Comments:
Fourteen months ago a friend told me about Xango, because he knew that I had been ill for years. I had been medically treated for Rheumatoid Arthritis for over 14 years and I was worse not better. I was using a cane to walk, was legally handicapped, and ready for a wheel chair. Today, I am off of all medication, and can do water aerobics 3X per week for two hours. My life has dramtically changed due to this wonderful juice. I couldn't help telling other about my miracle. Many of my friends and relatives now are users and are experiencing their own dramatic life changes. I know that there are unscrupulous people in this world. I have seen Xango take those people out of it's business. I do understand that the FTC must take a stand against the bad people. Those people can show up in any business. Enron is the best example. I used to work in the field of substance abuse. I heard many stories of family members that were defrauded their own families. I do believe that each person that encounters someone who would like to take advantage of them in a negative way must be responsible for their own decisions. Xango is not a company that is promoting make up, or gas pellets, or something that is not a positive and necessary part of a persons health and life. It would be extremely burdonsome to try to find 10 other distributors in my area before I help my family and friends to feel better with Xango. I am strongly opposed to the privacy rules that FTC is proposing. The potential for ID theft is hazardous. Xango is a world wide company. It would be devastating not only to the finacial aspects of everyday people who use Xango, but also to their health. There should not be a "blanket" ruling for all direct marketing regulation. Xango is an exceptional company. I have been in business for most of my adult life and cannot say enough good things about how it conducts it's business. I spent the time effort and energy to invistigate Xango before I exposed my family to the company. One of the greatest benefits that the company has given is that when someone is unscrupulous or doing the incorrect marketing and representation, Xango has removed them from the business. We who use Xango are most interested in keeping this company above board and policed internally. It benefits all of us. I have a three year old grandson with autism that now will climb up in my lap because he drinks a little Xango daily. His therapist is amazed at his progress. I have a good friend who was down to 135 pounds with leukemia, he is 6'2". He couldn't get out of bed. With his doctors and Xango, while still taking chemotherapy, his blood count was normal. He was released to go back to work, he is a high school ref, a ball player, and a businessman. His doctors released him to return to his normal life just six weeks after drinking Xango. He is now 210 pounds and happily telling all of his friends and family about this product. Many doctors and nurses are looking at the medical research that is available and becoming users themselves. I appreciated the oversite of FTC in the matters of marketing companies that are misleading. We have been approached by many over the years and have turned them down sometimes with gentilitiy, sometimes not. We would be greatly disturbed to have Xango, a wonderful company placed in the same crosshairs for oversite as those unscruplous companies. I would be extremely happy to testify for this product and company and assist the FTC in any manner possible to try to rectify this matter in a positive fashion. Cynthia O'Lear
