HIV/AIDS Patient
By Louis Rios

Hello.

My name is Louis Rios and I would like to share my testimony on how Noni juice has helped turn my AIDS status back to just HIV!

I was diagnosed with HIV in March of 1986, and a few years ago, I was diagnosed with AIDS. Since 1986, I have had many health problems. But the worst ones didn't come around until 1996; ten years later.

By early 1997, my weight had decreased down to just 115 pounds, and I had become so weak that I was assigned a wheelchair from the Veteran's Administration Hospital in Houston where I receive my primary health care. My viral load (a test that determines the amount of HIV cells in a ml of blood) had increased to over 170,000, and my T4 count (T4's are the main cells of the immune system) had gone down to 80 (a normal count is 1,000+). In the winter months of 1997 I was getting very sick all the time, having to stay in bed much of the time because, even if I wasn't sick, I was so weak I couldn't do anything. In fact, my wife had to take over all of my duties around the house. I couldn't even take out the trash. I had also developed a serious sinus infection that I couldn't even smell or taste, and was getting major sinus pains everyday of which I had to take medicine for. I was so skinny, that I would get very sick with high fevers if I did any kind of activity. Plus, no matter how much clothes I put on, my bones would literally feel pain from the cold weather which in turn would make me sick with a fever, and back in bed I went for at least a couple of days. And if all that wasn't enough, I wasn't able to take any medications for AIDS because they would have poisonous effects on me. For years, every time a new medication had come out, I would try it with the same results. Even after just taking a half of a dose of any of these meds, I would get violently ill for more than 24 hours. In those 24+ hours, I would be throwing up about every hour, and I would become so weak that I couldn't get out of bed for any reason and I would have to sleep most of that time. I couldn't even eat or drink anything, because I would throw that up as well. I was such a terrible mess that I didn't think I was going to make it through Christmas of '97.

Luckily, I made it to Spring of '98 and I was now expecting, like in past years, to start gaining weight and feeling better. But that wasn't happening like before. I had remained in the same condition that I was in throughout the winter. That's when I told my wife that I'm definitely not going to make it to Christmas of '98 unless God intervenes and does something about it real soon. Then I went ahead and made out my last will and testament.

Now, it's late in May of '98 and I go in to the VA hospital to undergo major sinus surgery to clear out my sinuses that were completely filled with infection. Around the same time, my wife was notified that she had won fourth place in a local online contest that she had entered earlier that month. But, because she was in last place, she didn't receive any of the pre-selected prizes because those had been taken by the higher placed winners (God had set it up that way: She had also won a second bottle the very next month under the same circumstances.

So, she was left to receive the only prize that was left, that little did we know, would be our miracle! That prize was a bottle of Noni juice. I had thought; oh no, this is some health nut's product that isn't going to do me any good, so I didn't give any further thought to it. I believed that if pharmaceuticals couldn't help me, this stuff certainly couldn't. I was completely skeptical. But my wife, thank God, had started to drink one ounce a day as recommended, and soon started to notice that her energy levels had gone up and that she was getting stronger, and was now able to do more and not get tired. Plus, she noticed that she had gotten feeling back in her leg that the week before, had injured it by falling hard at the back door steps which had caused her to lose feeling to that leg. Plus, at the point where she had hit her leg, all the pain had stopped. So, she got me to start taking Noni Juice the first day I got back home from surgery. She had given me 3 ounces to drink that night. The very next day, I had so much energy, that I had forgotten all about my doctor's orders to stay rested so I would not start bleeding from my nose and wind up back in the hospital, and I went out grocery shopping and run other errands that I needed to do, and guess what? It didn't hurt me to do all that like the doctor thought it would.

After about a month of being on Noni Juice, I had gone to see my doctor who had persuaded me to try a new combination of drugs that had just come out. I really didn't want to try them because I knew how these drugs had effected me in the past, but I went ahead and took them home. That evening, I started by just taking half a dose, like before, of Crixivan to see if I can tolerate even that. A few hours went by and I noticed I wasn't feeling any side effects. Then, the next day, I took a full dose and a few hours later, again I didn't notice any side effects. My wife, noticing that I wasn't ill, had asked me if I had even started taking my new meds. I told her yeah, but not only that, I've been taking full doses without any side effects, and at the same time, we looked at each other and said the same thing, "Noni". The Noni juice had allowed me to tolerate the medications that in the past would have had poisonous effects on me. But not only that, I wasn't even suffering from diarrhea, the most common side effect that other HIV and AIDS patients were getting with these same meds.

Now about 3 weeks after I started the new meds, my doctor had ordered a viral load and T4 test. A week later, I got the most incredible news! My viral load was down to around 3,000 and my T4's had increased to 240. I haven't had them that high in 5 years! These results are highly remarkable! I know of an AIDS patient in California, after being sent home by his doctor to die in '97, had started to drink 6 ounces of Noni Juice daily for 37 days, and went from a viral load of over 750,000 down to only 108,000; and that was by just taking the Noni Juice alone without any other medications. I too, was getting the same kind of results by just taking 2 ounces a day of Noni Juice and my medications. Today, I still have HIV, but I'm not in the Aids stage any longer. Plus, the viral load shows I hardly have any HIV cells left in my blood and my T4's are above 200. But also, now I've gained weight and strength again to the point where I don't have to use my wheelchair anymore! I have tried to wear myself out throughout the month of August by keeping myself active all day, but I can't; and the next day, I'm ready to do it all over again. I can even go grocery shopping after spending a whole day walking around and pushing my two toddlers in their stroller at Astroworld (a local amusement park in Houston, Texas)! In fact, I now feel healthier than your average healthy person. All thanks to God by providing an all natural fruit drink from a fruit that grows on a tree that God made himself called the Noni tree, and it only grows healthfully in the French Polynesian Islands in the South Pacific Ocean. I can now do whatever I want to all day; play with my kids, work around the house, work on my vehicle, go shopping, and even make love to my wife, without ever getting tired, sore, or sick like would happen to me before.

God has answered our prayers and those prayers that had come from our family and friends! Thank you Father, thank you Chuck Nelson for putting up a bottle of Noni Juice in the contest, thank you Mike Stewart and Teresa Presley for all your continued support, and I thank all those who read this, because without being able to share God and Noni juice to the world, none of this would have had any meaning whatsoever! God bless you all!

UPDATE: I have received my blood test results from blood taken August 25th 1998, and my viral load is now down to just 839 and my T4's have remained above the 200 mark! My doctor is very happy for me!

It is now 1-11-99 and I haven't gotten a single cold or flu since I have started drinking the juice! This proves that even healthy people can benefit from drinking Noni Juice because it can boost the immune system to help them from catching colds, flu's, and other illnesses in the future. I know of others who are "generally healthy" and have already gotten the flu this winter, but I have not; even after doing my walking routine one day in the freezing rain we got right before Christmas '98! Plus, my weight has increased to 125. My doctor has now ordered me to continue to use Noni juice in combination with my medicines.

SPECIAL NOTE: Always follow your doctor's advice, and let him/her know that you have started drinking Noni juice; an all natural fruit juice that creates a natural alkaloid called Xeronine in your body to help your organs work more effectively and efficiently so that your body can heal itself and help prevent future health challenges. Many patients have reported that it was necessary to either cut back or stop their medications after some time after beginning to drink Noni Juice because their condition has improved to where they don't need as much medication or none at all. Only your doctor can tell you to cut back or stop your medications; which they would be happy to do if your are indeed improving. So if you start to feel side effects after some time after starting to use Noni Juice, go see your doctor because the most likely cause is from the medications that you either need to cut back or no longer need. Noni Juice has never been known to cause any side effects or drug contraindications, but do not drink Noni Juice if you are taking immuno-supression drugs (ie; such as those prescribed for patients that have had an organ transplant), because Noni Juice can boost the immune system, not suppress it! Now, once these patients are no longer taking immuno-supression drugs, they too can start to enjoy Noni juice.
