FASTING RESOLVES ASTHMA, SUFFERED SINCE CHILDHOOD!

[NOTE: Nothing in Life gives more pleasure to the human mind and heart than helping end the unnecessary suffering of others. For the countless millions on Earth (14.6 million in the U.S., alone, 5 million of those children) who today suffer the respiratory problem called asthma--chained, often for decades, to oral and/or inhaled daily medications--the following story of release from that lifetime of misery should offer hope to others. The following California client suffered all this and more, for so long that it seemed the only way he could ever live. Fortunately, by joining the majority of FCI clients who today do our patented and most-popular Total Detoxification Program (one's chronological-age number + 17 in number of actual juice-fasting days, plus 5 transitioning days on each end to intelligently enter, and then skillfully break one's fast), this young father has regained more of himself than he ever imagined possible, as he testifies here three months after completing his FCI Program.]

     "When I approached FCI at age 35, I weighed 255 lbs. (on a 6-foot frame), smoked a pack of cigarettes a day, and drank a little less than a six-pack of beer daily. My general health was awful, with my blood pressure 161 over 88. I'd also suffered asthma since childhood, for which I'd always taken oral medications, plus inhaled bronchodilators (to relieve spasm and exercise-triggered wheezing). As I could hardly breathe without medication, my exercise program was non-existent, to the point where a simple walk up a hill left me feeling close to cardiac arrest. I was just a walking dead person, without any ambition, drive, energy or vitality at all--a prime candidate for a heart attack at a very early age. And my diet was awful; all I would eat was red meat, potatoes and junk food, at all hours.

     "All that began to change as soon as I began my Transitioning-In Program at FCI. I immediately quit smoking, drinking and all my bad habits, starting on T1 (transition day one). By T5, I had started to feel much better, physically, even though a one-mile uphill walk wasn't easy, with my weight and asthma. By F1 (fasting day one), I started to feel that I had more energy, plus more wind.

     "By F10: ENERGY!! Also, I noticed that my thought processes were becoming much clearer, and my emotions more manageable--not so many peaks and valleys. As for my 'physical' and 'mental' reactions, since beginning my Total Detoxification Program, I never experienced any hunger pangs, nicotene fits or urges to drink, and a lot of 'attitude' was being discarded (accumulated over decades from all the bullshit come-on's the Media bombards us all with every day--'Take this for this, that for that, etc.'. . .a very crazy cycle I'd been long caught up in). Thus, because of the improvement in my breathing, I quit taking my asthma medicine and stopped using my inhaler, amazed to find I no longer needed either. As for my weight, it had started to drop drastically since T3.

     "By F20: ENERGY!! I'd lost over 40 lbs., and my one-mile uphill walk, every day, was getting much easier.

     "By F30: ENERGY!! I started to feel really good--the best I'd ever felt in my entire life. . .physically, mentally and spiritually. During my first 35 years of life, I'd hardly had a spiritual thought. But that whole area of my being just opened up during my 62-day Program, so much so that I'm now a deeply spiritual person. So, just for that, Dennis, I can't thank you/FCI enough.

     "By F40: ENERGY!! With my weight already down 55 lbs., I had a whole new zest for life. My daily one-mile uphill walks were now very brisk, and no one could believe it was me. My wife thought she was having an affair!

     "F52: By the end of my fast, I'd lost 70 lbs, felt great, and had no need of medications of any kind. The transition back into solid foods was slow and skillful, and I loved getting back to eating.

     "My Life Now: As a result of my loss of 70 lbs., plus quitting smoking and drinking--with no cravings now for either--I'm feeling better than I have in my whole life! Therefore, I have no intention of going back into my old routines. Here are all the pluses: current weight (3 months since finishing my FCI Program), 185 lbs.; blood pressure, 117 over 75. I now work out 5 days a week. And, remember that hill? I now run up it. I am five times more effective at work, a more attentive father and husband, and believe I've added 70+ years to my life, as I now plan to live to be at least 105 (our third child is due soon). I can't believe how deep I've become, just as I can't believe how much control I now have to achieve what I really want, plus the follow-through to actually do it.

     "FCI's Program has also had a remarkable effect on my self-image: I now like myself; don't beat myself up anymore, and when I do find it necessary, I now do it constructively, instead of eating, drinking and smoking. My personal thanks to you, Dennis, for you've literally changed my life, adding to it 100%. To recap the changes from my 62-day Total Detoxification Program:

Weight: 255 to 185.
Blood pressure: 161 over 85 to 117 over 75.
Asthma: No more need for lifelong oral medications and inhaled bronchodilators. Why? No more symptoms, plus I can now eat foods I'd been allergic to since childhood.
Exercise: From nothing, pre-fast, to two hours/day, five times/week, today.
Health: I haven't had so much as a sniffle in six months, since approaching FCI.
Spiritual: I didn't even know I had a spiritual side, until now.
Emotional: Now it's much easier to deal with Life's ups and downs.
Family Life: It was great before, but it's exceptional now.
Personal: I feel extremely good about myself, in all categories.
Diet: Thanks to FCI's LIFETIME OPTIMUM HEALTH PLAN, I now know how to eat PROPERLY, regarding both WHAT I eat, as well as HOW to use proper self-control.

"Thank you, Dennis. You/FCI did more for me in two months than I've done for myself in 36 years! Once again, much gratitude. Sincerely, Doug Yorba"
