Gulf War Syndrome Again?
Father who suffered found an answernow
his son is poised to go to war
Wolfertz is one of about 80,000 Gulf War veterans
who experienced afflictions such as headaches, memory loss, fatigue, sleep disorders
and intestinal and respiratory ailments, which have come to be known as the symptoms
of the Gulf War Syndrome. U.S. service members were potentially exposed to burning
oilfields, pesticides, vaccines and chemical warfare agents during the Gulf War.
Research studies and medical care for these veterans have cost hundreds of millions
of dollars and now another generation of soldiers faced a potentially similar
situation in Iraq.
While still in Kuwait, Wolfertz began to experience
physical problems. "I woke up one morning with a stabbing pain in my lower
back," said Wolfertz. "It wasn't in my spine, it was kind of off to
the left side and it just wouldn't go away." Although he received medical
care after Desert Storm, Wolfertz found no relief. After some time the symptoms
subsided but when he retired from the Marine Corp and moved back to New Hampshire,
they started up again.
"I started getting aches in other joints
of my body," said Wolfertz. "The rashes came and went. I got a recurring
sty on my eye about every 2 weeks and I started getting really bad headaches,
coupled with a lot of fatigue. I had short-term memory loss. I had no idea what
was wrong with meI just thought I was getting old."
Then one night he saw a television program about
veterans of the Gulf War suffering from unexplained physical problems. He immediately
went into the Veterans Hospital in Manchester and was subsequently diagnosed with
Gulf War Illnessbut the doctor told him there was no treatment or cure.
While testifying before the Presidential Advisory
Committee on Gulf War Illness in 1996, Wolfertz heard about a detoxification program
based on the book Clear Body Clear Mind by L. Ron Hubbard. This New
York Times bestselling book details a carefully researched program of nutrition,
exercise and sauna sweat out to release toxins trapped in the fatty tissues of
the body. This program has been completed by over 250,000 people and has undergone
twelve independent scientific studies that further confirm its efficacy.
"When I started the program I had the sty
in my eye, aches and pains in my body and active rashes," said Wolfertz.
On the second or third day Wolfertz was on the program he noticed a tan-colored
stain on his towel. "I thought, 'What in the heck is this?' I changed towels
and it appeared again. The junk coming out of my system in my sweat was being
deposited on the towel!" On the seventeenth day Wolfertz noticed black ooze
coming out of the bottom of his feet.
He completed the program in nineteen days, feeling
symptom free in the short space of less than three weeks and remains so to this
day. "It's been a real blessing in my life," said Wolfertz.
Wolfertz has a lot of concern for our troops
and for his son in particular. But if his son is exposed to any sort of chemicals
and toxins and needs help, Wolfertz knows what to do. "I feel the program
in this book is vital to all those exposed to chemicals and toxins," says
Wolfertz.

Clear Body Clear Mind
Exposed
to deadly poisonous gases, toxins and Agent Orange, this ex-Marine tells his story
of recovery with the detoxification program.
"Prior to the program something was wrong.
Objectively, I was acting analytically but from time to time subjectively I would
experience psychosis and neurosis in specific areas of my life which tended to
hamper me as a being. I am an ex-Marine who had fought in the Vietnam War from
1968 to 1969.
"Besides the constant fighting, I also was exposed to deadly poisonous
gases and toxins, especially Agent Orange and some sort of nerve gas, while in
the service and in the Vietnam War. Through the program these toxins were fully
flushed out. They had actually prevented me from thinking straight and logically;
inhibited my perceptions and control of my body. Boy, was I ever in for a surprise
during the program and after completion!
"I had considered my environment dangerousI mean really dangerous,
as it was in the jungles of South Vietnam. But would you believe that I was still
'in' South Vietnam though I left it in 1969? I was fully brought out of it as
well as oriented to my present environment by the program.
"It really undercut everything. I mean, these were such very simple actions
to do but powerful insofar as the results and gains I had. Both objectively and
subjectively, the program has changed my life, my physical well-being and my attitude
towards a much better existence of survival. I no longer have to look over my
shoulder for 'the enemy' (which wasn't there) or walk carefully through any grassy
areas (looking for land mines which don't exist) so that I can live another day.
"It has opened a door for mea door through which I can experience
life. My physical being is much better insofar as its coloration and pigment.
Many other people have commented on how healthy I look. I feel healthy and I am
aware that I am in control of my body which had been hampered prior to the program
by those toxins, especially Agent Orange. As a Vietnam vet, I can say that life
is definitely worthwhile to experience and create. There is hope for those Vietnam
vets who are still in the Vietnam War syndrome after being out of the war."

She
stopped doing drugs 5 years ago. However, the lasting effects of depression, lowered
attention span and problems communicating continued on long after stopping. She
then tried the Hubbard detoxification program...
"I stopped taking drugs five years ago. However, every so often I would
start feeling depressed for no apparent reason. I still found it difficult to
keep my attention on what I was doing. I had problems, sometimes, in communicating
my feelings to others.
"I found myself periodically becoming very introverted, sometimes with
disastrous results in my work. So despite the marked improvement in my life overall
I was still suffering from many of the manifestations of someone on drugs, although
I had stopped using them. At this point, L. Ron Hubbard released the program.
Within a few weeks I started it.
"While I was on the program I experienced many sensations such as nausea,
headaches and dizziness. I recalled that many of these sensations were the exact
ones that occurred while taking drugs, including medical drugs.
"During the first few days of the program I became really ill and actually
wanted to stop and go to bed. I was convinced I was physically ill. This went
on for three days and I just stuck it outthe best thing to do when a drug
is coming out of the system while on the program. I recalled a time when I was
very ill as a child and had the same symptoms. Shortly after this, the symptoms
decreased and within a few hours were completely gone.
"I found it easier to get up in the morning. I lost weight, my body was
really getting into good shape and generally felt happier, more alert and competent.
I was becoming a better wife and mother. I was even beginning to like myself more.
"I continued with the program and thereafter experienced an increased
sense of physical well-being. All the mental and emotional manifestations of drugs
plus various inabilities in handling life had vanished.
"I felt clean, healthy, alert, full of energy and goodwill. At this point
I knew I had completed the programall the drugs were gone. I now handle
my job easily and with great enjoyment.
"Life is a challenge I enjoy meeting and I am winning at it."

Once she
was told by a doctor that she had less than two years to live. Still standing,
she tells of her recovery after doing the detoxification program.
"In 1978 I went to my doctor for a standard physical. To my horror, I
was told that I had less than two years to live. He sent me to two other doctors
to verify his diagnosis and they all concurredI had arteriosclerosis, and
not much life left.
"One doctor told me, 'You'd better go home and write your will.'
"I was in despair. I was 25 years old, just newly married that year, and
it suddenly appeared that all my hopes and dreams for the future were now impossibly
out of reach.
"I had learned about L. Ron Hubbard's Purification program and decided
to do it, thinking that perhaps getting the buildup of toxins out of my body would
make things easier over the following months. It never occurred to me that it
could help me handle the problems completely.
"Three weeks later when I finished the program and went back to my doctor
for another checkup he was absolutely astounded. He said that the results were
impossible and that, even though two other doctors had verified his diagnosis,
he must have been wrong in the first place because what had occurred was 'medically
impossible.' There was no trace left, whatsoever, of the arteriosclerosis. It
was completely gone."
I have been healthy ever since. I am happily married to the same man 23 years
later, we have a wonderful 18-year old daughter, and I am achieving all of my
hopes and dreams.

"I
feel as new as the day I was born. I'm much happier, I am far more alert and my
communication has improved dramatically. My IQ has gone up 6 points. The detoxification
program changed me, physically and mentally!
"With the toxins gone, you think more clearly, and you are totally cleaninside
and out!"

Once
"I was a troubled womanand
I didn't realize how troubledbecause of all the things that were in my body,
the drugs and toxins built up in my system.
"On the detoxification
program, I sweated the drugs out. Because all those drugs and the alcohol suppress
emotion, on the detox I started to feel emotions for the first time.
"Since the detox, I have
less trouble and less drama in my life. I don't freak out when things happen.
I have much more control over my life and I'm healthier. I'm no longer foggy.
I'm more awake now. I'm much happier and that's priceless. I feel ten times better.
"The detoxification program
is a short, intensive program, but it's life changing; it has given me more chances
in life and has gotten me in touch with ME."

"I
was slowly becoming crippled. I'd been to the doctor many times, and nothing really
worked."
"I've
been an aircraft mechanic for over twenty years and a diesel mechanic before that,
so I knew that I had been exposed to a lot of stuff: chemicals, solvents, adhesives,
exhaust.
"I have been battling, for at least fifteen
years, chronic shoulder pain that was not getting any better. I was slowly becoming
crippled. I'd been to the doctor many times, and nothing really worked. While
I didn't do the detox with my shoulder in mind, after about four weeks on the
detoxification program, I realized that with certain arm motions, I was only wincing
out of reflexbecause it wasn't hurting. And since I finished the detox,
I realized that my shoulder is fixed. It's amazing. I've got my shoulder back,
I've got my health back.
"Also since completing the detoxification
program, my mental sharpness across the board is improved. My memory is better.
I've always had a pretty good memory, but now I'm able to access those memories
quicker, with more clarity, with more entirety. In the course of my job, I spend
a lot of time reading very dry technical manuals. Now I can grasp the text quicker.
What is different is my ability to absorb the knowledge, and then my ability to
recall it is better. I find now that I'm possessed of a much more even emotional
state.
"I don't know how else I could put it than
to say that this has proven itself to me to be the way to make myself a better
person, and to make the world a better place by me being in it." MM,
48, Aircraft Mechanic
