“I have a
hereditary disease Hematacrosis, in which my body
produces excessive amounts of iron. This overabundance
of iron will eventually overtax my liver and kidneys. A
multi-vitamin has always been out of the question for
me. (90% contain Iron and Vitamin C) I have now found a
supplement that my body can tolerate and am starting to
enjoy the physical and mental well-being that they
bring.”

“Several years
ago, [my husband] and I attended an information session
about the Truehope product. They had many studies to
show the effectiveness of this supplement on people with
various types of mental illness. We made the decision to
try to afford the high cost of this supplement because
it made sense to us that this might be the answer for
him. The weekly counseling from the program allowed [my
husband] to safely reduce the pharmaceutical drug he was
on and get more fully on the supplement program. He made
daily charts on his mental state, and was given
excellent support. It has been more than a year and a
half since he began the program. He is now depression
free, and for more than a year now has been able to
consider starting his own business, and embrace life
with joy. I am ecstatic about the effects of this
program.”

“My husband
began taking E.M.Power Plus more than a year ago to give
him emotional stability and relief from his bipolar
affective disorder. He has improved enormously since
taking these supplements and has had no negative side
effects whatsoever. His improved stability then provided
the framework within which he could deal effectively
with psychological and behavioral problems that had also
developed as a result of his disorder. He has turned his
life around during this past year, and E.M. Powerplus
continues to be essential to his well-being.”

“[My husband]
was diagnosed with clinical depression and subsequently
was put on a regiment of drugs. Prozac was the first
drug…and that was the beginning of the long drawn out
affair. Subsequently that didn’t work, so he was given
Effexor. That on its own didn’t do the trick, so
Wellbutrin was added. [My husband] still was not able to
stay on an even keel, so Lithium was added to the mix.
Because of some of the side effects from these meds, he
was also given sleeping pills in order to give him some
sleep."
"We decided to
try the Truehope program and EMPowerplus in December of
2000. [My husband] went to his psychiatrist so he could
have a doctor monitor his withdrawal off the drugs. This
was not going to happen, so we made the decision to do
it ourselves. It wasn’t until then that we found out the
seriousness of the side effects of the meds he was on.
It was a nightmare for the first two months of
withdrawal. After more than 2 years of being off of
these pills, the nightmare is still not completely over.
[My husband] gets protracted withdrawal from these meds,
and this could last for years to come."
"We are
committed to stay the course. People that haven’t seen
[my husband] for a year or two (or more) are shocked at
the improvement in him. It’s made a lot of people happy
to see him the way he is now. He’s able to go to work,
and be happy and satisfied with what he’s done and
accomplished. Above all, the glory must be given to God
who made this available to us."

“I am 47 years
old and suffer from Bipolar disorder. I was an honors
student and college grad, yet I’ve never been able to
hold a job for any length of time, sometimes being
unemployed for up to four years at a time. Finally
diagnosed as Bipolar in 1999, I have not been a great
candidate for antidepressants or lithium due to terrible
side effects. My psychiatrist suggested that the next
step was anti-seizure medication or electro-shock
therapy, neither of which was very appealing to me."
A friend
found the Truehope website and suggested I give it a
try. In desperation, I entered the Truehope program in
June 2001, receiving counseling and support as I
withdrew from my medications and increased the dosage of
the Truehope vitamins, EMPowerplus. No adverse
reactions, but more important, within two days, the
depression that had been part of my life for the better
part of twenty-five years lifted and has not returned.
Any mania symptoms are easily controlled by a small
increase in dosage, same as additional stress.
After a
life of un- and under-employment, I am now able to hold
a good job with a good salary and a chance for a full
pension at age 65.”

My 31 year old
daughter has a very rare medical diagnosis is whereby
she has a mutation in her paternally inherited 15th
chromosome. This was caused by an environmental
situation. My husband worked with noxious chemicals at
the time of her conception and in those days there were
not the precautions that there are today in the
workplace. She is somewhat Autistic and has had
psychotic episodes, serious health problems and has lost
most of her ability to communicate. EMPowerplus looked
like a long shot. I was not looking for a cure, however,
I was looking for something that may improve the quality
of her life.
I was willing to
investigate all of my options. Her psychiatrist, was
open to a trial with EMPowerplus and was acquainted with
the Calgary psychiatrist that was familiar with the
product as noted in some of the documentary material.
Rochelle started
taking EMPowerplus in December 2002 and she had
benefited in a variety of ways. She is calmer,
cognizant, and she has regained some of her ability to
communicate coherently.
I am very
grateful for Truehope and EMPowerplus and the changes
that we have seen in Rochelle.

“It has
now been five years since my hair first started falling
out. I was tired and irritated most of the time. I had
problems with relationships including my family and
friends. I was always tired at work and school,
everything seemed like a chore.
When the
doctors finally noticed my iron was low, my iron stores
were 5. I tried for the next 3.5 years taking iron as
prescribed with only minimal improvements in the
amplitudes of my moods and sluggishness. My iron level
only ever got to 21.
My
mother found out about Truehope and I began the
EMPowerplus supplement. My iron stores have jumped to
60 the last time I checked. I cannot explain how much
better my life is. I am actually happy. My hair has
not grown fully back but my energy level is normal, I
have gotten back to my proper body size. I am able to
concentrate at work and maintain healthy relationships
with my parents and boyfriend.
I wish
others could have the chance to experience the benefits
from EMPowerplus like I have.”

“Prior to
Truehope our oldest son was prescribed antipsychotic
medications for several years due to a genetic chemical
imbalance which started in adolescent. The medication
stabilized him but the side effects left him severely
disabled. He lost his short-term memory, all his joints
were painfully crippled, and he was sedated 24 hrs. a
day and because his metabolism was suppressed he gained
70 lbs. After a period of time the medication would
loose their effectiveness and the experiment to find
another drug and the proper dosage would begin all over
again. In short his life was a living hell and the
sickness drug side effects robbed him of his teen years.
Once he started
taking EMPowerplus and his body was free of the
addictive medication (yes these prescribed drugs are
addictive) he felt like his life had been given back to
him. The 10 lbs. he had gained dropped off and he could
participate in the physical exercise without his joints
hurting, making for an overall healthier life. Without
the sedation and with the return of his short-term
memory he could once again pursue an education and
future career. None of this would be possible if he
remained on medication. When our two remaining children
also became ill with bipolar imbalance we knew
immediately what to do and started them on the Truehope
Program which enabled them to continue working in their
vocations – one in pharmacy!
In closing, I
feel it is important to stress the effectiveness of the
product. We can immediately tell if any of our children
haven’t taken their supplement with the manifestation of
the illness – mainly depression and irrational
thinking. Within an hour of taking their supplements
they are feeling and acting normal again.”

“My depression
began to lift within two weeks of using EMPowerplus.
Now, six months later I am symptom-free, and have been
for quite some time. I never believed my life could ever
be happy and meaningful again, but it is, thanks to
EMPowerplus and Truehope.
My depression
wasn’t just a case of ‘the blues’. I didn’t care about
things that used to be important to me, my memory failed
me constantly, I could not do my job, never wanted to
leave my bed, anxiety set in and caused me to avoid
things I now consider trivial…the list goes on. I tried
treatment through a doctor. The first one handed me a
prescription and mentioned I might go out for a coffee
more with a friend. The second doctor tried to help with
more drug therapy, but the side effects far outweighed
the benefits, if any. On top of my depression I now was
dealing with other symptoms like night sweats, surreal
dreams, unbearable itching, incapacitating headaches…the
list goes on. In the mean time I was expected to be a
wife and mother and do my job-there is no stress or sick
leave for a mother or for one who is self-employed. I
had nowhere to turn. Then I read an article about
EMPowerplus. It was my last hope, and thankfully I now
can function normally again.”

“I have been
diagnosed by psychiatrists as suffering from Bipolar
Disorder and have been in and out of psychiatric
hospitals for 10 years. I have attempted suicide on
numerous occasions and undergone numerous treatments of
ECT. I cannot recall the various drugs I have taken over
that time period but they were numerous. I have been
hospitalized for as many as four times a year. One
hospital stay was in London Psychiatric for almost 6
months. I can assure you that nothing has helped.
Approximately 2
years ago a friend introduced me to “EMPowerplus” and I have
been taken this product faithfully from then until the
present time. With the assistance of my family doctor I
was weaned off the psychiatric drugs and now I am only
taking the “EMP” mineral and vitamin supplements. I
am no longer seeing a psychiatrist but only see my
family doctor on occasion to be monitored. I now lead a
close to normal life. No more suicide attempts. I can
now enjoy my children and grandchildren.”
