Coping With Endometriosis

I was diagnosed with endometriosis more than 12 years ago. I have never heard of it, and none of the doctors I had seen had ever mentioned that having severe painful periods could be a symptom of a medical condition. My worst symptom was excruciating pain during the cycle and continues to progress to a mild or moderate pain after that. This prolonged chronic pain has really zapped my energy and affected my moods and total well-being. At times the pain may subside a little but there was always a terror that it may return.

Throughout the years I have taken various prescription medications and undergone two major surgeries. Unfortunately none of the medications have offered complete relief and some have brought on unpleasant side effects. The second surgery that I went through did not help at all. The pain came back after just 3 months of the surgery. I have to suffer in silent physically and emotionally. Friends and colleagues always dismissed pain as being all in the mind. The pain that I suffered daily had become unbearable and I know taking painkillers to be able to function was not a solution. Finally I quit my job and decided to make changes to my lifestyle.

I had a more positive experience with alternative therapies. I did Qi Gong and tried traditional herbal remedies, meditated and do voluntary service work. Certainly all these had help my body to heal slowly. About 8 months ago my friend told me about mangosteen juice. As I’m open to alternative natural healing I gave it a try. There was nothing to loose. At the beginning, I took 60 ml three times a day for 6 days. Voilà! I cannot believe it, my pain was gone. I continue with the juice and guess what – there was no pain even during my cycle!

This juice is a miracle for me. I have been on the mangosteen juice since then and have not felt so great. I have much more energy and a new life. I have not been working for quite awhile and now I have a job. I’m feeling on top of the world and life is great. I have my friend to thank you and I want to share my story especially to those who is suffering from endometriosis and other chronic pain or inflammation. I truly understand your pain. Don't give up! Nutritional supplements, a healthy diet, exercise and a positive outlook on life maybe the answer to your problem.

Dr. Oz of The Oprah Winfrey Show Fame Recommends Goji Berries and Mangosteen For Vitality, Sexuality and Longevity!

During one part of the Oprah show on "Go Back in Time" which focused on anti-ageing tips, Dr. Oz recommended both the Goji Berries and Mangosteen juice. Dr. Oz says that they can improve vitality. He says these foods are ancient healing tools that have strong antioxidants to promote everything from sexuality to longevity. Also, in another separate show "300 Men Ask Dr. Oz", Dr. Oz recommended more foods with antioxidants to Ben Gordon, leading scorer for the Chicago Bulls, who requested information for his nutritional needs.
He said, "I’m a professional athlete. I train anywhere between two and three times a day. … What kind of foods can I add to my diet to help me maintain high energy levels throughout my diet and not crash after I’m finished working out," he says.
Dr. Oz recommended that Ben eat more foods with antioxidants. "What happens to a lot of great athletes is they are creating so much oxidation in their body from working out all the time, especially if you’re working out for more than two hours a day—you’re doing this for sure—that you don’t have the oxidant stores to keep up with that. So you’ve got to build up those antioxidant stores by taking leafy green vegetables."

Bright colored fruits, like goji berries, are also great, Dr. Oz says. "They grow in the Himalayas. They’re the most potent antioxidant fruit that we know," he says. "Remember, foods are drugs. They work just like that. But especially for an athlete that’s moving fast all over the place, you’ve got to keep the antioxidant stores in your body high and the best way to do it is through the foods you eat."
You are what you eat! Food plays a very important role in our health and we should take food to heal, repair and nourish our active bodies.
Foods like Goji Berries and Mangosteen are rich in antioxidants. Follow the doctors recommendation. Take Goji and Mangosteen for increased immune system , cellular repair, restoring the body to its normal function and for the increased vitality, sexuality and longevity.
