The Testimony of Janet Pauly, R.N.

Janet Pauly, R.N.

"I sometimes get telephone calls from people to see if I'm still alive.

I'm very happy to report that I'm indeed alive, but probably wouldn't be if not for the Lord and BarleyLife.

I thought if I ate three well balanced meals a day, I got all the nutrients I needed, so I didn't need to supplement.

I thought people who took supplements were gullible and naive. They were enriching the pockets of supplement manufacturers and passing expensive urine.

I first heard the term 'expensive urine' in nursing school. Coming from a medical background can be a distinct handicap, when dealing with simple concepts like food and nutrition.

I could assist the doctor in inserting a catheter into a patient's heart and inflate the balloon every two hours to get the end-diastolic pressure reading. But I didn't know vegetable oils were bad for you and leaving them out of the refrigerator made them even worse.

Why didn't I learn that in nutrition class?

Because they didn't teach that in nutrition class.

But I did learn about expensive urine in nutrition class.

I fed my family as healthfully as I knew how. We had whole grain cereals every morning for breakfast and we all love vegetables and salads.

I had introduced a variety of vegetables to my kids when they were babies, so they grew up liking vegetables. They were not picky eaters. We were a healthy family.

I prided myself on never missing a day's work. In fact, I filled in for the other nurses when they were home sick with colds and the flu.

Once I worked twenty-one days straight in the intensive care unit. I felt pretty invincible.

Now when people tell me they're healthy and they don't need BarleyLife, I can sympathize with their lack of understanding and tell them, I too once felt that way.

In 1979 the fabric of our family's life began to unravel.

We were told our youngest son was seriously mentally ill. Then our sixteen-year-old daughter was diagnosed with ulcerative colitis. A few months later, during surgery, I found out I had wide-spread cancer.

For the next four years, our lives went from bad to worse.

My son's mental illness was progressing and managing him at home was extremely difficult. We sent our daughter away to boarding school because of the chaos at home with her brother's illness. I was constantly concerned about her health.

I had two other children in college with their share of life's ups and downs.

In the meantime, my husband had developed a rather severe case of prostatitis that twice put him in the hospital.

His urologist told him there was nothing to be done for prostatitis. It was simply something that happened to men as they got older.

The urologist said he had it himself and there was nothing to do except take hot sitz baths when the painful flare-ups occurred.

The reason I'm sharing this with you is so you'll have some idea of the life-changing impact BarleyLife had on our lives.

Because lymphoma was not considered operable, all they did was take biopsies of the different tumors. The doctor marked each tumor with a metal clip, so it would show up on X-ray.

I was sent to the University of Texas cancer treatment center in Houston. There they decided to give me radiation treatments for two months. At the end of that time, to the great surprise of the doctor, the tumors were gone.

He had told me in the beginning I had an incurable form of cancer. After the tumors were gone, he cautioned me not to get my hopes up. He said, "This will be back."

Of course, I did get my hopes up. I went back to work and was feeling just fine.

Six months later, I relapsed.

I got a lump in my neck. The lymphoma was back.

They wanted to radiate my neck. By then I had discovered I'd incurred bone marrow depression, secondary to the radiation. I felt I'd at least like to save the radiation as a last-resort treatment.

All my blood components were low. I was anemic. My white count, red count, and platelets were low. They told me this was damage that couldn't be fixed.

I felt it was a fair trade-off to be rid of my tumors. However, I knew more radiation could possibly drop my counts enough to be life-threatening, so I declined further radiation.

I began to look around at treatments that, previous to that time, I would have considered quackery.

It's amazing how broad-minded you get when it's your life that's at stake.

By 1984, we had exhausted every possibility.

In June of 1984, things were not looking good for me.

This was the state of things when a friend of mine in California wrote to me. She had sent me a little sandwich bag with some green powder in it.

I began taking the green powder on July 16, 1984.

A little over four months later, my tumors were gone.

My blood counts, which had been abnormal for four years, returned to normal.

I believe BarleyLife was an answer to prayer for me. I thank God every day of my life for sending BarleyLife to me.

I've been taking BarleyLife for over ten years now, and it has changed my life in many ways. The most important way is that I'm still alive.

BarleyLife is not a supplement, but a food concentrate.

No one can say what BarleyLife will do for you. But if you don't try it, you'll never know what it might do for you.
