"Sharla, your web site and book have changed my old age. I'm 65 and was
(notice was) suffering from aching legs, aching joints and fuzzy thinking, confusion and headaches. I was really considering moving, leaving the house and garden I love, to find a climate that was easier on my "disabilities". The leg pain had gotten so bad that by the end of the day it was agony to go upstairs to bed. The winters here are dull and dreary and this past winter I found it unbearably depressing.

I have food allergies (milk and wheat) and decided to look further into food problems and found your website. I didn't know anything about Salicylates but recognized quite a few symptoms and decided to try your program of eliminating them for two weeks. After four days the leg aches were gone and the rest of the symptoms were rapidly disappearing also. I added some back and fell right back into the dull, confused thinking and some leg pain.

I can't thank you enough, this discovery has restored my health, changed my whole attitude about life and kept me from making some seriously wrong decisions about my "old age". For you Sharla, Thanks Be To God."
