Almost Dead

When my husband got his wife back in June of 2007, I also got my husband back. You see when I was in bed sick over 80% of my day for over 4 years and taking almost a dozen prescription medications just to function, he was laying around much of his day too.

This is his testimonial. It’s even in his words.

“Between July, 2005 and October of 2006 I had 3 major surgeries and I almost died. I am a union electrician and even though I was not physically ready I returned to work in January of 2007.

My job consists of climbing ladders, crawling in attics and under houses and sometimes extreme physical labor. I didn’t have much energy and I rarely did anything after work and on weekends but rest. I was introduced to an all natural supplement called MaxGXL in June of 2007 and began to feel results positively within the first week. Not only is my energy level back but I also have noticed I sleep better and wake up easily with no morning fog no matter how late I stay up! My knees and legs used to get tired and would hurt by the end of the workday. I even thought that I needed new work boots but since taking MaxGXL I can work longer and still come home and enjoy my evenings and weekends and I still wear the same pair of work boots!”

He doesn’t say it here but his colon had perforated and his body was toxic. He woke up after 10 days in the hospital with a temporary colostomy. The next surgery was to reverse the colostomy and the last one was to repair multiple hernias in the incision site.

You see he thought he was fine. The truth is he hadn’t been fine for some time. He had little pockets in his colon that collected food and then one day the infection that had set up went through the colon wall thus leaking out the contents into his stomach cavity.


The moral of this story is that it’s never too late to start taking an active role in your health. By active I don’t mean just doing a bit of exercising here and a bit there and oh maybe watching what you eat sometimes. I mean taking an ACTIVE role in your health. Be diligent about it. We only get one life. If you don’t take care of it …………who will?
