Subject: Re: Stroke
My Name is Bob Nabors I had a stroke on 8-28-1998 which left my left side
paralized. With 6 weeks of inpatient therapy I was able to walk again {enough
to be dangerous } sure enough in 06-03 one of my many falls I broke my left
hip bone with the surgery and 6 weeks confinement I lost the strength to be
able to walk by my self. 06-04 I started taking mangosteen. There has been
some subtle improvements in my overall condition such as pain relief in my hip
I was wearing a pain patch after a month on mangosteen I was able to stop the
patches and now am using an occasional Tylenol arthritis to manage any pain.
I have had some improvement in my overall strength a lessening of depression,
lower blood pressure that lowers my risk of more strokes. With the risk of
heart attacks lowered and cancer prevention why would anyone that's been told
about mangosteen not take it?? My summary is yes it will help stroke victims.
Every stroke victim is different because we are dealing with brain damage.
Overall we hope that mangosteen will help the brain rewire its self. I intend
to find out.
Sincerely yours
Bob Nabors

I take 10 mg of Coumadin a day and I take 2 ounces of mangosteen twice a day.
The only effect I have seen is that I have not needed as much Coumadin as I
was taking before I started drinking mangosteen. I have not had to change the
schedule for my PT and INR checks to monitor blood clotting....
I am one of the lucky ones whose medical doctor is taking mangosteen... He is
in my downline! As a matter of fact , I have not needed half the meds I was
taking! My doctor has taken me off several meds and cut others in half.
I also have high blood pressure and take 50 mg Cozaar. My blood pressure has
consistently been much better. Today it was 138/78 and I had not taken my meds
this morning before going for my check-up! Before going on mangosteen, when I
had to leave my meds until the afternoon, my blood pressure would always be
175/90 and
upwards to 205/115 at checkups.
YOU SHOULD ALWAYS MONITOR YOUR BLOOD PRESSURE WHEN YOU ARE DIAGNOSED WITH H B
P!
One of the meds I have NOT taken since January is 40 mg of Lortabs a day! NO
more pain from fibromyalgia and
arthritis...no more shopping in a wheel chair.... I can push a cart just like
other shoppers now! I also got the results from my new bone density test
today! I am NO longer at HIGH RISK FOR BROKEN BONES....
I am not at the MODERATE LEVEL of RISK!
I love my mangosteen juice and will NEVER be without it again! Nina Harrison
