“Liquid Organic Product“ HAS SAVED MY LIFE!
- Chronic Fatigue Syndrome
- Auto Immune Deficiency
- Fibromyalgia
- Raynaud’s
- Irritable Bowel Syndrome
Here’s my story in short. Before I started taking Body Balance I was on multiple prescription medications for life. I have CFIDS (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome w/Auto Immune Deficiency) , FMS (Fibromyalgia), Raynauds (sensitive to changes in Temperature), IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) and a whole list of other health issues. In 1997 I was in a car accident and needed a knee replacement. I was 35 years young at the time, (I just turned 48 years in Dec 2009). After several knee surgeries I finally got a Total Knee Replacement and thought that was the end of my pain and suffering. I was wrong, that’s when all my problems started. Life changing health issues for LIFE.
I was on many drugs for pain, muscle ache, back spasms, intestinal issues, GERD (acid reflux), sleep issues including napping daily and insomnia at night. . . total exhaustion with extreme fatigue and poor stamina.
I suffered from Chronic : Bronchitis, Sinusitis, Headaches, Ear aches, Sore throats, Asthma, Swollen Parotid Glands/Lymph Nodes, Barking cough. Infections that wouldn’t go away despite the antibiotic regiment, which would include 4 different antibiotics in a row. I also had a fever of Unknown Origin for 3 plus years that baffled all my specialists.
I had been to the best Doctor’s in Boston ~ Infectious Disease Doctor’s, Rheumatology & Autoimmune Disorder Doctor’s, ENT (Ear, Nose & Throat) Specialist’s, Gastroenterologists. Besides my PCP and Orthopedic Surgeon. I tried the Chiropractic method as well, which helped me. My pain got so intense I was on Morphine Patches and was offered Oxycontin to keep the edge off the pain. This would be for LIFE ! The health problems I incurred along the way were not going away and only manifesting. So in all actuality this would be for LIFE ! Daily medications for all my symptoms for LIFE ! That is no way to live your LIFE !
After being on Morphine Patches for a few months I realized that. . . Something has to change! I knew I had to wean myself off the pain medications and just suffer my life away as this was killing me. I decided to STOP going to Regular/Specialists Doctors as they were only giving me the same answers “we can give you medication to help with the symptoms”. My Family and Friends were worried sick and I thought I was going to die.
Through the pain and anguish I had a dear friend tell me about Homeopathy/Holistic way of LIFE which a few of my friends practiced with their families for many years. I just didn’t have an open mind about it and was trying my way first. She explained to me “when your given a Remedy it takes each symptom AWAY for LIFE”. My mind was open to anything at this point. I tried the Holistic Way and was grateful for the information given to me. Then my friend told me about Body Balance and how she thought it would help me with my symptoms. She changed my LIFE! I have been on “Liquid Organic Product” for four months and it has changed my LIFE !
I’m gradually getting my life back, day by day. Many of my symptoms have subsided and I stopped napping. I weaned myself of most of my medications and I’m so excited about this”Liquid Organic Product”. . . it is Liquid Gold. I stopped taking two medications (Prilosec for Gerd/Dicyclomine for Intestinal Spasms) completely. That saves me $50.00 dollars a month for co-pays which I put towards my “Liquid Organic Product”.
I’m now an Independent Distributor for LFI and will pass the words of wisdom that have been passed to me. “Liquid Organic Product” has saved my LIFE !! “ Moral of the story : Listen to your FRIENDS it could save your LIFE ! “

Hi Everyone! Below is Carolyn Schowengerdt’s amazing health story regarding the Life Force’s products!
Carolyn is a great testament to PRODUCT PATIENCE, as you will see some of her health results didn’t manifest until after she had been on the LFI’s products almost a year, but the quality of life she enjoys is more than worth it!
CAROLYN’S STORY
After taking another balanced synthetic vitamin product for 4 and ½ years that had helped me with my fibromyalgia symptoms, I regressed into my fibromyalgia symptoms and developed ulcerative colitis. My gastroenterologist indicated it was very unusual for someone to develop colitis at my age. I was put on a special diet and offered medication. I did not want to take the medication due to the side effects. The no raw foods diet with limited amount of cooked fruits and vegetables, plenty of white flour and white rice diet along with bottles of organic aloe vera juice I purchased at the health food store was not working.
ULCERATIVE COLITIS Three days after starting “Liquid Organic Product” there was a just noticeable difference in the pain and bleeding with my ulcerative colitis. By the end of the third month I was symptom free with my ulcerative colitis and have stayed that way.
MIGRAINE HEADACHE PAIN & MUSCLE PAIN I did not have another migraine headache after starting the “Liquid Organic Product”. Before starting the “Liquid Organic Product” I was having about 1/month. My muscle cramps, pain and energy gradually improved especially after the 3rd month. Before I discovered the value of a high quality nutrition supplement I took ibuprofen on a daily basis. I rarely need pain relief for my fibromyalgia now.
HEALING QUICKLY In October of 2007 I had a long afternoon of picking up all of the leaves in my yard. After finishing my yard work I took off my gloves and discovered I had rubbed a blister. It had not only broken but the skin was off the blister and I had a nasty sore. I treated it by washing it thoroughly, applying antibiotic cream and a band-aid. The next two mornings after taking my shower I repeated that treatment. The third morning when I removed the band-aid the sore was healed. The skin was a little red but perfectly smooth and clean.
SLEEP 4th month I am sleeping through the night consistently. Before I started “Sea Veg/Aloe” I had to take a sleep medication. I was not waking feeling rested. With medication I was able to sleep 6 of 7 nights. The 7th of these I had a fibromyalgia night where I was up for 2-3 hours in the middle of the night. Now I am sleeping soundly through the night consistently and waking up feeling rested.
OFF MEDICATION By the 5th month I was able to get off my medication for sleep which I had never been able to get off of even with the other balanced vitamin/mineral product that had given me improvement in my sleep pattern. I only need to take Tylenol for muscle pain if I over do with too much yard work or gardening. Without the “Liquid Organic Product” the Tylenol was a regular part of my life.
ENERGY 6th month I have added two hours two my day, most days getting up between 5:00 and 6:00 A.M. without an alarm. My energy holds throughout the day until I got to bed between 10:00 and 10:30 P.M.
DEGENERATIVE DISC, ARTHRITIS, AND BONE SPURS When I was 8 years old a tree fell on my head and crushed vertebrae and cracked ribs from the compression on my head and spine. When I was 35 I developed severe back pain and after 5 years of that I didn’t want to live. Finally doctors discovered a herniated disc and after more testing they found a tumor as big as a baby’s head pushed up against the right sacrum. Removing the tumor brought down the pain level but did not take it away. My spine had been pathologically curved both front to back and side-to-side. Then from 1996 to 2005 I had 5 different accidents where others drivers ran into the back of me. I had x-rays and needed treatment after each accident. I tell you this so you understand I have comparison x-rays and why I might have degenerative disc and arthritis in the spine along with pain. The 10th month after starting “Liquid Organic Product” I changed to a new chiropractor. She took X-rays and took my history. She showed me my X-rays and said she was very impressed with my disc space and I good disc between all my vertebrae. In addition there were no bone spurs. Now I have the objective validation for why I only have back pain when I overdo it with yard work or other physical kinds of work. . By the beginning of the 3rd month after I started “Liquid Organic Product” I began taking our “Calcium/Mineral Supplement” and the “arthritis formula”.
STAMINA and STRENGTH By the 11th month I am swimming 100% more laps in the same amount of swimming time. When I do the cardio program on the tread mill, even at the steepest incline on the tread mill I almost need to jog to get my heart rate up to the cardio rate.
CHOLESTEROL In the 11th month I had my annual blood work done for my physical.. My cholesterol had dropped from 205 to 151. My LDL has dropped from 107 to 67.
IMMUNITY STRENGTHENED For every winter since my early 20ies I got numerous upper respiratory infections that often resulted in a secondary bacterial infection and bronchitis. I would have to have anywhere from 2 to 8 rounds of antibiotics to just get through the winter. That happened even after I had been taking another good balanced soy based nutrition product. In fact the last winter before I started taking “Liquid Organic Product” I missed an entire month of work with one bout of flu that required two rounds of antibiotics due to the secondary bacterial infection.. I started “Sea Veg/Aloe” in late August of 2006. For the first winter I can remember since my early 20ies I got through the winter without having to take any antibiotics.
HOPE AND QUALITY OF LIFE My health was in a downward spiral before I started “Liquid Organic Product”. I was grasping at straws for answers and had little hope. I was consuming bottles of Aloe Vera Juice from the health food store to try to heal my ulcerative colitis. I was able to eat limited amount of cooked fruit or vegetables due to the severe diarrhea. I was taking a balanced soy based powdered vitamin and mineral supplement. These things weren’t working. Those special diets and making shakes are behind me now. I eat a mostly raw foods diet with lots of seeds and nuts now. I not only feel good, I feel the best I have felt in my entire lifetime. Now I have hope and look forward to each day because I feel I have a future.

“I am Free of Fibromyalgia Symptoms”
Michael
For over two years now I have suffered from extreme fatigue and pain all over my body. I went from being a morning person who had energy all day and a very clean house to barely being able to get out of bed in the morning. If it weren’t for my 3 kids most days I don’t think I would have gotten up at all. I also noticed my memory was getting worse which was really troublesome since I am working on a degree in Anthropology.
After many doctors had told me that they couldn’t find anything wrong with me, I was sent to a specialist who diagnosed me with Fibromyalgia. It was a comfort to know what was finally wrong with me but a burden to know that there was no cure for what was causing me so much trouble. For about 2 weeks I did try to take the anti-depressants from the doctor but that made me feel worse.
Then our friends encouraged me to try “Liquid Organic Product”. Within a few days I felt that the pain was getting better, and I was sleeping more restfully. I have now added “Calcium/Mineral Supplement” to my routine of “Liquid Organic Product” and am feeling almost completely normal. Every once in a while I feel like the symptoms are starting to return but they never do like before. I’m back to my energetic self.
I have been taking these products for less than two months now, and am amazed that I can see such strong results. I would recommend this product to anyone.

My doctor was really into nutrition, unlike most doctors. He kept telling me that my fibromyalgia would be helped best by better nutrition and he also did an IV-C treatment for periods at a time along with a chemical detox pill that he and a nutritionist had developed to remove toxic minerals like mercury etc.
I have done supplements only from the time I moved away from home… never meds. I have found out first hand how biased most doctors are when it comes to supplements and many told me not to take them or I could have a problems with overdosing and cause more trouble with my body… serious trouble! I never listened to them and continued to read on my own and take what I needed. The thing they most forget is that pills are only 20% absorbable. So if you take what is recommended on the labels, you won’t even get what they say you are getting from taking these supplements in pill form. That is also why I didn’t receive much help from taking them all the years I did! I am sooooo grateful for the “Liquid Organic Product” since it is in liquid form and is all natural… no synthetics or things pulled from here and there and put together. I now have a life again, which I never thought I would ever have with fibromyalgia. Take care

AMAZING Story of Recovery from Severe Chemical Toxicity
On 25 different medications…
Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue, Immune Disorder….
depression, anxiety, allergies, asthma, and hormonal imbalances…
I Survived Chemical Toxicity
Chantal survived health problems that were caused by the chemicals in the salon products she had been exposed to for years and now wants to help others in the cosmetology field so they do not have to live through what she and her family did. Below is her story.
In 1994, right after our son was born, my health started to fail.
I was diagnosed with Fibromyalgia and put on medication in 1994. After a year I still did not feel well. I was then diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and put on medication for that. Another year went by and I was getting sick all the time. I was in and out of hospitals. I was sent down to a specialist in Iowa City where I was diagnosed withCommon Variable Immune Disorder, meaning my immune system was very weak and I could not make antibodies to fight infection, even when given a vaccine. I was then put on a full years course of antibiotics.
A while later my joints started to flare up and I was in a lot of pain. I had positive blood tests for Rheumatoid Arthritis and was put on more medication to control the RA. When I did not improve I had another battery of tests done and I was found to have Lupus. I was told my quality of life would be poor and that I may end up in a wheel chair or a rest home by the time I reached my mid 30′s. I was put on more medication to control these diseases.
In the mean time I was diagnosed with depression, anxiety, allergies, asthma, and hormonal imbalances. I was put on more medication. I was on 25 different medications at the same time! My quality of life was so poor that I thought to curl up and die: like the doctors told me I could do with all that was wrong with me. I was only 24 years old, a new wife, and a first time mom. I remember not being able to pick up our son from his crib because my arms would not work or they were too weak to hold him. Nothing can break a moms heart like that!
Despite the bad health I still managed to own and work in a salon. Several times I worked while I had an IV pic line in my arm due to infections. Every 12 hours I had to get a bag of antibiotic put in. The doctors started doing this for me because I was in the hospital so much. This saved me money and I could still work and be at home.
Then in 2003 something was really wrong with me. I had hand tremors so bad that I could not pick up small objects or eat very well. I started to have fits where my whole body would shake and tremor uncontrollably . I went from 99 pounds up to 140 almost over night. I did not feel well, I lost most of my strength, my hair thinned out, I could not think straight, I wanted to sleep all the time, the whites of my eyes were creamy yellow, and my body broke out in severe acne type lesions. My husband had to carry me from the bedroom to the living room to the bathroom and back again because I could barely walk anymore. I went to the doctor and was diagnosed with chemical toxicity and chemical allergies which had symptoms that mimicked Parkinson’s Disease; ie the tremors and shaking.
My liver and kidneys were very stressed. I had 33 years of chemical exposure built up in my body from salon chemicals like ammonia, thioglycolates, SLS, fumes from hairsprays, etc. This surprised me because I always wore gloves when doing perms and colors and had a well ventilated area to work in! At this point I had to close my salon and lose my income because I was too sick to work.
I could not do chealation by IV since my body was so stressed. We used a machine that put sound waves into my body to break up the chemicals like a high pitch noise would shatter glass. I went from weighing 140 down to 104 with in months. I was put on an all natural liquid supplement called Body Balance that helped to remove those broken chemical compounds and helped them to leave my body while it replaced all the lost vitamins, minerals, glyconutrients, amino acids, etc that the toxicity had depleted.
After three days of taking “Liquid Organic Product“ my strength started to return. I could stand on my own and walk a few steps. I had more energy by the end of the first week and I could think straight. I added ‘Calcium/Mineral Supplement” and the pain in my muscles and joints went away as well as the severe menstrual cramps and some of the tremors. I felt better than I ever had before! I could stay awake all day by the fourth month. That is when I started physical therapy to regain the strength to walk and use my arms. It only took me three months of physical therapy to do so! The physical therapists were very surprised. I told them I was taking ‘Liquid Organic Product” and that I thought it was helping to give my strength back as well as believing in the power of prayer and Jesus.
I actually tried to stop taking the supplements about a year later because I was feeling so good, but within a few weeks, I started to feel like I did when I was sick, so I started taking them again. That taught me that no matter how my symptoms went away, it is up to me to put the correct nourishment into my body to retain the health benefits I have gotten. If you put the wrong fuel in a car it won’t run long, the same is true with our bodies!
Since then, I have had several blood tests ran and there are no signs of toxicity. The pain from the Fibromyalgia is gone as well as the fatigue from CFS. My immune system is not underactive anymore, but rather, it is overactive. That too should balance itself out as it continues to heal. I do not have depression or anxiety and have been off all medications since 2002! The hormone tests were all in range. I do not have Lupus, Parkinson’s, or anything that I had been previously diagnosed with. Just the lingering memories of what I went through and I often wonder what our family would be like if I did not miscarry our daughter. I recently found out that cosmetologists have the highest rate of miscarriage of any industry because of the chemicals we are exposed to. I felt cheated out of our little girl. If only someone would have known and told me back then, we may have our daughter with us today. She would have been a happy and beautiful 12 year old just entering the 7th grade. This is the hardest part of what I went through. As I write this 12 years later, it still brings tears to my eyes. I’m not sure that pain will ever go away. The loss of a child, born or unborn, is hard on a mother. We are blessed to have our son, whom we almost lost at 5 months into the pregnancy too. I also just learned cosmetologists have the highest rate of bladder and ovarian cancers. I just had my yearly check up at Mayo inRochester . They took 23 vials of blood, did a brain MRI, as well as checking each body system independently and they gave me another clean bill of health! No lingering toxins or damage from the toxins was found at this appointment!
Am I in the clear for the rest of my life? We do not know. Time will tell if any long term damage was done to the cells in my body and what the after effects will be. So far no cancer and that is a great thing! I am almost 6 years in the clear now.
However, if I get around chemicals for too long, I can tell. My husband calls me a “Barometer for Chemicals”. My fingers will get a tremor in them and my body will become weak. I watch what I eat and watch what I put onto my skin. I use all natural cleaning products and laundry detergents. A lot has changed in my life since then. My quality of life has improved so much thanks to Jesus and “Liquid Organic Product”! I am able to live a healthy, prescription free, meaningful life again!
I am back in the cosmetology industry. That may surprise some. I reopened my salon in 2007 after being closed for almost 4 years. I own an organic salon now. No damaging chemicals! I do haircuts, natural ammonia free color, waxing, Body Wraps, Ion Spa Foot Detox Baths, facials, reflexology, and sell a wide variety of organic and all natural products for the family and house hold use. I also own a spa room where I help others detox and regain their health. You may notice I do not do perms. It is because I cannot find a safe one to use. There are companies working on safer alternatives to the traditional perm chemicals and I hope to introduce perms into my salon at some point in time.
I have a passion for helping others in the cosmetology industry who are dealing with vague symptoms such as weight gain, headaches, fatigue, tremors in the hands, aches, and pains. I know how frustrating it is when the doctor does not know why you feel so bad or they tell you it is in your head. No, it is not! I feel I was given a second chance at life to help others.
If you would like more information on how to remove toxins from your body and how “Liquid Organic Product” can help you, please call me at 641-394-7292. I can do a free seminar for your salon or if you want to talk one on one, I will be happy to talk with you and see what we can do to get you feeling better or better yet, to prevent what happened to me from happening to you!
