| Our Limu story is a natural result of many years of paying attention to nutrition as a means of minimizing the need for medical intervention. We've had both excellent medical care and care that has left much to be desired, and find it preferable to do what we can independently in order to avoid unnecessary doctoring, instead using the medical system as judiciously as possible. This is more difficult than it sounds when there are medical problems involved, but overall we've managed to keep a simple and reasonably comfortable life. We rarely contract contagious illnesses, although this was not the case for my husband prior to his beginning taking supplementation that I had taken for many years. About 3 years ago, I began researching Original Limu, both the product and the way it is marketed - but my primary aim was to get a product that might have a positive effect on my long-standing medical conditions. I discovered that there was information on fucoidan (enter "fucoidan" in the search box), an ingredient of note in Original Limu, but since I am not a scientist or chemist, my understanding of that information was limited. It was enough to get me to try the product so that I could get the information that matters most to me - experience with using the product. This ultimately led to my becoming a distributor, since I need to acquire Original Limu regularly for this household, and it is the most efficient way for me to do so. "Nothing else comes close" is the caption on the above picture of a bottle of Original Limu, and I find that true from my own experience. Simplicity, frugality and efficiency have always been important to me, and during my research I sought to find a less expensive product - a 'generic', so to speak. I found no such thing. Sometimes you just have to get the best, which in this case is the one and only Original Limu. You may visit our main page here. On the science of healing...the culture we live in influences our thinking very much, and we don't even realize it. We accept what we have been indoctrinated with, without question and even though it is contrary to what we can see to be true. Medicine provides good results sometimes. We accept that it also causes allergic reactions, surgical complications, and death from certain diseases even with the best medical care. Expectations of the medical profession are actually very low, and when something happens like, "the operation was a success, but the patient died", people just shrug it off and pay the bill. When considering the success rate of the medical profession, we may wonder how many doctor visits and how many tests it takes for an accurate diagnosis, but there are so many variables. And the measure of success is subject to interpretation as well - one could say that when that diagnosis comes after 30 visits and multiple tests, that success has been achieved. One could especially say that if he is aware of an entire lack of accurate diagnosis for much longer. Many people disregard alternative healing practices and attack those who practice them as though they are fraudulent. It's harder to measure the effectiveness of prayer or spiritual means of healing, because it is not standard medicine. And sometimes when results do come, they are not recognized or are dismissed as a freak occurrence - something we certainly shouldn't expect. It seems easier to dismiss a spiritual healer than a physician, because we've been conditioned to believe in medical science, and to consider the spiritual healer a quack. Spiritual healers seem to be held to a much higher standard, and unlike doctors, have a whole lot to prove. I think there's something wrong with this. I don't automatically exclude either method as invalid, and believe each has its place. But when a patient has to return to a doctor numerous times for an accurate diagnosis, to get a replacement prescription for a drug he is allergic to, or for unsuccessful treatment of a disease for the last days of his life, people rarely do any questioning and the doctor and his industry still get paid. And as far as I can see, those are everyday events in the medical industry and not anything unusual. The medical profession has changed drastically over time, from a noble profession that acknowledged a higher spiritual power, to an industry saturated with marketing where the higher power is carnal. We are free to consider alternative methods of healing a myth or a reality, and we are each free to designate what constitutes "proof" to us. What is proof to me may well be meaningless to you, and vice versa. Larry Dossey has done a great deal of work in getting people to be aware of the connection between prayer and healing, referring to scientific studies on the effectiveness of prayer.
