This testimony comes from my dear wife Amy who has been on VIBE for about eight weeks as of today.–EG

“I was 21 years old when I had my first baby. About a year later, I began having crazy hormonal problems that were PMS-related (I had never had any problem at all previously, not even cramps). I started getting extremely moody and depressed and irritable and would feel very overwhelmed when faced with the simplest of tasks. Pretty quickly I got on a natural progesterone supplement that seemed to help. I wouldn’t be ‘normal’, but it did take the edge off, and I could at least do the dishes without crying or panicking.

“I had two more children, and my PMS got worse after each were born. I had to take at least two of my pills a day, more if it was a bad time of the month (sometimes about 8 in a day) just to keep me at a functional level (not happy or pleasant, mind you, just able to get lunch for my children), otherwise I would bottom out, have panic attacks over my need to do the laundry, be very depressed, weepy, and/or irritable. Not a pleasant condition to live with (for me or my family).

“I had to watch what I ate, for it seemed that if I ate the very least amount of sugar, no matter what time of the month it was, I would have 1-3 bad days. The same thing would happen if I missed any sleep. But even with enough sleep, I was pretty much tired all of the time, and especially when I was having a “bad day”. I would basically want to sleep all day, and often took long naps and still crashed at 8 after my kids were down.

“Then it so happened that my husband gave me a special drink one morning. I had no idea what it was or what it would do for me. That afternoon, he gave me another hit. Now this just so happened to be on a Friday, which is usually a very busy and hectic day for me, as that is the day I do a tremendous amount of housework, and I am usually extremely exhausted by the end of it. But that evening, I was not. I felt very good, in fact. I decided at that moment, that whatever he gave me, I needed more of. It was VIBE. We made our first order right away.

“Then a real problem occurred.

“About a week after I started taking VIBE, I ran out of my medication. This is a problem, because I have to have it shipped to me from a pharmacy out of state. And it was on a weekend. And it just so happened to be the absolute worst time of the month for this to happen. I knew that if I did not have my pills that day, I would be a total basket case the next day, and certainly more so by the time they would arrive. “Well,” I thought, “since 1 oz. of VIBE gives me more energy and makes me feel pretty good, maybe if I take 2 oz. it will get me through until I get my medication.” It far exceeded my expectations. I did not have 1 bad day during that time, or since I have begun taking VIBE. I am still what would probably be considered a “new user”, as this is just my second month taking Vibe, but it has already done dramatic things for me.

“I cannot tell you how absolutely wonderful it feels to be normal and be in control of my emotions. I can think rationally and hardly ever take a nap anymore. I have been able to cut down my medication to only 1 pill a day, but am sure that I will not even need that after a few more months on VIBE. I have even been able to eat a piece of candy, or stay up until midnight without bottoming out (not that I encourage these activities–I believe that a high fiber, low sugar diet and “early to bed, early to rise”, as well as all the other factors of a healthy lifestyle play a big part in one’s overall health, but my condition never allowed me to indulge even once). I have not felt this good since before I had children.

“I may go without many things, but Lord willing, I will keep taking my VIBE. Feeling good is very addictive!”–Amy Gillis
