>Hi! After reading the negative response you received, I wanted to let you know that I agree 100% with you! I was on supplements, strict diet, and organic foods only after my surgery with Dr. Cook. I felt better than ever!! I got pregnant right after, though, and was so sick that I got off the diet and I had to quit the supplements because they were unsafe for the baby. After breastfeeding a year, as with any diet, I had trouble going back to it and unfortunately, my endo came back a few months ago. I just had a hysterectomy about 2 months ago and feel great. I still think that if I had stayed on the regimen, things would have turned out differently. The hard thing is staying with it. I tend to forget to take supplements and stuff when I feel well and I was pain free until recently!! Good Luck! Keep up the strong determination!!
