Dear Dr. West,

I never want to be without Health Alert, it has helped me in so many ways.

Here is the most recent example. For 6 months, my feet and legs hurt so bad I could hardly walk. I wrote to Dr. West, then followed his treatment. Several weeks followed with a gradual improvement until I am now 100%.

What a relief to be able to walk and do all that I have to do without pain. At age 77, I am still farming and my feet and legs undergo strain and stress every day.

Thanks, Dr. West, for restoring my health. Also, thanks for the many helpful articles written in Health Alert.

Sincerely,

—Gloria Caldwell, MN


Dear Dr. West,

In 1997, I experienced my first episodes of atrial flutter/fibrillation, accompanied by irregular ventricular contractions. Over the next few years, the attacks became more frequent and more severe, making my life generally miserable.

Hoping to help my body, I took store-bought vitamins, but they did little to relieve my symptoms. My regular doctors prescribed beta blockers (metoprolol and atenolol), and while they did relieve my symptoms somewhat, I knew they were merely symptom suppressors, not cures.

In 2002, I came across Dr. West’s Health Alert, which immediately struck a chord with its explanation of phytonutrient treatments (as essentially condensed organic foods) compared to typical, artificially fabricated supplements—which digestive systems do not recognize as food and therefore do not absorb.

Dr. West provided me with a customized regimen based on my specific symptoms, and with high hopes I began yet one more trial. I very quickly experienced months with virtually no symptoms, the anxiety is gone and my general health is excellent. I’ve got a wonderful life back, and it’s due to one man’s insights into the realities of health problems and remedies that work. Thank you, Dr. West.

Dr. West,

God bless you for writing the Health Alert newsletter. From it, I learned how to help my 85-year-old husband. On New Year’s Eve, he got painful cramps. After 1 week in the hospital, many tests and antibiotics, he was sent home. He was told it could come from an infection in his blood or a stomach flu, or both. At home, all he could eat was soup. He lost 20 pounds.

Just in time, I read in the new Health Alert letter what to do. I ordered Okra-Pepsin-E3, Lact-Enz and Zypan. After taking this for 2 weeks, he felt like himself again. His doctor told him whatever he is doing is OK.

One has to be informed—ignorance can kill. I read all labels on jars and other items. 30 years ago we ate unhealthy; we’ve changed since we are older and wiser. Our doctor told us that we make him poor; we visit him only once a year for checkups.

Dear Dr. West,

In March 1999, I was suddenly and unexpectedly overwhelmed by shortness of breath and felt that I was suffocating when I tried to sleep. After 2 weeks of trying to sleep sitting up, I gave up and went to the doctor.

From my general practitioner to an endocrinologist and cardiologist in LA, I was diagnosed with congestive heart failure, perhaps caused by thyrotoxicosis—hyperthyroid. (According to the Dr. Broda Barnes test for thyroid, my low temperature readings consistently seemed to indicate hypothyroid.) The cardiologist prescribed Lanoxin, potassium, and Lasix. The endocrinologist started me on Tapazole, which caused severe hives from head to foot.

I began taking Standard Process supplements including Vasculin (6), Cataplex E (6), Cataplex B (4), 6 calcium lactate, 2 garlic capsules, 2 Hawthorne berries, and 1 carnitine. At present, I take 2 Vasculin and 2 Cataplex B. I gradually reduced the drugs, over time, about 2 years ago.

Thank you, Dr. West. You saved my life.

Very sincerely and gratefully,

—Barbara Schaer, CA


Dear Dr. West,

I am 59 years old. Since my mid-20s, I suffered from extreme dizzy spells to the point of nearly blacking out when standing suddenly from a stooping position. I learned 5 years ago that this condition is called orthostatic hypotension, a condition doctors did not address. Over a 30-year period, I was told by every MD I visited that this was normal—“don’t worry it will go away.”

Your Health Alert newsletter helped me confirm that I had adrenal exhaustion. I immediately started on your recommendations using drenamin and over the next 6–8 weeks saw a gradual diminishing of the dizzy spells.

I am now totally cured as the condition no longer exists. Thank you very, very, very much. I will be using the knowledge you give to your readers to help others.

Dear Dr. West,

After experiencing terrible gas problems in my stomach and colon, I took your advice and quit eating wheat and gluten products. It helped, but it didn’t eliminate the problem. I decided to look through your booklet, Disease of the Gut, for helpful information and I found it—food combining. That did the trick—no bread or starches with protein. I have them at different meals.

And guess what, you were also right about losing weight. I lost 10 pounds without even recognizing it! God bless you, Dr. West, for all your help—keep up the good work.

—Rose Marie Balbi, IL


Dear Sir,

When I wrote to you 4 years ago, I had spent 10 days in a hospital and the only thing strongly on my mind was a heartbeat of 136 to 160 bpm most of the time, and a cardiologist who had me taking Lanoxin and wanted me to take the full cardiology program—to include heart operations. My breathing was bad and my feet, legs and fingers were all swollen. I weighed 240 pounds.

I now have a heart that has been beating from 60 to 80 bpm all the time. My breathing is good and my feet and legs are back to normal. It started shortly after I started following your instructions for using phytonutrients. In 1 year, my heart beat had come down to steady 130 bpm and sometimes to 120 bpm.

My heartbeat first became steady and then slowed down to 60–70 bpm. I began to feel better, could mow the lawn by myself without stopping. I didn’t know how bad I was feeling until I started feeling good! It’s amazing. My doctor does not believe it. I follow your advice and all prescription drugs have been stopped.

To me this is amazing and to you I offer thanks, thanks and thanks.

Sincerely,

—Edward S. Rice, Sr., IL

P.S. I weigh 197 pounds today.


Dear Dr. West,

Several years ago, I was discovered to have atrial flutter, and was immediately put into a program of drugs, for controlling heart rate and thinning my blood. (Rat poison, of course.) This was my first experience with health problems and I was so influenced by the doctors’ scare talk that I went along.

The drugs landed me in the hospital and gave me high blood pressure (the first time in my life) so I was prescribed more drugs. My life was a disaster: extreme exhaustion, constant headaches and more.

When I was told that I would have to have these drugs for the rest of my life, I came to my senses, had more faith in your advice and started your phytonutrient treatments. I slowly stopped all the drugs, first the blood pressure drugs, then the more awful of the heart rate drugs. And finally thanks to your information and treatments, I am completely drug free and feeling great!

When we first talked, I was in such terrible shape physically and emotionally and you told me that after 12 to 18 months this would all be a memory. And it is. Thanks for a changed life!

I am 79 years old, and had quintuple bypass surgery 8 years ago. Approximately 3 years ago, I was diagnosed as having congestive heart failure and have been taking seven prescription drugs since that time. My ejection fraction at that time was 25. A few months later, doctors implanted a pacemaker, but I continued to have periodic episodes of angina.

Six months ago, I began a phytonutrient treatment of cardio plus Cataplex B, Cataplex E2 and Cataplex F. Within a very short time my agina episodes ceased. My ejection fraction is now 60.

I wholeheartedly recommend your treatments.

—Joe Batten, IA


In May 2004, I had a triple bypass heart surgery, which left me weak and ill most every day from the medications I had to take. Then in October, I finally found help through Dr. West’s recommendations. I started to take the phytonutrient cures he recommended and got my doctor to take me off most of the medications.

Since then, I have recovered remarkably. It is like a miracle. I sure have learned a lot from reading your natural healing encyclopedia.

Thank you,

—Margaret Browning, VA


Dear Dr. West,

My story begins in 2001 at age 63 when I was diagnosed with congestive heart failure. I had the classic symptoms of water retention, chest pain, fluid in my lungs and trouble breathing and sleeping since 2000. Doctors said I had an ejection fraction of only 20 and that I needed surgery to replace a leaky aortic heart valve.

The surgery was performed in March 2001, and I was put on four prescription drugs, which for the next 18 months did little to help, as my ejection fraction remained at 20.

In order to counter this no-win situation, I started ordering health publications. None of them had what I needed until I got your newsletter and two Special Reports, The Human Heart Can Repair Itself and Congestive Heart Failure Doesn’t Have to Be a Death Sentence.

I got started on Dr. West’s Healing Heart program. In less than 6 months, my ejection fraction doubled from 20 to 40 and all of the symptoms of congestive heart failure disappeared. I was allowed to wean off three of the four prescription drugs and my health has returned to normal.

Sincerely yours,

—Donald C. Jicha, WI


“I never thought prostate problems would affect me, since I followed a healthy lifestyle. I also know how the body functions. When I reached the age where urination became problematic and I had to find a men’s room fast, I knew there was a problem. Going to the bathroom six to eight times a night was not my idea of fun. After exhausting all the remedies available, with no significant results, I spoke to Dr. West. He told me about the new laser procedure for enlarged prostate problems. It’s been over two years since I had the procedure, and I no longer get up in the middle of the night and no longer have to run to find a men’s room. A major plus is my PSA went down three points.”

Dear Dr. West,

Returning from a strenuous trip to Germany in August, 2004, about to turn 75, I found myself in very bad shape with mitral fibrillation. The cardiologist’s office advised me to go the ER. If only I could have started your wonderful heart-strengthening protocol right there and then! Precious time was lost when I was put on Lanoxim and the infamous Warfarin (5 mg). The Warfarin compounded my getting weaker and weaker through the food restrictions and I felt like I was ‘running on empty.’

On top of that I had problems with my lower legs—the purplish-brown discoloration being the least—increased varicosity, swelling, and inflammation. ‘You need a good vascular doctor,’ said the cardiologist, ‘this is going to get worse.’ This was when your flyer brought new hope into my desperation.

By the end of May 2005, I started on his preliminary protocol until I received the next one, tailored to my special needs, by June 30th. I gradually began to feel better—walking, breathing, etc. And by August I surprised by family by taking up gardening and swimming again.

I lived through the Hurricane Katrina exodus on August 31. Back in New Orleans I was able to work like a lumberjack, sawing and dragging huge oak limbs. And when my October doctor’s appointment came along, the doctor said ‘your heart beats good and strong’ and attributed that fact to my outdoor activities.

Little did he know what it was that really saved my life—namely the Standard Process products! Against the doctor’s orders, I weaned myself off of coumadin and am taking Nattokinase instead.

Dear Dr. West,

I am writing today to express our thanks and appreciation for your help. About one year ago my husband Walter was diagnosed with moderately severe aortic regurgitation. The cardiologist recommended valve replacement surgery as soon as possible. Instead of agreeing to surgery, my husband followed your protocol.

Recently another echocardiogram was done. The result: the leaking is now classified as mild, 65% ejection fraction, and best of all, he does not need surgery any more! We are so happy, thanks to you.

Dear Dr. West,

Following your recommendations to control erratic systolic blood pressure, I have been able to eliminate all drugs and control my blood pressure to a consistent, acceptable level. I also improved or eliminated other aging annoyances. All due to your candid guidance when addressing the source of the problem. I salute and thank you for your progressive hard work, despite ongoing opposition to the findings of New Truths and Facts in the area of disease prevention.

Dear Dr. West,

I had been having hours of skipped heartbeats. I started following your recommendations of Cardio Plus, Cataplex B, Drenamin, Cataplex G, and Organic Minerals and experienced major relief in 2-3 days. I then went to a doctor for tests and found everything was normal except my CRP, which was 5.6 (off the scale and a major indicator of pending heart attack or stroke). Advising you of the results, you suggested I add Cyruta Plus. After 4 months, I went back for more tests. The results are truly amazing; my CRP went from 5.6 to 0.3.

You are truly gifted in your knowledge. I only wish more people with heart trouble were able to hear your message. Becoming a subscriber to Health Alert was the best health care decision I have ever made. Thank you, thank you!

Dear Dr. West,

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for helping me when I was diagnosed with congestive heart failure. Instead of dangerous heart drugs, you prescribed Cario-Plus and other nutrients which have given me a normal, healthy lifestyle with no more heart problems! I am thankful that the Lord has blessed you and may you always be a blessing to others! Thanks again and Lord bless you always.

Dear Dr. West,

You are the best. On February 28, 2002, I sent you a copy of my Echo Gram and a letter from my doctor stating that she feared I would eventually go into heart failure. All she and my cardiologist could offer was Lanokin, diuretics, and an ace inhibitor. When I refused the medication, my cardiologist told me to go be my own doctor.

Thank God I was taking your newsletter and wrote you. You sent me a protocol, which I followed for 6 months. I had another Echo on October 8, 2002, that showed significant improvement. My doctor considered it a miracle and my cardiologist released me. Dr. West, how do I thank you for my health and my life?

Dear Dr. West,

For approximately 3 years, I was on 5 prescription drugs for heart problems (pain in the chest) and high blood pressure. I became curious when the nurse took my pressure and informed me that it was excellent at every appointment.

About that time, I had an opportunity to read a copy of Health Alert. I was very impressed and immediately subscribed to it. Bottom line is that I have discontinued 4 of the medications, keeping only the Nitro capsules which I haven’t used since.

With Health Alert and recommended supplements from Standard Process, I feel great, exercise 4 times weekly and enjoy golf again. Thank you! Thank you!

Dear Dr. West,

For 15 years, my whole body was gradually deteriorating because of a host of illnesses like angina, panic attacks, cold extremities, numbness of both legs, cramps, etc. All the drugs taken throughout these years never helped but gave me side effects. I always thought I was going to die. I bought vitamins of all sorts but they didn’t help a bit. I subscribed to many health newsletters, but they were a quandary to me. They never answered my letters.

I almost gave up trying and researching for the right kind of vitamins until a Health Alert brochure came to my mailbox. My sixth-sense told me to try once more. After spending hundreds of dollars for subscriptions and vitamins, I doubted much that one more subscription would help. What struck me the most was your statement, ‘try writing to these people and see if you get a response from them.’ This led me to contact you and subscribe to your Health Alert newsletter.

I was in very bad shape at the time. I had over a dozen ambulance trips to the ER. I always felt scared that I was going to die of a heart attack. August 12, 1997, I took my first nutrients and embarked immediately on your program after receiving your response to my symptom survey.

After a month or so, to my amazement, my entire body felt so much better, and my worst enemies disappeared. No more angina, panic attacks, and numbness of my legs. I was so happy I went down on my knees and thanked God, praying and thanking Him for having me find a doctor such as you to help me solve all my health problems. I was crying and felt so good! My chest pains and panic attacks disappeared (these were the worst symptoms I was having almost every day).

Now, while taking my supplements and following the program you recommended, I have been enjoying myself at 70 like a 35-year-old adult. My doctors, to their surprise, no longer prescribe 8 different drugs anymore, just one. In time, I know I will be completely free from all my symptoms and the one medicine I am now taking. Can you imaging how happy my children and relatives are?

I’m spreading the news about Health Alert. My gosh! For the first time in 15 years, I am free from symptoms of a heart attack! I don’t have to live with medicines anymore. Thank you so much Dr. West for giving me hope and leading me to a new lease on life. My family doesn’t have to worry about me anymore.

Dear Dr. West,

I’m writing to thank you for Health Alert, and for your willingness to encourage readers to take alternative approaches to healing and health.

I’ve been treated by 8 cardiologists for heart problems which were diagnosed as arrhythmia. I’ve been treated with at least 5 different drugs to “control” my arrhythmia, which put me in emergency rooms three times, and finally in the hospital for three days. After the hospital stay, one doctor told me, ‘You just barely made it.’ I had begun to consider myself ‘terminal.’

I started taking the Standard Process nutrients you recommend for cardiac problems. I had not taken them before, as I’ve taken vitamins and minerals for years, and I couldn’t see how those tiny pills from Standard Process could be any different or more helpful. But in frustration I finally thought, I’ve tried everything else, and placed an order. Within 30 days after starting your recommended nutrients, my blood pressure stabilized, my heart rhythm stabilized, and the awful bouts of extremely low blood pressure became history.

I continue to take your newsletter and recommend it to anyone who asks (or doesn’t ask). I’m so damned fed up with traditional medicine and doctors who don’t listen, who say, ‘Take these daily and call me if you have trouble,’ and who seem only interested if one can’t pay one’s bill. The last doctor I visited listened to my sad story briefly, then said, ‘I note you’re on Digoxin. Continue to take that.’ Then he asked, ‘Is there any test you want me to order?’ I left wondering, ‘Let’s see now, who was the doctor in there.’

I had also been recommended and scheduled for a pacemaker by one doctor. I sought a second opinion by another who advised, ‘No, that’s contraindicated.’ He then offered the pharmaceutical that nearly killed me, and after hospitalization for that, his nurse told me he had indicated that I had ‘overdosed.’ I had followed his recommended dosage to the letter.

You and those like you in medicine “who hear a different drummer” are certainly very much appreciated by those of us who benefit from your independence and wisdom. Please pass my gratitude on to Standard Process Inc. Clearly you and those little pills have saved my life.

Dear Dr. West,

I was diagnosed with congestive heart failure in May of 2002. Shortly thereafter I started on your CHF cure consisting of minerals, Cardio-Plus, and Cataplex B. My cholesterol had always been 220 to 230 and my triglycerides have been as high as 1730 (this was due to medication that did not agree with me), although they were typically between 300 and 500.

In September, after approximately four months on your program, my cholesterol was 150 and my triglycerides were 165. My ratio of good to bad cholesterol was excellent. In fact, this was the first time they have been able to measure this ratio. The only change was the above nutrients. I am very happy with my results and have referred a number of people to you.

Dear Dr. West,

I just had a visit to my cardiologist yesterday ( February 2002) and had my third echocardiogram since November 2000. In November, my cardiologist told me I had ejection fraction of 35 and a leaky mitral valve that would probably have to be replaced and I was looking at a heart transplant in a few years. My heart was also enlarged. I started taking Cardio-Plus, Cataplex B and Organic Minerals along with flax oil in January. I had another echocardiogram in June, which revealed that my heart had gone down in size, my ejection fraction had gone up to 45 and there was no mention of a leaky mitral valve or heart transplant.

After taking these supplements for a year now, yesterday’s echocardiogram showed an ejection fraction of 50, and again no mention of a leaky mitral valve or heart transplant by the doctor. He told me he wants to see me a year from now.

I was in atrial fibrillation last January, and now my blood pressure is 110/70 and my pulse averages around 65. I still have a slight arrhythmia but feel proper nutrition for my heart will eventually take care of that.

I am ever so grateful I subscribed to your newsletter and followed your recommendations.

Dear Dr. West,

In April of 1997, I had eye surgery which resulted in a heart attack in the recovery room. I was subsequently diagnosed with congestive heart failure. After two years of becoming weaker and weaker and taking five different prescriptions each day, I contacted you because I had read an article by you that stated that CHF could be cured.

I started on your regimen in May of 1999 and, although I was taking many more pills than the five prescriptions, after four months I felt strong enough to ask my doctor if I could discontinue the heart medications. After two more months he sent me for a cardiogram, which showed a normal heart. My doctor said I may have been misdiagnosed.

Germaine Hill

Visalia, CA


Dear Dr. West,

Thank you very much for saving my life. Had I not subscribed to Health Alert when I did, there is no doubt in my mind I would already be dead.

Let me explain. For years the doctors were treating me for stubborn hypertension (high blood pressure) with stupid synthetic prescription drugs like beta and calcium blockers, diuretics, Hytrin, you name it. I bet at one time or another over the past 45 years, the doctors had me taking it. Unfortunately, I also had all the side effects you could imagine taking all those stupid drugs. You know, headaches, dizziness, leg cramps, depression, low to zero libido, gout, erratic heart beat, etc., etc., etc.

Then one day, about 18 months ago, my legs and ankles swelled up probably three times in size and I felt like I couldn’t breathe, which caused me to pass out. The doctor said I had acute Congestive Heart Failure. It seemed no big deal to him at the time. Would you believe all he did to correct the problem he caused in the first place was to write out a prescription for another synthetic poison (Lasix and potassium)! Great, uh?

The sad thing is that my blood pressure was never really all that high, at least that’s what I thought (138-150 over 90-98). But the doctor always convinced me that it was critical that I take the blood pressure medication faithfully and make an appointment to see him at least twice a month. The doctor would always convince me to take his advice or I would eventually end up with a stroke or heart attack.

It’s amazing looking back over the years, with all the problems and side effects I had with blood pressure medication, that I didn’t die from all that poison years ago! If I would have died, here is what the doctor would have said, ‘I really don’t understand it! We had his blood pressure under control, but he died anyway.

Thanks to you, Dr. West, and all your amazing knowledge concerning our body and how it works, I was able to slowly get off all my synthetic poisons prescribed by misinformed doctors, and by simply following your deep breathing exercises, changing my diet, and exercising I was able to control my blood pressure. And today, by continually following your professional advice, my blood pressure is almost normal, 128 over 87. And this is with no blood pressure medication. Great uh? Even when I was on blood pressure medication, it never lowered my blood pressure to normal.

I am really grateful that you sent me your advertisement about your Health Alert newsletter and I am super fortunate I made the time to purchase it, read it, and practice what you recommend. The information you sent me has actually saved my life and I feel I owe you a lot. Thank you very much and please keep up the good work. There are lots of us out here that desperately need all the correct medical help we can get, because there are way too many misinformed doctors that are more willing to prescribe a pill for whatever ails you. I find it sad that not more people have your life lifesaving information, so every chance I get, I am telling my family and friends. I hope you don’t mind.

Most sick people are blindly accepting the advice of their doctors and faithfully taking their prescription medication each day, not knowing they are being poisoned. It’s sad to me to know that so many professional doctors have been tricked into believing the pharmaceutical hype (as you would put it) of having everyone take a pill for whatever ails them. They have pills to help you sleep, to wake you up, to make you feel better, to help you when you are constipated, or help you stop when you have diarrhea. Matter of fact, I think they have a synthetic prescription poison pill for practically every illness you can think of. I just thank the Lord that we still can find highly trained doctors like you, that are not afraid to stand up against all the misinformed doctors in the world. That you constantly provide us with the correct medical processes and information that actually heals us, instead of poisoning us.

I am really blessed having access to all the lifesaving information you provide in your Health Alert newsletter. It really excites me that I have finally found medical information that I can count on, that actually works and I can actually see and feel the health improvements. Great job, Dr. West, keep up the good work. I will always be indebted to you. I hope I never miss one of your Health Alert newsletters.

I wanted you to know that there is somebody out there that really appreciates all the sincere hard work you put into developing the very best and most useful health newsletter I ever ran across.

Dear Dr. West,

When I first contacted you 18 months ago, I could not breathe, had a heart attack and many blockages, severe coughing, and dramatic weight loss. I was, in fact, dying. You told me that my doctors were poisoning me and I was headed toward heart failure. You sent a prescription and regimen for regaining my health. I have instituted significant changes in diet, water consumption, nutrition, vitamins, and exercise—as prescribed by you and my local nutritionist.

The results could not have been more spectacular, though it has taken the timeframe you indicated it would. My heart is now normal, my breathing went from spirometer readings of 44% to 95%, my weight has returned, and I have returned to my exercise. I am no longer being poisoned by drugs (and you were right about that). And even my asthma is disappearing. I never expected to see this level of health again.

Thank you for your expertise, direction, encouragement, and for telling me the truth. Your knowledge has given me my life back on a spectacular level.

Dear Dr. West,

I wrote to you about a year and a half ago telling you of my prostate cancer and the subsequent use of Lupron for almost three years. The side effects were difficult to live with. Just over a year ago, I stopped going to the doctor altogether. It was shortly before that period that I purchased some of the vitamins from Standard Process after having sent a suggested health survey from your office.

My doctor told me that I was a radiation failure and would be on Lupron for an indefinite period. This I would not allow, and I told him that I would rather die alive than live half dead. He also told me, ‘You will start losing weight and your appetite will falter, you will start to feel pain in your back ...’; all this if I stopped taking the Lupron.

The only thing I have changed since stopping the Lupron was that I started exercising and a slight change in diet but primarily the vitamins from Standard Process. I have no idea what has transpired within my body but since I have been taking the vitamins none of the above has happened. I suppose it could be chalked up to coincidence, chance occurrence, fluke, or whatever one wishes to label this. For me it is a serendipitous happening brought about by the wonderful vitamins from Standard Process.

Bruce, the feelings that I am enjoying are ineffable. Really beyond what I could relate to you. Simply put…they have changed my life. I say it with all seriousness of a man that has gone through his share of emotional excursions for the past ten years. They stopped when I subscribed to your newsletter.

I was convinced that I was burdened with dysthymia because of my state of mind. Joyous days were very foreign to me. It was one thing after another. Aches all over my body lead me to believe that my cancer had certainly metastasized. Even though I had mentally accepted that this could happen, it creates much anxiety when it is not conclusive.

Also, my right leg would become useless after a short and unstrenuous walk. The foot would start to hurt and then that would travel to the calf and then to the thigh. I could not walk a hundred yards without having to sit and rest my leg and foot.

I couldn’t play golf…never mind tennis. I could not believe this was happening to me. Trying to understand what to do I recalled your letter and the mention of Glucosamine Synergy. When I ordered the Health Security Program (HSP), I also ordered a bottle of the Glucosamine Synergy. Voila! No more pain.

Since I have been taking the HSP, my depression has all but gone and I have no aches and lots of pep. I skip down the stairs, Bruce, and I do so with the joy and happiness of a child even tough I’m 77. You have made me a new man. And my libido is as healthy as can be.

Bruce West…please believe that from the deepest corner of my heart I am grateful to you and for your newsletter. Thank you most sincerely.

Dear Dr. West,

In October, 2005, my cardiologist told me that I had a heart murmur, a leaky valve, and atrial fibrillation. My pulse was so erratic that I could not read. My blood pressure was through the roof. He prescribed multiple drugs, and said that because I was 87, that was all he could do.

Before 2005, and for over 10 years I took vitamins and minerals to try to control my heart, I even added CoQ10, Hawthorne, and L-Carnitine—all to no avail.

I learned from a friend that you could actually cure heart disease. And after completing your personal questionnaire, you designed a protocol for me. After 5 months now, the results are amazing. There is a world of difference between the phytonutrients you prescribe, and standard vitamins and minerals.

I’ve weaned off all prescription drugs, my blood pressure is normal, my pulse is normal, and my heart is doing great. What a wonderful feeling! I wish I could find adequate words to say more than just a plain ‘thank you.’ I’m just so very grateful.

Dear Dr. West,

Well you did it! You have indeed cured me of Atrial Fibrillation. Thank you! Thank you! I was methodical in following your instructions and your specific phytonutrients. I have not had an episode of AF in months.

I’ve weaned off all prescription drugs, my blood pressure is normal, my pulse is normal, and my heart is doing great. What a wonderful feeling! I wish I could find adequate words to say more than just a plain ‘thank you.’ I’m just so very grateful.

—W. Jesse Harber, FL


Dear Dr. West,

I received your evaluation in November, 2005. I started on your specific recommendations for phytonutrients, diet and exercise. I felt better almost immediately. But then I kept feeling better and better as the months wore on! This improvement kept up until now (21 months after starting).

I cannot believe how good I feel. The tachycardia is completely gone. I no longer have aches and pains even though I am 78 years old. I have more energy and ‘staying power’ than anyone I know that is even close to my age. I don‘t get colds any more. In short, I have absolutely no more health complaints. Thank you

Dear Dr. West,

I was born with a deformed aortic valve. By 1993 I had had my second valve replacement. I ended up in a coma for 5 weeks. In November of 2006 my doctor told me that my valve was already leaking at 75%, and the left side of my heart was enlarged. I was also told that I could not have another surgery because of complications from my 1993 surgery. My doctor offered me drugs to buy time, but she said they would destroy my liver. I said no thank you.

Instead I came home and wrote a letter to you. Within a short period of time I had a personal protocol from you and got started. Less than 8 months later I went back to see my cardiologist. She expected a very sick person to walk in. Instead I was a person full of life. My heart was back to normal size, and my valve leakage improved by 50%. And the best news, I was taken off the surgery list. I am 45 years old, and I have never felt this good in my whole life. Thank you so much.

Dear Dr. West,

In 1995, the top electrocardiologist in the region told me that I had 2-5 years to live. I had progressive and incurable Atrial Fibrillation that ‘medical science could do nothing about.’ By 2000 Congestive Heart Failure had set in due to the years of AF. I opted for a ‘miracle’ experimental surgery at the world-famous Cleveland Clinic. I eventually had it twice, and it helped for a while before my disease came back with a vengeance.

I finally contacted Dr. West. He started me on a new protocol of phytonutrients, B-vitamin complexes, and high doses of iodine. In less than 90 days I felt this monster disease just weaken and lose its grip on me. In two more months the disease had just melted away as my energy and vitality returned. One more month later I knew I was cured, and as of today, one year later, I am willing to tell others that I am cured.

Two of the drugs I was prescribed almost killed me—leaving me ashen and semi-conscious on the floor. I was lucky to have survived the medical treatments, and to find Dr. West. My advice to anyone is follow Dr. West’s protocol EXACTLY. Make ZERO changes or substitutions. Give the protocol and the diet and exercise changes four months, and you will get your health and life back. Thank you Dr. West, and God bless.

Dear Dr. West,

My pain and drug side effects are gone!.

In the spring of 2000, I had an attack of cystitis. It was very painful and stubborn, and I went the complete route of antibiotics, tests, cystoscopy, lab work, more drugs, etc. Drug reactions not only sent me to the hospital emergency room, they also compounded my original problem. The pain continued and more drugs were prescribed and failed. After months of misery, I appealed to you for help.

After 3 months of following your recommendations, my pain and all the drug side effects have disappeared. It amazed me, my family and my friends.

Dear Dr. West,

I’m shocked and delighted.

I have had a remarkable reaction to the gluten-free diet and phytonutrient treatment you recommended. In less than a month all my arthritis pain is gone, I’m off insulin, and I’ve lost 5 pounds! This probably doesn’t surprise you, but I’m shocked and delighted.

Dear Dr. West,

Free of indigestion.

I am 86 years old. Every day I had indigestion pain about half an hour after eating and it lasted for about 3 hours. I had all sorts of tests, but my doctor (a specialist!) was baffled. I tried various pills, enzymes, etc., but nothing worked until I followed your advice. Since then, I haven’t had any indigestion troubles.

Dear Dr. West,

For years I was on blood pressure medication, antibiotics for rosacea and Prempro for hormone replacement therapy. I wasn’t being cured of anything and my blood pressure was still too high despite the drugs.

I subscribed to Dr. West’s Health Alert newsletter. His treatment designed to fit each individual’s need seemed like the perfect opportunity to get off all the drugs I was taking, and to avoid their disturbing side effects.

After starting the treatment, I immediately stopped taking the antibiotics and my rosacea began to improve.

Within 2 weeks, the irritable bowel syndrome (caused by the antibiotics) was gone and my low blood sugar normalized. After 3 months, I gradually weaned myself from Prempro.

Now I’m weaning myself from the blood pressure medication and am down to taking it every 3 days. My blood pressure is down to an average of 124/67 and has gotten as low as 113/66.

In another month, I’ll reach my goal of eliminating all drugs!

Dear Dr. West,

Years of estrogen prescribed by my doctor caused uterine cancer. I had a hysterectomy, followed by radiation. I was told I was cured. Six months later, however, the cancer had spread to my lungs. I was told that even with more surgery, radiation and chemotherapy I probably only had 6 months to a year to live.

That’s when I came to see you. You put me on my first treatment, and have monitored my progress ever since. That “6 months to a year” death sentence has now become 15 years of a normal life. I’m almost 80 now, and I feel wonderful. I have no problems and feel strong and healthy.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

My problems started with drugs for my diabetes and prostate. I began to suffer from blackouts and ‘spells.’

You told me right from the start that my problems were caused by the combination of diabetes and prostate drugs, but all the other doctors I had been seeing disagreed. In the end, you were right. You helped me normalize both my blood sugar and my prostate without using drugs. My spells disappeared.

I later learned that I had bladder cancer from the prostate drugs I had taken for so many years. I let the doctors “wash my bladder” with drugs, but that didn’t work. I came back to you and you started me on a bladder cancer treatment, and in 3 months my bladder was normal again!

Thank you so much.

Dear Dr. West,

I am happy to let you know that after following your nutritional advice for 3 months, all my problems disappeared. No more backache. No numbness in my left hand. I also had a very pleasant surprise after my annual physical. All the test results were normal, even my cholesterol, which is unusually high.

Thank you, Dr. West. Please continue your wonderful work.
