"I am an 82 year old greatgrandmother. My daughter got involved with this product and she assured me that it could only help. I have been on HMS-90 (Immunocal) for 2 years now. It started with a severe sunburn on one of my arms that became an open sore and just would not heal. I had it over a year.

I am very small (4ft 6") and started with 1/2 a pouch a day. Finally I got talked into taking at least one full pouch. I like it just in water and then I add a lottle fruit sirup for taste. It took about 4 weeks but then I realized that the sore was starting to close. About 6 months along it was just a spot that looked a bit darker. I was so thankful as it was scaring me. The doctor had no answers except Cortisone cream.

At the same time I felt energy like I had not had for some time. I am a very active person, but major surgery in 1997 had knocked the wind right out of me and I was not able to get it back. HMS90 definitely made a difference.

This year I had another experience. Due to a medical accident in the early 90's I was now fighting with a prolapsed colon. At my age no surgeons really wanted to tackle this. So I went to Toronto. Because of my persistence a specialist took a closer look. Although I registered as having had a silent heart attack sometime ago, he decided that all my vital signs indicated that I was a very healthy person. He also decided that he would do the major corrective surgery: through the belley cradle the colon in a netting that was subsequently fastened to the tailbone.

I had been on 2 pouches of HMS90 at least 3 weeks before and came through surgery with hardly any bleeding. Although they wanted to keep me originally 10 days, they let me out in 5. This was at the end of March and now I am fit as a fiddle. OK, I can't run like a 20 year-old, but I'm not far behind!"

Sincerely,

Joan Tantzen
