How A Naturopath Desperate To Help His Best Friend Save His Wedding Led To A Huge Natural Health Discovery

The harsh South African sun scorched the orange brick roof that summer morning...

Last night Trevor had taken his beautiful fiancé Lucile to the best Greek restaurant in Cape Town. He cracked a brief smile when he realized their wedding was only two days away.

His smile quickly faded. Something was wrong...

It was happening again. Just 3 beers was all it took to trigger the attack. His big toe felt like it had been dipped in molten lava.

Panic was setting in now. His palms started to sweat.

How was he going to explain this to Lucile? She’s a petite woman, but he thought she might actually kill him if he couldn’t dance at their wedding.

His toe was already far too swollen to put on a shoe. Driving was out of the question.

He decided in that moment that he would not let this unexpected attack ruin their wedding. He’d go to every doctor in South Africa if he had to, but the clock was ticking.

Lucile was at work, so he called his best friend Vincent for a ride...

Vincent was still in school to become a naturopath. He dropped everything he was working on at the lab and showed up in a matter of minutes.

“Take me to my doctor please, it’s happening again!”

Vincent wasn’t a big fan of doctors and their drug-first agenda, but he obliged to help his friend.

After waiting almost all day in the dim and gloomy waiting room, Trevor finally got to see a doctor.

Trevor’s usual practitioner was out of town. A young doctor walked in without making any eye contact. He seemed rushed and bothered.

Trevor felt like a number instead of a human being. The doctor listened for about 10 seconds before starting to write a prescription.

Even though Trevor didn’t like the doctor, he was relieved to have a solution. After Vincent dropped him off, he called Lucile to let her know that everything was going to be okay.

But in reality, the situation was far from over…

The arrogant, young doctor failed to ask if Trevor had any allergies. He had prescribed something that could have killed him.

Luckily, Trevor realized this before taking it, but the day was a waste. It was now 7pm and Trevor was out of options for the day.

He feared that nothing could help his situation fast enough. He considered postponing the entire wedding.

Then something unexpected happened.

Vincent showed up again. He burst through the door and said he had an idea, but it was a long shot. He was carrying a burlap bag and a brown glass bottle with clear liquid in it.

With a look of determination, he said this…

“After I dropped you off, I spent the rest of the day researching uric acid and natural solutions.

We have two issues here, one is the extreme discomfort and the other is the high uric acid causing it.

I’ve brought with me 7 specific herbs that should help.

The first three herbs are willow bark, devil’s claw and boswellia. These are the best relief herbs on the planet.

The next three herbs are celery seed, nettle and birch. They are going to balance your pH and flush out the uric acid.

I also included alfalfa because it’s a super food. It will restore the vitamins and minerals that uric acid depletes.

Taking these herbs in a capsule would help, but there’s a better way.

We’re going to extract the beneficial nutrients with a medicinal alcohol solution.”

Vincent proceeded to make a huge mess in Trevor’s kitchen by grinding and mixing the herbs together.

“Let the alcohol extract the nutrients overnight and it will be ready in the morning.”

He warned Trevor that it would be potent and he’d only need a few drops.

The next morning, Trevor took 30 drops of his friend’s concoction and added it to a glass of water. It didn’t taste as bad as he’d imagined. It had a mild celery flavor.

He started feeling a bit better throughout the day. The redness and swelling gradually started to fade.

Trevor took 3 doses that day. The most improvement happened overnight. When he woke up on his wedding day he couldn't believe how good he felt.

He was even more surprised that his nagging back injury had started to feel much better as well!

The wedding went on as planned and the happy couple now jokes about how Vincent saved their marriage.

A few weeks later, Trevor heard that the arrogant doctor was fired and he couldn’t help but feel relieved.

So what happened to that concoction that Vincent made in the kitchen that night?

After helping Trevor, Vincent later learned that high uric acid causes or amplifies almost all modern ailments. The western diet is loaded with purines and other harmful substances that pump uric acid into our blood.

Vincent's wife even tried the formula for her wrist issue and had amazing results. She told Vincent if it could help her, it would help millions.

A few years later, Vincent Tones brought the formula to market in South Africa under the name Lifetones.
