Returned visit on 03/11/1994. All lab results were normal, and A/G ratio was 1.42. This patient received Liver No. 1™ for 2 years. He remained free of
signs of hepatic toxicity. There has been no sign of relapse since the termination of therapy. The improvement in the A/G ratios indicates that the
liver’s ability to make albumin has improved considerably suggesting a marked improvement in liver function. General health was markedly improved and
no overt symptoms of Hepatitis were observed. This patient at the time Liver No. 1™ was initiated, had exhausted all traditional therapies with little
or no response. He was functionally approaching liver failure with signs of cirrhosis, hepatic portal hypertension, edema, ascites and general ill
health. Continued treatment with the Liver No. 1™ resulted in marked and sustained improvement.
