The Rip Van Winkle Effect

For the past decade or longer I have struggled with unbelievable exhaustion. My doctors would reply," Oh, you feel tired a lot." "No! I cannot seem to function throughout my daily life from the unbelievable exhaustion. Over the years I have tried many different medications to help combat the fatigue. Nothing worked as well as when I was prescribed Dexedrine (which is a form of speed). But after speaking with a new doctor that is managing my meds, he quickly made me swear to never take that prescription again. He compared it to a street drug (even though it was being prescribed to me.

Well, over a month ago I was given the Max GXL to try. I didn't expect much at first, just really anticipated the detox most. But by the grace of God.... I felt myself waking up at a normal hour in the morning and being productive throughout the day. This is something in a good ten years I haven't experienced. I was depressed by this as well. What point was there in life if you cannot even get up long enough to be active in your own life. I began to feel that I was losing a major portion of myself. The fatigue interferred with all areas of my life and even led to me having to .cancel last minute plans or get togethers.

Here it is one month following me taking Max GXL and I cannot believe how much more energy I have! It is so wonderful. I go to sleep at a somewhat normal time and find myself waking up between 6:30 and 7:00 every morning, something that was completely unheard of before. I don't return to bed, I get up and get dressed head to toe, and keep myself active. The only way I can describe how I feel now vs. then is "The Rip Van Winkle Effect". I feel like I have suddenly woke up from a long, long sleep. It feels wonderful!

Thanks to the Max GXL my energy level has gone up at least 200%. I checked with my doctor and he found no drug interactions from it, he said that it would really increase my energy, help me lose weight and help my immune system. My top three items that I wished forever that could be relieved.

MS Definition and My Personal Symptoms

Multiple sclerosis (or MS) is a chronic, often disabling disease that attacks the central nervous system (CNS), which is made up of the brain, spinal cord, and optic nerves. Symptoms may be mild, such as numbness in the limbs, or severe, such as paralysis or loss of vision. The progress, severity, and specific symptoms of MS are unpredictable and vary from one person to another.

My symptoms began in 1991 with dizziness and vertigo. Over the years I have struggled with severe muscle/joint pain, chronic insomnia, along with relentless and severe fatigue. From time to time I have also struggled with memory problems, numbness and tingling, loss of feeling in my fingers, toes and portions of my face. Sometimes, the symptoms would last only temporarily and other symptoms like numbness in my fingers, toes and face have not disappeared.




I have struggled with quality of life especially due to the vicious cycle of extreme exhaustion and fatigue. It never made things better for my energy level to have to take strong narcotic medication to deal with the tremendous pain. It is very depressing to never feel that you have enough energy to get up and live your life as others do so easily.



Another aspect of my MS that I've had to deal with, as anyone with MS does, are the exacerbations. In previous years, during an MS attack I would be admitted to the hospital for five days to receive Solu-Medrol by IV drip. But luckily, in the past three years I have been able to have a home nurse come and administer the IV drip for a few hours each night. This made it possible to stay home with limited disruptions in our daily life. During the exacerbations I would usually in bed for weeks at a time. Walking would be nearly impossible without assistance, I could not write without uncontrollable shaking, my vision would be blurred, my thoughts would be clouded. My exacerbations tend to happen two to three times per year and last usually about a month to month and a half. Again, as I have mentioned the vicious cycle of dealing with this disease is taxing not only on myself, but also my family.



All of these symptoms listed have been prior to taking MaxGXL. At the time of this posting I am approximately two weeks into my trial of the product.

Hesitant but Hopeful

Hesitant but Hopeful
I have had relapsing remitting Multiple Sclerosis for nearly eighteen years. I have tried dozens and dozens of medications, listened to many people offer their kind advice about how to deal with my condition, and nothing really ever completely alleviated the symptoms. I will make myself clear right from the start MaxGXL does not claim to be a cure for Multiple Sclerosis.

I was introduced to the MaxGXL from some very dear friends of mine, that do not have any serious health issues that they are dealing with now, but have themselves seen a noticeable difference in their only daily well being. I listened to them share about the increased energy, the difference with a minor lingering liver problem, and the many ways that glutathione works to benefit the body on a mitochondrial or cellular level. After nearly eighteen years of dealing with my chronic health conditions I was very hesitant to try anything new. At the moment I am currently on medications to deal with chronic/severe muscle and nerve pain, insomnia, and organic depression (a depression that occurs from a chronic illness). My friend continued to speak of MaxGXL and told me about the research that has been done and the results from the studies.... all pointing to the benefits of MaxGXL.

I left that night with my husband and two weeks worth of MaxGXL to try. My personal purpose for this blog is to share with those who also struggle with MS my journey with MaxGXL. As I mentioned, I am hesitant but also very hopeful that the benefits of glutathione will help alleviate my symptoms and improve my quality of life.
