7 I have suffered from Pernicious Anemia for almost 12 years. I am the poster child for inflammation. A while back I had an accident where I herniated two discs in my back and dislocated my right hip. For 25 weeks I could not function without intense pain. I was simply at the end of my rope when a friend gave me a bottle of MonaVie⢠Activeâ˘. Within an hour, I noticed my hands were not as swollen. Over the first two days I pretty much finished the bottle and, amazingly, was pain and medication free! Praise God! â Emmy Lilholt, Wellington, Florida

11 C. Bagley (to B. Hart): Iâm Cindy Bagley and, oh, Iâm from Plano, Texas. And about, oh, eight months ago, I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis. . . . And, I was taking pain medication as well as other drugs two times a day. I was taking antiâinflammatory. And, my friend Lillian introduced me to this and within two days, I cut my pain medication in half. And at the end of the week, I stopped taking it completely and I haven't had it since. And my swelling has gone down much more than even when I was taking the antiâinflammatory which was fantastic, but what was even better is the rheumatoid arthritis made me very tired and I was crashing about one oâclock. And now, Iâm able to go the way I used to be âtil eight or nine oâclock at night. And, the other thing is in my first month I lost six pounds and Iâm very consistent in my weight. So, that was just another added benefit.

16 Steve Merritt: The second thing you want to know about the acai berry is that it is the number one antiâinflammatory fruit you could possibly take uh, and inflammation is the cause of most pain and disease. So, uh, who doesnât, who, anybody know someone who might have a back pain or knee pain that might want to feel better? Ok? A headache or two? Ah, think about it. Take a product, instead of taking uh, uh, an ibuprofen or, or, or a, a pharmaceutical drug you can take an allânatural product.

19 Brig: They came back home after hearing Dr. Schauss signs behind the product. Hearing motivational talks from the folks that understood why this business was doing what it was doing. The product was so backed up by people that gave testimony beyond anything that Iâve ever seen. Amputees that have no phantom pain; people whose cholesterol levels were balanced; children that were ADD were outward calm. People that were having symptoms that all of a sudden natural products doing something more for. The inflammation deal that Dr. Carson talks about. All of a sudden we are connected and realizing that now alls we have to do is plugâin.

20 Brig: I did not let Dallin know that I was going in for lower back cortisone shots. I had blew my back out, Iâm now 52 years young and been in the industry, been semiâretired for 7 years, hadn't used my back a whole lot so I was out doing some work on my property, blew my back out had to go to the doctor every day. I could not move, I was in tremendous pain. I had a Mondayââ Last Monday I had an appointment with a specialist to inject my back with cortisone because the pain was so great I could not stand on my feet for a few hours at a time, the pain brought tears to my eyes, a grown man crying. My wife called me a sissy but the cortisone shots would at least alleviate the pain and guess what I got the Active and guess what I took the Active 2 days straight, I was â like I said that Monday and like I said that was a Saturday, took, by Sunday I rolled out of bed and said hey, look 1 of 2 things just happened. God has either fully healed me or else Iâm so numb and I canât feel it that Iâm in big trouble, I probably hurt myself again. I did not suspect or even realize it was the Active that had done something. Now watch, I have been taking it now for the 2 weeks. I went in for my appointment, I did not get the cortisone shot, Iâm still on the Active. To test this theory I got off of it for 2 days I was traveling my back started hurting again, got right back home got on it, Iâm not taking the shot, just thought Iâd let you know that. Great job team, Dr. Carson, Dallin, you have done a wonderful job with this product. The belief of the product certainly helps us to take this message and the method in which weâre going to do it I am fully excited about because of the simplicity of the new generation binary.

The first meeting I went to with MonaVie was here in Knoxville and everybody was saying, âoh, 2 weeksâ and I think Ron was really a little perturbed and saying âwhatâs wrong with you you weird woman.â It took about 6 weeks and one day Iâm walking down the steps at my house and Iâm hollered: âHoney, come here look, honey, honey!â Like to scared him to death.

1 Lyons: Folks, also we have a doctor in the house. You wanna give them your best three minutes on MonaVie and come in here and share a little bit about it? Dr. Lou Niles.Dr. Lou Niles: Wow. Alright. Well, I gotta stand near you here. I am the guy you don't want to really know because I am the doctor of "last resort" it seems, and I am usually dealing with endâstage cancers. And, as you know, sugar is a food of cancer and so it's counterâindicative to give juice to cancer patients. So, I very reluctantly got involved in MonaVie. I only got involved in it when I realized there was something else going on in the combination of the juices that Dr. Carson put together. And it's more than just fruit juices â it's the combination that seems to be working. So, I have never lost a cancer patient yet â and so I threw this juice into the formula in the "protocol", and it has had a tremendous effect on everyone that I am involved with, and everybody that is involved with cancer is becoming a distributor by an "act of last resort" sort of, but they are all embracing the juice and it has really helped them through the healing process.There is a big story behind this â we don't have enough time tonight to go into it, but if you ever want to get a hold of me and talk about it, I can go through the specifics of why MonaVie works. It is a pretty amazing story. That's about it for three minutes.

You know Iâve been involved now for about 11 months and itâs just absolutely incredible the testimonials I know about and everything thatâs going on with this. It's getting a lot of exposure. And what makes Mona Vie so potent and so powerful, because a lot of people will say oh thereâs Acai out there you can buy in powder form, pill form and liquid form and you canââyou can go to GNC and a lot of these stores and you will find it. But what makes Monavie so special is first of all, it's a scientific blend, developed by a bunch of scientists and doctors. Three years in development stages the Company has been around now for a little over 2 years and its getting phenomenal ratings and everything thatâs going on but its helping people with arthritis, diabetes, cholesterol, high blood pressure, aches and pains, energy levels, sleeping, just numerous ailments out there and what it is doing for people and itâs just an awesome product over all and whatâs going on there."

Next level, Blue Diamond Executive â we had hit that level in 4â1/2 months â kind of got stuck there for a while. $2,500 a week or $500,000 a year. We just went to the next level here recently so we were stuck at blue from 4â1/2 months to 10 months. It wasn't a bad place to be stuck because we make anywhere, at that time, we were making in between $7 to $12,000 per week. Again, when I tell you the money I'm not bragging to you, I'm just letting you know. It almost doesn't seem real, but it is. So, just the last few months, we went to Black Diamond, making anywhere from $14 to $16,000 per week â that's what we are now, Black Diamonds in the business, the cool thing is â last Friday night, delivered a brand new Mercedes to our house. Anybody that hits a level of Black Diamond â you will get a brand new Mercedes â that's part of the same. So that's pretty awesome."

He called me every day to tell me about juice. I said, I've got no interest in juice, my life's too busy; thank you very much. He kept calling and calling. After about three weeks, he went out and he got a new cell phone. (The God's honest truth.) He called me up and I looked at the number and didn't know. And I answered the phone, and he goes "I got ya." And I go, oh listen, here's the $39 bucks, here's my credit card, just send the freakin' crap to my houseââI'll start drinking. Well I drank it for 5 days and I didn't sleep a wink. I'd been up over a hundred hours and I said, I don't think I can drink this juice any more. On the sixth day I slept like I was in a coma and I got up and I had this great R.E.M. sleep and was like, oh, this is alright, I feel pretty good. I drank it on the eighth day, I noticed that I had injured my left elbow about 5 years ago lifting weights and I had torn a tendon off and I've had tremendous pain and I even looked at surgery and alternatives. I end up buying a prosthetic cast that I wore for six months and that helped to ease a lot of the pain but I was still, had always had it â after the eighth day, that quit entirely. The tenth dayââI'd had a foot surgery 2 years ago and that even quit bothering me so you know I was hooked at that point. I was a skeptic about the business and, you know, now I'm in it basically four weeks. Uh, have about 30 people in it. I've made about $600 in my first two weeks, so you know, I'm hoping to get my goal, to get to $1,000 a week in a relatively short period of time.

8 Jason Lyons: "So, make a long story short, got my Mom on the juice. She got arthritis, suffers from it in her hands pretty bad. Every morning she wakes up her hands are stiff and everything else. Well, 3 days after her being on this product I get a phone call. Iâm up in Ocowa sheâs like Jason I donât know whatâs in this stuff, so the first thing you think is: oh my Gosh, she must have broke out in a rash or something. I didnât even let her finish. She goes, "This is absolutely incredible." I said, "Whatâs up?" She goes, "I suffer with arthritis everyday when I wake up in the morning." She goes, "I woke up this morning and my hands donât hurt no more."

9 Jason Lyons: "Iâm like really, you know youâve heard this but donât really believe it until you get something that hits home. So, come to find out, and what most people donât realize: inflammation is the stem of most problems with our body and most diseases. Inflammation in your heart is heart disease. Inflammation of the lungs is asthma. Inflammation in your joints is arthritis. So ,when you put an antiâinflammatoryââand this has such high antiâinflammatories in your bodyââyour body tends to react. Now, it affects everybody differently. Thereâs all kinds of personal testimonies out there of whatâs going on, but it tended â it helped her big time right away. Now, some people arenât going to feel a response that fast. If youâre a healthy person you might not feel a response at all but itâs a wellness product. Youâre putting a good thing into your body so it's helping you regardless, but people with ailments tend to feel a lot of results very quick."

10 Jason Lyons: "But the next best thing to happen ,and why I know this product's real...the most incredible testimony...one of my best friends Brian Thayer, Brian and Jackie ThayerââBlue Diamonds in the business, rolling with it. One of my best friends; not only has it changed his financial status, but also the health of their daughterââbig time. He has 4 little daughters: Keely, Kylie, Karly and Kayla. Well Keely at 3 years old was diagnosed as a Type 1 Diabetic, which is terrible. Thatâs the worst diabetes you can have. It usually doesnât happen until later in life, but Type 1 diabetic means your pancreas produces no insulin at all. She got this at 3 years old. Well sheâs been going through this, sheâs 5 now, when we got involved, been taking 4 to 5 insulin shots daily, her sugar levels (now Iâm not a doctor, Iâm a landscaper, so I donât know the exact numbers) but they were running in the high 4 hundreds, 450, 500, taking shots constantly and everything else. So, sheâs used to taking 4 to 5 shots a day. For a little kid, thatâs terrible, you hate to see it. Well, 10 months ago, 11 months ago when we got in we got her on the product. Thereâs active and thereâs original. The only difference is the Active has added glucosamine and celadrine, which is good for your joints, muscles, kind of lubes you up and that's what makes you feel good. Um, pretty much everybody drinks the Active, except children 12 and under and pregnant or nursing women. So we got her on the original. Jackie, her mother, she goes to St. Mark's Catholic School over there. Every day the teacher would test her with a little tester, call Jackie up and say hey you know this is her numbers. Jackie would have to go in and give her her daily shot and everything else. Well after 4 or so weeks of being on this product, teacher calls up and says hey, her numbers are down. Jackieâs like, wow thatâs odd, you know, cause she didnât really realize whatâs happening. Well this went on for a few days. Jackie would go in and sure enough her numbers were fine, she didnât have to give her her shot. To make a long story short, the juice helped her. Her numbers went from in the high 4âs down to 150 to 200âs. The best thing about this, she went from 4 to 5 insulin shots daily to 2. Itâs pretty much held stable ever since. Weâve been involved 11 months now, so to see a little girl go from 4 to 5 shots a day down to 2, thatâs all worth it in itself."

You know Iâve been involved now for about 11 months and itâs just absolutely incredible the testimonials I know about and everything thatâs going on with this and what makes Mona Vie so potent and so powerful, because a lot of people will say oh thereâs Acai out there you can buy in powder form, pill form and liquid form and you can. . . .
