pain by 62 percent after six months, while
those on a placebo had a 20 percent increase in pain.2
Lyprinol: 200 times more effective than high potency fish oil in controlling swelling
Ultimately, scientists zeroed in on the ETAs in the green-lipped mussel as the active ingredients
Visit us online at www.HSIBaltimore.com 4
11 Medical Breakthroughs:11 Medical Breakthroughs 9/26/08 10:21 AM Page 4
responsible for its remarkable anti-arthritic effects. This specific grouping of ETAs is not found in any
other known substance. The methods used to concentrate these active components in a pure and stable
form have been granted patents in several countries. The final result is now available as Lyprinol.
Researchers at the University of Queensland in Brisbane, Australia, studied the efficacy of Lyprinol
using laboratory animals with adjuvant-induced polyarthritis, which is the closest model for rheumatoid
arthritis in humans.3When administered as an oral supplement, Lyprinol reduced arthritis-related swelling
in the animal’s paws by more than 90 percent. It was also effective when rubbed directly into the affected area.
Comparisons of Lyprinol to other natural lipids, or fatty acids, known to be helpful in treating
arthritis and inflammation, tested Lyprinol against flax oil, evening primrose oil, Norwegian salmon oil,
and MaxEPA (a high potency fish oil product). Of these, Lyprinol was the most effective in preventing
arthritis-related swelling, reducing swelling by 79 percent. MaxEPA was the next best at 50 percent.
However, the real story is the 11 dosages used to achieve these results. Achieving a 50 percent effectiveness
rate required a dosage of 2000 mg/kg body weight of MaxEPA. But the effective dosage of
Lyprinol was only 20 mg/kg—or 1/100 the amount. Extrapolations from these results suggest that the
anti-inflammatory compounds in Lyprinol are 200 times more potent than MaxEPA (and 350 times
more potent than evening primrose oil).
Outperforms arthritis drugs without harmful side effects
Researchers also compared the effectiveness of Lyprinol to that of the prescription arthritis drug
indomethacin, the mainstream drug of choice at the time of the study. A dosage of 5 mg/kg of
Lyprinol was 97 percent effective in reducing swelling, while indomethacin was only 83 percent effective
at the same dosage.
Unlike indomethacin, Lyprinol is non-toxic and essentially free of side effects. In a 2000 study,
researchers found that when compared to NSAIDs, three Lyprinol was “non-gastro toxic.”4
Recommendations for use
Lyprinol is recommended for the alleviation of inflammatory conditions, including osteoarthritis,
rheumatoid arthritis, and virally-induced arthritis. While Lyprinol appears to be the most powerful
anti-inflammatory and arthritis pain reliever yet discovered, it still won’t rebuild or restore previously
damaged cartilage. For the most complete healing of arthritis, we recommend you combine Lyprinol
with a natural joint building supplement containing glucosamine and chondroitin.
Recommended amounts: The amount needed for optimal results can vary widely for each individual,
but range between two and four capsules per day. A higher amount (up to six capsules per day) can be
used for the first one to two weeks of use. It can take up to four weeks to evaluate the full benefit. In
addition, the research suggests that rubbing Lyprinol onto swollen and tender joints can help relieve
pain and swelling. To do this, simply open the capsule and squeeze the contents onto the affected area.
See the Product Source Directory in the back of this report to learn how you can order Lyprinol.

SECRET #3
The “Perfect Cure for Heart Disease”
Sugar cane extract rivals popular cholesterol-lowering drugs,
without the dangerous side effects
Amid reports of health problems and deaths caused by statin drugs, HSI has learned that an extract
of a commercial crop––sugar cane––can lower cholesterol just as effectively.
As we’ve told our members over the past couple of years, cholesterol isn’t the primary cause of heart
disease...homocysteine levels are. Nevertheless, cholesterol does play an important role in coronary
health, and any good program for reversing heart disease must address that as well.
So you can imagine how excited we were when our researchers discovered that a sugar cane extract
could dramatically reduce cholesterol levels. While it’s drawn from the same plant that produces table
sugar, policosanol doesn’t affect blood sugar levels when ingested.
Cuban scientists, however, have discovered that it can have a cholesterol-reducing effect1 without
creating the uncomfortable and even dangerous side effects associated with statin drugs.2,3 Statin drugs
lower elevated cholesterol by limiting cholesterol production in the liver, but they also have side effects
ranging from heartburn to potentially fatal cases of muscle breakdown.
This widely prescribed class of drugs–– statin sales topped $14 billion last year––includes the brand
names Lipitor, Lescol, Zocor, Mevacor, Pravachol, Prevastatin, and Baycol (which was recalled after
being linked to over 40 deaths). In several studies that compared both cholesterollowering methods,
policosanol surpassed the performance of statin-drug therapy.
One Cuban study compared the effects of policosanol to Pravastatin on patients who had elevated
cholesterol levels and were considered to be at high risk for coronary disease. Patients took 10 mg of
either policosanol or Pravastatin with their dinners for eight weeks. The group taking statins saw their
LDL levels fall by 15.6 percent and their total cholesterol by 11.8 percent. But those in the policosanol
group exceeded those numbers, and dropped their LDL levels by 19.3 percent and their total cholesterol
by 13.9 percent.
The HDL levels of the statin test subjects remained the same,
while the policosonal group increased their HDL by 15.7 percent.
Because HDL cholesterol aids in the removal of fat from arterial walls, an increase in these levels is
beneficial. Thousands of people struggle with cholesterol problems, and the chance of developing high
cholesterol increases as we age. As we grow older, our hormone levels drop, making it easier for cholesterol
levels to rise in our bodies.
Researchers believe policosanol may be a safe method of reducing and regulating LDL. In a clinical
trial involving 244 post-menopausal women with high cholesterol, researchers first attempted to bring
down elevated lipid levels through six weeks of a standard lipidlowering diet.
When this proved unsuccessful, they gave the women 5 mg of policosanol daily for 12 weeks, then
10 mg daily for another 12 weeks. Researchers found that the supplement was effective in significantly
lowering LDL levels (25.2 percent) and total cholesterol (16.7 percent). In addition, the women expe-

11 Medical Breakthroughs:11 Medical Breakthroughs 9/26/08 10:21 AM Page 6
rienced a 29.3 percent increase in HDL levels.4
Extract relieves painful leg cramps
One of the common––and debilitating––side effects of high cholesterol is a syndrome known as
intermittent claudication––a cramping pain in the calves. This is often linked to poor circulation and
the presence of arterial fat deposits (atherosclerosis). Intermittent claudication occurs only during certain
times, such as after walking.
Removal of arterial fat deposits has been found to decrease claudication. Researchers at the Medical
Surgical Research Center in Havana, Cuba tested policosanol patients who suffered from moderately
severe intermittent claudication. In this two-year long study, 56 patients were randomly assigned to
receive either policosanol or a placebo.
Researchers determined if the policosanol was relieving the claudication by conducting treadmill
walking tests on each subject before the study and again on 6, 12, 18, and 24 months after beginning
treatment. Although both test groups showed some progress during the interim tests, the final results
indicated that policosanol had a significant benefit for sufferers of intermittent claudication. After two
years of treatment, patients in the placebo group were able to walk a maximum of .15 miles while the
group taking policosanol could walk .40 miles before having to stop.
The 21 people taking policosanol increased their walking distance by at least 50 percent. Only five
members of the placebo group showed a similar improvement.5 And it’s possible that policosanol could
do more than alleviate the risk of heart disease, circulatory problems, and other ailments commonly
associated with high cholesterol...
A possible defense against Alzheimer’s
Dora M. Kovacs, Ph.D., a researcher at Massachusetts General Hospital, recently received a
$200,000 research grant to study the side effects of cholesterol on the development of Alzheimer’s
Disease (AD). She found that even normal levels of cholesterol may increase the risk of senility-causing
plaques and neurofibrillary tangles in the brain, which are associated with the development and
progress of AD.6
Dr. Kovacs’ research is focusing on the development of drugs that inhibit the production of ACAT,
an enzyme that enables cholesterol and other lipids (fats) to enter cells and form solid lipid droplets
there. Those droplets can hinder the normal functioning of the cell. They can also increase amyloid
beta production, which is associated with the progress of mind-robbing plaques and tangles. When
lipid droplet levels increase, amyloid beta production increases…and so does the risk of Alzheimer’s.
Dr. Kovacs and her research team believe that ACAT-inhibiting drugs are the keys to halting the
process of cholesterol and lipid buildup that results in AD. But the related research is in its early stages.
Dr. Kovacs plans, but has not yet started, to test ACAT inhibitors on mice specially bred to have AD.
Other researchers have developed a potentially safe class of ACAT inhibitors to treat atherosclerosis.
But it may be another five to 10 years before this family of drugs is thoroughly developed, tested, and
made available to the public.
There may be an alternative therapy available right now, however. In an interview with Emma Hitt,
Visit us online at www.HSIBaltimore.com 7
11 Medical Breakthroughs:11 Medical Breakthroughs 9/26/08 10:21 AM Page 7
Ph.D. for the Reuters news service, Dr. Kovacs indicated that several studies have shown that patients
who take statin drugs have lower rates of AD and other types of dementia. Cholesterol lowering statins
do not appear to hinder the ACAT enzyme, but the act of maintaining low cholesterol levels lowers the
risk of dementia.
Since statin drugs can induce serious side effects, policosanol may prove to be a better alternative.
In double-blind trials, policosanol produced mild, short-term side effects ––such as insomnia,
headache, diarrhea, nervousness, and weight loss––in less than 1 percent of test subjects. So policosanol
may prove to be an efficacious mind-saver as well as a life-saver.
Caution: Researchers warn that policosanol can interact with blood-thinning drugs. So if you try
policosanol (after consulting your doctor), your dose of blood-thinning medication may have to be
adjusted with careful medical monitoring. If you would like to purchase policosanol, see the Product
Source Directory at the end of this report. If you’re already taking cholesterol-lowering drugs or being
treated for any other health condition, you should consult with your doctor before trying policosanol
or discontinuing any prescription drug.

SECRET #4
Diabetes Defeated
The botanical breakthrough that’s leaving doctors flabbergasted
This is the story of how one member of the Health Sciences Institute got off insulin in six weeks…
after nine years on prescription drugs! And if only she’d known about this “blood sugar supplement”
she could have prevented the whole problem before it ever started!
June was a 56-year-old with diabetes. She had been on insulin and oral prescription medications
for nine years when she agreed to test a new natural solution. Within six weeks, she stopped not only
her insulin but another prescription drug as well.
You read that right: In just six weeks an alternative doctor solved a problem that mainstream medicine
couldn’t handle in nine years and for thousands of dollars. The fact is that it costs the typical diabetic
around $10,000 a year for treatment. Conventional medicine soaked this woman for maybe
$90,000 to treat a medical problem that plant remedies cured in no time at all!
A standard diabetes test showed June went from severely diabetic to healthy in the course of the
treatment. But this diabetes breakthrough almost didn’t happen.
Believe it or not, Jon Barron, the acclaimed researcher who found this remedy, wanted nothing to
do with creating a diabetes treatment. He thought it would be a mistake to use herbs and nutrients to
manage the symptoms of diabetes rather than addressing the root cause––mainly the way we eat.
40 Percent of Americans At Risk
Visit us online at www.HSIBaltimore.com 8
11 Medical Breakthroughs:11 Medical Breakthroughs 9/26/08 10:21 AM Page 8
What changed Jon’s mind was the galloping diabetes epidemic all around us. Nearly 20 million
Americans already have full-blown diabetes, and up to 40 percent of the rest of us are pre-diabetic.
Diabetes is the No. 6 cause of death in the United States, and it’s destined to move up the charts pretty
quickly, given the way we eat.
It’s hard to believe, but the average American scarfs down 152 pounds of sugar a year. It’s easy to
do, even if you think you’re being careful. For instance, sodas contain as much as a teaspoon of sugar
per ounce. There’s sugar in catsup, salad dressing, “organic” cereals...in practically everything. The key
is to balance your blood sugar now—before you get sick.
We take natural supplements for cholesterol and blood pressure. Isn’t it about time for a natural
solution to diabetes? Jon Barron decided it was...
Seven herbs tackle diabetes seven different ways
We told you we’d tell you about a two-herb combo that packs a punch against diabetes. But it’s
actually much better than that… Jon Barron combined a full 7 diabetes-fighting herbs in one amazing
supplement!
Barron came at his solution from a wholly unique angle. Instead of just following the mainstream
approach, Barron addressed the fact that diabetes was the wrong point of attack. That’s because diabetes
is the symptom of a metabolic problem, not the cause.
So instead of dealing with that end result, Barron developed a formula to help optimize the body’s
ability to metabolize sugar properly. Before formulating his product, Barron analyzed all the studies
and competing claims for natural diabetes treatments and sugar-regulating formulas.
Ayurvedic medicine (the ancient tradition of India), for example, offers 44 different natural remedies
for diabetes. Other traditions offer dozens more. After much study, Barron narrowed the menu down
to six that had the best chance of creating a thorough, root-cause approach to maximizing the body’s
ability to metabolize sugar.
Then, on the heels of a new discovery, he added the seventh potent ingredient to come up with the
ideal sugar metabolic enhancement formula. You may have heard of the first two ingredients below
from other sources, but you probably can’t name the other five…and that’s where Barron’s unique
research expertise comes in.
The first ingredient is fenugreek. In a recent study, researchers saw a 54% drop in urinary glucose
levels—the test doctors often use to identify diabetics. But to get the most benefit, patients had to eat a
huge amount of fenugreek––a pretty unpleasant undertaking. The stuff tastes terrible (it’s extremely
bitter), and comes with some pretty unpleasant side effects (like foul-smelling sweat and urine) when
you eat a lot of it.
Now a new extract concentrates the active ingredient in fenugreek, making much smaller doses
possible and getting rid of those smelly side effects. In India they call gymnema sylvestre, a traditional
Ayurvedic diabetes remedy, “the sugar destroyer.” Here’s why: A protein in the plant makes you lose
your craving for sugar and may actually prevent you from digesting some of the sugar you DO eat.
Plus, gymnema seems to regenerate pancreas cells, allowing your body to produce more insulin. In
Visit us online at www.HSIBaltimore.com 9
11 Medical Breakthroughs:11 Medical Breakthroughs 9/26/08 10:21 AM Page 9
an 18-month gymnema study, most test subjects were able to reduce their medication… and some were
able to get rid of drugs altogether. Best of all, no one has reported any adverse side effects of gymnema.
Not one.
Konjac mannan is a potent herb you’ve probably never heard of, but it’s been proven effective in
clinical trials. In fact, in a 65-day trial, 72 patients with adult-onset diabetes who took konjac saw their
fasting blood sugar levels drop an average of 51.8 percent and their levels after eating drop 84.6 percent!
The nopal cactus (a.k.a. the prickly pear cactus) is just gaining recognition in the natural medicine
world. There’s not a lot of clinical research into its medicinal benefits yet, but several small studies suggest
that eating nopal leaves with a meal can help contain —even reduce — serum glucose levels.
Individuals with type 2 diabetes have experienced a 10 to 20 percent reduction in blood sugar levels
after eating nopal.
Banaba leaf extract has been shown to lower blood sugar levels in people with Type 2 diabetes by
up to 30%. It also helped the people in the trial keep tighter control over glucose fluctuations. Best of
all, banaba appears to encourage weight loss…without any major dietary changes.
Bitter melon contains at least three components that act on blood sugar – and clinical trials confirm
its effectiveness for managing glucose levels.
The final ingredient is a patented cinnamon extract called Cinnulin PF™ which ramps up the
overall effectiveness of the supplement. In fact, Cinnulin PF actually works to make the insulin receptor
sites on your individual body cells more receptive…and that means your body can use its own
insulin more efficiently.
Barron put all these ingredients together into a highly beneficial supplement he called Glucotor™
v.2. Here are just some of the astounding results seen in six-week Phase I Clinical Trials conducted
using this formula:

Blood sugar levels dropped by an average 54.4 points

An average 52% improvement in blood sugar utilization and optimization, meaning that
participants’ bodies learned to handle sugar more efficiently

Improved carbohydrate metabolism (meaning that patients’ metabolic systems handled
dietary carbs more effectively) by an average 39%

An average weight loss of 5.5 pounds
This sugar metabolic enhancement formula, which can help control diabetes from the right angle,
is just one great example of how members benefit from being part of the Health Sciences Institute
(HSI) network. Thanks to our inside, confidential sources, we were able to follow the development and
testing process and bring this breakthrough to our members as soon as it became available.
To learn more about Glucotor™v.2, go to the Product Source Directory at the end of this report.
A word of caution: If you’re on prescription medications—and even if you aren’t—you need the guidance
of a qualified health professional before you try this (or any) remedy.

SECRET #5
The Return of Polio?
Vaccine programs introduced over 50 years ago caused many of us to incubate mutant
viruses—including a form of polio for which there is no known cure!
Contrary to what you’ve been told, our war with this powerful virus is far from over.
The polio vaccine may have “conquered” polio strains 1 – 3…but we’ve since identified 69 more strains
of polio. Some cripple…some kill…some merely cause flu-like symptoms and then remain in the body
for years…to re-emerge 20 or 30 years later in the form of a mysterious Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.
And the polio vaccine itself will help these 69 strains spread even faster!
A biological nightmare
In fact, thanks to the live polio vaccine, we’re about to face an onslaught of bizarre and threatening
diseases. One frightening example is the “mysterious” disease known as Guillain-Barre Syndrom (GBS).
After the introduction of the oral polio vaccine (OPV) in China in 1971, the incidence of polio
fell…to be replaced right away by a sharp rise in the cases of GBS.
Researchers from the Second Hospital of Hebel Medical College in China reported that “the widespread
use of the OPV may have led to…a change in the main epidemic of the polio virus,” and that
“the polio virus is an agent in cases diagnosed as Guillain-Barre Syndrome.”1
In other words, instead of wiping out polio…the polio vaccine simply suppressed it in favor of one
of its cousins…another paralyzing virus for which there is no known cure!
And this is just the beginning. Countless more mutations have yet to be discovered.
Is it just chronic fatigue…or the Post-Polio Syndrome?
You…or your children…may have been infected with polio, without knowing it.
Only 10% of all children infected with polio actually contract the virus. The other 90% experience
nothing more than a headache…a fever… mild aches and pains.
But the virus never “goes away.” It simply sits in the body, travels through the bloodstream…and,
according to some scientists, resurfaces 20 – 30 years later in the form of Post-Polio Syndrome…otherwise
known as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome (CFS).
The first international scientific conference on the Post-Polio Syndrome, recorded in the Annals of
the New York Academy of Science, documents the research of 118 specialists, including 6 who have shown
that the virus that causes CFS is genetically related to the virus that causes polio.
In other words, CFS and polio stem from the same family tree of viruses!
Over half a million Americans suffer from CFS, with symptoms that include weakness, pain down
the spine, and other vague, recurring illnesses such as fatigue, allergies and weight loss.
Experts predict Chronic Fatigue Syndrome will be the neurological disease of this century.

The Flu Shot Hoax
What do health care workers know that you don’t?
Ladies and gentlemen, here they are, your 2008-2009 flu vaccines! Afluria, Fluarix, FluLaval,
FluMist, Fluvirin, Fluzone… And these aren’t just some mix of tired old virus strains with maybe one
new strain thrown in. These contain three brand new, never-before-used strains.
That’s right––we’re starting from scratch! (Why? Because last season’s strains were a bust at doing
the thing they were supposed to do…prevent flu). And all would be right with the world if not for an
annoying new study the FDA and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention would probably
rather you not know about.
Mixed signals
“In seniors, flu vaccine was not linked to a reduced risk of pneumonia.” That’s what Michael L.
Jackson, lead author of the new study, told HealthDay News. And needless to say, that’s not the sort of
thing FDA and CDC officials want to hear just as they’re gearing up their seasonal fear-promotion of
the flu shot.
Mr. Jackson’s study shows that any benefit seniors do get from the flu vaccine is most prevalent in
younger, healthier seniors. In other words, those who naturally have healthier immune systems are less
likely to get the flu. So, is the flu shot actually preventing infection, or would it have been prevented
anyway?
Ready for the kicker? Mr. Jackson reports that in his three-year study, which included more than
1,170 subjects over the age of 65, the flu vaccine reduced pneumonia risk by a “nonsignificant” 8 percent
during flu season, but was linked to an INCREASED risk of 4 percent during seasonal peaks.
Now if 8 percent is nonsignificant, then 4 percent is even less significant. But when you're expecting
the vaccine to offer protection and the opposite turns out to be true, that seems sort of, you know,
significant! Should seniors still get the vaccine? Mr. Jackson says…YES! Even though he admits: “Earlier
studies have overestimated how well the vaccine works in reducing complications of influenza.”
What do they know that we don’t know?
The FDA announcement about the 08-09 vaccines contains a surprising detail: Only 40 percent of
health care workers in the U.S. get a flu vaccine each year.
Imagine. These are people who have easy access to flu shots. They don’t have to call and make an
appointment and then drive to their doctor’s office. And it’s probably available to most of them for
free. And yet six out of 10 say no.

So if the vaccine were truly effective, don’t you think all those nurses and doctors and EMS personnel
would happily take advantage of this easily accessible protection? And yet they don’t. Makes you
wonder what they know that we don’t know.
Maybe they simply practice healthy habits that keep immune systems strong, which is the most
logical way to avoid the flu and other viruses. You can find useful tips for strengthening your immune
system in the e-Alert “Trying to Reason With Flu Season” (3/13/08).

SECRET #7
The single-ingredient formula rivaling a major class of blood pressure drugs
But it’s more than a little fishy…
In many cases, you can control your blood pressure with some simple diet and lifestyle changes.
But unfortunately sometimes drugs are necessary. Necessary because some cases of dangerously high
blood pressure stay that way no matter what you do to try to lower them.
And unfortunately because the only drugs that seem to work come with a nasty list of side effects.
So we always keep an eye out for natural hypertension alternatives for those of you who need that
helping hand. The latest one to cross our desks is called Vasotensin, a product formulated from a single
ingredient that appears to rival one of the leading classes of hypertension drugs—but without the
potential risks.
Japanese fish alleviates hypertension
Vasotensin is made from a substance called bonito peptides. That’s it—one ingredient. But the
manufacturer, Metagenics, claims that bonito peptides have been shown to have such significant effectiveness
as a single ingredient that there’s no need to add any others.
So what exactly are bonito peptides? Well, in general, peptides are short chains of amino acids.
Specifically, bonito peptides are amino acid chains isolated and extracted from the bonito fish, which is
a member of the tuna and mackerel family.
Bonito peptides have been shown to inhibit Angiotension Converting Enzyme (ACE) activity. ACE
spurs the formation of angiotensin II—a potent compound responsible for blood vessel constriction.
ACE also has a negative effect on a substance called kinin, which lowers blood pressure by relaxing
blood vessels. So, in other words, bonito peptides seem to slow down the process responsible for high
blood pressure.1
But we almost never heard about it. It turns out that this discovery was a case of one man’s (well, in
this case, one industry’s) trash being another’s treasure.
Fish food finds its way to the research lab
They type of bonito peptides used in Vasotensin are actually a by-product of the Katsubushi manufacturing
process. Katsuobushi is a traditional Japanese seasoning that has been used in soups and other
Visit us online at www.HSIBaltimore.com 13
11 Medical Breakthroughs:11 Medical Breakthroughs 9/26/08 10:21 AM Page 13
dishes for over 1,500 years, and it’s made from the flesh of the bonito fish.
To get a better understanding of how the Katsuobushi industry is connected to Vasotensin, it helps
to know a bit about how Katsuobushi is processed. The Reader’s Digest version goes something like this:
The fish meat is heat-treated in water and stirred. The result is the seasoning and the remaining residue.
Yet it is from this residue (typically discarded or used as organic fertilizer) we get this promising
compound––because one creative (and curious) researcher, Dr. Masaaki Yoshikawa of Kyoto University,
decided to take another look at its potential. He discovered that this part of the bonito fish’s muscle
has strong ACE-inhibiting properties.
Apparently, through careful purification and separation, nine active bonito peptides have been
identified and sequenced. But you can’t get the anti-hypertensive response by simply eating the eating
the bonito fish itself or by eating Katsuobushi. As Dr. Yoshikawa’s research uncovered, there are actually
nine specific active peptides that contribute to bonitos’ ACE-inhibiting effects.
The research HSI found focused on two of them, one called LKPNM and one called LKP. On its
own, LKPNM only slightly inhibits ACE. But when ACE interacts with LKPNM it gets is converted
into the peptide LKP, ACE-inhibitory activity of LKP is eight times higher than LKPNM. This unique
property gives it a longer sustainable effect––accidentally skipping a dose would not produce a quick
spike of blood pressure.
But in order to be “activated”, these peptides are dependent on specific enzymatic reactions. The
problem is, our bodies don’t produce the right enzymes to separate the active parts from the rest of the
fish, so the only way to get those blood pressure lowering benefits from the bonito peptides is to have
them separated from the fish for you. In other words, you need to take a supplement like Vasotensin to
get the ACE-inhibiting effect.
Limited—but promising—results
In a human study out of Japan researchers tested the antihypertensive effects of bonito peptides
against a placebo in 61 borderline and mildly hypertensive subjects for 10 weeks. For the first half of
the trial, 31 subjects (group 1) took 1.5 grams per day of a bonito peptide mixture. The other 30 subjects
(group 2) received a placebo. In the second five-week period, the order was reversed: Group 1
subjects took the placebo and group 2 subjects received the bonito peptide mixture. During both phases,
the placebo group failed to show any significant decrease in blood pressure.
And researchers reported that the anti-hypertensive activity was demonstrated without any side
effects.2 We also managed to get our hands on a study that showed how bonito peptides stack up to
mainstream hypertension drugs. In this study, researchers examined the anti-hypertensive activity of
LKP, LKPNM, and Captopril (a common prescription ACE-inhibitor) in rats.
The group fed LKP showed an immediate response, but the blood pressure started to go back up
after two hours. But in the group fed LKPNM, the anti-hypertensive effect was almost the same as
Captopril. And the effects lasted over six hours.3
The bottom line on Vasotensin is it has potential. Even though the majority of testing seems to
have been done by the manufacturing lab in small, short-term studies, all results were positive and

11 Medical Breakthroughs:11 Medical Breakthroughs 9/26/08 10:21 AM Page 14
showed no bad reactions. Of course, you should keep in mind that it is an ACE-inhibitor, and with
these types of products there is always a possibility of potassium buildup and kidney problems.
So even though Vasotensin is a natural ACE-inhibitor, you still need to work closely with your doctor
to regularly monitor your potassium and blood pressure levels, as well as your kidney function. The
dosage recommendation is two tablets twice daily with meals. See the Product Source Directory at the
end of this report for ordering information.

SECRET #8
Stop cancer in its tracks with killer grapefruit
An 86% cure rate for hopeless cancer patients
Years ago, HSI published information on MCP’s unique ability to stop cancer cells from spreading
––or metastasizing––to other parts of the body. But, like many of the products and therapies we cover
in our Members Alert reports, at the time, MCP was showing exciting enough results for us to want to
bring it to our members right away, but it was also still too new to have much research behind it.
Now, though, there’s new research emerging on MCP, confirming its anti-cancer abilities––and
shedding some light on just how it achieves these effects. It turns out it’s another example of glycobiology,
the revolutionary new research field. And this real-life application of that cutting-edge theory is
already demonstrating significant results in animal and human trials, against some of the most common––
and deadly––kinds of cancer, like prostate, breast, colon, and lung.
Targeting cancer’s “getaway car”
MCP comes from pulp and rinds of citrus fruits, like oranges and grapefruits, that have been modified
so that they produce shorter sugar chains. These shorter sugar chains are more readily absorbed
through the intestinal tract into the bloodstream, where they can do some pretty amazing things––
particularly against cancer cells.
Sugar chains, or glycans, are critical to cellular communications. They bind to molecules on cell
surfaces called carbohydrate-binding proteins (CBPs) or lectins and pass along all sorts of information.
In this case, the sugar chains in MCP seem to target one very specific lectin called galectin-3 that plays
an important role in cancer development. Studies have repeatedly shown elevated levels of galetin-3 in
cancerous tissues as compared to healthy tissues.
The galectin-3/cancer link has been found in many forms of cancer, including thyroid cancer, gastric
cancer, pituitary cancer, breast cancer, and colorectal cancer.1-6 Galectin-3 plays a role in a variety of biological
functions related to cancer, including tumor cell adhesion, angiogenesis, apoptosis, and metastasis.7
Scientists think that galectin-3 accomplishes all of this in two different ways, each utilizing one end
of its protein molecule structure. One end, called the C-terminal end, binds carbohydrate molecules on
Visit us online at www.HSIBaltimore.com 15
11 Medical Breakthroughs:11 Medical Breakthroughs 9/26/08 10:21 AM Page 15
other cells, allowing cancer cells to adhere to each other and to healthy cells. This process allows cancer
to spread, or metastasize.
The opposite end of the galectin-3 molecules is called the N-terminal. When a specific amino acid
called serine binds to the galectin-3 molecule in a certain position on the N-terminal end, it triggers a
series of biochemical reactions that protect the cancer cell from death, or apoptosis.
Scientists believe this is a two-pronged defense: The galectin-3 kills off immune system cells that
are attempting to attack the cancer cells, and it also forms a protective barrier around the cancer cells,
shielding them from the effects of anti-cancer drugs and treatments like chemotherapy or radiation.8,9
MCP clogs the cancer-growth pipeline
So what does all of this have to do with some grapefruit pulp? MCP’s sugar molecules block the
protein’s ability to bind to carbohydrates on other cancer cells and on healthy tissues by binding to the
galectin-3 carbohydrate receptor sites at the C-terminal end themselves. With their binding sites all
clogged up, cancer cells can’t clump together and can’t metastasize by adhering to other areas. It’s a perfect
example of the sugar chain anti-adhesive properties.
But some scientists think there may be even more to MCP’s effects on cancer cells. I spoke with
Stephen Strum, M.D., a medical oncologist and researcher who co-authored a study on the effects of
MCP on galectin-3. He suggests that “parking” MCP sugar chains in galectin-3’s C-terminal may also
turn off its N-terminal protective response, making cancer cells even more vulnerable.
Dr. Strum explained the theory this way: Imagine galectin-3 molecule’s two terminals are like a seesaw.
When one end is up, the other end is down; when one end is activated, the other is turned off.
That would mean that when MCP’s sugar chains bind at the C-terminal end, the protective effect the
galectin-3 affords the cancer cell at the N-terminal end would be turned off. More research is needed
to validate this theory, but it highlights another exciting area of research into galactin-3 and the potential
of MCP against cancer.
Slow tumor growth––even kill cancer cells
While we may need more data to validate the seesaw theory, there is plenty of research demonstrating
MCP’s ability to halt or slow cancer development. There have been several significant animal and
laboratory studies demonstrating MCP’s potential to stop or slow metastases and even kill cancer cells.
In one study, mice were fed MCP in their drinking water and then injected with human breast
cancer cells or human colon cancer cells. In all cases, MCP effectively inhibited tumor growth, spontaneous
metastasis and angiogenesis, the process by which cells develop new blood vessels. In the breast
cancer portion of the study, the tumor volume in mice treated with MCP was less than 1/3 of that of
untreated mice. And none of the MCP treated mice developed lung metastases, while 66 percent of the
untreated mice had tumors on their lungs at the end of the study.
The researchers found similar results in the mice injected with colon cancer cells. The primary tumors
of MCP treated mice were half the size of those in untreated mice. All of the untreated mice developed
metastases in the lymph nodes, and 60 percent developed metastases in the liver. But only 25 percent of
the MCP treated mice developed cancer in the lymph nodes and none showed signs of cancer in the liver.10
Visit us online at www.HSIBaltimore.com 16
11 Medical Breakthroughs:11 Medical Breakthroughs 9/26/08 10:21 AM Page 16
As far back as 1995, scientists saw similar results in rats injected with human prostate cancer cells
and treated with MCP. Nearly all of the untreated rats (15 out of 16) developed lung metastases in 30
days, while only 50 percent of the MCP treated rats (seven out of 14) developed lung metastases. More
than half of the untreated rats also developed lymph node tumors, while only 13 percent of the MCP
treated rats had metastases in the lymph nodes.11
Effective cancer therapy with no serious side effects
It’s an impressive body of evidence. The results seen in these studies rival the effects of many prescription
cancer drugs. But what makes MCP even better is that it doesn’t appear to have any dangerous
side effects or interactions. Fewer than 5 percent of people who take MCP report some flatulence
or loose stools, due to its soluble fiber content. This can usually be managed by reducing the dose and
slowly working back up to the recommended level. But compared to the toxic side effects of most conventional
cancer treatments, these problems are very minor.
Again, it’s important to use modified citrus pectin (MCP)––not just regular citrus pectin––to
obtain these results; studies have shown that only MCP has the ability to inhibit cancer cell adhesion
and impact galectin-3 activity.12 In fact, nearly all of the research on MCP’s effects has been conducted
with the same formula.
It’s called PectaSol, and it’s manufactured by EcoNugenics of Santa Rosa, California. PectaSol was
developed by Isaac Eliaz, M.D., M.S.. It’s identical to the MCP used in many of the studies cited
above. PectaSol is available in capsules or in powder form; according to Dr. Eliaz, most people prefer
the powder form because the recommended daily dosage is quite high. To achieve the recommended
dose of 14.4 g per day you’d have to take six capsules three times a day. You can achieve the same
dosage by dissolving 5 grams of powder in water or juice three times a day.
If you’re fighting cancer, talk to your doctor about adding modified citrus pectin to your treatment
plan. It may help your body respond better to the treatments you’re already undergoing. Or it may just
give your body the extra boost it needs to help fight the disease on its own. Either way, it’s a valuable
addition to any anti-cancer arsenal. For product ordering information see the Product Source Directory

Placebo Pills: More Than Just Sugar
The importance of being inert
After more than four decades of testing in tandem with other drugs, placebo gained approval for
prescription use from the Food and Drug Administration Monday.
“For years, scientists have been aware of the effectiveness of placebo in treating a surprisingly wide
range of conditions,” said Dr. Jonathan Bergen of the FDA’s Center for Drug Evaluation and Research.
“It was time to provide doctors with this often highly effective option.”
Visit us online at www.HSIBaltimore.com 17
11 Medical Breakthroughs:11 Medical Breakthroughs 9/26/08 10:21 AM Page 17
Those two paragraphs are the opening of a satirical report fabricated by the staff of The Onion, a
humorous “news” website. (For the entire spoof, see the HSI e-alert “Wonder Drug” from 10/23/04 at
www.hsibaltimore.com.) The sly joke here, of course, is that placebos used in clinical trials are completely
inert — just “sugar pills.”
Right?
Most people would never think to question the contents of a placebo. After all, everyone knows
that placebos have no active ingredients. But if a placebo could talk, it would respond just like any con
man caught with his hand in your pocket: “Who ME? Would I lie to you?”
Sugar coating
There was a time when doctors sometimes prescribed phony medication to their patients who they
regarded as hypochondriacs. They called the pills “placebo” (a Latin word meaning “I shall please”),
and when the patients reported positive results the concept of the placebo effect was born.
These days, placebo pills are used in clinical trials to measure the true effect of a drug or supplement.
They are thought to be made of inert substances designed to have no effect. But consider this:
there’s no such thing really as an inert substance.
For instance, placebo pills are commonly called sugar pills. But is sugar inert? Far from it, of
course. If you take a sugar pill, your body will have a reaction, especially if you happen to have an
insulin disorder. But if you’re given that same pill as part of a drug research trial, your reaction
becomes a factor in the research.
That may seem like nothing (what real difference could a tiny boost of sugar make?), but a little
sugar is not the issue here. Far from it.
A dirty little secret
When a pharmaceutical company tests a product in a placebo-controlled trial, where do you suppose
they get placebo pills? Do they place an order with a placebo pill manufacturer? Or does Nestle’s
candy company run a side business that supplies researchers with sugar pills?
The fact is, drug companies make their own placebo pills for research purposes, and for each individual
study they create a unique placebo formula — sometimes including ingredients that match
ingredients in the drugs being tested. But the contents of placebos are never revealed.
Does that sound “inert” or “inactive” to you? Suddenly the idea of a “sugar pill” doesn't seem so
innocent anymore.
Before conducting human trials for drugs, pharmaceutical companies are often fully aware of many
of the side effects of the products they’re testing. So, for instance, if a drug is known to cause dizziness
and nausea, the drug company running the test may want the placebo to have the same side effects.
And they have an explanation for this. They say the placebo should mimic the drug being tested so
that the control group of the experiment will have side effects similar to the placebo group. Without
that, they claim, the results of a blind study would be compromised.
Visit us online at www.HSIBaltimore.com 18
11 Medical Breakthroughs:11 Medical Breakthroughs 9/26/08 10:21 AM Page 18
There are plenty of gray areas to debate in that logic, but for the moment let’s focus on the idea of
what they call an “active placebo,” designed to mimic the side effects of a tested drug. And with that in
mind let’s look at an advertising campaign for a popular allergy medication. In the TV ads, when the
moment arrives to list the side effects, the voice-over says, “The most common side effects — including
headache, drowsiness, fatigue and dry mouth — occurred about as often as they did with a sugar pill.”
A sugar pill? Really? Just what kind of “sugar pill” were the researchers using that caused headache,
drowsiness, fatigue and dry mouth? Sounds like a sugar pill with a little something added. But they
want you to believe that this medication will produce side effects no more serious than what you’d get
with a TicTac.
Inertia standardized
Dr. Beatrice Golomb, MD, PhD, is an assistant professor of medicine at the University of
California, San Diego, and has been actively fighting the research establishment's claim that placebos
are inactive substances. Dr. Golomb wants scientists to provide a list of placebo ingredients so trial
results can be properly evaluated.
To level the playing field, Dr. Golomb suggests that drug companies start divulging all placebo
ingredients. She also recommends that standardized placebos should be developed so that side effects
will be uniform and predictable. This would go a long way toward eliminating the pharmaceutical
industry's cynical manipulation of test data.
As you might suspect, the drug companies are not very receptive to Dr. Golomb's idea of letting go
of this aspect of product testing that they have full control over.
Meanwhile, what about physicians and researchers who work independently from the pharmaceutical
giants—do they know the truth about placebos supplied by drug companies? Right now it’s hard to tell
just how widespread this knowledge is. According to the National Center for Complementary and
Alternative Medicine at the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the placebo effect is defined as “desirable
physiological or psychological effects attributable to the use of inert medications.” From that statement it
would appear that the NIH either believes that placebos are genuinely inactive, or they’re not saying.
Or maybe they’re just feeling drowsy, dizzy, irritable and nauseous from a sugar pill someone gave them.

Rub out your pain on contact
Finally, freedom from the pain cycle
Arthritis...backache…sore muscles…aching joints…sprains…strains. As we get older, it seems as if
pain becomes a constant companion. Just getting out of a chair can become challenging, let alone
enjoying simple pleasures like gardening and strolling through the park.
Taking aspirin helps, but it can eventually tear up your stomach. And prescription drugs have side
effects that only compound the underlying problem. About 50 percent of the population is suffering
Visit us online at www.HSIBaltimore.com 19
11 Medical Breakthroughs:11 Medical Breakthroughs 9/26/08 10:21 AM Page 19
from occasional aches and pain.1
Most medical schools don’t teach pain relief
Mainstream medicine is finally becoming aware of the need to relieve pain. Hospitals now have
pain-management teams. Palliative care—a relatively new medical specialty—was developed to address
pain relief. Pain centers are also opening across the country as more and more people look for relief.
But they all concentrate on mainstream “cures”— drugs and surgery, which are rife with uncomfortable
and even life-threatening side effects.
Unfortunately, doctors aren’t receiving much training in medical school about pain intervention.
According to a survey of oncology surgeons, 90 percent of respondents said they received 10 hours or
less of medical-school education on palliative care and 79 percent said they received no more than 10
hours of instruction in palliative care during their surgical residency.2
Healed injuries can continue to flare up over time
Effective pain management is a complex issue, because your body responds with all its defenses to
protect and heal an injury. When you injure yourself, your body sends protective fluids, such as histamine,
bradykinin, prostaglandin, and substance P, to surround and heal the area. But they can also irritate
the injury over time.
Another problem associated with pain is referred to as the “snowball effect.” This is the result of
pain caused by injury and inflammation, which in turn causes distress and, as a result, continued pain
and inflammation. This cyclic pattern snowballs and results in discomfort even after the original injury
has been healed. While you may have done everything possible to heal an injury for good, that doesn’t
mean the hurt will leave once your injury has healed. Most people can relate to occasional flare ups
from past injuries, or subsequent pulled muscles or aching backs that come from trying to compensate
for the original injury.
Putting a stop to the pain cycle
Finding a way to stop the pain cycle has been a goal of Health Sciences Institute panelist Jon
Barron. Recently, he teamed up with Ron Manwarren of Royal Botanicals in the development of a
unique topical pain reliever that is safe and completely free of the side effects of dangerous pharmaceutical
pain killers.
While Barron was refining an all-natural transport system that would send herbal extracts through
the skin, Manwarren had just finished formulating a healing oil based on traditional herbs— but
lacked a botanical-based foundation to transport it. When Manwarren brought his new formula to
Barron, their combined efforts resulted in a formula available in a product called Soothanol X2.
While over-the-counter topical products commonly contain one, two, or three painrelieving substances,
such as methyl salicylate, menthol, and camphor, Soothanol X2 has 10 proven painkillers.
Because Soothanol X2 is an easyspreading and potent liquid, only a few drops are needed. Soothing
pain relief is delivered on contact.
In fact, we tested it informally here at the Health Sciences Institute Baltimore office. The scented

11 Medical Breakthroughs:11 Medical Breakthroughs 9/26/08 10:21 AM Page 20
ingredients in Soothanol X2 are mild—contrary to the overpowering smells of most over-the-counter
products. Although cayenne can deliver a warming or hot sensation, much of that sensation depends
on the type of injury you’re treating and your sensitivity to cayenne. Of the five people who tested our
sample bottle here in the office, one commented that he felt an uncomfortable amount of heat.

world, in HSI Members Alerts.
Being first to these lifesaving new cures isn’t a luxury anymore. The day has long passed when just
listening to your doctor can keep you alive. He’s utterly swamped, the health world’s too big, there’s
too much happening in natural medicine—and there’s way too much drug company money corrupting
the system.

When the FDA asks its own scientists to lie…
The Union of Concerned Scientists (UCS) recently released results of a survey filled out by nearly
1,000 scientists who work for the FDA… About 20% of them said they had been “asked explicitly by
FDA decision makers to provide incomplete, inaccurate or misleading information…”
And if 200 FDA scientists admit it, imagine how many didn’t dare confess! It’s just one more sign
that…
The great ship of mainstream medicine is RIDDLED WITH ROT AND SINKING…
You’ve got to find your own lifeboat, and there’s only one way to make sure you’re FIRST in line…
FIRST with the inside word on the safe, new natural medicines that could save you from painful death

“Cancerwas killingme, butwithHSI’s helpNOW
THEY CALLME THEMIRACLEMAN!”
Dear Friend:
I was the worse case of leukemia the Mayo Clinic had seen in 20
years. My whole immune system had shut down. My left leg turned black. I went
through chemotherapy and whatever else they gave me, but nothing worked very well.
My blood counts were very bad and I went home weighing 80 pounds less.
I needed a miracle. And that’s when one really
happened...
A booklet arrived in the mail from HEALTH SCIENCES INSTITUTE.
As soon as I took the treatment HSI told me about, my blood counts started improving!
I got better and better. Gained back the 80 pounds I lost and then some. I
felt great.
My oncologist at the Mayo Clinic could hardly believe what he saw.
Right then and there they started calling me THE MIRACLE MAN. It was 5 years ago
and I’m still cancer-free.
Sincerely,
Lee Bowden, Vero Beach, Florida
