• Trouble Sleeping and Lack of Energy

  ---

  I first came to Dr. Rob and Alternacare because I was having trouble sleeping through the night, which resulted in extremely low energy throughout the day. Dr. Rob came highly recommended from a friend of my wife’s, so with my wife urging, I decided to become a patient. From the initial tests and various examinations, I started taking the specific nutritional supplements recommended by Dr. Rob with the goal of getting a good night sleep. My results were not immediate, as the body takes time to repair itself, but after months my sleep improved and my energy is better. Through it all Dr. Rob was determined to find the best solution that would work for me.

  The entire staff was always helpful and courteous throughout this journey.
  Thanks to everyone.

• Weight, Sleep, Food Cravings, Energy, Mucous Drainage, Bloating, Swollen Ankles, Migraines.Life was just uncomfortable for me.

  ---

  When I first came to Alternacare I was tired, overweight, couldn’t sleep well, had food cravings, had very low energy, I could get out of breath easily. Life was just very uncomfortable for me. I also was bloated and had swollen ankles.
  Since beginning my appointments about three months ago I’ve lost weight, I started at two hundred and twenty-six pounds and now I am at two hundred and eight pounds. I no longer have swollen ankles or bloating. The severe mucous and drainage has stopped. The migraines I used to get are very rare. Now a good night’s rest is no longer a stranger to me. My energy level has increased tremendously, to the point where an afternoon nap is no longer necessary. Light exercise is something to look forward to rather than something that drained what little energy I had. Food cravings are gone. I’m feeling like a new person who enjoys eating, living and has general sense of well-being.
  I am so grateful to Dr. Poli and the people at Alternacare. I am most grateful that I chose to come to Alternacare. Thank you everyone!

• Sinuses, Energy, Indigestion and Weight

  ---

  When I first came to Alternacare I was really tired, I hurt all over, I was weepy and fatalistic and simply depressed. I was sleeping every afternoon for two or three hours. I couldn’t grasp a glass and set it back down, I couldn’t even go upstairs in our home. Even doing the laundry wore me out. I would have to sleep for two hours after I did the laundry. My shoulders hurt so bad I couldn’t move my head from side to side or reach for something high. My elbows felt as if they had tendinitis. I had indigestion/reflux all the time and slept sitting up against pillows. My face-sinuses hurt all the time and I was hooked on sinus nose spray.
  Now I am ME Again! The only time my hip hurts is at the end of a very long day, but it is not nearly as intense as it was. My energy is improving and I have also lost forty-three pounds and can wear all my old clothes again!

• High Cholesterol

  ---

  For the past 15 years i have been trying to get my cholesterol in a normal range…

  it has never been below 245. My last results 2/18/08 my cholesterol was 290.

  I tried everything natural from health food stores and nothing worked. My doctor

  pleaded with me to take lipator, but i still refused to take that poison.

  I went to Dr. Debease in May as my last resort. After just 1 month I went back for

  another cholesterol check, and to my surprise my choleserol dropped an ammazing 99 points….In just 1 month….My total cholesterol was just 191..What a relief…

• High Blood Pressure and Fibromyalgia

  ---

  

   

   

   

   

   

  When I found Alternacare, I had been battling extremely high blood pressure (225/125) for approximately six months. I recently had an allergic reaction to several blood pressure medications, which put me in the hospital. I was fearful that I might have a stroke, both of my parents died of strokes. I also suffer from fibromyalgia and because of the allergic reactions to the blood pressure medications, I had severe FM flare ups.
  Over the eight years, since being diagnosed with FM, I have gained 30 LBS. I have been unable to exercise, unable to lose weight, have had restless sleep, suffer severe pain nearly 24 hours a day and 7 days a week. Most of all, I was unsuccessful in lowering my blood pressure.
  I have been coming to Alternacare for 6 weeks. My BP is down to 143/88! I have begun exercising every other day, walking 1.5 miles at 3 mph on a treadmill. I am swimming and doing stretching exercises in the pool at my gym. I am sleeping restfully nearly every night. I have stayed on the Liver Enhancement Diet successfully and have lots more energy and very little pain!
  I am very grateful for this nutritional-holistic healing.
  Dr. Poli, Nola, and Dr. Rob, Pam, and the girls- Thank you for everything!

• Diabetes, Weight, Headaches, Ringing Ears – Tabilah Ojore

  ---

  

   

   

   

   

   

  I suffered for years with sleeping problems. I used to wake up daily @ 3 AM. On top of that, I suffered with achy-ness all over, and stayed fatigued all the time. I had enough energy to go to work and that was it!
  I also suffered with heart palpitations and had very little motion in my arms.
  If this wasn’t enough, I have been diagnosed as a diabetic, along with having high blood pressure and high cholesterol. I felt like my body was in a constant state of stress, not to mention being overweight.
  I had been seeing my primary doctors to address the issues, but all they would do is give me medication.
  After seeing the flyer in the paper I decided to give Alternacare a try. One month after beginning treatment, I started seeing great results! I am now sleeping through the night, therefore I am no longer fatigued, all of my pain is gone, my diabetes medications have been cut down, my A1C went from 9 to 7(good is under 8), my blood pressure went down, I was taken off my cholesterol medications, and the ringing in my ears is almost completely gone.
  On top of all this, I went down in my pants size, which I struggled with my weight for the last 4 years!
  Everyone has noticed a tremendous difference in me! I feel great!

• Insomnia, Weight – Diane Neely

  ---

  

   

   

   

   

   

   

   

  I’ve been an insomniac for 30 years. I never slept through the night, always up at 2 AM, staying up doing laundry, writing emails, and I was reading 10 books a week! On top of that problem, I was never able to lose weight and keep it off. I tried taking Phentermine drugs, and I lost weight, but as soon as I quit taking it, the weight came back.

  The day after I started going to Alternacare, “I slept through the night, like a baby!” Now, it has been 2 weeks that I have been seeing Dr. Rob and I have so much energy, sleeping through the night and I already lost 10 pounds and still have more to go!

• Bloating, Weight Gain, Depression, Sleep Problems – Linda Mullins

  ---

  

   

   

   

   

   

   

  I have been suffering with depression for almost 10 years, but has gotten progressively worse in the last 2 to 3 years.
  Also, I have been experiencing stomach problems, such as bloating and constipation, along with sleeping troubles. I would sleep no more than 2 hours of sleep per night!
  I generally just felt bad, and I always felt like I was dragging myself around. It made it hard to even go to work.. I had tried four different anti-depressants, sleep aids, anti-inflammatories, and muscle relaxers, and nothing has helped.
  However, within 3 to 4 weeks of going to Alternacare, I am now sleeping 6 to 7 hours/night, I use the bathroom 2 to 3 times, DAILY, no more bloated feeling, I’ve lost around 8 lbs and overall I feel much better!

• Extreme Fatigue and Back Pain – Karen Marlow

  ---

  

   

   

   

   

   

  For the past 3 years I’ve suffered with severe back pain. On certain times of the month I couldn’t get out of bed! I had unexplainable fatigue. I had horrible periods so heavy and irregular, my hormones were crazy! On top of all that, I was losing my hair and growing facial hair. I was having to shave my face all the time!
  I had been to 7 different doctors to find out what was wrong; gynecologist, orthopedist, rheumatologist, dermatologist, endocrinologist, gastroenterologist, and my primary care doctor. No one could tell me what was wrong. I left with prescriptions for anti-depressants, which I refused to take, birth control, I’ve had my tubes tied 12 years ago, pain pills and anything over the counter.
  My husband got tired of me complaining all the time and called Alternacare Holistic Wellness Center. I saw 2 doctors, one for my hormones and one for my pain.
  Dr. Rob diagnosed me with high testosterone before I ever mentioned to him anything about my hormones! He found I have a metal toxicity, along with several other things going on! I knew right away I was at the right place! Dr. Mike handled my pain within 3 visits! I can get out of bed and function like a normal person again! I’m not losing my hair anymore or growing any more on my face! I can now enjoy life and my kids! You guys are amazing!
