ImmunoCare and Immunomax for Fibromyalgia and Chronic Fatigue Syndrome: Real Hope for a Cure
ImmunoCare and Immunomax are highly potent, quantifiably effective, all natural immunostimulating treatments for immune deficient conditions such as chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) and fibromyalgia (FMG). These treatments are composed of high intensity antiviral, antimicrobial, and immunostimulant organic extracts which are clinically proven to eradicate the pathogens associated with the root cause of CFS and FMG, which are commonly triggered by the Epstein Barr virus (EBV) and infectious microbes.
Evidence of the demonstrated antiviral effect of ImmunoCare against EBV is established in a published medical study from the Graduate Institute of Pharmacognosy Science, Taipei Medical College, Taiwan. This test quantified the active components in ImmunoCare completely inhibit the Epstein Barr virus without causing damage to the host cell.
Independent clinical studies further establish the ingredients in ImmunoCare, used in conjunction with topical application of Immunomax, demonstrate that CFS and FMG are reversible, representing real hope for lifetime control of the condition, or cure. Published medical studies establish that the extracts in ImmunoCare and Immunomax exhibit powerful activity against a wide spectrum of viral and bacterial pathogens, including those associated with the cause of FMG and CFS.
Success of the active components in ImmunoCare and Immunomax in reversing CFS and FMG is a direct result of the treatments attacking and inhibiting the actual cause of these conditions, which many in the medical and scientific community have identified to be molecular and caused by invading pathogens.
Medicine is placing more and more trust and value in organic plant-derived medicinal extracts for specific health conditions. There is a long history in the US of physicians providing plant extracts and essential oils orally to their patients prior to the advent of pharmaceuticals. The organic and therapeutic grade essential oils in ImmunoCare are listed in the 8th edition of the Useful Drugs, a handbook published by the American Medical Association in 1930.

ABOUT FMG AND CFS
Although there are varied theories as to the cause of these conditions, it is now believed to be accredited to a viral infection compounded by a compromised immune system. It is no surprise therefore that CFS is clinically referred to as post-viral fatigue syndrome, myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME), and immune dysfunction syndrome. Debate remains if there is a specific disease, or syndrome called CFS and FMG. Experience suggests that nearly all the sufferers have been regular medical drug takers, particularly antibiotics (literal translation being "against life") and or the oral contraceptive pill, both of which are known to undermine the immune system.
FMG is one of the most common causes of pain seen by health practitioners and is estimated to afflict up to 6 million Americans. There are so many similarities between FMG and CFS that many physicians now believe the two diagnoses are interchangeable.
Fibromyalgia means pain in the muscles, ligaments and tendons. Similar to CFS, FMG is typically triggered by a virus. Associated symptoms resemble those experienced by CFS however, patients and doctors call it Fibromyalgia because there is more pain associated with the fatigue. Just like in CFS, FMG seems to have an autoimmune component, and because most clinicians ignore this in both conditions, they often fail to cure the disease and simply treat the symptoms.
Patients with FMG and CFS have widespread pain for more than 3 months. These patients also indicate problem suffering from extreme fatigue, insomnia, depression, and frequent fluid retention in the morning.
Of those diagnosed with FMG, up to 90% are female and approximately 95% of those females are Caucasian. Awakening statistics worthy of independent investigation.
In treating FMG and CFS, individualized treatment and general support of the immune functions is paramount. Our methodology of treatment is to repair immune function and eliminate infectious viral pathogens as the first step towards reversing the condition. Diet and supplementation are very important adjuncts and play a critical role in revitalization.
In addition, scientific evidence is now emerging that CFS and FMG may result from unusual infectious microorganisms that are not detected by the typical lab tests. Sophisticated tests such as polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests can, however, detect these pathogens. Peer reviewed medical tests now confirm the existence that these microorganisms usually afflict those diagnosed with FMG and CFS.
There are often several microorganisms associated with the same syndrome and have to be eliminated before recovery can be expected. These pathogens are a tremendous burden on the immune system, draining its resources, wearing the immune system down over time and making the inflicted person with a general feeling of malaise. Simultaneously eradicating these infectious agents from the body, while providing adequate immune system support, will greatly facilitate recovery for those suffering from these profoundly debilitating illnesses.
For example, in a recent scientific study by Drs. Chaney and Bell, it was found that CFS sufferers have a very high level of interleukin 2 in their blood. Those people who have high levels of interleukin 2 suffer from disease causing pathogens. Interleukin 2 sole function of the body is to stimulate disease ridding T Cells, signaling the body that it has been infected with an invading pathogen.
A common source of stress and chronic immune deficient conditions creating FMG and CFS is systemic infection. The more severe the infection, the more acute the symptoms, or the longer it lasts. Immune deficiency can occur after just one singe episode of a particularly nasty infection, or can occur over time as the immune system is gradually compromised by prolonged or recurrent infections. If there are other psychological stresses from an unhappy relationship, poor dietary habits, or stress on the job, the symptoms are magnified and weakening of the immune system accelerated. As the immune system weakens, it lays the foundation for other seemingly unrelated conditions such as FMG or CFS.
In Medical Aromatherapy, Dr. Kurt Schnaubelt, notes that strong immunostimulant organic plant extracts and essential oils found in ImmunoCare, "represent the most consistent and successful treatment for CFS, FMG, and other auto immune irregularities and address the problem at all levels."
Of significance, the components in ImmunoCare have "an antidepressant-like activity" as published by the Keio University School of Medicine, Tokyo. This highly beneficial therapeutic activity can bring further relief to CFS and FMG sufferers as the majority experience moderate to severe depression and active compounds in ImmunoCare have demonstrated anti depressant properties.
The biological activity of ImmunoCare and Immunomax to eradicate viruses and microorganisms commonly triggering FMG and CFS is indisputable. These treatments help to safely eliminate pathogens causing immune deficiency conditions resulting in FMG and CFS. ImmunoCare represents a strong immunostimulant supplement comprised of organic extracts, which when taken with topical application of Immunomax, demonstrate success in bringing the system back to health when the immune system is greatly compromised.

ImmunoMax and ImmunoMax Suppressive Therapy: Treating immune deficiency, acute fatigue and respiratory ailments
In CFS and FMG the immune system is greatly weakened, facilitating pathogenic material to infect the mucus of the respiratory tract, especially around the lungs. As a result, it is important to cleanse the respiratory tissue and system of infectious material when treating CFS and FMG. This will help restore energy levels.
Extensive research and clinical trials have proven the organic and therapeutic grade essential oils concentrated in Immunomax are highly effective to safely eliminate respiratory ailments and strengthen overall immune parameters. Immunomax is a powerful topical balm comprised of pure antimicrobial and antiviral extracts with mucolytic properties. As a result, Immunomax has the demonstrated ability to quickly and safely achieve total clearance of respiratory ailments and to eradicate viral and bacterial pathogens. These extracts are combined in a deliberate manner to rid the respiratory tract of bacterial pathogens, strengthen immune parameters, and revitalize the system.
Multiple clinical trials provide evidence that active extracts in Immunomax possess highly antiviral and antibacterial properties which "strongly inhibited the Epstien-Barr virus activation" and "exhibited significant inhibitory effects on EBV" as published in a medical study by the Kyoto Pharmaceutical University, Japan.
Further, the demonstrated antimicrobial action of wild grown extracts from Madagascar in ImmunoMax have a wide spectrum of activity against bacteria with the proven ability to safely destroy bacterial pathogens occurring in the respiratory tract, as published in clinical trials by the Teikyo University Institute of Medical Mycology, Tokyo, and the Biotechnical Laboratory of the Department of Microbiology at the Institut Agronomique, Morocco.
Immunomax is an advanced, highly potent immunostimulant treatment to be used only when you are suffering from chronic or acute immune deficient conditions. When symptoms have cleared, and to help keep your immune system functioning at optimum capacity and proper balance, we recommend application of ImmunoMax Suppressive Therapy (ST).
Preventing Mucous Congestion is of paramount importance when treating immune deficient conditions. It is impossible for the body to have sufficient absorption of life sustaining oxygen if the respiratory tract is covered with mucous. Immunomax supplies the substances that will help keep respiratory systems free of mucolytic deposits.
The lipophilic tendency of the essential oils in Immunomax have the demonstrated ability to penetrate into cell membranes and pass into the system via topical application. Among the numerous antimicrobial agents in Immunomax, organic oils containing high concentrations of cineole, which provide mucolytic properties, are combined with needle oils of pinus vulgaris which are especially effective to clear respiratory ailments and enhance immune parameters.
Cineole is used to clear the respiratory tract of mucous. Cin in Greek means movement and eole in Greek means air. Hence, we are facilitating the movement of air. The cineole rich oils in Immunomax, include melaleuca viridiflora from New Caledonia. This extract is renowned for its immunostimmulant properties as well as being high in infection fighting terpene alcohols. Melaleuca viridiflora exhibits great will to survive. Once the tree has taken root it refuses to go away. This is demonstrated in Florida where the species has spread for several years. Clear cutting the trees provided no solution as the stumps of the felled trees grew back. Hence this extract provides great strengthening of immune parameters and is excellent for treating pulmonary infections.
In Chinese medicine, needle oils from the great pine trees absorb lung chi. They possess a different spiral of energy verse regular leaves - they spiral towards the sun. This action allows this species of conifers to have a greater will. They are sun loving and bring light into darkness when one is suffering from a degenerative disease where health is a main issue. The needles are the lungs of the tree where the plants breathe, and in a simplistic view, assist us in breathing. They thrive in high altitude where the oxygen levels are low, thereby demonstrating great capacity to retain and oxygen. Therefore, if one is experiencing difficulty daily survival, it is believed the pine oils in Immunomax help to strengthen the fabric of life. Hence, Immunomax is also designed to fortify the system when layers of life have moved to a crises, as often experienced in CFS and FMG. Thus, this treatment is designed to get you going.
From a scientific and molecular viewpoint, the functionality of the success in Immunomax in cleansing the respiratory system and enhancing immune parameters is accomplished by reinforcing the power of the molecule of cineole with the monoterpenes in Pinus vulgaris. The power of the molecular compounds of cineole are reinforced with the antimucoltyic effect of monoterpenoids.
Immunomax provides a powerful synergy for making the mucous more fluid and helping cleanse excesses from the body. Making the mucous more fluid is an initial step in cleansing and clearing the respiratory tract and restoring energy levels. Application of Immunomax creates thinner mucous and regulates its secretion. Its first function is to keep the mucous membranes of the respiratory system clean and fortify the system.
Immunomax is an immune enhancing expectorant that thins mucus and loosens phlegm. This treatment is quickly absorbed into the lymph nodes and blood stream via topical application, then rapidly metabolized by the body and excreted in the urine.
By topically applying Immunomax to the adrenal area, lower back, the treatment has the ability to stimulate the adrenal glands as it fortifies immune parameters. One needs to keep the immune system in a state of strength if afflicted with immune deficiency, which is what ImmunoCare and Immunomax accomplish.
Once the system has returned to balance and symptoms relieved, the intensive Immunomax treatment can stop, but treatment with regular Immunomax ST is then recommended to maintain the newly strengthened system. Immunomax ST is therefore a maintenance and preventative treatment for overall well being while Immunomax is much stronger and designed for a curative role.

CONCLUSION
In CFS and FMG it is believed that the roots of the illness are present long before the condition actually manifests itself. These roots are activated by microorganisms and their toxins along with the immune system's reaction to them. As long as this hidden yet impending source of infection is active, it is believed no genuine healing or reversal of the condition can occur.
Taking ImmunoCare as a dietary supplement and application of Immunomax topical balm target to reverse the circumstances that lead to a depressed immune system causing FMG and CFS. It has been established that the extracts in these treatments inhibit viral pathogens associated with FMG and CFS and improve overall immune parameters and immunoglobulin levels. Therefore, these treatments serve to eliminate the root cause of the disease and proliferation of microorganisms causing CFS and FMG and activate the immune system.
Using the extracts in these treatments is a safe and proven method of minimizing or eradicating symptoms of CFS and FMG, preventing secondary or super infections, and, in general, supporting the body in fending off disease. Overcoming infections and immune deficiency with the help of ImmunoCare and ImmunoMax leaves the body in a state of improved immune competence resulting in a strengthened immune system and better health.
These treatments represent a major step in the initiation to your way back to well being. ImmunoCare and Immunomax act as two main pillars in the reconstruction and rebuilding of your health and vitality.
ImmunoCare and Immunomax help flush metabolic debris from the body. Generally, you will notice a gradual return of energy. Pain and symptoms associated with the illness are reduced with desired results of a reversal of the condition with full return to the physical state prior to illness.

TREATMENT and APPLICATION
The rapidity and degree of results depend on the following:
- The diagnosis must be clearly establishedThe earlier the treatment, the quicker the results
- The patient must follow the protocol
Average duration of treatment for recovery is 3 months or less for those with FMG or CFS one year or less. Between 1-3 years with the condition average duration of treatment is less than 6 months. Over 3 years, treatment can last 5-10 months to achieve its full objective.
Topical Application of ImmunoMax to help eradicate respiratory infection, acute fatigue and immune deficiency. Application acts as an immunostimulant, anti-viral, and neurotonic. This is important to be applied even if there are no symptoms of respiratory ailment as it acts to stimulate circulation and improve energy levels.
| First week: |
Apply 3 times per day |
| Second Week: |
Apply 3 times per day |
| Third Week: |
Apply 2 times per day |
| Subsequent weeks: |
Apply 1-2 times per day depending on severity of condition. |
Those experiencing quicker results may reduce the dosage.
Immunomax is extremely strong and highly concentrated, yet safe for topical use. Immunomax ST is milder and designed for overall health maintenance to keep the immune system fortified. Apply either product to the adrenal glands – lower part of the back below the bottom of the rib cage adjacent to the spine. As the products have the ability to penetrate into the system via topical application, it is important to apply to the upper chest, soles of the feet, and inner forearms. Use Immunomax to help recharge and revitalize the system. When you use Immunomax you will feel it quickly absorb and diffuse through your body. Nothing delivers the power and strength to fortify the system as the pure organic essential oils found in Immunomax.
ImmunoCare and Immunomax have anti oxidant properties which result in reduction of molecular deterioration by the enzymes responsible for energy production and cellular detoxification. These treatments act as a tonic and stimulant, analgesic, anti spasmodic, and anti inflammatory. The main method of action is to control infection, act as an anti viral and an immunostimulant. The constituents in ImmunoCare provide a natural intestinal flora regulator.
These treatments represent a healing process, not an overnight cure. To achieve the overall desired therapeutic effect of enhancing the immune system and reversing CFS and FMG it is critical that Immunomax be used in conjunction with ImmunoCare along with taking high potency multiple vitamin supplements and following proper eating habits.

Contraindications
Do not take ImmunoCare if you have any adverse reactions or allergies to thyme, clove, tea tree, geranium, or sesame. If you have adverse reactions to plant extracts or herbs, do not apply ImmunoMax.
Dietary Requirements
Sugar and white flour are naked calories, metabolism of these substances drains an already depleted body of the vitamins and minerals it needs for healing and maintenance. Hydrogenated oils and fried food also deprive the immune system and form toxic free radicals. All of these substances must not be consumed on the road to restoring health and using our treatments, they will greatly hinder progress and help keep you in a state of ill health. Drinking coffee is also not recommended.
Very important to take a megavitamin 3 times per day to help replenish vitamins and minerals from the outset of treatment. Among the multiple ingredients, each tablet recommended to contain at least 8,000 IU of Vitamin A, 75 mg of each of the vitamin B complexes, 100 mg of calcium, and 500 mg of vitamin C. Further supplements of vitamin C are recommended of 1,000-2,000 mg per day depending on individual tolerance. An additional 50 mg of zinc per day is also an important adjunct to your diet. More severe cases should also consider 100-200 mg of co-enzyme Q10 daily in gel cap.

About Essential Oils
The theory of essential oils and plant extracts is an extremely expansive and comprehensive field which constantly continues to grow. Medicine is about connecting to someone. The essence of organic essential oils, the life blood of the plant (generally extracted via steam distillation), resonates with the essence of the person, their individuality.
Plants withstand the forces that are beyond our reach. They depend on the very forces we are recently discovering. They have had to survive and adopt on a natural order of survival of the fittest. Adopt or perish. Plants therefore developed their own chemical warfare creating independent ability to repel invading pathogens and microorganism exposed to them on a daily basis.
Dr. Kurt Schnaubelt explains the way of essential oils in his book Medical Aromatherapy:
Plants are not as helpless and defenseless as it may seem. They need protection because they are immobile. In their constant struggle for survival, plants have learned to recognize attacks and to guard against them.
As plants are wounded they excide the secondary metabolism – essential oils – to heal the wound and protect from future damage. As plants have developed on the same biosynthetic pathway as humans, the biochemical process in animals and plants is the same. Our chemistry is the same as everything else. All interactions are a result of natural biological evolution. We have evolved from the same tree of evolution – our body knows these substances. The plant extracts resonate with our genetic blueprint.
Essential oil compounds are among the molecules of life itself. They are produced by live organisms, acting in the interest of the organism's survival.
It is therefore no surprise that it has been demonstrated quantitatively that essential oils fit in receptor sites and trigger biological reactions in the body. The anti microbial actions of essential oils fit wonderfully with the human body. The lipophilic tendency and low molecular weight allows essential oils to penetrate into cell membranes to dissolve the lipo protein of the hull of the virus. The essential oils dissolve viral envelopes without harming the host cell.
Therefore we apply the oils to help eradicate infection and regulate the immune system. The large catalog of indications for essential oils to strengthen the immune system and safely eliminate microorganisms from the body is well documented.
When you do not follow in accordance with nature then you can not understand who you are and your true essence. By going outside you can know the way of the world, honor the organic extracts.
Many have abdicated power to a doctor, as a result, being healthy helps you keep your power. For chronic degenerative auto immune diseases where health has become a main issue – a person wants to escape the disease, yet another condition soon appears a few months or weeks later. That then becomes the theme of the individual. For these chronic conditions essential oils with strong antimicrobial and immune enhancing action must be used to reinforce the system.
It is because Essential oils are endowed with the double power of working on both the physical level and the mental level that they are absolutely unique and irreplaceable for dealing with stress and autoimmune deficient conditions.
Dr. Martine Deloix ENT Emergency Medicine Doctor in Paris, France, explains: "My daily practice of the past 15 years has enabled me to verify the effectiveness of Essential Oil action on more than one thousand (1,000) children between ages 3 months and 15 years. Essential Oils have allowed me to reduce by 90% my prescriptions for antibiotics, anti-inflammatories …and to cut back on operations…essential oils are characterized by a very strong pharma-biochemical activity, which unequivocally confers to them as the character as an ethical drug." Proceedings from the 6th Scientific Conference of Aromatic Medicine 2001 Grasse, France

Testimonials
After falling very ill in 1994, just walking down the detergent isle in the supermarket became a nightmare. Perfume sections and artificially scented candle isles, forget it! Confusion, severe debilitating pain, shortness of breath, nausea, headaches, and fatigue beyond belief became my constant companions. Searching for the cause and answers, my Dr. and several specialists put me through a battery of tests resulting in diagnosis of Fibromyalgia, Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Mayo Facial Pain Syndrome, and Multi Chemical Sensitivities. I was so ill that I was pronounced permanently disabled and received disability. I was put on an assortment of medication which did not help to ease my condition, which I think may have been a result of my chemical sensitivity.
Searching for some help and relief, I found your products which have made a huge difference. I had some minor success with relief from my headaches from various other natural remedies and essential oils, but it was not until I tried your treatments did I realize the significant difference in quality of natural substances. Your treatments are truly the best. Finally I found products that are giving me profound relief without triggering my body's sensitivities to un-natural chemicals! Thank you kindly.
Meredith Banks Omaha
I have fibromyalgia - according to some doctors I've seen; others think it is all in my mind. I wish it were!! Then maybe I wouldn't hurt as much.
The best part for me regarding your treatments is the structure that helps shape my non-working day and the regular manipulation of the tissue. Before using your treatments, I would tend to get up, stumble through the morning, run around at work, then collapse at home. I've created a regimen of using your stronger formula in the morning and afternoon to get me going and then your paincare treatment (sometimes self- sometimes partner-administered) at night, all the while taking your supplements. With this, my time during the day and at home seems to have more shape. I noticed that I am not as depressed as much, which I think are a result of the treatments.
It seems to me that when I use the oils they help wake me in the morning and soothe me at night.
My doctor says it can't hurt and it makes me feel better, so go for it.
Susan Randall Chicago
I was "diagnosed" with fibro over a year ago and want to let you know I have had total relief from using your treatments. Initially I applied your topical balm along the soles of my feet, inner arms, upper chest, and lower back. I was suffering from acute fatigue so my PDR recommended Alkamime, but I could not stomach it. Nobody seemed to know why, but I also had pretty bad joint pain. I used your paincare in the affected areas and I must say I have never felt better or been able to do so much without pain and with an increase in energy level. I used the oils and pills religiously in the beginning as I was really desperate. After about 2 months I started to experience relief and I cut back on my dosage and applications. Everything was going really well. This past summer was a bit hectic and I finally took a few days off and went for a trip. With all going on I went for several weeks without using the oils or supplements. Unfortunately I started to experience pain and fatigue once again. I quickly turned back to your treatments. If I have to continue using these treatments for longer periods of time I really don't mind as it feels great to be off the medication I was prescribed and to experience life again. After one year I still use the oils, but just once a day as I feel my condition has turned around 100%. I can't thank you enough.

Graduate Institute of Pharmacognosy Science, Taipei Medical College, 250 Wu-Hsing Street, Taipei, Taiwan.
Nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) is one of the high population malignant tumors among Chinese in southern China and Southeast Asia. Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) is a human B lymphotropic herpes virus which is known to be closely associated with NPC. EBV DNA polymerase is a key enzyme during EBV replication and is measured by its radioactivity. The addition of phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate to Raji cell cultures led to a large increase in EBV DNA polymerase, which was purified by sequential DEAE-cellulose, phosphocellulose and DNA-cellulose column chromatography. Four tannins were isolated from the active fractions of Eugenia uniflora L., which were tested for the inhibition of EBV DNA polymerase. The results showed the 50% inhibitory concentration (IC(50)) values of gallocatechin, oenothein B, eugeniflorins D(1) and D(2) were 26.5 62.3, 3.0 and 3.5 microM, respectively. Furthermore, when compared with the positive control (phosphonoacetic acid), an inhibitor of EBV replication, the IC(50) value was 16.4 microM. In view of the results, eugeniflorins D(1) and D(2) are the potency principles in the inhibition of EBV DNA polymerase from E. uniflora.
Eugenia uniflora is found in both ImmunoCare and Immunomax

In-vitro anti-inflammatory effect of Eucalyptus globulus and Thymus vulgaris: nitric oxide inhibition in J774A.1 murine macrophages.
Vigo E, Cepeda A, Gualillo O, Perez-Fernandez R.
Department of Physiology, School of Medicine, University of Santiago de Compostela, 15782 Santiago de Compostela, Spain.
It is well known that nitric oxide (NO) plays an important role in the pathogenesis of inflammatory diseases. Eucalyptus globulus Labill. and Thymus vulgaris L. have been used in traditional medicine in the treatment of bronchitis, asthma and other respiratory diseases. The present study focuses on the effects of these two extracts on NO production induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) and interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma) in the murine macrophage cell line J774A.1. In addition, cell viability, scavenging activity and inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) mRNA expression were evaluated. E. globulus and T. vulgaris extracts significantly inhibited the enhanced production of NO induced by LPS and IFN-gamma in a dose-dependent manner. Treatment with these two extracts did not reduce cell viability at any dose used. Both plant extracts showed significant scavenging of NO radicals released by an NO donor, PAPA-NONOate. Results also show that pre-treatment with E. globulus and T. vulgaris extracts significantly inhibits iNOS mRNA expression. This study thus suggests that the inhibition of net NO production by these two extracts may be due to their NO scavenging activity and/or their inhibitory effects on iNOS gene expression.
T. Vulgaris is an active component in ImmunoCare.
Eucalyptus is an active component in Immunomax.
