Testimonial from Dr. Atul Gupta

Being of Indian descent, I was raised in a household where traditional Western medications were used alongside Eastern medications and natural remedies. My mother would sneak flax seed into our brownies and cookies because she read about health, nutrition, and food sources of natural remedies on a daily basis. As a physician, I am often approached by friends, patients, colleagues and pharmaceutical sales reps to endorse various lotions, potions, juices, vitamins, powders and exercise regimens. When I was introduced to Mila, I was skeptical, but I am always open-minded enough to do my due diligence before saying “no.” I say “no” a lot, and it usually only takes me a few minutes of research to find a reason to do so.

Mila is different. The more I looked, the harder it became to say “no.”

I take Mila daily, as do my parents, wife and children. Since taking Mila, my cholesterol is lower, and further away from getting into any sort of “dangerous” numbers. I work in the Emergency Department where for 18 hours straight, I run from one medical crisis to another. My L3-L4 herniated disc used to bother me at the end of a long shift, but doesn’t anymore. My father has a history of high cholesterol and high blood pressure. Through yoga, meditation, daily exercise and Mila, my father no longer needs his cholesterol and blood pressure medications. My mother has had longstanding back pain as a result of a car accident in the 1980s. There was a time when she could not remain in one position more than 60 minutes, whether it was lying, sitting, or standing. Years later, through yoga, meditation, and Mila, she now volunteers in hospitals, nursing homes, and spends time in her garden every day. My wife noticed an instant improvement in her quality of sleep and her level of energy. As a mother of a 3-year-old and a 4-year-old, not many moms can say they feel energized! My children, by the grace of God, are healthy and happy and because I want them to remain this way I make sure that they take Mila daily.

My friend was hit very hard after being diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. This once vibrant model and active socialite often found that she had to bedridden on some days. When she wasn’t, she needed the assistance of a cane to walk. The progressive muscle weakness and change in her gait affected her back, causing chronic pain. The decreased activity affected her bowel movements, energy, and mood. Mila dramatically improved her pain, energy, mood, and daily routine. As a mother of two young boys, she feels so strongly about what Mila did for her, that she makes sure that her whole family, including the dogs, uses Mila daily.

Another friend with an intestinal disorder called ulcerative colitis has been keeping a “Mila Diary” for me. An active, working mother in her 30s was forced by her condition to endure daily enemas and live with daily pain and bleeding. With the addition of Mila to her diet, she has been able to reduce her medications and no longer has to take enemas on a daily basis.

These are just a few examples of what Mila has done for me and some of the people I care about. I have a list of similar stories including improvements in blood pressure, cholesterol, diabetes, ADHD, acid reflux, sleep, energy, skin, and pain, just to name a few. This list grows daily!

Testimonial from Tina Mulhern

As a holistic psychotherapist and life coach, I work with my clients to help them achieve optimal health and well-being on the physical, emotional, mental and spiritual levels as part of my Whole Person Enrichment Program. My experience and training over the past 20 years is vast and I employ a variety of techniques. I am thrilled to include Mila as part of my treatment program as it undoubtedly accelerates my clients’ transformational process on these four levels!   The following testimonial from one of my patients is a perfect example of how Mila is assisting her in generating profound and expeditious healing:

Like most people, I’ve been on the ‘treadmill’ for as long as I can remember. By Winter of 2008, my energy was gone and a couple of days before Christmas, while home alone, I fainted, hitting my head on the ceramic tile, thus requiring bed rest. At that time, I was suffering from significant depression with symptoms ranging from very low energy, low self-esteem, high levels of anxiety, loss of all hope and joy, and increased mood swings.  My psychotherapist, as part of the treatment regimen, gave me the gift of Mila. My joy and hope came back within days. I felt alive once more and my energy levels increased impressively. I was in awe at the speed of this change.
 
I have been taking Mila now for almost six months every day. It is a basic part of my diet and my husband’s. Along with my mind-body work with my therapist, Mila has helped me not only with depression and to renew my energy levels, but it has also with other ailments. For seasonal allergies I don’t need to use my inhalers at all, and my antihistamine intake is reduced by at least two thirds. I can now eat fruits that I was allergic to, because the inflammation is under control. The scars on my skin (including the ones from acne) are disappearing. I’m very happy to start seeing my real face as an adult. My mental clarity is much better, and the improvement in my digestive health helped me lose the last 5 pounds to reach my pre-pregnancy weight.

Thank you to everyone in Lifemax for bringing this gift of health into my life. My prayers have been heard and answered and for this I am eternally grateful!

Testimonial from Dr. Ming Wu

The following is a incident that I would like to offer in support of the benefits of Mila. My friend contacted me to help his daughter who has had eczema for 20 years. His daughter would not take fish oil pills because of the pollutants, or Chinese herbal tea due to taste. I have had a long standing issue with dry skin as well, and have looked for alternatives, with mixed success. With my friend asking for help, I prayed for an alternative solution, a whole food with Omega 3. The following day a client of mine came in and offered me a sample of Mila. I thought this is a miracle. I hadn’t heard of chia seed and that it contained the Omega 3’s we were looking for. I tried Mila for two weeks and noticed that my dry skin disappeared. Then I sent 2 packages to her and within 2 months her condition was remedied.

I am very cautious about endorsing products, I feel that I have a responsibility to my patients to promote things I believe in. The feeling I had regarding Mila was a very positive one. Mila has now become a daily part of my life, one scoop of Mila and one tablespoon of Goji Berries mixed with hot water. This provides me with good nutrition and the vital nutrients that help to keep my body in balance. The wonderful results I have seen have led me to become involved with the company. The Founders are people I have been fortunate to get to know and I respect their caring ways and outstanding character. I now recommend Mila with confidence to many of my patients and have been pleased to see many positive results it has provided for them.

Summer Tour 2009-California

WOW!!!

That single word pretty much sums up our California stop on the 2009 Summer Tour!

We really couldn’t have gotten off to a better start than we did.

Our day started with a 7:30 am call from Ray Singletary. He gave me a list of names and numbers and said “these people are waiting for your call right now.” Being a little jetlagged and not having even one cup of coffee, I said to Ray, “Give me 10 minutes and I will be right on it.”

Our first appointment was with Lee Caplin, one of the producers of the movie Ali. From the moment he sat down with us, it was as if we had known each other our entire lives. We gave him the “good ole fire hose” as Jimbo and I call it… blasting him with 60 minutes of what Mila and Lifemax are all about and will accomplish in the future. A whole lot of information for someone to take in such a short period of time!

Lee shared with us that he was on statin drugs for his high-cholesterol. We immediately gifted him a bag of Mila to include into his diet and we are waiting to hear his results.

We are never really sure what someone is thinking when we “fire hose” them about Lifemax. All we can do is hope that we got our point across and that the information is understandable and exciting to them. Our philosophy is to just do the best we can and leave the rest up to fate. I guess that the fire hose worked this time, as Lee called us a little later and asked if we could extend our stay for day so that we could meet some of his closest friends and business partners share the same information with them. All I can say is he was right and it appears that we and Lee and his friends are a match made in heaven. Again, WOW!

The evening could not have been any better!!! We pulled up at John Tucker’s home in the California hills. Double WOW! John and Leighann’s home was gorgeous. We “mixed and mingled with Mila” from 6pm until almost midnight. We met so many amazing Lifemaxer’s, each one as full of energy, passion and love for Mila and Lifemax — Judy, Tammy, Tracey, Patty, Jill, Christy, Vicki, Deana and Leighann – just to name a few. Of course, the guys were there, too!!

I had more fun at John and Leighann’s than I had had in a long time. I laughed so much that night, and at one point Mary and I got the giggles so bad that we couldn’t stop ourselves no matter how hard we tried. Leighann was the life of the party! I felt like I was at a comedy show. Up until that day, we had only heard about John Tucker but I have now discovered that Leighann is the one to deal with! Denise Kato, Maria Groezinger, Jimbo and I were the last to leave.

Saturday, with no rest for the weary, we started our day off the same as we ended the night before – with Denise and Maria. Together we brainstormed and talked strategy and came up with some really good ideas to increase their Lifemax business. Throughout the day we also met with Jill, Deana, Ashley (welcome to Lifemax), Tony, Christy and Tammy Burnell and two of her five children.

We finished off the night with a wonderful dinner with Hector “calling it like I see it” Padilla and his lovely wife Patty. We really enjoyed our time with them and getting to know each other on a more personal level. We laughed a lot as we shared our personal stories and hearts with them.

Sunday was over the top! We attended church services with Marla Maples and her beautiful daughter, Tiffany. Agape-Michael Beckaiths Church was such a delight. It was so full of love for God, God’s people, and the planet. I don’t think the smile left my face the entire time we were there.

After church we enjoyed a ride on a gorgeous yacht with Marla, Tiffany and our new friends Len, Kam, Phillip, and Phyllis. Thanks again for a fabulous day. Marla – you are an angel and a dear friend!

We then met up with Eran Blitzblau and Jennifer Brooks back at our hotel. I was so impressed with the two of them. First, Erin is one of the main driving forces for our global expansion into Israel and second, Jen is the only person I have ever known to know more than Jimbo about nutrition and health. Way to go girl!

Monday, we met back up with Lee Caplin and his partners at Howard Hughes’ former studio. All I can say at this time is God works in mysterious ways. One of my favorite sayings is “God can orchestrate anything if we will just let him”

We finished the evening off with an appearance on the Monday night conference call where Jimbo talked passionately about Lifemax. He did get a little teary-eyed, but for those of you who have been around for a while, you know that is Jimbo! Since it was still very early for us with the three hour time difference, we took a drive through Beverly Hills and looked at all of the beautiful homes. I was a little taken back when we passed what we all have been seeing on the news this past week – Michael Jackson’s tribute scene. He was loved by many. I guess I will end with this…

Be good to yourself.

Don’t be so hard on yourself.

Do the best you can with what you have.

Push yourself to become more and accomplish more tomorrow than you did today.

Love deeply and walk humbly and know NONE of us are promised tomorrow.

Summary and overall feeling of California visit

I have been to California a dozen times for work and play. Up until this past trip I never really paid much attention to the energy that seems to hover over the state. The people that we met seem to have this natural ability to be creative and think outside of the box. They have also set the right expectations for their Lifemax business. Although they are nearly 3,000 miles away from the Corporate office and don’t have the opportunity to participate in a lot of weekly meetings held on the East Coast, they understand that you need to put in a lot of hard work and a lot of blood, sweat and tears before things really pay off.

Each person’s commitment to Lifemax and Mila was clearly evident, as was their dedication to this journey and seeing it through to its final destination! Way to go, California Lifemaxers! I hope to see you all when we reach the top of the mountain!
