Natural Health Solutions - Success

Dear Friend,

If you are reading this you are looking for better choices when it comes to your
healthcare. I'd like to share my experience with Natural Health Solutions.

I have always thought of myself as a healthy person. Other than being bothered by mild
psoriasis and occasional seasonal allergies, I have always considered myself well. About
a year ago, my health took a turn for the worse. I had repeated strep infections and my
psoriasis spread out of control with new breakouts covering my arms, legs and torso. I
had also become very lethargic and getting out of bed was challenging. I was desperate
to find a find a way to regain my health.

Traditional doctors had suggested that I undergo surgery to remove my tonsils and
start taking systemic drugs to suppress my immune system to help the psoriasis clear
(not to mention the risks of side effects like destroying liver function and costs of
$1200+ month not covered by insurance). To me, that did NOT sound like a cure. It
sounded like a plan to completely destroy my health rather than restore it.

I began searching for a good alternative care practitioner. I had visited a chiropractor
who told me my health issues were likely the result of food allergies. I had read that
that was a possibility, but I dismissed it because I never experienced symptoms typically
associated with food allergies. I altered my diet and saw some improvement, but I
definitely was not getting well.

Not long after, I met Debra MacIntyre (a naturopath) and the Natural Health Solutions
staff at a health expo. After my free consultation and learning more about NAET and
naturopathy, I was anxious to try this treatment. Using kinesiology testing (checking to
see if exposure to a substance caused a muscle weakening in my body), we learned
that I had numerous allergies and sensitivities. I've only had 12 NAET treatments and
my health has already improved dramatically. I can now get out of bed in the morning
without that "I've been run over by a truck" feeling and my skin has cleared up
dramatically. Debra was the first health professional I have ever visited who took ALL of
my symptoms seriously. I am continuing my treatment at Natural Health Solutions and
am looking forward to gaining greater health. Thanks to Debra and her great staff!

Naturally yours,
J. A.

Several months ago a dear friend suggested I bring my 12-year old son to see you. He
had been diagnosed with ADHD amongst other things. When an educational consultant
suggested we have him tested for food allergies (because she felt his hyperactivity was
coming from somewhere other than the ADHD) my son immediately said, NO! I don't
want to get poked with any more needles. Given all the testing and trauma he'd been
through I wasn't looking forward to another battle. So when my friend explained how
you test for allergies without using needles I was quite intrigued and based on her high
recommendation of your services, we came to see you.

My son immediately took a liking to you. Your friendly, non-threatening approach won
him over and I was amazed that he agreed to change his diet and take the NAET
treatments without much resistance--because he can be really resistant when he
doesn't want to do something!!

As I observed the amazing results the NAET treatments were having on my son, I
began thinking about my own health. I'm a 2-time cancer survivor and although I'd
been given a clean bill of health, your approach to medicine (let's look what caused your
symptom vs. just treating the symptom) really made sense to me. My goal was to be as
healthy as I could possibly be and to enjoy energy and vitality. You began me on a
vitamin and mineral program that caused measurable results in just 3 months! Another
amazing benefit I got was ridding myself of a plantar's wart on the heel of my foot that
had been there for over 20 years. I'd tried burning it off with a dermatologist several
times and it kept coming back. After 3 ION cleanses I noticed it getting measurably
smaller and by the 6th ION cleanse it was completely gone (along with a lot of other
junk that was floating around in my bloodstream!)

I fully support your methodologies and approach to complimenting traditional medical
practices. Thank you so much for your selfless investment in the overall health and
well-being of our family. I appreciate you taking the time to educate my family on how
to make subtle changes to our lifestyles and achieve life-changing results as an
outcome. We would (and have!) recommended your services to several of our friends
and acquaintances.

We are blessed to have met you and thank God for you every day. May He continue to
bless your efforts. You are a gift to this world.

Gratefully,

K.B.

I came to Dr. MacIntyre and Naturopathic Health Care because I was scared and a bit
angry. I had just had a telephone call from my doctor telling me that my cholesterol was
too high and he was concerned about my blood pressure. His reaction was to
immediately put me on medication! I told him that I wanted to explore other options, to
at least try to get my cholesterol under control by diet and that my blood pressure is
only high at his office!

The doctor was skeptical, but I was adamant. I asked him for a referral to a nutritionist.
He gave me a telephone number, but I was happy neither with the attitude of the
person who answered my call nor with the little information she was able to give me.
After thinking about my needs and my interest in alternative medicine, I went to my
favorite health food store, Atlantis, and asked if staff there knew of a good nutritionist.
Deb MacIntyre was the first name I was given.

My experience here has been excellent! Having had a friend who visited a nutritionist in
another state, I was aware of the need to start with a food diary, so I brought a
week's list with me at my first visit. Of course, I was impressed when Deb MacIntyre
took a detailed history and talked to me about what I hoped to achieve before we really
discussed her program. She read my food diary and said, "If this is really how you
usually eat, this is not the problem." She suggested allergy testing and we began NAET.

Without really changing my diet-except for omitting peanut butter toast as an every day
breakfast-as of my late October visit with the other doctor to check blood work, we
have brought my cholesterol down 22 points, and I have lost 14 pounds since June. I
attribute this directly to NAET which seems to have begun to bring my body back into
balance and to enable it to function as nature intended. We have more work to do-I'm
not where I need to be yet-but we've made a great start!!

When I was 5-years-old, I was diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder and was put
on Ritalin. This helped with my ability to focus and follow written directions. Two years
later, I developed Tourette's Syndrome and was taken off Ritalin so that I could take
Haldol for the Tourettes.

Throughout grade school, middle school, and high school I continued to struggle
focusing on my work. During my junior year of high school I started using magnets to
treat my Tourettes but my ADD was still a problem. About a year after I graduated, my
mother and I started NAET treatments with Debra MacIntyre. After 15 years of
conventional medicine, I was frustrated with the lack of results and doctors who could
not help me without drugs. Since I did not want to take drugs again because of their
side effects, I was open to trying alternative treatments that seemed very noninvasive.
To say that I had my doubts was an understatement. But I did go into my treatments
with an open mind and committed to give it my best shot. With regular NAET
treatments, vitamin supplements, homeopathic remedies, and exercise (I started
playing ice hockey again) I've never felt better in my life. I can focus on my day-to-day
tasks at work and have no problem tasking myself. With the NAET treatments, I have
less fatigue, more energy, and I'm mentally sharper.

The Patient:
My name is Kerry and I am 9 years old. I have been allergic to milk all my life. When I
came to Debra I found that I was allergic not just to milk, but to vitamins, foods, and
things in the air such as pollen and grass. When I eat something I am allergic too, I
break out in rashes which itch. If I scratch them, they bleed and I don't like that. I also
get stomach aches. I came to Debra because I didn't feel good taking the steroid cream
and pills my doctor gave me.

For my first treatment, I had a very hard time. It took 4 tries to get just one allergy
(egg) away from me. I have to stay away from the allergen for at least 18 hours, and
that can be hard. The treatments also make me very tired, and sometimes I get
grumpy. But sometimes, it is easy. For example, I was allergic to banana. It was not
hard to stay away from bananas because I was not allowed to eat them anyway.

Once I started getting rid of my allergies I felt much better. My rashes started clearing
and I no longer have stomach aches. My body feels much better. Now, I am not allergic
to so many things anymore, but I am still working hard to make my body clear and
healthy.

The Patient's Mom:
I do not believe in colic. I have not for 9 1/2 years�since my daughter was born. From
the 2nd week of her life, her tiny little body cried in pain each evening due to a rash
covering most of her tiny body and her stomach contorting. It typically lasted at least 5
hours�starting around 4:00 and not subsiding until after 10:00 pm. Doctors told me it
was colic and would go away. I did not believe them then, and I do not believe in colic
now. There is a reason why one child cries while another sleeps peacefully.

After numerous starts and stops, I finally figured out that my daughter was allergic to
almost every food group: eggs, bananas, tomatoes, oranges, cow's milk, soy mild, goat
milk, baby formula, penicillin, the list went on. After a rigorous diet and breast feeding
for 6 months, I found a hypo-allergenic formula hat we could special order that she
could tolerate�and at last she stopped crying and slept through the night.

Nine years later, tired of allergy pills and steroid creams, fate led me to Debra
MacIntyre's door. I brought my daughter to the first consultation, thinking that as it was
her body, she had to be willing to do whatever Debra told us to do. Her final comment,
after hearing about NAET treatments was, "I just want to eat a Banana." How could I
refuse? (Do you know many people allergic to bananas?)

Well 5 months and 17 NAET treatments later, my daughter's skin looks beautiful. Her
eyes are no longer swollen and sunken in her head. The backs of her legs do not look
like she is covered in poison ivy. She does not scratch in her sleep. Her teachers have
commented that she is not itching all day long and is better able to sit still. We still have
many allergies to treat, but we have come a long way. It has not always been
easy�her first few visits caused her to have such severe tantrums that I assumed all
the neighbors heard her cries; she was also allergic to the remedies we tried and her
reactions were severe. She still gets very grouchy and emotional the evening of a
treatment, but by morning she is better.

But my daughter can eat bananas and drink orange juice and her skin looks beautiful.
She is much more comfortable in her body. She told me she no longer gets stomach
aches (something that had become such a way of life for her, I never even knew she
had them.) I am very thankful to Debra MacIntyre for all she and her assistants have
done for my daughter.

A friend asked why I did not do this sooner. My reply was "I didn't know about it."

Today my daughter, Amanda is a happy and well-adjusted 13-year-old. It's wonderful
when things work out!

Just a year ago, her pediatrician had referred her to a psychiatrist because of panic
attacks and sleep problems. Another child in school had threatened Amanda's life and
the resulting fear and drama (it seemed for awhile that every parent, school
administrator, and policeman in the system were somehow involved) triggered
emotional and physical upheaval. Amanda has always disliked school, struggling in math
related areas while excelling in language and reading. Puberty had stuck and her boat
was mildly rocking when the situation at school almost swamped it.

We started a long six months of weekly psychiatric visits and different drug routines.
Initially depression was the diagnosis and beta-blockers, antidepressants, and a mild
sleeping pill were prescribed. Things continued to deteriorate, and other drug routines
were tried and discarded. Last September 2002, Attention Deficit Disorder and the drug
Aderol were the direction indicated. Amanda was not a happy camper. She's a strong
and determined child. Being told that there was something permanently wired wrong
(that's the way the Dr. described it) and that she needed a lifetime medication were not
pleasant things.

I agreed with the psychiatrist that there was something physically wrong with Amanda.
Others seemed to believe that discipline was the solution, but what I observed was
what I would call a loss of emotional control in situations. She'd hit a point in a
discussion or argument where things seemed to simply take on a life of their own. It
was almost a Jekyll and Hyde point, which she and I discussed and called "hitting the
water slide." She and I talked about the whole situation a lot, and although she wanted
to do things differently, she felt helpless and distraught. I knew she needed help, but
didn't feel comfortable that Aderol was the right direction.

The day I picked up her first Aderol prescription, I had lunch with a dear friend, Becky.
Of course, we always talk about our kids, and Amanda's situation came up. Becky
strongly advised me to go and see Debra MacIntyre before proceeding.

Amanda's first meeting with Debra was encouraging. The discussion centered on
current habits and improving overall health. She scheduled supplements and allergy
testing. Debra explained to both of us the role that allergies sometimes play in Attention
Deficit Disorder. We left hopeful.

Testing showed that Amanda had some major allergies. Among her "biggies" were
animal dander (we had a dog and four cats) and paper/ink (all her schoolbooks). She
and I laughed most of the way home about Amanda being allergic to school! Clearly her
environment was overstressing her system almost everywhere she turned.

So as Debra advised, we undertook an immediate and aggressive treatment regime for
allergies. We planned to get two treatments a week and watch for results in a couple of
months. Were we ever in for a surprise!

Her first treatment was chicken. She blew it and all hell broke loose. I wasn't prepared
for the backlash on that one. Everything was awful. Nothing could fix it. I had to DRAG
her back to Debra for the follow-up. All the consequences in my bag were in play (no
friends over, no allowance, extra kitchen duty.) Debra patiently explained that this was
the normal result of a blown allergy treatment. Amanda was having none of t. Debra
patiently asked if Amanda liked the way she felt right then or if she wanted to get
better. Amanda was having none of it. I don't remember what finally resulted in
retreatment, but it took a lot of patience and finesse on Debra's part to gain agreement
to move forward.

The results of passing that first treatment were nothing short of miraculous. There was
an immediate change in Amanda's overall attitude and outlook. It's like the cloud cover
broke just enough for the sun to shine through. After just two more treatments,
Amanda looked at me, smiled and said, "Mom, I just feel happy now all the time!" She
has continued to progress.

We finished the basic treatments and are into the specific allergies. This weekend she's
doing the print/paper biggie!

Amanda doesn't have to go to summer school this year. She hasn't had a panic attack in
months. She sleeps like a teenager (every possible chance!). She's not on prescription
drugs (or others). When she gets upset, it's unpleasant but not out of control. She's a
happy kid. And I'm a happy Mom.

This family believes in Naturopathic healthcare and in Debra MacIntyre.

I'm so excited! This is the first time in 40 years I can be outside in the spring air without
being sick - no headaches, no constantly running nose, no constant sneezing : and no
crankiness! A Happy, Happy, Happy patient. All due to Natural Health Solutions and
NAET. Thanks everyone!

Gratefully,
R. R.

PS - I also have more energy, weigh less, my BP has dropped to a normal range and I
sleep through the night after being an insomniac for 20+ years. I LOVE NAET and the
results!

PPS - This was the best decision I've ever made!

In March 2000, I was diagnosed with lupus. Te rheumatologist prescribed an
anti-malarial drug�for life. I decided to seek other options.

Last October I began coming to Natural Health Solutions. I arrived with a tired & toxic
body, and a disquieted spirit about my health and life in general. I could not get through
the day without a nap. And though I did get lots of rest, I was still tired all the time.
Yuck. Bummer. Surely not the way I wanted to go through life.

An early suggestion was to put me on a diet consisting of 16 oz, twice daily, of raw fruits
& vegetables. Protein sources were to be limited to chicken & fish. Deb drew the
'iceburg' to illustrate the path of degenerative health, and the healing process of
restorative health. You suggested some lifestyle changes. You recommended some
herbal aids. We proceeded with NAET.

Still in denial about my health, I was not diligent about following everything suggested.
The results were predictable. A period of improvement was quickly followed by bouts of
ill-health. It has taken me a full year to embrace all the suggestions you made on my
initial visit. The results are nothing less than phenomenal. I have energy; can get
through a day without a nap; and find I am once again approaching life with an upbeat
attitude.

I jut wanted you to know how grateful I am for your patience in working with me. I
have recommended you to others in my circle and will continue to do so.

Last Christmas our son had just turned three years old and our daughter one. We had
wonderful gifts under the tree and we were looking forward to playing with the new
toys and celebrating Christmas with the kids. Unfortunately, our celebration came to an
end very quickly. It was going to be another "bad" day for our son. This was not a
Christmas to remember.

Sometime during that Christmas day; after the anger, after the tears, after the
exhaustion from it all wore off, my husband and I resolved we would do something
about our son's problem. We couldn't live like this. We didn't want the rest of our family
life "ruined" because of his problem. We talked about things we haven't wanted to talk
about. Maybe it's bipolar. Maybe we should try to find a psychologist.

For the next couple of months, I research childhood bipolar. I was dismayed because a
lot of the symptoms sounded like our son. I started looking for a psychologist that had
experience with bipolar. The search proved difficult. The doctors with experience in our
area were not taking new patients. I didn't want him seeing a psychologist at his age,
but we needed help.

I talked about it with a good friend. She told me to keep praying and keep searching for
an answer and it will all work out. I asked her to pray for us. A couple of days later, I
met a lady at the park, she told me about NAET and Debra MacIntyre.

Both of our children suffered from colic and were not "easy" babies. I knew my son's
behavior and physical symptoms were being impacted by food, but none of the doctors
we had visited could detect allergies. We were told he would probably outgrow it. The
physical symptoms seemed to lesson with age, but the behavior got worse. We were
able to figure out a few foods we knew he couldn't handle by tacking his diet, but there
were still a lot of things we couldn't identify. I kept saying, "if I could just figure out
what he's allergic to�" I never dreamed we could detect and eliminate his allergy!

Thanks to a mom willing to talk about alternative medicine, NAET and Debra MacIntyre,
we are figuring it out. We saw a dramatic improvement with out son within 10
treatments. He is a happier child and we are a happier family. We still have "bad" days,
but they happen rarely instead of regularly. We are now on the family treatment plan.
We are all receiving NAET treatments and getting healthier. My children and I always
suffered from colds that turned into bronchitis and ear infections with antibiotics and a
lot of sleepless nights. Now they rarely get a cold and, if they do, it's usually only a sore
throat and runny nose for a couple of days. It's been wonderful!

I prayed often for a miracle to heal my children from their allergies. It wasn't the instant
miracle I was hoping for, but it has definitely been an answered prayer. It's been
almost a year since we started my son's treatments, now I pray for patience to see us
through the treatments for ADD/ADHD and mental disorders. I pray their patents will
find out about NAET and will give it a try.

Our Christmas morning this year was the stuff of dreams for parents with little kids.
Squeals of joy, faces full of smiles and wonder; and most importantly, time to celebrate
the joy of Christmas.

I have been seeing Deb MacIntyre and her staff for about 2 months and the difference
between 'before' and 'after' are quite astounding.

I moved to Atlanta in February of this year and ever since arriving, I was only able to
get about 4-5 hours of sleep every night, although I was 'sleeping' 8. I would wake up
feeling 'dead'. I was beginning to wonder if I was going insane after 6 months of this.
My energy was low and it was hindering me in nearly every aspect of my life. Something
needed to be done about it! Also, for the last decade I have been fighting with a weight
issue. It got to the point where I gave up on any diet because "nothing was working"
and I was getting used to the idea of being overweight for the rest of my life. That is
when I came to Deb.

In my first visit, Deb made me feel very welcome. She listened to what I had to say and
didn't judge me while doing so. She took the time to make sure that I understood
various words and symbols that we came across that I didn't understand. She took time
to work with me. I wasn't another body to her. Within the first visit she could see that I
was electronically charged and she worked with me on things in my environment that I
needed to change. I also got my first homeopathic remedy.

Within 24 hours, I had people telling me "how good I looked" and "whatever you did,
don't change a thing!" I was floored. The only thing I changed was taking the remedy.
WOW! I continued taking my remedy and I felt changes occurring with my body almost
instantly. I liked that because I'm an 'instant gratification' type of gal. It made me want
to continue. I went back to the office for my next visit and Deb suggested that I start
the ION cleanse. I was a bit hesitant because it was something unknown to me, but I
decided it would be okay to give it a try! Boy-am I ever glad I did!

I have just wrapped up the 7th ION cleanse and my body feels better and did after the
very first one! I have more energy; toxins are getting out of my body that could act as
barriers to my weight loss. I am blown away each time and I would rather 'have them
out than in!'

During my 3rd visit, Deb found the precise reason why I was not able to sleep. It was
that I was sleeping right under the electrical box that flows all the power into the
house! That night I moved into another room - I got 9 hours of actual sleep! It was
AWESOME! I would not have ever guessed that's what it was!

I want to thank Deb and her staff for their care, professionalism, and their dedication to
helping others lead a healthier life.

My deepest thanks,
J.L.

I'm a 75-year-old woman who for nine years has been suffering with severe joint and
muscle pain. After seeing many specialists in the medical field, no one was able to make
a definite diagnosis or offer lasting relief. This past year I was recommended to a
rheumatologist who is treating me with potent drugs for rheumatoid arthritis (but still
not with a positive diagnosis).

I live in New Haven, CT and during a visit to my daughter, who lives in Atlanta, she
convinced me to see Deb.

In this short time Deb has fit in as many visits as I was able to handle and worked on my
immune system and allergies. To say that progress in such a short time has been
remarkable is an understatement. I now have almost full range of motion in my
shoulders, less inflammation, and increased strength in my hands. I have an overall
sense of feeling better with increased energy.

But most of all, I'll be going home with at last a feeling of relief knowing what is causing
my problems and that there is finally a treatment to help me. I'm sure with following
Deb's instructions; I can look forward to a renewed healthy lifestyle.

When my son, Jeremy, was an infant he contracted Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV)
which quickly led to bronchiolitis. He began to wheeze and fight for breath. In the
emergency room at the hospital they gave me an air chamber and mask to treat him at
home. I would spray the medicine (usually Albuterol) into the chamber, place the mask
over his face and he would breathe it in. The doctor also put him on Prelone (a steroid)
which he would take for 10 days. The wheezing would gradually get better, but within
four to six weeks, he would be back at the doctor's office wheezing and given Prelone
again. This continued for about six months. Eventually, we moved up to a nebulizer
machine which administered the medicine in a mist. This regimen had to be followed
every four hours which meant I had to wake him up a couple of times a night. I
expressed concern to the pediatrician about the frequent use of steroids. She said they
were necessary because it was especially dangerous when babies wheeze because
their air passages are already so small and the situation could very quickly become
worse. She also said that due to the bronchiolitis at such an early age, Jeremy was
predisposed to upper respiratory problems and that I needed to get used to it - he most
likely would be an asthmatic child.

Well, I decided I would NOT get used to it. I did not want my child on steroids and I was
tired of strapping a mask on him for treatment ever four hours! A friend referred me to
Deb and after her very first homeopathic treatment, he gradually stopped wheezing
and he did no have another wheezing episode for four months! This was unheard of -
he had never gone longer than six weeks without wheezing. When he did start
wheezing again, Deb said if at all possible to use the homeopathic treatment and forgo
the steroids and Albuterol. But she also made it clear to follow my "mother's instinct"
and if I felt he needed the Prelone or Albuterol, to use it. It was extremely difficult not
to intervene with the wheezing that first time but I wanted to give his immune system a
chance to work on its own. It would have been much easier to give him the Prelone, but
I watched him very carefully and waited. In a few days, it went away.

It was an even longer interval before he wheezed again and it was resolved within a
day or two. And then he never wheezed again! I am convinced that if I had continued
with the conventional treatment of steroids and Albuterol, Jeremy today would have a
chronic condition and a compromised immune system. I am glad that I did not get used
to it and I am so thankful I found Debra who helped this body heal itself.

I am pleased to share with you and your staff the AWESOME results my son, Malik has
had since being under your care.

In September 2001, I witnessed Malik having a seizure. My husband and I called an
ambulance, not knowing what had happened and being very unfamiliar with this
condition. There at the emergency room, many tests were run including a CT scan
which all came back normal. Even though I did not realize it at the time, it was the start
of many uncomfortable visits for Malik continuing to have seizures and going back and
forth to the emergency room, having doctor visits and taking several tests including 3
EEG's and a MRI. The only results from all of this was Malik being diagnosed with
Epilepsy and it being recommended for him to take a very strong medication everyday
that we were told would damage his liver. An abnormality on his brain was found from
the testing and Malik was simply put in group diagnosis for Epilepsy for having more
than 3 seizures.

This is when I came to Natural Health Solutions. I was referred to your office by L.R.,
who had been coming to your office and having some excellent results. I first met you
when you came and spoke to L. and L. Riley's group regarding Naturopathic Health. I
was so impressed with the information you provided and how you explained the
concepts so well.

At 3 years old, Malik began coming to your office in March 2001. You explained to me
that you would treat him as an individual and that all illnesses are not treated the same
way. You told me that, "we will treat Malik, not the condition." You also said, "We all
come into this world with certain strengths and weaknesses." I am glad that I did not
accept Epilepsy over his life because with the help of NAET treatments along with
several supplements including homeopathic remedy, Nux Vomica, he has not had a
seizure since September 2002! Even his last 2 seizures he had there was dramatic
improvement because the Nux Vomica would immediately STOP the seizure. The nerve
assists, done nightly, also proved to be very helpful especially after a seizure. Our family
is truly BLESSED because of the non-invasive, gentle yet effective treatment program
for Malik. Your office has always been very accommodating to my 2 children.

My 4 year old daughter and myself are also faithful patients.

I am equally as impressed in your dedication to educate your patients and be involved in
worthwhile programs for the benefit of a healthier society. Your professionalism,
rapport, and caring spirit will always be remembered.

Thank you,
M. Family

My wife and I wanted to drop you a line to express our gratitude for the work you and
your staff have done with our son Dylan. When we first came to see you we had spent
the previous two years with several prominent specialists in the Atlanta area trying to
address the challenges Dylan faces as an autistic child. At the time, Dylan suffered from
severe diarrhea, allergies, and chronic ear infections. Dylan was ill so frequently that it
impacted his ability to learn and reduced his participation in much needed therapies.

In the past eight months since Dylan became your patient the improvement has been
dramatic. Dylan's diarrhea is gone and his immune system is so much stronger that he
has required only one antibiotic in the past year. We are currently making good
progress in fighting his allergies. The cumulative effect of your work is a much better
quality of life for our son and for that we are very grateful. Keep up the good work; you
are making a difference!

Methacylin resistant staph infection is not a word you hear everyday, it is however
becoming quite a common infection and you do not have to be in a hospital to get it.
Earlier this year I unfortunately understood the term and its affects first hand.

It started out to be what I thought was a spider bite or ingrown hair. This infected area
only got worse no matter what I put on it. It was inflamed, swollen and felt feverish.
After only a day and half I had to be rushed to the medical center while I was out of
town on a business trip. The doctor told me I had a methacylin resistant staph infection.
Staph lives on your skin and if your body is run down and you have an open wound, hair
follicle that could be irritated from shaving, etc. the staph infection can infect that open
area. I had recently shaved my bikini area and this is where the infection occurred.
They had to cut open, drain and pack the infected casing with gauze that had formed.
Two days later, just before my flight home, the doctor unpacked the wound and told me
I may need surgery. I proceeded to my doctor in Atlanta and she treated me with high
dosage antibiotics, stronger than the ones for a regular staph infection (hence the
methacylin resistance). I was out of work for another week with a heating pad and
Epson salt baths to aid in the healing. About a month later I was finally over this
extremely painful ordeal. A few months, probably 6 months later I was shaving my
underarm and noticed that same painful, irritated feeling I had with my previous staph
infection. I did not want to go through the horrible pain as I had before so I had my
doctor culture the area. Sure enough, I had another staph infection. The doctor
suggested I see a specialist and I knew just who to call. I had been seeing Debra
MacIntyre off and on over the past few years for my allergies. Through seeing Debra I
knew my body had something not working right for me to be getting so sick so often.

Debra tested me, found what parts of my body were lacking minerals, etc. and how to
strengthen those parts. We made up several remedies that were easy to take and
scheduled my recheck for 4 weeks. The amazing part is within TWO days my symptoms
went away even though we treated for a full month. No pain, no cutting, no
inflammation ever occurred. It was truly a great experience!

I have not had any symptoms or any more episodes with the staph infection since.

I wanted to share the story of Megan's journey to finding the benefits of
Naturopathic Medicine through Debra MacIntyre.

Megan is our 8 year old. She has a little sister, Kayla. She is the oldest child in
our family. I had a perfect pregnancy with Megan and a very normal birthing
experience. But, unfortunately for Megan, it was downhill from there. She
has never been a critically-ill child, by any means, but she is one of those
children that always got lost in the "cracks" of not seriously ill, but also not
completely well.

Megan started her life with formula problems and mild colic. It took us 6
weeks to find a soy formula that would agree with her. She stayed on that
formula until she was 2 years old due to "milk allergies". She had other
various "allergies" that limited certain foods and caused other "minor"
problems with her health, skin and diet until she was at least 15 months old.
We started with standard allergists at 15 months old due to a reaction she
had to eggs and the need for egg-based immunizations at that age. At 18
months old, Megan had her first major wheezing attack and was almost
instantly diagnosed with Reactive Airway Disease.

For the next 3 � years, we had several ER visits for wheezing, many courses
of antibiotics for sinus infections, more steroids than I ever want to think
about (inhaled and oral) and chronic strep (7 times in 4 months) at the end
of her pre-K school year. This last issue led us to have her tonsils and
adenoids removed in hopes of removing the infection source. With each
illness or episode, it seemed as if another medication was added.

Megan started with allergy shots at 5 years old - two in one arm and one in
the other, every week. We built our house with all hardwoods and installed a
great filter to our A/C system. We also followed all of the recommendations
for avoiding dust in our house. She essentially lived in our little sterile bubble
at home, but when we traveled, she suffered.

We visited at least 3 ER's in other cities while traveling. I learned to travel
with my arsenal of medication. Eventually, I learned what medications she
needed prior to traveling to keep her from wheezing while gone - they were
large doses of inhaled steroids and antihistamines. We carried our Hepa filter
with us everywhere we went and we always brought our own bed linens and
pillows for her. With all of these extra steps, we had about a 75% chance of
a good vacation with minimal wheezing. This got exhausting and I became
very discouraged by the progress she was making with modern medicine.

At the time that I started exploring alternative medicine, she had reached
her maximum dosages of up to 6 prescription medications each night to
control her asthma, allergies and eczema. We had specialists we visited
regularly, including: her physician, dermatologist, allergist and pulmonologist.
Between all of her doctor's visits and missed days of school due to illness, she
and I were both exhausted. When I would question her doctors about her
susceptibility to illnesses, they would deny that she was anything but a
healthy child and that medications would not cause any long-term problems.
But I had a very hard time comparing her to her friends that never got sick
and missed very little school and I struggled with this little body having to
filter so many medications each day.

Last fall, a neighbor started talking to me about Debra MacIntyre. She had
seen her speak at a pre-school and thought I might be interested in talking to
her about Megan. For the entire year prior to that, a friend of Megan's had
been undergoing NEAT treatments for her allergies and illnesses. Her father
raved about the differences that were made in her life. I lad read about it
online and was thrilled to discover that it might be an option for Megan. We
started Megan's NAET treatments early last fall. At first, it was very hard to
recognize any b enefit, but after all I had learned and after talking to Debra
about Megan's history, I felt confident that if I were persistent, it would pay
off.

After 7 or 8 treatments, I noticed a clear difference in Megan's overall
health. She seemed to be fighting colds better and we were resorting to less
and less medication with each one. She slowly started coming off of some of
her meds and had increasingly better check-ups with her specialists. There
was clear improvement earlier in the year with some chiropractic treatments
and vitamin therapy we had already initiated with our family chiropractor,
but her progress in the fall was amazing. Her lung function studies were the
best they had ever been and her doctors reported that we could experiment
with taking her off of her medications completely if she continued to have a
good fall and winter.

She was doing so well by Christmas that we left our arsenal of meds at home
when we traveled to visit family for a week in Connecticut. She stayed in a
foreign environment for an entire week, sleeping on a down pillow, in a
house with 4 dogs, without a single cough during the whole trip. This is not
something we could have accomplished even earlier that year.

We are still forging ahead with her NAET treatments each week. She still
gets sick, but her body is stronger and fights them better. I had faith in the
treatments from the very beginning, but friends and family have been, and
still are, skeptical. But there was no denying the effect that the pet dander
treatment had on Megan. Prior to that treatment, she would get red, bumpy
spots on her face when our dog would lick her and she would sneeze and
cough if she would even touch the neighbor's cat. This was devastating to a
little girl that wants to be a veterinarian or zoologist when she grows up. The
allergy shots for pet dander were not showing improvement after 3 years. It
took 3 NAET treatments to eliminate this allergy, but after the last avoidance
period she was cleared. When our puppy licked her in the face, she had no
itching and no redness. When she held the neighbor's cat, she didn't sneeze
or cough. Neighbors who had seen her suffer after touching the cat were
amazed to see her now snuggling with him with no adverse effect. I still get
looks of skepticism when I talk about her treatments, but they also admit
that what they have witnessed is wonderful. This has been our biggest proof
of the effectiveness of these treatments.

In early January, Megan's pulmonologist agreed to experiment with no
medications after discussion of her improved status. She has been off all
medication ever since she has not wheezed. We arm ourselves with
homeopathic remedies and vitamins when she gets sick. Her chiropractor has
communicated with Debra about their goals and treatment plans. They have
taught us how to build her defenses instead of putting a "band-aid" on her
symptoms.

We've not been back to the allergist or the pulmonologist. We have stopped
giving her shots and I've stopped mine as well. We are taking the path of
"natural medicine" instead. We have no intentions of denying modern
medicine when necessary, but have instead shifted our first course action in
an acute condition to looking for the source instead of treating the symptom.
Kayla and I are now patients. Neither of us has nearly the medical history of
Megan and will not require as many treatments to experience improved
health.

I have become, as Deb calls it, a complete "convert". If you had asked me 8
years ago if I would ever believe in any of this, I would have said, "No"! I
work in the medical field as an audiologist. I have relied on medical expertise
my entire life. But now I have learned to be my own advocate for my needs
and my children's and I've learned to open my mind and think about my body
as the ultimate healing tool. My husband has almost transformed, although
the concept of such an abstract science is difficult for him. But when
cornered, he can't deny the difference he's seen, particularly with Megan's
responses to animal dander.

I hope our story of Megan's medical journey will help someone make the
decision to try Naturopathic Medicine and NAET. The key is that it is
non-invasive and safe. And, most importantly, it doesn't concentrate on
exposing the body to more toxins. My goal is to do what I can to emphasize
the importance of the two medical models merging. Imagine the medical
success stories that could emerge if we combined the geniuses of traditional
and alternative medicine together.

Thank you, Debbie, for opening our eyes to the miracles of Naturopathic
Medicine!!

Eric is a 5-year-old who is very sweet and affectionate, more than most children. He is
my second child. However, due to all the environmental and food allergies that we
have learned about when Eric was about 3 years old, there is a whole other side that
unfortunately, is not the sweet sensitive Eric that I know. We have been coming to
Deb MacIntyre for over 2 years. Eric as a baby had a terrible temper, and we seldom
took him out due to the sudden temper tantrums. I mean he was out of control. He
also had many ear infections and I feel was always on antibiotics. We were constantly
told this is typical baby behavior, and he will grow out of this. Or we were told, let's
give it a few years, and then we can look at baby Prozac or Ritalin. Deep down, I
knew this was not normal baby behavior, and second I was totally against putting him
on drugs.

We later found out that Eric was allergic to basically everything that I was feeding
him. Eric has always been a great eater. However, everything I was putting in his
system was basically poisoning him!

We found Deb when Eric was about 3 � years old. You have to understand. My
husband was a typical kid that grew up on Ho Ho's and Ding Dongs! So all of this was
very weird and he was very skeptical.

He has been doing these NAET treatments for over 1 � years, and all I can say is that
Eric is a different child. Even my husband is a true believer, to the point when we see
something 'brewing'; he is the first to say, 'Let's take him to Deb'. Something is going
on.

For example, he could not take a bite of French toast without going into a complete
tantrum. Ears would turn red, and he was out of control. He now can eat French toast
every weekend with NO problem.

Our biggest obstacles were sugar, dust, and mold. We had to treat each a few times,
but WOW, what a difference. He is more a typical 5-year-old now, vs. always being on
guard not knowing when he was going to lose it.

We still have a long way to go, however, I feel he can now interact with other
children, he doesn't have to eat 'different' foods, and he is doing great in school.

Before I gave Eric anything, all natural or not, I always have Deb check to make sure
it won't affect him. There are many all-natural remedies I have bought for him, that
after testing Eric, I cannot give to him. I can now tell when something is 'brewing',
and immediately take him to see Deb. Within ONE DAY of whatever remedy is needed,
Eric is back to normal again. HE can sit still again, focus on his school work (even his
teacher saw a huge difference after one day of remedy), and he just seems more laid
back and not so uptight about everything.

I could go on and on about Eric's success. There are days I say, "Eric could live in a
bubble so that all these allergens can't corrupt him and affect him the way they do". I
know that I am doing the right thing! One day, I know Eric will thank me for no giving
him all those drugs, but taking the long road to keep him healthy will be well worth it.

M.K.

I have been working with Debra MacIntyre for about 2 years. We started seeing her
after my 8 month old daughter was diagnosed with asthma and I didn't like the
medical alternatives for keeping her healthy (constant pharmaceuticals). My daughter
has seen much improvement in the past two years and only takes the asthma
medicines a couple of times a year when she has an upper respiratory infection. Since
that time, my husband and I have also been seen by Deb to prevent sickness and deal
with sickness and just be generally healthy from top to bottom.

A major intervention occurred for me recently by Deb. I became pregnant and Deb
put me on a schedule to help me stay healthy during the pregnancy and also to help
me give birth to a child that starts out healthy (which was opposite from my
daughter). Deb would check me out at the beginning of each trimester. My pregnancy
went smoothly except in the last trimester I became anemic. Deb gave me
homeopathics for building my blood up and therefore I had less fatigue. I still had to
take iron, but overall felt much better with the homeopathics. I also had discussed
with Deb that during my first pregnancy, I was tested positive for Group B Strep and
therefore, had to have IV antibiotics during labor. Deb recommended that we deal
with my ecological environment in my body to try to rid myself of this and hopefully not
need the antibiotics (we believe a lot of my daughters problems stemmed from this to
begin with). I was taking notadum for awhile and then during the 36th week I got
tested and it was negative!!! That meant that I would not have to go to the hospital so
early during labor and the labor and delivery would go more smoothly with less
interventions. Since I was planning a water birth at the hospital this was very
important to me and I was very excited that this child would be antibiotic free from
the start.

Everything went beautifully!! Deb had recommended that I take homeopathic ipecac
during my labor (since I had nausea and vomiting with my first) and it also worked
wonderfully! I did have some nausea and minimal vomiting, but only because my
husband left it at home when we left for the hospital. My friend brought it to me and
then it all went away again. Yet again, Deb helped to make this labor much easier and
healthier and a dreamlike experience. We delivered our son in a birthing tub 6 hours
after labor started and it is an experience that we look back on with a smile and awe.
We owe a lot of that to Deb - it never ceases to amaze us what an impact she has had
and continues to have in our lives.

Thanks you Deb for all you do. We love you.

The A. Family

My name is Ryan. My brother Robby has been coming to Debbie for several months
because of his eczema. Last week, I went with my Dad and Robby to the Home
Treatment Seminar and we learned how to give a home treatment to my brother.

Debbie told us that we could give home treatments to other people to help with all
kinds of things. My dad had not had a good sleep in over 2 years. That night I gave
him a home treatment at 10:00 PM. The next morning he woke up 30 minutes late
because he had the best sleep he has had in 2 years!

Thank you Debbie for helping our family with all kinds of things!!

I wanted to drop you a line to let you know that I finally noticed an improvement in my
Rheumatoid Arthritis the past couple of days! Yippee! I'm in the final week of the
detox drops and the past 3 nights I have slept all night long without waking up in pain
at all! I've had 3 mornings in a row of being able to dress myself, and 3 mornings
without crying all the way to work from the pain! I am still taking Naproxen (500 mg
twice a day) because I am still getting very stiff, but I have not had horrible throbbing
pains. I've had a good day here and there, but I haven't had 3 good days in row since
December.

I came to Debra MacIntyre at 55 years old wanting to prepare for the rest of my life in
the most healthful way. My energy was low; I was taking calcium and blood pressure
medicine and felt BLAH.

Now, some 9 months later, I am in fantastic shape. I no longer need to take vitamins,
no longer need the blood pressure medicine, and I feel wonderful!

Under Deb's stewardship I have achieved my goal and am confident the remainder of
my life will be healthy and happy.

Wow!
L.H.

I was experiencing a great deal of fear and anxiety. I was becoming afraid that I
wouldn't be able to care for my children or work or function. I managed to make it to
Deb MacIntyre's office with all the intention I had.

She greeted me in her cheerful way and said she could help me in 48 hours! I had
been unable to sleep for several days. She took my life history, asked questions and it
turned out that pesticides had been affecting my nervous system.

She gave me drops, nasal spray and told me to drink lots of water. After 48 hours I
was able to sleep, and now seven days later I am almost 100% better and feeling
much more certain about myself.

Thank you,

T.R.

For all of my recorded history, I have been troubled by allergies. The symptoms
included occasional blurry vision, and more often, watery and itchy eyes. Also, nasal
passages were often completely blocked - particularly at night. Also, I had excessive
clearing of the throat and coughing - all in absence of having a cold.

Some years back, I was operated on to remove nasal polyps - including within the
sinus cavities. The surgeon said the polyps were an allergic response over a long time
- but he had no suggestions for identifying or eliminating the allergens.

I then spent a summer with an allergist in New Jersey, hoping to forestall another
such operation, taking many tests and injections twice per week nearly all summer.
The result of all that was exactly non-detectable and I then concluded that no remedy
was available.

Recently, my sister suggested coming to your office because you could deal with
allergies. Decades of bad prior experience indicated no remedies were available - but
sister does thorough research on topics that interest her - and it is quite impossible to
ignore her suggestions once she thinks she's on the trail of something. So I then came
to your office. That first visit included some pressure point responses which were
stunning. The discussion and pressure point exhibits persuaded me to sign up for a
series of treatments.

That first treatment provided improvement in the form of clearer nasal passages. So
the improvements were immediate and continuing. After a series of treatments, the
results now are as follows:
- Nasal passages are clear almost 100% of the time.
- Blurry vision episodes are gone.
- Watery eyes and itching are almost entirely eliminated.
- The excessive clearing of the throat is greatly reduced.
- Coughing, associated with the throat clearing, is almost entirely eliminated.

Some weeks past, I was telling my son of the great success in getting rid of allergic
reactions. He said he and his wife had noticed one improvement - with tremendous
relief and appreciation. It seems he and his wife drew straws and the loser had to
listen on the phone to my coughing and throat clearing. Happily those conversations
are now less nauseating for them.

So, Deb and staff, Thank You Very Much! There are multitudes of people out there
stoically suffering from allergies - because they are unaware of effective treatments.
I will urge allergy suffers to come to your office and be rid of these burdensome
problems.

I am forty years old and have suffered from allergies since childhood. I've taken
allergy shots for thirteen years for mold, dust, pollen, trees, weeds, and grass. These
helped symptoms a little, but I still suffered.

Within a few months NAET has CURED me from those allergies as well as allergies to
smoke, shellfish, and many other food allergies.

My family regularly goes to Naples, FL for vacation. My allergies are usually terrible
due to smokers in our family, mold problems, and blooming trees and flowers. My visit
in February showed a remarkable improvement in my allergy symptoms - no constant
congestion, itchy throat, sleeplessness, and sneezing. I felt great on vacation for the
first time.

My life has changed on a daily basis at home as well. I am not as dependent on
medicines everyday to relieve my symptoms. I sued to have itchy eyes, nose, and
throat regularly along with a runny, congested nose most of the time. These are
gone.

I have seen many doctors about constant fatigue. After many tests, nothing appeared
to be wrong with me. However, some days I could hardly get out of bed. The many
food allergies that were identified finally explained my lack of energy. As my food
allergies are cleared, I have more energy and feel better than ever.

NAET has been a miracle in my life. Thank you so much.

Allergies Affecting Sports and the Quality of Life

I finally have the time to share my success story. It started when I experienced
emotional trauma when we lived in Florida. We then moved from there to New
Orleans and then here to Atlanta. Well, the Deep South took its toll on me. My allergies
caused me to stop exercising and just not feel well. I also had a hard fall just after
completing a marathon. Once we got situated in Atlanta I started to seek traditional
treatment. As a result of my allergies I was diagnosed with sleep apnea and started
using a CPAP machine. It helped, but the seasonal allergies were still killing me. I
visited an ENT who recommended that I have sinus surgery because I was suffering
from chronic sinusitis. I had the surgery in January of 2007. Talk about a painful
recovery. He then suggested I start a regiment of allergy shots to address ALL of my
seasonal allergies. I did that for three sessions and the shots made me so sick I had to
stay in bed the next day after taking them. I felt like I had been poisoned!

My coach called me and shared that her son had great relief from his allergies by
going through NAET treatments. I wanted to feel better so as soon as I got off the
phone I researched NAET. I was so lucky to find Natural Health Solutions and you
Deb! When we met for my exam you made me feel like I was your only patient. I
learned a lot about my body and its conditions. You were firm, but kind about the
things that I needed to stop such as drinking too much soda. My treatments began
and I found that I was severely allergic to many things. Through the NAET treatments
I have finally found the relief that I needed from all my allergies. I am now training for
a half marathon and a full marathon in September thanks to you
