"The viruses are here to stay," Choua interrupted me. "Unless you decide to cook all the muscle fibers in chronic fatiguers the way your oncologists cook the whole immune system before they try to revive it with their bone marrow transplants, you have to learn to live with viruses."
"How?"
"Somehow!" Choua brushed my question away.
"How, Choua? How? How do people learn to live with viruses?" I moaned.
"By strengthening their own defenses, that's how! Why is that so very difficult for you to understand?"

"Sleep is the biggest immunological defense scheme we've come up with yet, because not only does it defend us against other organisms in our environment, it defends us against starvation by the insulin-melatonin system." - page 56

"The immune system has an enormous task, namely, to provide protection from the damaging effects of pathogenic bacteria, viruses, molds, fungi, and parasites that can lead to illness. The key to good health depends on how well the immune system does its job. When the immune system is strong the body is healthy; when it is weak the body may be sick....With EI and CFS the immune system is not able to perform its protective functions. Strengthening the immune system is what directs the care in these illnesses." - page 9

Barbara Peters (Marshalltown, IA) - January 21, 2002
My name is Barbara Peters. For 35 years, I had a large goiter and for 20 years I have had psoriasis. Also, ten years ago, I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia. I could not move my arms above my head for 7 years. My triglycerides and cholesterol were out of whack. My triglyceride level was 480 and my cholesterol was 300. My blood pressure has been running 180 over 98.
For years, I have felt like an old dishrag, limp and worn out. I also have been on a variety of medications, none of which worked.
For the past ten years, I was extremely depressed, bitter, angry, and felt like I was walking in a fog. I went to my chiropractor for pain management and it was there that I met Tiffany Bizios. She introduced me to JC Tonic. She had much faith in this product, and I could see it in her eyes. At first, I was skeptical of something that could truly help me because, at this point in time, I had given up. It took me a couple of days of prayer before the Lord convinced me to take it. I could not believe the energy I felt after only taking one mono-dose. I did experience a slight headache, but it didn’t discourage me since I hadn’t felt this kind of energy in over ten years. Day by day, I have noticed a change. Before I could only sleep for an hour without pain, and now I can sleep up to seven restful hours.
