My father is a Type 1 diabetic and has been since he was 28 years old. He had a kidney transplant in 1985 and is required to take many medications to prevent his kidney from rejecting for the rest of his life.
He takes about 8 different prescription medications daily. So because of that he has been quite stubborn about trying new products like Herbalife.
About a year and 3 months ago he developed some blisters on his left foot. Doctors treated them for over 3 months trying to get them to heal up without success. His foot started turning black, and the infection began moving up his leg, so he ended up having his left leg amputated just below his knee. That was before I discovered Herbalife.
It was only 7 months later that the same thing started happening to his right foot. He developed a huge wound on his left heel; it was very deep and exposed his Achilles tendon. Again doctors tried to treat it. He was going into the clinic every other day for treatments like saline rinses, and even silver nitrate, which is something they use on burn victims. Nothing was working, and they told my dad that it was just a matter of time before his other leg would also have to be amputated.
Of course he was devastated to say the least. That was when I jumped in. I told him that if he never did anything for me the rest of his life to please try Niteworks. I gave it to him as an early Christmas present; it was December 1, 2004. I told him I would accept no money, only his promise that he would try it for one month and if he saw no results I would never bother him again to try Herbalife.
After using Niteworks for only 9 days, the doctors could hardly believe what they saw. He had new tissue growth beginning to form over the wound area, and they said that his circulation had improved dramatically. By the end of December the area had a thin layer of soft tissue over it and the doctors said, "Jerry, I don't think you'll be needing any more amputations." Niteworks saved his leg, and I believe with all of my heart that it will add years to his life.
As a bonus he has been able to get off his high blood pressure medication because Niteworks also lowers blood pressure. He also has never had his blood sugar levels as regular as they are now.
Get everyone you know on Niteworks.

A-J Long - Insulin Dependant Diabetic
From the age of 14 months old I was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes. This means that my pancreas produces little or no insulin to control blood sugar levels in the body.
Before Herbalife I was quite well controlled with my sugar levels having been diabetic for so long it becomes a way of life, but anything such as stress or sickness can easily disrupt this pattern.
By about day 3 (on the Advanced program + Aloe Concentrate) I noticed a greater lift in my energy levels & they would also remain constant through out the day. I also had a sense of general well being within myself & felt that
anything was achievable.
Through using the products my blood pressure & cholesterol levels have dropped & my blood sugar levels & HBAIC results are amazing. My blood sugar levels are now in the ideal range of between 4 & 8 mmol.
I have found the products to deliver all the protein & nutrients you require as well as being a balanced meal in regards to diabetes control.
Thanks Herbalife for making me so comfortable in the ongoing control of my diabetes.

My testimonial is on my father-in-law who is a Type 2 diabetic. I got him started on the Quickstart Gold in November of 2003. He suffered from being overweight, and had Acid Reflux. He has Asthma, and High Blood Pressure, and was dealing with Sleep Apnea all when he got started.
He had no energy and was on a lot of medication. After 7 days his Asthma improved. After 3 weeks he lost 15lbs and his Blood Pressure was under control.
It has been 4 months now since he started and he's lost 59lbs. Best of all his doctors have taken him off all his medication. The lab results came back normal, and he calls himself a reformed diabetic.
The products he's on currently besides the Quickstart Gold are: Snack Defence, Cell-u-loss, Aminogen, and Aloe.
He is a new man with a second lease on life, and has tons of energy now to enjoy it.

This is an update to the testimonial from 3/26/04 on diabetes. My father-in-law Jerry has reached his weight loss goal. In 8 months he went from 227lbs with a 51" waist to 141lbs and a 32" waist. His doctor's told him if they had more patients like him, they would go out of business. Thank you Herbalife!
