I used to have back pain, and in fact had two spinal injections for them. They wore off in six months, and the pain returned. I started taking this liquid nutrition almost three years ago, and I never did have to go back for that 3rd injection. It doesn't hurt anymore. I can tell you many other people that have had relief, one being my friend who does Zumba and tap with me now. It is liquid, is proven to be 97% absorbable and as the body gets the nurtition needed, it just starts healing itself. It goes after the inflammation, and a side effect of inflammation in the body is weight gain and disease. I learned that from the many doctors on this product. Since there is a 30 day empty bottle guarantee, it is risk free. Please write and let me tell you how you can get it. It comes to your door by UPS. Also, in two weeks, they are coming out with a natural sleep aid with one ounce of this nutrition in it. They couldn't put daily dose of two ounces in the sleep aid, for it would give you energy. You need sleep, and 70% studies on MSN last week told me don't sleep well, resulting also in weight gain and diseases. I have pre ordered it for my husband and me so we can get it sooner than those waiting. Those having tried it, say that you can tell in one night the difference a great sleep makes. They say they wake up alert and eager to start the day, and they don't get that 2:00 slump. Here is my email if I can be of help to you. Trust me, I understand back pain. What a relief to have not had it in three years! ____@____.com A.
