what Konjola did for me was
really remarkable. was severely
troubled with asthma and bothered
with a wheeling cough that would
last for weeks at time. At times
it felt as though some one was
pressing hard against my chest and
this pressure against my heart made
it almost impossible for me to
breathe. Sometimes this condition
made me so weak I could hardly
walk. I was also very nervous.

I didn't have much confidence in it,
but after the first week was really
surprised. I could notice a change
in my condition and within another
weeks time there was new feeling
of health over my entire system.
That congested feeling in my chest
has disappeared and I am no longer
troubled with shortness of breath.
It stopped that cough and strength
ened my nerves considerably, so
that I never lie awake at night any
more and noises and crowds do not
