Alcario’s story is an inspiring one, to say the least.
By focusing on his health, he was able to overcome nineteen different symptoms in a relatively short space of time.
At the end of his program, Alcario wrote telling us that:
“Compared to when we started to this present moment, I feel amazing. Great energy, I can go out and not worry about my stomach killing me and I am much happier.”
When 21 year-old Alcario contacted us from Ohio in the U.S., he was struggling with a grand total of 19 different symptoms (yes, nineteen symptoms!)
Worst of all, he had been experiencing many of these symptoms since he was eleven years of age, giving a full decade of suffering.
He had been dealing with his symptoms for a long time, when a bout of antibiotics “tipped him over the edge” and triggered major problems.
Alcario had tried to figure out how to fix his ailments himself, but to no avail, so he wanted to have some personalized guidance.
Alcario’s initial list of symptoms
Here is the long list of symptoms that had been wrecking Alcario’s life:
- Bloating
- Gas
- Nausea
- Belching and Food Regurgitation
- Abdominal pain burning after eating
- Constipation
- Insomnia
- Difficulty concentrating
- Irritable.
- Feels a little depressed
- Anxiety
- Shortness of breath
- Fatigue
- Cravings and large hunger levels
- Low sex drive
- Itching
- Bad breath
- Oral thrush (fuzzy, white coated tongue)
- Weight gain
Many people wander round feeling confused about why they have such a diverse array of ailments and it is not uncommon for people to have 6, 12, or even 20 different nagging symptoms.
Of course, you cannot take a different drug for every single symptom, so the only way to recover health is to go back and investigate the most common root causes.
Whenever symptom clusters involve digestive problems, it is wise to start by assessing correcting digestion.
And that’s precisely what Alcario did by working closely with my Hompes Method professional, Jack Walton.
Alcario’s initial stool test
A stool test is one of the best ways to assess digestive health.
It tells you what bad bugs are in there as well as how damaged your digestive system is.
Alcario’s stool test results revealed that he had:
- +1 Larval Nematode (i.e. a worm infection)
- Proteus vulgaris
- E. coli overgrowth (NB: this is not a classic E. coli infection)
- A very high H. pylori count (51.8 when the cut-off point is 20.0)
- His bacterial overgrowths had a lot of antibiotic resistance meaning that certain antibiotics would be useless in solving his problems.
You can see his test result, below, with all the abnormal markers are highlighted in green.
Alcario’s test results did not look too bad. We have seen people with a much larger burden of “bad bugs.”
But it’s not about the number of bad bugs, it is about your individual relationship with them.
If your immune system dislikes even one bad bug, that single little critter is going to cause you an awful lot of problems.
Alcario and Jack, a member of my practitioner team, had to get to work.
Alcario’s healing journey
As you can see in Alcario’s testimonial (below), his symptoms did not magically clear overnight.
It took a few months of dedication to healthy lifestyle habits and specific supplement protocols for him to achieve his desired results.
He gradually changed his diet and eating habits, as well as his lifestyle choices.
He took specific supplements to address his stool test findings and remove the H. pylori, E. coli and Proteus bacteria, in addition to the worm larva.
By following through on Jack’s recommendations, just look at the improvements Alcario made:
- Bloating: Alleviated in 1 month.
- Gas: Alleviated in 1 month.
- Nausea: Improved to only experiencing it occasionally.
- Belching and Food Regurgitation: Completely alleviated.
- Abdominal pain after eating: Improved by 90%. Able to reintroduce many more foods.
- Constipation: Improved and only occasional.
- Insomnia: No insomnia any more.
- Difficulty concentrating: Improving concentration levels (still work to do).
- Irritable: Improved and better sense of self.
- Feels a little Depressed: Much improved, only slight depression remains.
- Anxiety: Much improved, only slightly experiencing anxiety.
- Shortness of breath: Alleviated.
- Fatigue 3/10: Improved to 6.5/10 – still some work to do.
- Cravings and large hunger levels: Normalised.
- Low sex drive: Improving but not normal yet.
- Itching: Rarely only now.
- Bad Breath: Alleviated
- Oral Thrush: Alleviated
- Weight gain: Under control and stable.
It was testimony to Alcario’s commitment that he followed through and achieved these results.
While they were not quite 100% perfect, his results restored quality of life and peace of mind.
Here’s what Alcario had to say:
“I was of ill health for 10 years before me a Jack met. I learned to manage my pain over that time. What took me over the top initially was a bout of antibiotics I took that not just completely wrecked my digestive system (severe inflammation, unable to digest anything), I also had extreme fatigue, mental fog, low libido, just to name a few of my symptoms. I did a stool test prior to working with Jack and I thought I could fix myself, I was wrong. A few months passed and to no avail I contacted Jack. Working with him helped me follow a consistent health regimen that gave me my health back. It took time to recover my health, as getting sick didn’t happen overnight. Compared to when we started to this present moment, I feel amazing. Great energy, I can go out and not worry about my stomach killing me and I am much happier. Thanks Jack!”
Are you fed up with long-term symptoms?
Do any of Alcario’s symptoms sound familiar?
Are you battling through the day with a mysterious cluster of uncomfortable symptoms that don’t seem to want to go away?
Would you like some detailed, personalized assistance to get rid of your symptoms for good and stay well for a lifetime?
We are not doctors but we know how to test and correct a faulty digestive system, detoxify the body and balance the hormone system.
It really is not that difficult when you have someone showing you the way and holding your hand through the process.
We have worked with close to 3,000 people over the last eight years – people of all ages who were struggling with a wide range of ailments.
The reason we are able to achieve great results with most of our clients is by devoting time to understanding the situation in detail.
There are no rushed 8-12 minute appointments with us, and no condescending appointments with specialists telling you it’s all in your head.
You get a huge amount of time and attention and we make sure you get well.
The process can start one of two ways.
First, you can take the plunge and get a stool test, like Alcario did. We are using an even better laboratory now than we were when Alcario did his testing.
The home stool test process is dead easy – a test kit is sent to your home; you provide the sample and return it to the lab.
Your results are released and we interpret them for you, run a 60-minute consultation by phone or Skype, before recommending a course of action.
If the stool test is too much to begin with, we also offer a detailed case review and 60-min consultation to help figure out the best course of action for you.
By the way, the stool test we now use is superior to the one Alcario used, so you’d really be doing yourself a huge favour by getting one.
