Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE or lupus) is a chronic autoimmune disease that attacks the body’s cells and tissue, resulting in inflammation and tissue damage. SLE can affect any part of the body, but most often harms the heart, joints and skin and can be fatal.

SLE symptoms vary so widely it often mimics or is mistaken for other illnesses, and because the symptoms come and go unpredictably. Diagnosis can be elusive, with patients sometimes suffering unexplained symptoms and untreated SLE for years. Common initial and chronic complaints are fever, malaise, joint pains, myalgias and fatigue. For more details please visit http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lupus_erythematosus

We had conducted a novel case of a female SLE patient with multiple health disorders: gastritis, abdomen distention, chronic constipation since childhood, fatigue and multiple joints arthritis. She was prescribed corticosteroid and quinine drugs for past 5 years by her doctor. Despite of treatment, her SLE markers and malar rash did not improved significantly and her immune system was weaker and with chronic running nose.

In October 2006, the subject was offered a 180 days EnerFlex® SLE Programme with the objective to help improve her SLE condition by looking at the fundamental: Improved digestion and nutrients absorption and disposal of toxic waste. The fundamental was assessed via Iridology Technique. [Note: EnerFlex is a novel soy based functional food with optimum balance of protein:carbohydrate ratio powered by water-soluble dietary fibre (Procardo)/AFA Blue Green Algae (D-Diet) and Probiotic (Probiotic)]

ILLNESS DIAGNOSED:

Diagnosed by doctor as SLE patient since year 2000
No. of years: 6

EXISTING TREATMENT STRATEGY

DESCRIPTION OF PRE-EnerFlex® SYMPTOMS

• SKIN AND COMPLEXION: Dry and itchy occasionally
• MOBILITY: Pain triggered on knee/legs after 2 stairs climbing
• PAIN AREAS: Toes, hands, fingers, knees and back including lower back
• BOWEL MOVEMENTS: 2 -3 times a week with hard stools
• COLOUR OF THE STOOLS: Black and smelly
• OTHER SYMPTOMS:Fatigue, rash on face, abdomen distention and bloating, gastric-like stomaching, and headache during night times.

The Results

All medications were stopped gradually within month 1. As a result of stopping the corticosteroids, patients were experiencing almost unbearable symptoms such as cold extremities, fever, joint pains and difficulty in breathing. However, these symptoms are gradually improved after 1 month. And, all symptoms merely disappeared after 3 months of EnerFlexTM consumptions. It was hard to explain medically, but it was believed as part of the body detoxification and rejuvenation responses.

Patient’s stool colour had been changed from black to light brownie and her constipation resolved. She passed her motion once-twice daily without hardened stools . Her stamina improved significantly after 6 months and could walk up and down of 4 floors. Her knees were stronger and less pain episodes despite of staircase climbing. No more headaches during night times.

Significant improvement in MALAR RASH (BUTTERFLY RASH) after EnerFlex® PROBIOTIC, D-DIET AND PROCARDO consumption. Smoother and softened skin texture of the cheeks. Improvement in malar rash was also accompanied by improvement in tissue and toxin flow as shown in her iris topography assessed via iridology technique.

SEEING IS BELIEVING!!!
EnerFlex® works!

Iridology technique revealed that the patient’s tissue was improved in lesser toxins (alleviation of constipation) and constituent (rejuvenation). Inflammation of tissue (lesser excavated tissue) was shown to be lessened too.

Gastrointestinal health improved by EnerFlex®

CONCLUSION

This is first documented case of EnerFlexTM use in SLE although some positive feedback was received that EnerFlex® alleviated / reversed SLE in some patients since the product launched in 2001. However, the result is merely a case study and the use of EnerFlex® range of products is with the objective as adjunctive therapy to patient’s existing conventional treatment for elevating quality of life of the patient and not meant to replace any medications prescribed by their doctors until official studies that warrant the use as therapeutic tool.
