Sept, 2005:  Okay, I do not do this type of thing. Some of my closest friends do not know about this juice. This is a personal thing that I really do not preach about. It is kinda like religion or politics, in that everyone has their own personal opinion.

I accept people for who they are and love them for their unique individualities. Now for me, I do not take drugs of the usual sort. I do not take aspirin; I do not take vitamins. (I grew up with a dad who was a chemist and a mother who was a pharmacologist with her MBA – so imagine the life’s pressures on me growing up). Even when I was pregnant – I refused to take any supplements. I am a firm believer that GOD – or whom ever you wish to address this divine entity, has provides us on earth with all that is needed to live a healthy life.

To the complete dismay of the staff at the Mayo Clinic in Rochester MN, when they did a complete blood work up on me, several times now throughout my life, - including with each of my 3 pregnancies, they shook their heads. Dr. Johnson joked with my husband to "cancel the life insurance, she will live forever." My blood is better than 98% of the world average.. That means that there is only 2% of the population out there has better blood and the goodies that are to be in there, in there. I have low blood pressure, low body fat and proper weight. I do have a small frame and am a candidate for osteoporosis as I get older and loose bone density.

So what do I do? I do basically nothing. I avoid fast foods. I can count the number of times I eat out on one hand per year. If I have a headache or stressed, I have a cocktail. I drink coffee every morning, and if I need a pick-me-up in the afternoon I will have a cup of tea or a can of coke (very rarely) and do not really drink any type of sodas -other than as used a mix in drink.  I avoid all things that are diet and rarely eat candy, except when driving long distances to help keep me awake. I will have a glass of red wine at night on a regular basis. I limit micro-wave use and do not have a cell phone.  If I am tired I sleep and get 8 hours of sleep per night. I go to bed at 9 PM-ish and up at 4:30AM-ish. I take naps when I feel like it, eat when I get shaky – then I know I need to eat, or eat when I feel really hungry. (I nibble or graze throughout the day.) I buy and eat organic foods whenever I can. I grow much of our food – from the farm to can or freeze.  I always try new foods and eat everything except liver- just don't really care for that in any form as with very hot jalapeño type stuff. I do not exercise regularly but do keep continually busy moving every day. I use homeopathy cures and believe in hot bathes and soup when under the weather. I love dance and yoga, and believe in massage, and find comfort and peace with my animals. We keep our house at 62 degrees in the winter and do not have air-conditioning. (I believe in making our body work to keep us cool and to stay warm.) Ok… you get the idea, I am a hippie who does not shave, eats organic and who is not into fashion.

So last fall when camping up in the north land of MN for 4 days, I fell – long story, broke 5 ribs –badly actually, and since they healed back fairly crooked. I have three spots of knots where the bones mended to one another fairly well, then another with rib that healed leaving a small dent my sternum and then the really bad rib which was messed up real good, has healed indented around my side. (Cool I think, cause now I have a real dent in my side). Any way, I was not able to able to get up and move around real well. I did ride the following day, but the pain was horrendous and I finally had to fess-up (and tell my stupid story) and ask for some help hanging my hay bag. I had to sleep sitting up and hardly had any breath to speak. Lifting was a bitch too – actually everything was. So when I got home, I was speaking to my friend Mary Curry and she said she was going to send me some juice. "Just drink 2 oz per day" Ok I said, am always game for natural stuff.  4 days later the juice arrived.

Oh my GOD…. 16 hours after I drank the juice, I went from zero ambition, motivation and movement to I was UP, walking around, moving, bending and the pain that I was in, cut in half. (Oh… I did not mention, I do not take painkillers either.) To date all I had taken for my pain was a couple of cocktails at days-end. (I take the position that pain is good, for it will limit your activities - as your body is trying to tell you something - like slow down you have broken bones.) Ok, so now I’m on this stuff. Mary sent me two bottles and I needed more. So I purchased two more. I then read about this juice. Weird stuff, it is just a fruit all mashed up. So I was on the juice – in three weeks I could finally sleep lying down! Then the kids starting taking it. Don was skeptical but I knew what I felt.

Now with three girls in school they do bring home colds. Those that were on the juice including me never caught a cold. Then the girls each noticed different things. Such as more energy and Sonia stopped sneezing with her fall allergies. Don still not really too convinced and me sorta too said,  "what if it is all in my head." Ok… so what if it is?  I feel better, I have more energy and I have - like no pain. If that is in my head I love it! But the true test came when Don took the girls on their yearly ice-fishing trip. By this time all my girls were drinking Xango. They meet up with their pals who shared with them a terrible cold. When they came home my girls were not sick, but Don had it BAD, REAL BAD. Ok… so now he is on the juice. He too noticed a difference, although he is a hard to convince it is real. I don’t ask him much cause he will not admit it, but I know this much, he brings me a shot – one-oz., every morning and he takes one too. (One oz. is just the basic maintenance.)

So what is the downfall? Well years ago I broke my arm- another bad break and horse related. And since I could always tell when the weather was coming in and how fast the front was moving based on the dull ache in my arm. Well as strange as it may seem, I have relied on my arm to tell me the weather. Yes – I look for my body to tell me and I think it is kinda neat. But when I watched the weather on TV they say a front is coming in and I say…"Yea right" I would feel it. WELL NOT… I have tested this now on my own. The Xango Juice does 100% effects your bones or old broken ones that is. It WILL reduce your ache. And if you count on your body as a weather station, as I do you will be hard pressed to feel much of anything. So now I really have to feel and listen to my arm and now ribs. I may have a very slight instant thump but so light I do know if is for real or not. I have not gotten a cold since I started on the juice (to the present time) and neither have my girls when on the juice. (They do their own testing and drink a shot when they want to.) Don is on it and his finger that Joya broke when she stumbled and Don had his hands wrapped in the reins feels better and his finger stopped making snapping sounds as he stretches out his finger. As does the finger he nearly cut off with a circular saw, however it still aches when it gets cold during winter or ice fishing.

So I gave a bottle to my friend Susan Untied for her husband who has a ruptured or some bulging disk that the doctors said he needed surgery on. Jon would go monthly into the chiropractor for a fix. He has NOT been to the chiropractor since he has been on the juice in 7 months! He also had a real bad case of psoriasis that also lessened significantly, that his wife told me about – because she had to vacuum up his flaked off skin from the arm of the chair. She also wrapped his legs with towels soaked in the juice. The next morning his legs were not red and inflamed, but calm and quite. Susan is also on the juice. Her brother died of lung cancer and she suddenly started experiencing some of the same type of pain as he did. She was on the juice heavy – 3 oz per day and her pain has gone away. She then told her friend Diane Olson about it. Diane had irritable bowl syndrome and was on all kinds of drugs for years and still had issues. She took the juice and called Susan, for in 24 hours she was NORMAL. She now gets this juice sent to her regularly too. UPDATE.  Diane has been on the Juice since 12/8/05 and it is now 8/14/06 that is NINE months and she has lost 20 pounds!  She says that she DOES not have her food cravings like she use too and feels great and has become more active.  WOW!

I since have had two friends with cancer. I sent a case to Gladys in Puerto Rico. I have copied our email correspondence.

So Gladys is now promoting this juice. Then my other friend Fritichie who is battling lung cancer has more energy and feels great – could be the medication she is on or the juice or the combination, but she is not changing what she is doing and gets the juice monthly delivered to her home. (She now jokes that she is hanging out the windows cleaning them! )

I gave my brother some juice. He has had his elbow reconstructed due to a skiing accident and lost a huge range of motion and who really feels the aches of it, is feeling better now because he is on the juice.

Ok… These are just my friends who I turned on to this stuff because it helped me and they turn on others because it helped them. That is how this works. I HATE pyramid schemes… but this is the way this stuff is distributed. I know that the FDA in time if they have not already tried to regulate supplements will. This juice is labeled as a dietary supplement.

I will continue to post those results from my direct contacts that have had success. And on a side note, while I was visiting another friend who experiences horrible migraine head-aches, we went to several stores looking for this juice and only found a similar product, so Laura bought it.  It was EXPENSIVE and it tasted like it looked.  Like VOMIT! I have since sent her a bottle of the GOOD stuff.   As I mentioned earlier, the ONLY way to get this stuff is through a sponsor.  This is the way that the Xango company is distributing their product.   No middle men, just ordinary people who believe in the product. 

UPDATE

Well I followed up with my brother.  He did not try the juice right away because he said, "I wanted to be off of my other medication to give the juice a good test".  (Little did I know that he was taking high blood pressure medicine!! - I thought it was anti inflammatory for his bad elbow)  Ok.. So he called me.  He said he was feeling great!  He got back from Colorado snow skiing and just had his Dr. appointment.  The Dr. said "hey the medicine is working your blood pressure is down and your range of motion is great.  Gee how did you do it?"  My brother said it was the fresh air skiing and they laughed!!!  HE DID NOT TELL HIM he was on the juice.  "Why" I asked?   Well that was why my brother called,  He too could not believe it and wanted another bottle to try before saying anything.  The one thing he did say is "that he has been around all these sick - I mean sick people and he has not caught a cold".  I told him that, I told him, that already because I too found that to be true.  He assured me that I did not tell him that and that he discovered that ALL on his own.  So soon my brother will be buying the juice direct, cause I'm done sending him free bottles.  If you have any questions you can call him.  803-643-0345.

I just had a customer call 4/4/06 who read this site and bought a case (after calling the numbers on here) and just ordered more and signed up to distribute this product.  She could not get out of bed from horrible depilating pain.  She can now move and feels great and has lowered her dose down from 3 oz to 2 oz of juice.  Debbie McCaughtry 814-392-5055 or 814-796-6166 Shadow_Facs_Farm@adelphia.net  can share more with you.  The one thing Debbie asked me was for literature.  Now there's a tough one.  Xango does not have literature, but other companies do - companies that do not sell the juice.  Strange and I can only imagine that this has something to do with health claims and the government.   So I ordered some literature and started to really investigate this juice.  (remember - all I know is what is has done for me and my friends.)  This is what I found in a nut shell.

Mangosteen has 24 Xanthones that allow it to be an anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, anti-bacterial.  (been using it for centuries in Southeast Asia)
Mangosteen is beneficial for inflammatory bowel diseases (ulcerative colitis, crohn's disease) and diverticulitis. 
Mangosteen is beneficial for fibromyalgia
Mangosteen is beneficial for type ll diabetes
Mangosteen is beneficial for multiple scerosis
Mangosteen is beneficial for arthritis
Mangosteen is beneficial for asthma
Mangosteen is beneficial for cancer
Mangosteen is beneficial for allergic rhinitis
Mangosteen is beneficial for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease
Mangosteen is beneficial for heart attack and stroke
WHO WOULD OF KNOWN!  I learned something and now I know why my friends who are taking the juice are feeling the way they do!!

4/10/06 My dear friend Eleanor  is a firm believer on eating healthy who has cancer and was testing the juice, has now signed up. 
5/16/06 Don's sister Sandy is giving the juice to her 4 year old son who has a horrible skin condition that makes his hands look like "old man" hands - they are red - tight - shinny and leathery (some type of nasty skin disorder - I don't have the name for).  She has use ALL kinds of expensive lotions and medicines with no avail.  Then after 3 days drinking the juice, Luke's hands are NORMAL.  She would have never believed a JUICE - a NATURAL juice that has NO DRUGS or man made chemicals could do this.  They are now on this juice. 
JUNE 22 2006 ----- Original Message ----To: "Hill View Farms" <hillview@springfield-sanborn.net Sent: Thursday, June 22, 2006 6:55 AM  Subject: Xango, etc. I  LOVE the Xango! I am feeling so much better already. I am down to the 1 ounce a day now but quite honestly I could drink the whole bottle at once! I forgot to take my massive dose of anti-inflammatory medication one day and never realized it until I saw the bottle sitting out on the counter.  Thanks!  Mary
As of  2007,   Both my beloved friends in the far advanced stages of Cancer (had it for 8-10 months before starting the juice) lost their fight with Cancer.  There is a beautiful movie on about cancer that says it all and I wish all of us to live life this way. http://www.thesurvivormovie.com/ I know that the juice helped them both but it the cancer had taken so much of both of their bodies by then, that the juice only bought them some time and quality.  God knows how I loved my dear friends and to them - you rock!- I love you, and I'm still on the juice and feeling no aches!
October 2, 2007 Caught a cold, not a bad one, as it was over in 3 days.  But this was the first time I have been sick since starting the juice in 2005.  I have also noticed that when I travel by plane I can not take the juice with me unless I send it via baggage due to the security concerns with liquids.  I travel by carry on, thus I go without the juice for the time I am gone.  I notice by the time I get home, 3 to 7 days later, my elbow aches.  Thus confirming my bodies need for the wonderful powers that the juice naturally gives.

 Cathy,   I see on your web site  that you sell  Xango.      I too do that,
 but  drink about 6 oz. a day for the Fibro.  Been on it now for 2+ yrs.     Best stuff for the inflammation in me.  I saved one of my PP mares, (18 yro)   from total renal failure due to a vet pounding antibiotics in
 her for a foot infection.  The meds put her kidneys  down.    She spent  a  week in an  ICU  place in Pittsburgh.    They called me to come and get  her,  she was dying there.  Of course the bill  was $4,000 and they sent  her home to die!
 Wouldn't eat etc.   She was home sick for me really and stopped.    Went  and got her.   Came home with  IV units to hang from the rafters,  and a  shunt in her neck for meds.   I  put her on Xango and  baby pablum   mixed  together and syringed it in her mouth.    I used the baby pablum since her  gut had nothing in it for nearly 2 days down in Pgh.    The vet wanted me  to send her to OSU.   Told them no way,  been there and wasn't impressed!  When I took her off my trailer from Pgh,  she looked like Barbaro all
 bandaged up,  but she also peed.    The urine was as dark as tea.... I was ridiculed by the vets in Pgh about the pablum and Xango!    But I  was determined .....

 After  I  gave her the Xango by next AM  her urine had changed in color!  Also, she just stood there after being unloaded with her head hanging  down and drooling.       By end of the first full day home you'd never  believe it was the same horse!    Bright eyes,  ears up... It is a story  that Art Manville has heard and taped from a conference call that airde  all over the USA. A retired doctor who lives next door has Parkinson disease and is 82 yro.  He came to see Tek the day I brought her home.   He is a  horse person  since younger days,  and loves my PP's. He told me later on,  that he didn't have the heart to tell me he thought  she'd  only live about 24 hrs. He was there when I unloaded her.    He came back after the Xango etc,  and couldn't believe his eyes.     He was totally astonished!      He came  right out and asked me what did you do to bring this horse around like  that,   and what are you taking to combat the fibro to accomplish all of  this energy it takes to soak and wrap a foot twice a day?          I  figured being a medical eye surgeon he'd  think I was a real nut case if I  told him it was  the Xango,  but I told him anyhow!      He now takes  6
 ounces a day and has  hardly any symptoms of the Parkinsons  with the head  nodding,  and shuffle gait.    He feels wonderful and tells eveyone else.  He doesn't sell it,  as money is no problem for him and his wife.
 I have been contacted from all over the USA  after doing a conference call  on this story.    Xango is the best stuff in the world.     I  manage the  fibro with it,  and I've had terrible arthritis with the disease now for
 25 yrs.      No  other medications do I take. Just wanted to tell you this in case you get yourself into a situation.  Don't hesitate to use the juice.
 I occasionally give it to our  per goat,  as he is castrated and is 7 yro  now.    Renal failure again,
 due to age and the castration.     Vet  can't believe he is still trucking  along....      Never told him about the Xango. LOL..         He'd  think  my hair was green!    LOL..      Vets....    You gotta love em, huh?
