Naturally Plus Super Lutein and Izumio – My Experience
My dad was diagnosed with liver cancer in 2010, he had half his liver removed and did a couple of TACE and was doing great. Beginning of last year, he was told TACE no longer worked for him and he needed to start oral chemo drug (Nexavar).
After hearing about all the great things Super Lutein and Izumio can do (from the Super Lutein and Izumio Resource Group), we were hopeful and we started our father on the product March last year.
I was interested in the business myself, but I’m the sort who needs to know the product works before I can promote.
We bought 2 years supply and spent RM9403. We wanted to believe in what the product could do, we wanted to be the success story and hence were willing to spend the money.
From 3 caps of Super Lutein + 2, 3 packs of Izumio up to 15~20 caps of Super Lutein + 5 packs of Izumio, we didn’t see improvement in my father. The cancer marker continued to climb higher. What‘s more, he hated taking the supplements, he wasn’t looking forward to ‘Izumio or Super Lutein’ time.
His health was deteriorating gradually overtime, so, maybe, Super Lutein and Izumio were helping to slow down the process. I don’t know.
However, if you’d read some of the success stories, or miracles the product can do, i.e. healing cancer solely on the product, curing eczema, improving eyesight, and helping with any ailments imaginable; we have high expectations.
Some people in the Super Lutein and Izumio Resource Group wanted to know how my dad was doing, and I shared the updates. Bad for business I guess, for I have no good news to tell, it was always ‘my dad’s cancer marker is going up after x-packs, x-capsules per day‘. Eventually, my dad requested to stop Super Lutein (too many capsules to take) and continued only with Izumio. We let him decide.
I shared some of my own experience in using the Super Lutein and Izumio Resource group as well, but no success stories too.
I had a very bad rash behind my ear from an allergy reaction, I was told applying Izumio on that area will help. It didn’t work for me. The rash stayed with me for almost 2 months before it went away on its own.
I got a very bad burn on my forearm, I was told applying Izumio on the burn will help. It didn’t work for me.
I took Super Lutein for overall well being, but every time I took it, I got a migraine attack. It may well be a healing process, but I got an attack and I just shared my experience.
I was told taking Izumio will cure sore throat and flu, it didn’t help the girls or me, but propolis spray did wonders.
I guess I was not a good user experience example for marketing and business. While everyone in the group was sharing success stories, I had none.
2 weeks ago, my dad lost his fight with cancer.
I got booted out from the Super Lutein and Izumio Resource Group, not sure if it was not long before my father passed away or soon after. The intention of removing me from the group was perhaps to prevent me from sharing my father’s deteriorating health and his passing.
I suppose MLM group, Product group, only wants you to hear the good things, positive feedback and the success stories; but shun frank but unfavourable feedback or failure stories of the product.
In my opinion, do not believe and take everything you read for granted, be your own judge.
Disclaimer : This is totally based on my experience. I’m not against the product, I’m still a consumer, and belief there’s some health benefit to be gained.
Hi. How are you doing? I am so sorry that this has happened to you. I believe it is very insensitive of the group to remove you, especially so soon after the passing of your father. It is a resource group for goodness sake and not some highly secret group. Firstly, they should not be taking negative feedbacks so personally. When they have 50 success stories, what is the 1 unsuccessful story? Instead of showing empathy and compassion, they chose to remove you. This is not right.
I am taking SL for overall well-being as well. I feel good but I don’t see any improvement on myself on certain things that this product is famous for. Perhaps some things work and some don’t. Well, if they read what I have commented here, perhaps I will be the next one who get booted out.
Sorry to hear ZMM. Immature for the group to have kicked you out. Goes to show they only want to hear good stuff. Typical of a MLM company.
They have to realise that not all remedies will work for all like how some common drugs do not work for everyone. While generally it may work for most people, there will be a few that may have adverse effects from it. I heard from a friend that she had an allergy attack after taking izumio.
My dad’s condition is also bad and was asked to take these. But he already has to consume so many types of drugs for his condition that I have no heart to let him try these.
Thank you for sharing though.
Thank you for telling your experience. I have my doubts about these two products because if they are miracle products, the big pharmaceutical companies would have already got onto the band wagon but I see so many bloggers going to the “dark side” by consuming them and earning big bucks from promoting them to their friends. We cannot be sure how much of their good experience comes from “the placebo effect” or from “their positive mindset” meaning that the ailments that they are experiencing were naturally healed by their body after they cleared their mind of worries and because they believe that the products work and also sometimes they are still taking western medications being prescribed to them by western doctors.
I have been reading your blog for many years now but seldom comment. When I read your this post title, I thought to myself, “oh, no, not another good blogger went over to the dark side” but luckily I read on and found that you are brave enough to speak the truth.
Sorry to hear about your loss.
Did you finish consuming all the products that you have bought?
Hi,
I’m sorry for your loss. I pray your dad will be in a better place now. I lost my dad to cancer 13 years ago.
I’ve enjoyed your blog, especially travels with your kids which I love to emulate. I’ve been reading other blogs too and recently most of the moms’ blog have been promoting SL and Izumio and I wondered too, how these two expensive supplements claimed to cure all health issues including the big C. Thanks for your truthful as well as unbiased review. At least there is the other side of the story.
