Eczema

My daughter, Jenifer Flood, has had eczema all her life. Born with this malady, we found out after many years being told it is a food allergy that it is actually a skin disorder that is aggravated by certain things one touches or touches your skin. In her case, she was allergic to many food acids, fats, and even sugars.
She became allergic to perfumes which are added to everything from laundry detergent, soaps, Kleenex, bathroom tissue, shampoos, makeup, on and on and on. Let alone, the actual perfume from a bottle. She had to spray that on her clothes, never on skin. Needless to say, doctors, doctors, doctors, and ointments, lotions, pills...............
In August, as a favor to me she came to Greensboro, NC, to the National knowing nothing about our great company except that her wacky mom was involved. The minute she stepped off the plane I started her with our OPC3, Skintelligence, Vita Shield, OPC3 Triple Serum, and Royal Spa Products. She was with me for one week and by the time she went home, her eczema was not only gone, the long time bumps on the skin from repeated outbreaks were smoothing out. Within a month, she was smooth as a baby's skin and a new Market America Unfranchise Owner. I am proud to say she is moving a lot of product due to her personal testimonials. She lives in Seattle and can be reached via email djflood@msn.com .

With the help of these wonderful products we were able to accomplish for her what no doctor has ever been able to do.

Best wishes to any and all!

I had it my entire life....(now age 40something)....until OPC3, Aloe, and Isochrome. The OPC3 took away 85%, added the Aloe and Isochrome...and it's gone for good. I had it all over my arms, legs, and sometimes face if using makeup. So, it's been great not to have to hide my hands, arms, etc...What a difference.

One of my UFO's has a daughter who has had patches of eczema break out and itch. She tried the Aloe Gel but it only gave temporary relief. Then she started putting the Ultimate Aloe juice on it and also giving her a little to drink morning and night. It has cleared up all her patches and needless to say we have a very happy 6 year old now.

Hi Everyone.
I was wondering if anyone had any testimonials on Dyshydrotic Eczema. Its where the moisture stops absorbing in you hands. My hands get little blisters then they peel. Then it starts all over again. I went to the Doctors today he says that this is what I have on my hands. I have had it for 10 months. Since joining MA 2 months ago,I have been taking OPC3 and my hands have cleared some. It flares up from time to time. Some weeks better then others. I ordered ClearShield and Aloe Gel to start using.
When I use lotion on my hands it makes it worse. Any help would be wonderful. Also Maybe Dr. Wilmer can tell me how I can stop this from happening.

I too had this problem ...mine started when I washing my children clothes out with harsh detergents (not MA's ) it went on for 6 months...I went to 3 doctor's I got steriod shots, which I then had to go off of OPC-3 no results then they put me on coal tar treatments some results but still more layers and still blister's ..I used aloe gel and Clearshield som comfort but still blisters came up....when we were in Ocean City at Regional my sponsor gave me a bottle of our MA product Royal Spa Smooth as Silk Hydrating lotion...he said try this and see if it makes a difference I applied it every 10 minute's or so in 2 days my hands had healed to the point of no blisters...the old layers of damaged skin peeled off and the new fresh skin was normal !!! I called my Doctor and told her that my hands were healed and a $20 bottle of our Market America Lotion had healed them up...not sure if it will work for you but worth passing on ...I know how painful this is...It amazes me everyday how a new find of our products can be helpful ...I think the fact that our lotion fights free radicals helped my hands...good luck ...

My son gets this on his buttocks at times. We use Aloe gel to help it heal and if we know he is in contact with irritants (for example, he wears a "pull-up" to bed at night, I use clearshield first. OPC is a great additive of course. I think the topical application of the prior two products have helped him get under control.

Good luck

My Dad had eczema on his knees and elbows. He used ClearShield day and night and he said that the Aloe Gel, applied topically, relieved the dryness.

The best product we have for eczema is the Aloe. It can be very helpful foe eczema at 1 -2 oz per day. I also combine over the counter Flax seed oil or evening primrose oil for the essential free fatty acids linoleic and linolenic acids. These are used by the body for tissue ( hair, nails, skin, and hormone regulation). combined with zinc in mineral blast and Vit C. it all helps with tissue. The free fatty acid problems can be seen with not only eczema but also in persons with thin, splitting, cracking fingernails and thickened skin on the heels that gets fissured and cracked. Also finger tips that crack and split the skin during the winter. I certainly am confused regarding this water thing. Since 70% of our body's make up is of H2O, water, the actual molecule is very inert and non reactive. Mucous membranes tend to swell every bit as much as the skin to allergins and perhaps even more so it is confusing in this girls case. It is impossible to know "every-thing" about this case just over the internet.
Obviously there are many chemicals in our water and I would hope she had tried distilled , pure water not bottled water which has lots of impurities in it. Chlorine in the water will cause chemical reactions as well as some persons will break out with exposure to either cold or hot water due to some specific antibodies that are heat (or cold) based. I would certainly suggest a trial of OPC and aloe for anti allergy and immunity boost with good skin care nutrients vit C , zinc, vit E. and making sure good nutrition all together and challenge with pure distilled water after about 4 weeks. I am assuming she is seeing her doctor about this. good luck and let me know how it unfolds.

Acid Reflux

I have Reflux (it is called GIRD*) and had it bad for years and years the only thing that helped me was Pirolosec that I had to take every day (sometimes twice a day) I got my first relief from the OPC-3 which I have taken 2 capfuls/day ever since I started it and it helped immensely. Then about two months ago I started on the ALOE first one ounce a day and then one morning and evening and my problem has all but disappeared . Once in a great while I still take a priolosec but eventually I believe that requirement will go also. The OPC-3 helped immediately though and I swear by it. The Aloe is good but in combination they are dynamite.

My very first customer had severe acid reflux. He began with the Aloe and the OPC-3 together. Now he takes the OPC-3 regularly and the Aloe when he feels the acid indigestion starting to be a problem. He started with one cap at night then moved up gradually until he was taking 3 caps a day for his first bottle. Now a bottle lasts him about 3 months, but he takes the OPC-3 every day and says he won't ever run out of it. Hope this helps.

One of our first customers had reflux so bad that he had sores in his mouth, throat, & on his tongue. He was on Prilosac(spelling?) and said that the side effects of all the medicine he was taking were so bad that he had to stop taking them for a while and then he would get back on them again because his reflux would get so bad. He started taking the Ultimate Aloe and gargling with it then swallowing it along with the loading dose of the OPC-3. Within one week of this, his mouth started healing up & his reflux began to improve. Now he doesn't take any medicine but also only occasionally needs the Ultimate Aloe. He faithfully takes the OPC-3 and says that he thinks that it has helped him more than the Aloe juice. He tells everyone about our product and now is thinking about getting in the business. Maybe your friend could try just gargling with the Aloe & taking the OPC-3.

Hope this helps.

When I first heard about OPC-3, I was skeptical. I was familiar with the benefits of grape seed and red wine extracts, but didn't think it could do anything for my allergy symptoms. I suffer from severe ear pain due to congestion caused by allergies. Typically, I treat my symptoms with nasal spray and antihistamines. A 30-day supply of this medication costs about $100. Within days of taking OPC-3, I was off both medications. What I like about OPC-3 is that it works on more than just allergies. I also like that it's isotonix. This assures me that I'm getting what I paid for because I know all of what I'm consuming is being absorbed. I also like that it's an all-natural product. I'm a practical person who likes practical answers to my problems. For me, OPC-3 makes a lot sense.

Both my wife & 10 year old daughter suffer serious allergy problems, and I should say did suffer from. Literally every 6 weeks my daughter would get an infection in her throat followed by a serious fever (102-104) this would last for a week accompanied by a regimen of antibiotics. She had suffered from this most of her life & my wife took clariton every day for many years for her allergies. For the last 10 months they have each taken 1 capful of OPC-3 a day with a half cap of the Vitamin C. My daughter has not been sick 1 time in the last 10 months (we were a few weeks from having her tonsils
removed when we noticed the improvement & cancelled the surgery). & my wife has maybe taken 4 - 1/2 doses of Clariton in the last 10 months. I am starting to make some $$ with my Unfranchise but even if I did not make a dime I would never stop because of what these products have done for my family. Hope this helps

I just have to say how much OPC-3 and our Isotonix Vitamin C have helped my husband's allergies. He used to have them year round - but particularly bad in the spring and late summer - to the point of misery. Sniffling, sneezing, puffy eyes... all of it - especially in the morning. He started on OPC-3 (3 caps/day) about 13 months ago and noticed an immediate improvement. Soon after, we also started him on the Vitamin C (one cap), and that's when his allergies disappeared completely. The OPC-3 alone helps
tremendously, but adding the Vitamin C really does the job. I'm writing this now because he was without his Vitamin C for a couple of days last weekend and he started that sniffling again. Sometimes even those of us who love Market America the most forget to appreciate how much the products improve our lives until we're without them! Hope this can help someone!
