Two common questions

When I first began distributing Original Limu, I put up Our Limu Story. That was in November 2007, and I haven't updated the page. I did find that people who came across the page were seeking the answers to these questions:

1) Can a person be allergic to Original Limu?

2) Why is Original Limu so expensive?

I believe that a person can be allergic to anything, either upon its first use, or at a later time after developing an allergy to the substance or food. The likelihood of being allergic to Original Limu is not greater than the likelihood of being allergic to any food, in my opinion. If one has a known allergy to seaweed, however, I wouldn't suggest that the person use Original Limu.

Apart from allergies, one can become sensitive to foods over time. I like cooking chicken with garlic & parsley seasoning, but after doing so for many years, I began to get severe, choking heartburn after going to bed. Fortunately, I solved this problem without seeking medical care, which today would mean being diagnosed with "acid reflux disease". Common professional treatment for that newly created disease often consists of expensive monthly prescriptions, to be taken before symptoms appear. I do not consider heartburn a disease. It is a common condition, and I would not think of prophylactically taking a newly marketed prescription drug for it. I now use less seasoning (it's the garlic that gets me) on my chicken, and I purchase generic Tums at Target. I do not take the Tums before I actually have heartburn. This means I don't take very many of them!

Original Limu is expensive for at least a couple of reasons. One is the fact that it is sold through a multi-level marketing plan. Pricey products seem to go with that territory. Those who are interested in using food supplements and natural products for health reasons ought to know that the goal is to enhance their health and minimize the necessity of using doctors. When you look at it that way, Original Limu does not seem so expensive after all.

These questions were my own, prior to becoming a distributor, although the first was resolved after I had been a customer, researcher and user of the product. The price still bothers me, because I believe everyone should have full access to both standard medical care, and the health-enhancing products they need - regardless of their financial position.
