This is a great testimonial. I recently started a 9 year old boy who has Tourette Syndrome on some Herbalife products. Tourette Syndrome is a rare neurological disease of unknown cause. It begins in childhood and may continue throughout life. The disease affects boys 3 x more frequently than girls.
Symptoms include lack of muscle coordination, involuntary, purposeless movements, tics, and incoherent grunts and barks that may represent stifled obscenities.
This particular boy experiences tics, involuntary movements, and also has ADHD.
He started taking 1 Formula 1 shake, 1 Herbalifeline and 1 NRG tablet in the morning. At 3:00 PM he takes another NRG and before he goes to bed he takes another Herbalifeline.
The second day on the products the boy told his mother that he could read better.
After almost 2 weeks on the products, the mother told me that his teacher asked him if he was on any medication. He told her he was taking vitamins. The teacher could see the difference. Also his reading grade went from failing to a B.
His grouchiness is gone; he gets right to his homework without being told. He gets up cheerful in the mornings, something that he never did. His parents are pleased as can be.

Hi, my name is Heather Burton from
Thomas had been seeing various doctors and specialists and I kept postponing his next visit as I knew he was going to be put on medication to control his behavior which I honestly was not happy with due to his young age, although the doctors had told me that putting him on the medication would be inevitable in order that he could lead a 'normal' life and be able to cope with school etc.
So, on hearing that Kindermins Vitamins had helped many other parents with Hyperactivity, I thought, "what have I got to lose?". I started Thomas on Kindermins, Formula 1 Powder and Aloe Juice from experimenting, I found his behavior to be best on the combination of these three products).
Within 1 week we were noticing a remarkable difference in his behavior and sleeping patterns-no more aggressive behavior and tantrums, he was sleeping through the night-in all his four years of life he had never slept more than a 2 hour stretch; sleep would be interrupted by periods of play throughout the night-, his concentration improved, he was a much calmer and happier child all round. He was enjoying life and so were we! It wasn't only us noticing the difference.
After 10 days, his creche carers took me aside and asked if I'd put him on the medication as they needed to know for their records-his behavior change was so dramatic, they thought that this is what I must have done!
I have a 'new' child. Thank you for the wonderful change you have brought into our lives Herbalife! HEATHER BURTON
Nicholas was nursed for six months, and then put on Enfalac formula. Shortly after I stopped nursing, he began to have one ear infection after another. By the time he was 18 months old, he had either developed an allergy to many of the antibiotics or they simply did not clear up his infection. He had also become a very "hard to handle" child. He had tremendous mood swings and was at times a very aggressive little person.
He saw an ear specialist and a naturopath. The ear specialist suggested I have tubes inserted in his ears, which is surgery done while under anaesthetic. I decided to first follow the naturopath's advice. He was to be taken off ALL dairy products, which meant any food containing dairy as well. I followed this very carefully. Nicholas never had tubes inserted and has not been on antibiotics for any reason since. His aggressive and "hyperactive" behaviour began to worsen.
By the time he was two years old, he was a child headed for drug controlled behaviour. I decided there was no way I could allow this and read everything I could on diet and nutrition. Along with my naturopath's advice, and my continued research, I brought Nicholas to what I consider an above average, even tempered healthy five year old boy.
His problems were all allergy related. The past 3 years have been a wonderful learning experience for me. For three years, Nicholas didn't eat any fast food, sugar, food colouring, and preservatives, dairy, wheat, bananas, corn and the list could go on for another 20 items. He was on mega doses of vitamins (as recommended in "Feed Your Kids Right" by Dr. Lendon Smith). I still watch his diet carefully, but he is able to eat a broader variety of foods. His worst has been wheat. I had been told by more than one doctor that it would likely be an allergy he would have to suffer with for his entire life.
Three weeks ago, I put Nicholas on Herbalife Products: Formula 1, 2, 4, Florafibre, Cell Activator, Schizandra, and Nutri-9. I should add that corn is also a product he has a hard time tolerating-a product which is in Formula 1. He not only tolerates the powder, but he and I are both pretty excited. Nicholas has been eating wheat containing products for a week with NO reactions. Herbalife, we love you! Thanks.

1994 Update: Nicholas eats anything and everything these days. He is a perfectly normal little boy in all respects.
I wanted to follow up on the progress of my friend Linda. I went to visit last night and the story just keeps getting more exciting! Below is a report on Tommy's recent progress. He has been on the Herbalife products just over (1) week now.
1. For the first time this school year Tommy got 100% correct answers on both his spelling and reading tests.
2. Tommy is completely off all (3) prescription medications.
3. Tommy's ticks are diminishing. (Tourette Syndrome)
4. Tommy now will play independently for hours or sit and actually watch a movie completely.
5. His attitude toward school has changed completely. He now has an interest and wants to do well
Tommy's Grandmother told me last night that she would pay any price, no matter what the cost for the results she now sees. I have received many letters of support regarding Tommy. I hope that you will e-mail this letter to everyone you can. I am listing the products used and the dosages below. I only hope that this will help other children and families that have similar problems.
1. Formula 1: (2) times a day
2. Formula 2: (1) tablet (2) times a day
3. Formula 3: (2) tablets (2) times a day
4. NRG Tablets: (2) tablets (2) times a day
5. Herbal Calmative: (1) shot in the morning and then as needed
6.
7. Tang Kuei Plus: (2) tablets (2) times a day
8. Herbal Aloe Concentrate: (2) capfuls in each shake and whenever possible in any drinks.
This program was set for Tommy at (2) times a day so as not to interfere with school time. Keep in mind that Tommy is 11 years old and dosages need to be adjusted according to age.
Most recent update on this program is that they added Herbalifeline 1 cap / 1 time/ day and have now been able to decrease the NRG.
Erva -
My name is Erva from NJ, I have a wonderful child's story to share with you.
My 9 year old son RJ was born 9 weeks premature with a birth weight of 2 lbs. 13oz. He grew up with many medical conditions such as high blood pressure, heart trouble, and chronic otitis media, resulting in 8 surgeries and scarred tissue damage in the ears.
He also had poor nutrition due to lack of motor sensory skills, along with other delays.
He most recently was diagnosed with ADHD and asthma. We decided Ritalin wasn't an option, however the medications for the asthma were making Robert very hyper.
May 1999 Robert was put on the general nutrition from Herbalife along with Schizandra, RoseOx, and NRG. Within 6 weeks he was off his medications and has been inhaler and antibiotic free.
December 2000 he was in a sledding accident leaving him with an unexplainable blindness to 1 eye. We immediately added ocular defense to his program, and he has regained significant sight back into his eye.
My family will definitely be Herbal Lifers.
