I have been greatly blessed by participating in the restore program. The books, video, and especially the Wellness Center have greatly educated us in how to live a healthier lifestyle. After having quadruple bypass in 2005, it was my desire to control my cholesterol and totally eliminate the statin drugs and toprol by diet and exercise alone. While at the wellness center, I quit taking the drugs and began a strict vegan diet along with a strenuous exercise program. After about a week I began feeling better than I have in a long time. I had more energy and slept much better. After about 2 months I had my cholesterol tested and it had shot back up from a LDL level of 99 to 169. My doctor has since put me back on the Lipitor and the level has dropped back down to 91. I am currently working to reduce the level of Lipitor. I personally feel that the time frame of two months was insufficient to allow my body to acclimate to the new diet and exercise regimen.

While my objective to eliminate all of the drugs was not met, I have experienced the side benefits of a reduction in weight and an overall healthier feeling. I wish to thank all the kind people at Christian Care Medi-Share for making this possible. I anticipate that the quality and length of my life has been greatly improved.

May the LORD richly bless this ministry.
