Round 1: Vials 1 & 2 of Giardia Lamblia Series Therapy by Deseret Biologicals 

7/25/2014

This treatment is NO JOKE. It is not for the faint of heart. Not to scare anyone off, but you really have to be mentally prepared to go into battle with this beast. I took Vial 1 and that first night really took me by surprise. I just did not image it would be that bad and definitely not that fast. I was struggling all night with cramps, nausea, acid reflux, and being in a ball with my heating pad. I think that night I got about 2 hours of sleep tops. That whole day following went the same way, I couldn't eat more than a bite or two of food max. I went to bed thinking it would be a better night, but much of the same. I had an episode in the morning that got very severe, so it's a bit of a roller coaster as far as when the symptoms came and went. By day 4 i finally got some much needed relief and my appetite came back. Unfortunately that was when I was due to take the second dose (vial 2). I took the dose in the evening and by 3am the symptoms were back full force. I am writing this now on day 5, and my stomach is like in a giant sheet cramp. I also am having really severe hunger pains. They are deep deep rolling cramps that feel like you have not eaten for days. Almost like when you feel so hungry that you will be sick. I get those pretty severe and nothing helps. Even if I can choke down some food that often times does not help either. Hunger pains are a very common symptom of Giardia so I think I can expect to be fighting that off for a good majority of it.

I will be keeping this blog up and updating every single vial as I go through the 60 day treatment. I take one vial every 3 days, and there may be instances where I push it out a 4th day due to symptoms being too severe. I certainly don't want to overdo it. So, this is the place where I will honestly talk about that. I want to stress that this is NOT to be negative. This is to be informative. A lot of people who want information about certain forms of treatment can not find it readily on the Internet. This treatment blog is meant to be very honest so that anyone who is interested in how this feels or what it does will know. I refuse to sugar coat the truth because that would be unfair and untrue. So, you will get the truth here no matter what. People should have the right to know what they are getting into.

Anyway, t
hank you for reading!

Signing up with Young Living: Difference between Customer & Wholesale Member

7/13/2014

If you simply want to sign up with Young Living and skip this post then click HERE. It takes you straight to the sign up page.

I have shared my love of oils in many places online, and by word of mouth. But the biggest question I get is "Where Do I Get The Oils For Myself?" The oils I use are Young Living, and I picked them out of all the other brands because they are Medical Grade, which means they are safe to ingest. A lot of cheaper essential oils you find in drug stores are NOT medical grade, they are perfume grade and can not be taken internally. So there is a huge difference in quality. Young Living is the best of the best, you only need a drop or two of an oil to experience amazing results. Everyone with whom I have shared the oils has been instantly hooked, so I of course want to share with as many people as possible.

If you decide you are curious about the oils and want to try them out for yourself you can go to Young Living's website and create an account to be able to purchase. You will be given the choice of signing up as a Customer or a Wholesale Member. This is confusing to a lot of people so I wanted to share the differences, and the enormous benefit of becoming a Wholesale Member instead of a Customer.

There really are no hidden tricks or anything of the sort. Signing up as a Wholesale Member means you can buy the oils at 24% off retail cost, which to me was the selling point. The only 'commitment' is that you need to buy $50 in oils a year to keep your status as Wholesale Member. BUT if for any reason you don't do that, it's no problem. Simply call up Young Living and they will re-instate your membership for you. You never have to sell a thing (I haven't sold anything once in my 7 months), and it's basically just an awesome way to get a discount on oils so you can try more of them out and experiment with its many uses.

Now, on to the next question. "When I sign up, which kit should I buy?"
When you sign up as a Wholesale Member you will have the option to buy some of the kits at amazing prices. There are a few to choose from, but the best bang for your buck is the Premium Starter Kit. It comes with 11 oils so you have a little bit of everything which gives your freedom to really experience its benefits. It also comes with a diffuser and some other samples. The graphic below does a great job of explaining this:

Although that Graphic is from another site (Confident Mom), I want to note that if you do sign up all of those benefits are still included. I will send you a Quick Reference Guide to get you started, and offer access to private Facebook pages (with a wealth of information), and access to monthly SpreeCast's if you choose. I believe the best way to find the relief these oils can give you is to have a large variety, and the Premium Starter Kit includes all the most popular ones with the most uses.
Signing up as a Wholesale member with Young Living has really been the best decision I have made for my health in a long time. It has benefited not only myself, but also every single member of my family. I want to note that this post isn't intended to sell you guys anything, but to inform. I have seen a lot of people sign up as a Customer and I think it's because they do not fully understand the benefits of being a Wholesale member, or getting a Premium Kit. I thought taking some time to explain would help those of you who are seriously considering this.

If you want to sign up as either a Customer or Wholesale Member, click HERE

And if there are ever any questions about the oils or how I use them then please by all means feel free to shoot me an email, I am always happy to help: cskova01@ladyoflyme.com
