Carmel 's Story: Diverticulitis

In early April of 2008 I began having lower left abdominal pain that was so severe that my quality
of life was destroyed. Mother's Day, my birthday, my kids' birthdays and summer vacation were
ruined as it continued for months through June. Doctors and specialists gave me course after
course of antibiotics for this "Diverticulitis" which only helped temporarily and I was told at age
42, that I would have to have surgery to take out a section of my colon if it kept persisting.

This was unthinkable to me as I am a health nut, exercising individual (I taught aerobics and was
a personal trainer for 11 years before kids), I ate and grew my own healthy high fiber organic
foods and my friends all teased me about my obsession with health yet this awful condition was
ruining my life. I dislike most western medicine and believe in root causes and prevention, not
damage control, so I found Russell Mariani on the internet. Everything he said made sense and
lined up with my beliefs so I chose to follow his plan and coaching.

I was leaving that first day of my program on a trip in terrible pain and was so frustrated that my
husband's and my first trip away without kids in over a year, was going to be one of pain and
discomfort. I also had not slept in six days from the pain. I was run down and exhausted.

By the end of the second day of our trip on Russell's protocol, the "fire went out" as he predicted
it would. I even slept a full 9 hours that night and began to enjoy my trip with my husband. Each
day I got better and better and the inflammation and pain disappeared.

It has been two weeks now and I am getting my life back. I am pain free. I cannot wait to share my
results and victory over this condition with my doctors and several friends of mine who have
been suffering with other digestive illnesses like Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn's Disease.

God bless Russell Mariani!
