"Carry Herbal Adjustment with you at all times, the life you save could be your own! In September 2007, my husband was working with a chain saw on our land. I heard the work stop and approximately an hour later he showed up at the camper. I noticed his left pupil enlarged twice the size as the right. His voice was slurred and very hard to understand. The left side of his mouth was dropping down almost to the chin and he was completely confused. It was obvious he had suffered a stroke. I still wonder how he made it back to the camper. I immediately started giving him doses of Herbal Adjustment. First dose was four droppers full or approximately 80 drops of Herbal Adjustment in a dixie cup of water, five minutes later I repeated the dose, 10 minutes later another dose. By the third dose his left pupil and sagging mouth were back to the same size as the right. The doses of Herbal Adjustment were administered every two hours from this time for the rest of the first day. I added Sassafras (four droppers full or approximately 80 drops, four doses per day) to thin the blood and Chestnut Leaf (four droppers full or approximately 80 drops, four doses per day) to prevent any blood clots from forming along with his vitamin, Vita-Lixir (one dropper full or approximately 20 drops per day) . He was still very confused and having trouble with feeling and movement in the left arm and legs. Walking was strained and he had to think about every step. That evening I needed to hold the bowl while he ate soup. By the third day he was walking without holding onto the walls, eating on his own and talking much better. Within two weeks he was sitting on the backhoe while my son drove the tractor. He continued to get better and better every day! He was driving within a month and within a couple of months the slur in his voice was unnoticeable. At this time I decided to add Mel-W to his daily herbs to repair any remaining damage to the brain message centers. By the time two months had passed no one would ever have guessed he had gone through a stroke. Thank you all at Pure Herbs for the excellent products you produce and I thank the Lord for bringing me to Pure Herbs. It saved my husband from years of rehabilitation." —C.D.D., Jefferson, O

"I just wanted to write a little testimony about my daughter. One morning she got up from bed and she was sick. She couldn’t walk and she was shaking all over. We took her to the hospital and she was there for three days and they could not find out what was wrong with her. They took all kinds of tests each day and we thought they would surely figure out what was wrong with her. After three days of testing they said everything is clear so we asked if we could take her home. They cleared her to go home, but we still had no answer as to what was wrong with her. We decided to go see Paul Hilty and he put her on some herbs. Within a week we noticed a big difference in her. She could walk again, she got up in the morning without crying and went to eat breakfast which she hadn’t been doing. She also played with the other children whereas before she would just sit on my lap and cry. After about two weeks she said, ‘mom I don’t shake anymore’. The biggest thing about this improvement is we didn’t even give her the herbs internally because we could not get her to take them because her stomach was so upset. We decided to just put the same amount of the herbs that she was supposed to take internally, into a bit of warm water and had her soak her feet in it for about 15 mins. twice a day. When she was finished with soaking her feet the water had a black color. Thank you Paul Hilty! We now have a completely different daughter. She is five years old and is now very active. The herbs used in the foot soak were: Black Cohosh, Licorice Root, H.M.E.-H, Chlorella and Bladderwrack (4 oz. bottle of each applied externally. We also used a 1 oz. bottle of Arnica Oil Blend which was applied externally)." —The Schwartz’s, Reading, M

"Just wanted to let our readers know how true and pure, Pure Herbs products are! I began taking Pure Herbs through a distributor named Lamar Harris. He supplied my first bottle of herbs (Vita-Lixir) at his own expense. I had been diagnosed by doctors with severe hypoglycemia and they said I must take a Prozac type medication to help me accept that I would never work again. The doctor put me on high blood pressure medication because I was fainting on a regular basis and basically told me to go home and never live. Larmar met me at the mailbox one day and asked what was wrong because I looked so sad. I told him what was going on and he said he was going to bring me something back and it wouldn’t cost me anything. I just had to believe that it could help me. From that day forth, I have no hypoglycemic sickness. I only lacked protein in my diet which I now take in liquid form from Pure Herbs. I also take Three Bee’s, C.C.E.-W, A.C.S. and Mugwort and Wormseed. I no longer have high blood pressure! I live a great life and have helped many others, just as I was helped to correct and live again! I took it one step at a time and my body is healed of sickness and disease! After many years of success I just want to say . . . Thanks Pure Herbs!" —L. K. O., Clinton Twp, MI

"I was notified by my son’s school to come and pick him up because he was sick. To my shock upon arrival I witnessed the most horrifying sight a mother could ever see! My son had experienced an allergic reaction to something he had eaten and his face had swollen like he had been in a championship fight. Luckily at this time, I am taking an herbal practitioners class and I immediately called my teacher, Dawud Rahaman to find out what he thought I should give to my son. He suggested Black Cohosh, Virginia Snake Root, C.C.E.-W. I also looked in my herbs and condition book and read about L.A.S.-JB which is for quick relief of allergic reactions. Once I arrived at the Pure Herbs office and received the herbs, I immediately gave him the L.A.S.-JB. I gave him 1 capsule broken open and I poured the powder into his mouth, followed by water and the rest of the liquid herbs. Before I got to the highway to head home (about 7 minutes from the Pure Herbs building) I could literally see his lips decrease in swelling and his eyes appeared a bit smaller. Within two days he was completely healed. Thank God for the herbs that He has placed here for our food and nourishment and thank you Pure Herbs for being wise enough to make them available for all who have the knowledge of them." —T. H., Detroit, MI

"I was having heart palpitations when I was in bed at night trying to sleep. I think they were due to stress or menopause. I spoke with my sponsor and she recommended I try Hawthorne for my heart. It didn’t take long, about three or four weeks, before I noticed that my heart had become stronger and I was able to breathe deeper and relax more. Thanks Pure Herbs for giving me back a strong heart." —Julie, Cary, N

"I am so excited to share with you my experience. At first I thought the rash on my neck was due to a yeast type infection. Through Experimentation, that was ruled out. I found a ring like, itchy rash growing in a circular pattern, which spread, but eventually stopped at the end of my shaving area of the neck. This alerted me that whatever the cause, it lived in my thick hair shaft follicles. This immediately prompted me to Mugwort and Wormseed. Not wanting to mess around, I rubbed it only on one side of my neck to determine the effect (the scientific guy that I am). After several days my left side cleared up, while my right side did not. After that I then consumed it liberally to cleanse the invaders from the inside. Once again proof that, indeed, the Pure Herbs did their intended job! This won’t stop me from eating Sushi, since now I know that I have ‘natural defenses’ on my side! Thank you for sticking to purity and potency in your herbs." —Dr. John Saab, W. Bloomfield, MI

"I had hives this summer and the only thing that gave me any relief was Ol’ Number 11. I used a Q-tip and dotted each area with the Ol’ Number 11 and applied it twice. By the next day it was 2/3 better. After three days most areas dried up. New little bumps would appear occasionally because of the terrible heat in humid Kentucky. But, again with each spot I applied the Ol’ Number 11 and it would help clear it up quickly. I also used Red Clover Blended internally, which I think helped clean and purify my blood. Thank you for such a great product." —B. R., Gamaliel, KY

"I work in a printing company bindary and my hands were sore, cracked and red like a lobster. Skin Lotion Plus #102 healed my hands back to normal within a week of use. Also, I really like the scent. It’s the best hand lotion on earth!" —M.M., Warren, M

"A friend was in a hurry to get to church and forgot that her stove was self-cleaning. She put her left hand onto the burning hot stovetop! Oh, the pain! Her index finger had a long, nasty looking blister running down it lengthwise. Her middle finger had a blister half the size of the first. The third finger also had a tiny blister. Her daughter called me and told me what had happened so I told her I would meet her at the church with some herbs to put on the burns. She trustingly drove 35 miles while holding an ice pack in her left hand. When she saw me she cried, ‘The pain is terrible! Even with the ice pack it hurts so badly!’ Since the blisters had not ruptured the skin, I quickly applied Arnica and Knitbone Extracts and the Skin Lotion Plus #102 directly onto the fingers (NOTE: the extracts may sting if it is an open wound, so use the Skin Lotion Plus #102 before applying the extracts). Within seconds she exclaimed, ‘Oh, that feels good! Look it’s not red!’ She was in awe at how fast the pain and swelling were dissipating. I continued applying two applications of the herbs on her fingers when it began to look dry, which was about every 10-15 minutes. After 2 1/2 hours, the blisters had gone down, except a small bump on her index finger and the pain was 90% gone. She kept repeating, ‘Look it isn’t red anymore and it feels so much better!’ she continued to apply the herbs at regular 20-30 minute intervals for the rest of the day. Monday she applied the herbs about six times and a few times on Tuesday and Wednesday. Seven days later her fingers looked awesome! There was no skin discoloration, redness, swelling or scarring. Also, the blistered skin was gently flaking off! She was thrilled! And the Winner is . . . Pure Herbs, Ltd.!"—.P.C., Valley View, TX

"This morning while I was getting ready for work, my husband asked me what the Vane Eaze Lotion, which had been left on the toilet seat ledge, was for? I asked him, ‘Why’? He then repeated the question and I told him it was for varicose veins and hemorrhoids. Then I once again asked him ‘Why’? He told me that the night before he had applied the Vane Eaze to his shins, which had really been aching and that the aching was gone. He also applied it to his feet, which had been going numb and to his ankles, both of which have very wide and protruding veins. He said that after a few minutes of applying the Vane Eaze, the veins relaxed, restored circulation and became smaller. The relief gave him a much needed restful nights sleep. While he was telling me all of this, he was busy applying the Vane Eaze all over his legs before leaving for work. When he got home later that evening, I asked him if his legs had bothered him at all and he said they had not. I can’t wait to see the long term effects of such a wonderful product! By the way, my husband has Type II diabetes, so I am going to have him try the DB.8-W. He spends many hours driving a truck and his legs and feet have become very bothersome. I’m hoping by using the DB.8-W we can work from the inside out too! Thank you Doc for another great formula!" —B.J., Clinton Twp., MI

"I have recently bought herbs from your company and I thank God for these herbs and people like you who obey His word. I had Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma. I had battled it for three years. Only by the grace of God I was healed by the second set of Chemo, took two more sets and required a stem cell transplant. My own stem cells. Today, because of my precious Lord I am healed in Jesus name. My aunt Diane Joles introduced me to your products and they are amazing! I have rapid heart beat and palpitations, I take Kava Kava for that and it also helps me sleep. I also take MPS.-I for hot flashes and it takes care of them. My son and daughter also use the herbs. My son was diagnosed with being stressed out and passing out. Instead of Calononpen he takes N.-W and it really works! It totally clears his head and calms him. My daughter takes H.N.S.-W and it works and she loves it! We also take many other herbs. We feel the difference! We will be trying other herbs real soon! Your friend in Christ."—S. P., Granite City, IL 

"With special appreciation and gratitude to Pure Herbs products and to all of its affiliates! I wish to present you with the following notes: The products that stand out the most for me at present are, O.C.-M and C.S.-W. When I take these two with pomegranate juice they go down easily. I take these products before aerobic exercise, even when I just go for a walk, and the results are astounding for me! My blood pressure has dropped significantly. I breathe easily now. I struggle with shortness of breath on exertion, asthma and at bed time I use a C.P.A.P. machine for obstructive sleep apnea. All of this has to do with the way I breathe and I am saying that these products have improved my blood pressure and the breaths I take are less stressful and more relaxed making life a little easier for me. Thank you ever so much! Consider this my first testimonial with many more to follow. If you knew my story you’d know that any improvement is of significant value and worthy of mention and appreciation." —Ken, Lenox, MI

"When my $5000.00 Pure Herbs order arrived, I was concerned about the location where the UPS man had left the order. It could easily be knocked over by one of the company’s forklifts. So, I went out to move it to a safer place and while doing so I tripped over my own feet and landed on my knee. It didn’t hurt too badly, but immediately I applied Arnica Extract to my wounded knee and had no more pain until much later in the day. I reapplied the Arnica and was pain free again. Before bedtime I applied another dose and the next morning I was still pain free!" —C.H., Iowa

"I have struggled with water retention for the past five years. No medications have helped. I now take Celery Seed and Alfalfa capsules and have absolutely no water retention anymore. No more stiffening or swelling! My rings now fit and I’ve lost body inches! Thank you Pure herbs!" —K. S., Warren, MI 

"One hot summer day this lady was having a ‘hot flash’. She was turning red and covered in sweat. I asked her if I could help her. She replied, ‘YES’! I gave her one squirt of Peppermint Oil and told her to put it on her temples, back of her neck and across her forehead. I also told her to rub it on both of her arms. Within seconds she was no longer heated or sweaty. She was as cool as a spring breeze!" —K. B., Detroit, MI 

"Vane Eaze . . .What a fantastic product!!! When I started using the Vane Eaze I immediately felt a difference. Those little spider veins are not only unsightly, but are uncomfortable. The varicose veins feel and look better! The smell alone is wonderful! I use this product two times per day, after my shower and before I go to bed at night. For me the citrus smell helps me to relax. I would suggest ordering two tubes . . .One for you and one to share with another."— M., NJ

"We have used Spikenard and Oregon Grape internally (at a rate of 40 drops two times per day) for our son’s severe case of acne with incredible results. Nearly completely disappeared within a month. Thank you Pure Herbs for making God’s creation available to us in liquid form for quick results." —A.A., Aurora, CO

" My friend’s sister has Diverticulosis and she was in pain all of the time. Myself and a few friends put our heads together and came up with an herbal program for her along with a special diet. That is something the doctors didn’t do. Within a month or two she was out of pain. Here is what we did: Green drink 3x’s/day, Cascara Sagrada 1 capsule/day, Psyllium Seed Husk 2 capsules/day, Gentian 8-10 drops 3x’s/day, goats milk, barley broth, grains, no fried foods, no red meat and no skin or batter. She mostly ate chicken, turkey, fish or olive oil. Thank God for Pure Herbs." —C.S, Warren, MI

"I was having problems with my eyes. They would get blurry and burn when I read for too long and I couldn’t read small print anymore. I called my upline and she told me to take Bilberry. Within a few weeks of taking the Bilberry my eyes have improved tremendously. They don’t get blurry or burn when I read and I can see the small print again. Thanks Pure Herbs for giving me my eyesight back!" —J.N, Cary, NC

"I have been using T.G. & P.-W for teeth sensitivity, gum bleeding and gum pain. Since using this product, my problems have improved in less than a month without the side effects prescriptions the dentist prescribed caused. I will also save a bunch of money and unnecessary pain by not having deep root cleanings since I’ve found the T.G. & P.-W. I take it internally and also use it in my water pik. Thank you Pure Herbs and Dawn Upchurch!!!" —V.L., Walled Lake, MI

"I am 13 years old. The summers here in California are very hot, and the sun is intense. I spent five hours in the pool yesterday and badly sunburned my face. I applied the Skin Lotion Plus #101 twice within an hour before bed. I was very surprised to wake up less than 12 hours later and find my sunburn completely gone. I have never experienced this quick of a recovery from a sunburn. This lotion is the best! Thank you Pure Herbs, Ltd!" —P. F., Valencia, CA

"Hoodia extract has been a great asset to my weight loss program. I started using Hoodia when I joined Weight Watchers this past Nov. I take Hoodia twice a day, on an empty stomach, between breakfast and lunch and before supper. It has curbed my cravings for sweets and assists me in keeping portions of food reasonably sized. To date, I have dropped 27 unwanted pounds and it’s a great adjunct to the Weight Watchers program . For my needs, I take 15-20 drops 2x-3x/day prior to meals (about 1/2 hour before meals). I know that Pure Herbs Hoodia is of high quality and this is always a great assurance." —S. K., Hendersonville, NC

"I have a wonderful testimonial. Our six year old son has suffered with the croup, usually twice a year, for the past several years. We looked for an alternative to the syrup usually given, which contains steroids. We purchased a bottle of Garlic & Mullein Oil. At the onset of the croup, we gave him one teaspoon of the oil every four hours (or four times daily). He felt much better even after the first dose. We continued this for about three days or until completely better. Thank you Jesus for creating natural herbs for our healing and thank you Pure Herbs for preparing them in a quality way to best benefit our bodies! God bless you!" —B.C, Dixon, IL

"I feel compelled to write another testimonial on Skin Lotion #102. My last testimonial was on my husbands dry cracking heels. I’m happy to say they are still smooth and show no signs of cracking. I still put the Skin Lotion #102 on nightly. For me, I’m in heaven. I have had a raised, scaly dark place on my leg for five years. At times I have thought this was most likely bad cells. Because it was on my leg (out of sight, out of mind) I really haven’t done anything about it and I know better than this! I started using the Skin Lotion #102 daily and to my delight after two weeks it’s completely gone! I also use the lotion as a moisturizer on my face. I’m thrilled that I finally have something herbal to put on my skin. Once again, thank you Pure Herbs for making my life better."—A.H., Sterling Hgts, MI

"I have always had very good results with Sports Cream Plus. I decided to order Sports Cream Extra Strength. I am so impressed with this cream! The first thing I noticed was the consistency of this cream was more smooth and somewhat more liquid. It feltvelvet smooth in my hand and when I applied it to any area it was absorbed very quickly. I could feel it working as I was applying it. The smell is very soothing and relaxing. I have had great results and I am very impressed so I will continue to use and share the good news of this products! Thank you for such a wonderful product." —Marcella, NJ

"January 2006, I didn’t fall, but I did give myself a hard twist to keep from falling. Mid January I went for an MRI to see what damage I had done. The MRI showed a severe bulge at L3, 4 & 5 with nerve entrapment, knee damage which was medial meniscus and torn ligaments. I went back for another MRI in September and it showed a mild disc bulge at L3, but no nerve entrapment. The medial meniscus tear and ligaments were showing signs of healing and there was no inflammation. My program consisted of DSK., CA.-W, B.D.R.-C and Ol Number 11 all taken internally, one tsp. two times per day. Some days I would take the herbs three to four times per day to relieve the discomfort. I also juiced fresh vegetables every morning and drank 12 oz a day. I applied Vitamin E, Arnica Oil Blend, DSK., CA.-W, Ol Number 11 and B.D.R.-C topically to the spine and knee at night just before going to bed. For the first two months I walked with a cane because of the discomfort in the right leg. I went to the chiropractor one time per week for the first two months and than one time per month thereafter. I also had therapeutic massages once every two weeks for two months and then one time per month. After six to eight weeks I could tell the swelling in the disc was better and not pinching my nerves anymore. I still take three droppers full of the above formulas two times a day and probably will the rest of my life. The doctors told me that at my age (63) that the body would not heal. I proved them wrong! Every Monday evening I tap dance with our daughter and granddaughter. There is no pain in the back or in my knee! A good herbal program is powerful if you are committed to heal your body without surgery or drugs, no matter what age you are! Thank you Pure Herbs for your high quality products!"—Jean Kinnett, Lawrenceburg, IN

"Here is my testimonial on Five Oils. The coolest time of day to tend to flowers is evening after 7pm. Usually, the drawback was mosquitoes and their bites. Well, I used a fair amount of the Five Oils on my arms, face and any exposed areas of my body. I usually wear a long sleeve shirt, hat and look as though I’m going on an African safari. That’s changed now! No bites, stings, etc. All these flying critters keep their distance. Gardening has become a joy. Also, I love the fragrance of the blend. What a great product!" —Sheila, Hendersonville, NC

"I recently was vacationing down in Mexico and ended up with a nasty sunburn. Luckily I had my Skin Lotion Plus #101 scented with Lavender with me. I know from past experience that Lavender is really good for any kind of burn pain. I rubbed the lotion everywhere I was sunburned. Within seconds the awful pain was gone and within about a day most of the redness was gone. I was pleasantly relieved! I also used the lotion in the evening before bedtime on a couple of nasty blisters that were on my feet from walking so much. By the next morning the blisters felt better and I was able to walk without pain. I will never go on vacation without my Skin Lotion #101!" —Kim @ Pure Herbs, Ltd., Sterling Hgts, MI

"My husband recently had the flu. Because of what I know about flu shots, we do not take them. Although he is never sick, walks every day and eats right, he had been under a great deal of stress at work and had been in a really bad mood for months. He had a fever the second night of over 101. I put him in a ‘Ginger and Epson Salt bath" to sweat out his fever (Epson Salt is not to be used with diabetics). I did this not to get rid of the fever, but to bring it down. He also did Garlic Suppositories as an antibiotic. On the second day, he began taking Wild Rose Hips 10-20 drops every couple of hours. He also stayed away from sugar (which suppresses the immune system). After two days the flu symptoms were over but wait . . . it gets better. He has been carrying a small bottle of Wild Rose Hips and taking drops throughout the day. He told me this morning it is acting as an anti-inflammatory and that his joints no longer hurt. He is feeling better and his mood has improved tremendously. He is so excited that he read up on the Wild Rose Hips and found out that in addition to giving a sense of well-being and acting as an anti-inflammatory, Wild Rose Hips is also a poison antidote. Thanks Pure Herbs for making another one of God’s natural products available."—Lynnette O., CNHP, Cartersville, Ga

"Recently I had a time with an attack of scleredema on my ankles and legs. You should have seen how blood red my legs were and they were very painful too. I started putting Vitamin E on them first and then I applied Oil of Cajeput. When I ran out of the Cajeput I then applied the Vitamin E and Wintergreen Oil. I did this three times a day. I can’t believe how it helped the pain and how quickly I got better. I need larger bottles because this is something I must have on hand! I told my Doctor too! Send more! Thank you Pure Herbs." —Rosalie Jacobs, Sarasota, FL

"I developed a sore place with swelling in the crease of my nose where it meets the face skin. There was also a sore lump of some kind on the nose next to the burning crease. It kept getting worse and burned a lot. I started putting Five Oils on it and I opened capsules of Vitamin E and Vitamins A & D and put them on too. The burning stopped almost at once and the swelling eased up at the same time. I worked about a week and a half with applications every time it hurt. I don’t know what you would have called my nose problem, but it is gone now and I’m happy about it!" -G. W., Sterling Hgts, MI

"Hoodia extract has been a great asset to my weight loss program. Started using Hoodia when I joined Weight Watchers this past Nov. I take Hoodia twice a day, on an empty stomach, between breakfast and lunch, and before supper. It has curbed cravings for sweets and assists me in keeping portions of food reasonably sized.

To date, I have dropped 18 unwanted pounds. For my needs, 15 drops of Hoodia is all that is needed. I know that Pure Herbs Hoodia is of high quality, and this is always a great assurance." —Sheila, Hendersonville, NC

"In addition to being a CNHP (Certified Natural Health Professional) and an active advocate and user of Pure Herbs products personally, my husband and I mentor two families in our church. One of the families has children who have Molluscum. (Molluscum contagiosum is a common childhood illness caused by a virus that occurs in about 1/200 children under the age of ten. Also, epidemic as an STD (sexually transmitted disease) among sexually active adults. All current treatment options for Mulluscum are invasive (insertion of instruments or devices), and may cause pain and discomfort — information obtained from The Center for Biomedical Research.).

After approximately a month, two bumps have disappeared and the other two are almost gone. Connor looks in the mirror and is so proud that the warts are going away. He is now looking forward to going back to school and even told his mom, ‘Look mom, when I go back to school I won’t have those things anymore!’ What a joy to see his excitement.

Restore circulation to the heart and extremities with L-carnitine. The body makes L-carnitine from protein. If there are digestive problems, it makes good sense to use a digestaid when eating protein. GINGER, GENTIAN, SWEET ROOT and D-W are good choices. Most people who are not in good health tend to have digestion problems. That is one of the reasons they are sick. As protein is digested in the body, parts of a complete high quality protein are used by the liver and kidneys to make L-carnitine. It is now fairly well documented by observation and science that this substance L-carnitine is very helpful to handle circulation problems where the heart itself does not get enough blood. This is known as cardiac ischemia. L-carnitine also helps when the arteries that are far away from the heart do not get enough blood. This is known as peripheral arterial disorder. They are developed disorders. Since they are developed they can be undeveloped. To ensure that the liver and kidneys can make enough L-carnitine a person should consume a high quality easily digested protein on a regular basis. BEE POLLEN, FIVE GOOD, PROTEIN EXTRACT, BREWER’S YEAST and YOGURT are excellent sources of such protein.—Excerpted form the copyrighted works of Dr. A. B. Howard

"THE FINEST NATURE HAS TO OFFER" is what Pure Herbs says and boy this is what you get! Lotion #101 and #102 do MOISTURIZE, SOOTHE, NOURISH, REPAIR, PROTECT, RESTORE and REVITALIZE the skin. These are big promises that do come true. In order to do all these things you have to have a large amount of the quality things in the product to do the job. Most companies put a drop or two of the good things in their product so they can list them on the label and it looks impressive. I heard someone say they could detect the scent of Vitamin E and fish oils when they first use the Skin Lotions. Be sure to shake them up first before you use them. Yes, the containers are full so you may have to use the first little bit on some really rough skin such as your elbows or heels of your feet or on your ankles. Then shake it up. When I first tested the Skin Lotions, I was in love with the #101 because it is scented with the natural oils of Lavender, Juniper and Rosemary. Now my favorite is #102 which is scented with Fennel and Greek Nuts. I like it better because it becomes odorless even quicker than #101. I use it on my face as a moisturizer. Another thing I find amazing about the lotions is every once in awhile the top layer of skin on my face has a gentle peeling. The lotion is having a deep healing effect and my skin looks wonderful. I believe many women pay lots of money to have the top layers of skin burned off. These lotions are softening, repairing, nourishing and they restore my skin gently all at the same time. And, there is none of that burning off the skin nonsense. Did I mention the lotions are very rich and thick and you do not need to use much. This isn’t your average ‘smell nice’ drugstore perfume lotion! No, it is MUCH, MUCH MORE!!! I have never been this excited about two new products before! This is just what we needed, a REPAIR KIT FOR THE SKIN!!!—Barbara Jacobs, Sterling Hgts, MI

"Dear Doctor Watkins and staff, sixteen months ago I was presented with symptoms of body lice. Doctors denied I had lice or parasites. Severe itching and burrowing ‘bugs’ became worse despite home remedies and prescriptions. I was forced to resign my job as an R.N. and withdraw from society. I prayed constantly for a healing or cure. I relocated to another state and was led (by God) to Good Life Health Food Store which carried Pure Herbs products. They started me on a parasite cleanse using Pure Herbs products. I am nearing the end of this disgusting plague. I would have committed suicide if these products and remedies had not been available." —P. S., Waskom, TX

"My friend, Bob fell off a ladder and crushed his heal on a Friday evening. I suggested he wrap it with Ol’ Number 11 till he could see a doctor. On Monday the doctor took an X-ray and told him he crushed his heel in a million pieces. He scheduled him for a Cat Scan on Thursday and surgery on Saturday. Saturday morning while waiting to be pre-oped for surgery the Doctor told him he didn’t need the surgery after all. He said, ‘You sure heal well for a 50 year old man. I’ve never seen anything like this before and I can’t explain how all those crushed fragmented pieces somehow went back into place.’ Bob wrapped his heel with Ol’ Number 11 and took 40 drops 3x/day by mouth." —J. A., Spring TX

Skin Lotion Plus #101 Gets an A+

Another testimonial . . .While I was putting my make-up on, I left the vanity drawer open and bumped into it and it took the skin right off my shin. Boy, did that hurt! Out of instinct, I applied the Skin Lotion Plus #101 because I know it is loaded with Vitamin E. I applied a little directly on the area . . . and yes it helped it right away and it didn’t have any sting to it. Just think of it, . . . A moisturizer, hand cream, face cream, that also has healing qualities that you can put in your purse, travel bag, desk drawer, camping bag, medicine cabinet, etc. GREAT!!! I can only imagine what the long term effects of using such a wonderful product will do for my skin since it has already made a huge difference in such a short amount of time. Do ya think it would slow the aging process? I do… THANK YOU!" —Barbara Jacobs @ Pure Herbs, Ltd in Sterling Hgts., MI

"I have always had flaking… I was fortunate to make the acquaintance of Pure Herbs and their wonderful staff when my company moved right next door to their old building. We formed a business relationship that has lasted throughout the years. Recently, I was called in to print flyers for a new product called ‘skin lotion plus’. It definitely got my attention because I am forever looking for ways to preserve and nourish my skin - currently spending hundreds of dollars on creams, oils and lotions (Stri Vectin & Idebenol to name a few). I was able to sample a bottle of Skin Lotion Plus #102 - with wonderful results! I have always had flaking around my nostrils regardless of the product I used. Not any more! In addition to that, my standard blemishes that occur month after month in the same places have healed and haven't come back!! I use the lotion on my face and neck right after my morning shower and if my skin soaks it up quickly, I reapply another dose. The lotion seems to target the areas that need to be healed and it is my experience that if it is not needed in a certain area that day, it will flake off immediately with a gentle rub. If my skin feels moisturized, but still a little tight, I will spritz on Evian water spray. This allows me to apply my base coat makeup on to a smooth surface. Not only have I noticed that my skin is uniform in appearance, it no longer feels oily and dry at the same time. I have found that if I have an after work function, I don't have to go home and wash my face and apply more makeup. Just a simple touch up will do. Send me a barrel!!" — T.G., Madison Hgts., MI

"This is totally amazing!!! I can hardly believe it myself. I’m going to share my story here. On Sept. 6, 2005, I began using Pure Herbs, Ltd. At this time I was very unhealthy and on eight different medications. The herbs I began with and am still using are: Broad Beans, W.L.-W and C.C.E.-W. Learning how to heal myself has been a high priority for me!!! I truly believe that this can be done with the use of natural herbs. By the third day of using the herbs my energy level had sky-rocketed! I could hardly sit still. I was up and down all day long. Physically there was a change taking place and emotionally I had hope. By the end of the first month I had lost 22 pounds. My family and friends began to take notice of the changes. I also want to tell you that I am extremely allergic to cats. Ten minutes in an area where cats were and my throat would begin to close up making it difficult to breathe. It is now eleven months later and I am eighty-three pounds lighter. I went from a size 26/28 to a size 18! I’m down to only two medications and hope to be off those soon. The real surprise bonus of all of this is that I can spend several days with cats and have very little discomfort. Who would have ever thought that this herb combination would take care of the cat allergies too!!! I do want to stress the importance of keeping your doctor updated on any and all natural products that you use. This applies to those who are under a physicians care. I’m healing and I’m excited about future possibilities. I look and feel different from the inside out. I strongly suggest you give these herbs a try! The results will surprise you!!!" —P.P., Everett, WA

"I have been a Certified Natural Health Professional for approximately two years and have been actively using Pure Herbs for about six years and recommend them for all of my clients. Although, I recommend regularly Big Five plus Two for pain and use it myself. I have never actually used a poultice. My CNHP, Teresa McCurry had told me to try it and I did. I have had a herniated disk for at least ten years and have learned to compensate by chiropractor visits when necessary, but especially by not lifting heavy objects and sleeping a certain way. I do not condemn people for using drugs, but have learned that pain pills numb my brain and not the pain! For approximately a month, I have had Sciatica pain. It was so bad for weeks that when I stood up from a sitting or lying down position I wanted to scream. This caused me to nurse it and therefore I stopped exercising which was not a good thing. It seemed that the Big Five plus Two wasn’t touching the pain for any length of time. I’ve had the disk problem for over 20 years and although chiropractic adjustments were the only thing that gave me relief, I had to stop going because of a lapse in my insurance. I finally decided to take Teresa’s advise and applied the Big Five plus Two first and then made a poultice with a gauze square soaked in Ol’ Number 11. I covered the poultice in clear food wrap (saran wrap) to seal it, rather than tape. Two days of poultices, changed every twelve hours, stopped the pain completely. I am now able to move without pain and I am back to exercising, which is one of my main preventatives for such things. I am so encouraged by this that I am telling everyone! Once again, thanks to Pure Herbs for making available the wonderful resources that God intended for us to use! Blessed by your products!"—Lynnette Oehrke., Cartersville, GA

"This past winter, a friend of mine was scheduled to have hernia repair surgery. The procedure seemed necessary, and he asked me about herbs to assist on his recovery and healing. Actually, Jack’s nutritional protocols were very good. Pure foods, water, exercise and nutritional supplements. We reviewed various herbs and we selected the following: Universal E.R. with Mimulus, R.S.T.-C, Three Bees, Arnica (externally), Formula Max, C.C.E.-W and Bilberry. He recovered rapidly and was back to his work as a physician within several weeks having energy and gratitude for the Pure Herbs he used and his healing ability."—S. Kaplowitz, NC

"I would like to share with you the herbs I used while I was pregnant with my baby boy. Daily, I took Crampbark and False Unicorn along with Partridge Berry to help strengthen the uterus and also for any cramping I experienced. As soon as I felt the on-set of cramping I took these herbs (1/2–1 tsp) and within about 1/2 hour the cramping stopped. I also took Vitamin E (four capsules/day), A.C.S. (for mineral supplementation), Nettle (for calcium supplementation) and C.C.E. in small amounts (for the bowels). When I was about six months into my pregnancy I became very sick so I took L.A.S.-JB (4–5 capsules every hour) and 1000 mg of Vitamin C (every other hour). The L.A.S.-JB cleared my sinuses and lungs and I felt so much better. The Vitamin C helped to break up the mucus. I now have a healthy, happy baby boy that I give herbs to. At about two weeks old I gave him Olive Leaf, Echinecea and A.C.S. (all at a rate of two-three drops on the bottom of each foot at each diaper changing). This helped my son, Colby to keep from getting sick by raising his immune system, especially because his older brother was always touching him and holding him with his not so clean hands (you know boys!)." —Tammy Hudson, St. Albans, VT

"Tuesday, March 28th began as any other day as I went off to work for hospice as a registered nurse. My vision seemed different to say the least. I’ve worn glasses or contacts since I was very young. I’ve also had sinus problems for many years. Too many to count! I haven’t always had the best diet, but I have used herbs and nutrition for past health issues. This was one of those times when I thought I could get away with eating and drinking the more mainstream fare. Little did I know of the troubles that were about to ensue. My vision seemed to dim, to say the least, and by mid-afternoon, I knew I had a big problem. I had emergency surgery for a detached retina. I was devastated by the loss of vision. I knew this would be quite a program I was embarking on to clean out my eyes and sinuses. My journey would not be a passage easily remedied for the faint-hearted or average layperson. I would spare no expense to strengthen what I had allowed a surgeon to repair. I started with digestion and chose gentian, along with a bowel program to cleanse and strengthen the bowel. I added E.-W (80 drops 4x/day) to repair both eyes, since eyes are sympathetic. I also took Bilberry, Formula Three, Dandelion Leaf, Purple Loosestrife, Ol’ Number 11, Gingko Combination and Protein to strengthen and nourish my eyes. In addition I rubbed Arnica, a drop or two of Peppermint Oil (for oxygenation) and R.S.T.-C on my forehead and on my temples. I also took R.S.T.-C internally (80 drops 3x/day). I also took Vitamin E with Selenium and Vitamins A & D internally and rubbed on externally for oxygenation. I also took digestaids and ‘perfect eyes’ from Nature’s Sunshine. I added Black Cohosh and C.C.E.-W for days when I felt I needed extra help. I rubbed Chickweed around my eye area on days when I felt my vision was cloudy. Finally, I added SI.-W to my herbal program when I realized that sinus problems affect hearing and vision. I have lived in such a fast-paced life for the last several years and am guilty, as is the majority of society, for reaching for convenience. As for my therapeutic program, I knew my diet had to be the very best it could be so my bowel and sinuses would not reabsorb putrefied toxins. I made sure I took in ‘real food’ and green drink at every meal. This has been a journey I would never have chosen (yet, ultimately I did, didn’t I?) and one I won’t soon forget. We all have to take responsibility for the roads we travel and why should I be any different. Hopefully, we’re paying attention to the signs along the way. Today, my vision is better (I’m legally able to drive with the eye) and I believe it will continue to increase with each day. I’ve always loved sunrises, sunsets and beautiful flowers. I include nature’s scenery daily as part of my healing journey. Life is awesome!!!" —L. Schechter, the sunny banks of Hernando Bch, FL

"I wrote to you last month about my grandson’s wife and their unborn baby who had been diagnosed with a number of birth defects . . . Some of which were Turner’s Syndrome (Dwarfism), Cystic Hygroma, Down’s Syndrome, and Congestive Heart Failure among other defects. The baby was not expected to live very long after that dire diagnosis. Well, I had good news in the last testimonial I sent in (posted in the July/August 2006 Pure Herbs Newsletter) about the baby and all that was left was a heart problem. Well, guess what? I put the mother on Formula 31, at a dosage of 40 drops three times per day and when she had a check-up with the specialist on Monday he said that all four chambers of the heart are functioning perfectly! The baby, a normal, healthy girl is expected October 1st and we are eagerly looking forward to that miracle child being here, after a grueling two months of waiting for this diagnosis. Thank you all for letting me once again share this heart-warming and encouraging testimonial! My very best to you all at Pure Herbs . . . Keep up the good work." —Jo Ann Gragg-Huffman, Chillicothe, OH

"My mother was in a nursing home some time ago. The head nurse called me and told me Mom had a stroke. I grabbed my O.C.M and went to see her. Her right eye was wide opened and her right arm had no control. I gave her a dropper full of O.C.M. every five minutes and in one hour she was singing, her arm was working and she was in control. Now, my husband, daughter and I use O.C.M. every day– six droppers a day." —Barbara Hastey, Dover NJ

"MY KNEES USED TO HURT!!! For some time now my knees hurt when I tried to bend them. They were hot and sore in places when I touched them. My knees hurt when I sat down, they hurt when I got up and they hurt when I walked. I had to keep my legs stiff when I walked to cut down on the pain. Then I found out about all the things FIVE OILS could do. I got a bottle of FIVE OILS and massaged the oils into my knees. I already knew HERBAL ADJ. (ADJUSTMENT) helped with pain so I put some of that on after the FIVE OILS. To my amazement it started to work at once to give me relief. I also learned that the herb HORSETAIL contains a lot of MSM for healthy cartilage. In my desperation I started taking a Tablespoon full of HORSETAIL every day by mouth instead of the few drops a day that I had been using. I have now been using the FIVE OILS and HERBAL ADJ. and HORSETAIL for about three weeks. Now I can bend my knees normally and use them all day. Here is the best part in the process of using these herbs . . . Not only did they take the pain away, but as far as I can tell they have also repaired my knees!!! I can tell you one definition of what happiness is. It is being able to walk, sit down and stand up again without pain! Thank you FIVE OILS, HERBAL ADJ. and HORSETAIL and thank you Pure Herbs, Ltd."—G.W., Sterling Hgts, MI

"Thank you Barb at Pure Herbs!!! You could tell I wasn’t myself the day we talked on the phone and you told me to give Formula Three a try. It worked great! It turned out that everyone in our office was stressed out. I finished the 1-oz bottle and I’m now into the 4-oz bottle! ‘Blessings’ show up when we least expect them. Thank you!!!" —Vanessa

"I just had to share with you how wonderful we think your B.& B.-W and B.& N.C.-W are. Our 14 year old dachshund had been experiencing seizures for several months and a friend suggested that I try your Pure Herbs. The seizures stopped very soon after starting her on them. We add the drops to her food every day and she has been seizure free for over a year now. We love her dearly and are very, very thankful to you."

When you consider the oxygenating, circulation stimulating, inflammation inhibiting, spasm relaxing, and pain relieving properties of each of these oils in Five Oils, it is understandable the formula is a Muscular Therapist’s Dream. The feedback is exciting from people who have rubbed on Five Oils seeking pain relief from arthritic type symptoms, injury and old surgery sites.

A man called saying that he was having excruciating pain as a result of losing a large filling from a molar. Unfortunately, work commitments prevented him from returning home for dental repair. I suggested he soak a cottonball with Five Oils and pack the molar cavity. He called the next day to happily report he had experienced pain relief in minutes and would continue this regimen until he could see his dentist.

Five Oils is the finest natural mosquito repellant in the land. Those few who say it isn’t effective, I have learned, simply need to apply more. I do not recommend misting. It should be applied full strength as one would a lotion.

"My mother has congestive heart failure and one of the valves in her heart won’t close. She was admitted to the hospital in Dec. 2005 and discharged on Jan. 6, 2006. At that time her legs and feet were swollen with fluid from top to bottom. Her stomach looked like she was eight months pregnant and her lungs had fluid build-up. She was vomiting and had a bad cough because of the fluid in her lungs. The fluid in her stomach was causing a bowel blockage because it was pressing on her intestines. My mother was literally drowning in her own body waste. My sister called a chiropractor she knew of who sells Pure Herbs products. She told them of our mother’s condition and his office shared some literature with my sister about KID-W. We bought the KID-W and started giving our mother three droppers full each day in her juice or water. After the first day, all the fluid drained out of her feet and legs except for one place in her ankle. After four days we were able to cut back on the amount of drops we gave her. After ten days my mother’s legs were normal, her stomach was flatter and her bowel movements returned to normal. She stopped coughing because her lungs were clear and was not vomiting as often. The quality of my mother’s life was greatly improved. Her heart is only pumping at 20 to 30 percent of what it should be and we know she will not be with us much longer, but it gives us a sense of relief knowing we can give her a better quality of life. Thank you for the KID-W." —D. G., Wytheville, VA

"About three years ago my wife was diagnosed with medulla carcinoma which is a rare form of thyroid cancer. I searched all over the USA trying to find help medically. There was no hope given, so we continued down the only path clear to us and she began having surgeries to cut out the cancer. Track it and cut it out was the only thing we could do. After three surgeries at the Mayo clinic in Rochester, MN we were given a God send. We heard of an Amish man named Solomon Wickey and were told to go see him. Solomon, an Iridologist and Master Herbalist put my wife on a nine week herbal regimen and a four month special diet. He said there should be improvement within about four months. Within four months she was cancer free! Thanks to Red Clover Blended, Whole Apricot, Parsley, Lapacho, food enzymes and her diet of God given foods. I can’t say enough good about herbs and those who help others and understand the healing qualities of herbs. I am now a student of herbs and am helping as many people as I can to understand there is hope and healing in the herbal way." —Darwin Covington, Walker, IA

"We love the herbs! Our family of seven uses many and are rarely ever sick or have to go to the doctor. After using the Red Root in mouthwash for about a month, one day last week I noticed a spot on the inside of my front bottom tooth that was rough and making my tongue sore. When I felt it with my finger a piece of tooth fell out! I was very upset about this especially since we don’t have dental insurance. The next morning more fell out. To my EXCITEMENT I found out it was a piece of plaque from off of my tooth. The other tooth still has a piece on it and I am applying Red Root directly to it with a cotton swab. My tooth feels clean and smooth. Thank you!" —Becky, Lee, IL

"In mid March, my grandson's wife had her first ultrasound in her second pregnancy. She was approximately 12 weeks along. It was discovered that the baby had severe Down’s Syndrome, Turner’s Syndrome (Dwarfism, and sometimes Mosaic-Turner’s, which involves sexual deformities), Cystic Hygroma (swelling of lymphatic nodes in the neck and around the back of the head), Congestive heart failure and excessive fluid which indicated that the baby was near death. The mother had also been exposed to the ‘Fifth Disease’ (Parvo-Virus B-19 in humans) and had influenza the first month of her pregnancy. How much else could possibly be wrong? We put her on a program of All Cells Salts (A.C.S.) ( for the Down’s Syndrome), Lapacho (for the lymphatic swelling of the cystic hygroma), Spirulina (for the RNA/DNA, brain activity and nourishment), all of this was added to the usual prenatal vitamins (Calcium, Magnesium and Red Raspberry). We used Buchu and Immortal Root (hard to find, but we got some). For the congestive heart failure we added 100 i.u. of Vitamin E, CoQ-10 two/day and a blend for the pituitary gland. When the mother went back to the doctor in two weeks they could not recognize the baby!!! They kept saying, ‘Is this the same baby?’ All the deformities on the head and neck were gone, the Turner’s Syndrome was gone, the Down’s Syndrome was gone, most of the fluid around the baby was gone and all the chromosomal tests indicated the baby was a normal baby girl. There is still a slight heart problem, but we will continue all of the above until tests show that is gone too! The doctors just kept saying, ‘These cases never reverse, this never happens.’ Well, he just has no idea – or maybe he does know – he had witnessed a miracle!!!! In fact, it was suggested they name her ‘Miracle’. Thank you our Merciful, Loving God for hearing our prayers. He has indeed turned our tears of mourning into tears of joy! Thank all of you at Pure Herbs for letting me share this story." —Jo Ann Gragg-Huffman, Chillicothe, OH

"I started using Tart Cherry Extract from the first day it came out. Like Columbus I discovered its source. I was only looking for help to sleep. Not only did I find the help I needed to sleep, but I also had improvement in sexual functions (erections). What I thought was lost in my 20’s, at 41 years of age is working better than ever! Even better then past performance. I take four droppers each evening."—signed name withheld, see for yourself

"I would like to share with you how herbs have helped me. I have a degenerate disc, bulging disc, bone spurs and also osteoarthritis. I had tried everything to no avail until I started using Big 5 + 2. I have had wonderful results within just a few weeks. Thank you

"I enjoyed my conversation with Kim the other day. She was very nice and kind to me and I wish to give my testimony about some of your fine products I am using. I have been using O.C.M. for several years and would not be without it. Also, I was in a severe automobile accident several years ago and my right eye was so bad they thought I would lose it. I have nerve damage now from it, but have been using Greasewood on my eye brows and my eyes have opened up more and they are better. Other people have noticed the difference in the way my eyes were sometimes almost closed and now are opening more. I also am a big believer in Bilberry, H.T. Combo, Peppermint Oil, Herbal Adjustment and Cascara Sagrada. I have also used E.-W for my eyes. I have used all of these products for several years and I am a firm believer in them and would not do without them. I would like to compliment you and your company for being such fine people and have such fine products. I am 76 years old and I work one day a week (Saturday) at one of your places that sells your herbal products. I work for Good Life in Shreveport, LA. Mrs. Betty Harbour owns the store which is family owned and operated. She and all of her family are wonderful people and a pleasure to work for. They are very knowledgeable about your products and I really appreciate them letting me work there. Thank you Pure Herbs again for being such so kind and nice to me when I called. May God Bless everyone there."

TO ALL EXPECTING MOTHERS-TO-BE!!! "I found Pure Herbs about five years ago and since then I have been helped several times. The true test came when I got pregnant last year. First, I started taking Crampbark & False Unicorn Root to increase my chance to become pregnant. Within two months we found out we were going to have a baby in October 2005. Throughout my pregnancy I took P.N.-W, Red Raspberry Leaf and Chuchuhuasi (for my immune system) three times per day. I understand everybody is different and can have a good or bad pregnancy experience, but I’ll tell you one thing I had a fantastic one! I wouldn’t want to know how it would have been without the herbs!!!!!! My own mother couldn’t believe how great I was feeling because both of her pregnancies she had the typical symptoms. I personally never got sick, I had no cravings and no other problems. I had energy from the beginning to the end. During the last six weeks I took L.6W for an easier labor. Although I did have a difficult labor I’m still amazed at how I kept myself going for over 48 hours on my feet and 29 hours of natural labor to a nine pound baby. Let me tell you that hours later I felt great! I never lost my energy or my smile. After labor I didn’t have any pain from my uterus contracting back. I also highly recommend to you Papaya Mints Extract for your colic baby. After about ten or twelve days my sons "gassy" problem disappeared and his digestive system is working 110%. He was only three weeks old when I started him on herbs. While nursing I have been taking Basil, M. & B.-A, Protein Extract and Chuchuhuasi to make my milk a better quality. Good luck to all mothers and expecting mothers. Don’t be afraid of taking theses herbs. They are our blessings. Thank you Pure Herbs for saving our health!!!"—K.W.— Sterling Hgts, MI

"Seven years ago my eye doctor told me I had cataracts on both eyes and I would need surgery. I started using E.-W as an eye wash. When I went back to the eye doctor he said I only had a slight cataract on my right eye and that my left eye was free from any signs of cataract. He also told me I was in good shape for my age. I am 84 years old and don’t want to have surgery. The doctor told me with my improved vision that I would not need surgery." —P. Lind, Corydon, IN

"I use Alfalfa every day for arthritis (two droppers two times per day). I had a cyst on my thumb knuckle and I put a drop of Alfalfa on it once a day for a couple of weeks and it disappeared. Also, when my ring finger started to hurt I did the same thing and in about a week the pain went away. My daughter also started putting Alfalfa on her fingers because she had arthritis. In only a few weeks she was pain free. It really works! Thank you Pure Herbs!" —Barbara Hastey, Dover, NJ

"Some years ago I was experiencing neck and back pain. It was becoming a ritual to roll out of bed in the mornings along with sleepless nights due to all the discomfort. After taking an MRI exam, I was diagnosed with three slipped discs in my back and a pinched nerve in my neck. The doctor recommended emergency back surgery and gave me a prescription for Vicatin. I declined the surgery and refused to take the medication. I immediately sought counsel from my herbalist who recommended reflexology (2x/week), taking liquid Vitamin C (1 tsp 4x/day), DSK (80 drops 4x/day) along with using an additional ten drops of DSK internally, Big Five + 2 and Oil of Cajeput to massage up and down my spine and on my neck. After one week my pain was slowly disappearing. After eight weeks, I was completely healed. No more sleepless nights and no more rolling myself out of bed. As an added bonus I had a lot more energy. Thanks Pure Herbs." —Gila Johnson, Cincinnati, OH

"I have been one of the testers of the Hoodia and I absolutely love it! It has decreased my appetite, helped me to stop eating all the junk (chips, cookies, candy, etc) throughout the day and it has given me more energy. When I quit smoking about a year and a half ago I gained a significant amount of weight and was very depressed about it. Now that I have been on the Hoodia for awhile I try
