6-yr-old Australian girl is AIH free for the 1st time in 2.5 years!! Her parents reversed her AIH/PSC & Ulcerative colitis, NATURALLY! The doctors said she’d need a transplant. They were WRONG! With vitamins she healed in 1 year! While the parents must remain anonymous, this story will make you smile!
You CAN reverse many AI diseases with vitamins & diet. THIS IS HER DAD’S STORY:
Seeing your child chronically ill with an “incurable disease” is a devastating and soul destroying experience that no parent should have to endure. However, bringing them back to health is the most rewarding, uplifting & powerful feeling. To buck the trends of mainstream medical, expert advice for a chance to heal your child is fraught with danger. We live in a time where the system does not allow the patient to seek alternative methods healing. In Australia, the medical community will take away your child if you don’t adhere to the doctors orders. Because of this concern, I’ve requested to be anonymous with our horrible but successful journey.
Our daughter was born healthy in 2009, the first medical intervention started the day she was born receiving a vitamin K injection, the following 12 months she had more vaccines (as per the schedule) from DTP, polio, HepB, HIB and Varicella that year she had constant problems with constipation on and off as well as the inability to sleep through the night. After numerous doctor visits, she was diagnosed in 2012 with Atopic Dermatitis.
Early Jan 2013, now 3.5yrs of age she had diarrhea for 4-6weeks and abdomen pain. During her overnight stay at hospital her skin on her feet and legs become covered in bruises. She started to have pain in her joints and swelling. After a few days the purpura subsided.
In May 2013, she suffered another 4 weeks of abdomen pain, fever and diarrhoea which can only be described as alarming. This time her LFT’s were up and her diagnosis was HSP (Henoch-Schonlein Purpura)
In June & July of 2013 she still had diarrhea and eczema, with no end in sight.
In September 2013, We were sent to specialists in a larger city to and after 6-7 tests, they said it was IBD (Inflammatory Bowel Disease), AIH/PSC (Auto immune Hepatitis/ Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis and Ulcerative colitis. The doctors informed us that these were lifelong diseases and that she would be placed on immune suppressants as her immune system is attacking her liver and intestinal lining.
We were told in 5-8 years my little 4 year old beauty could need a liver transplant, and the drugs that were going to be prescribing may cause her bones to become brittle. When it would come time for the liver transplant they would most likely remove the large bowel so that would “cure” the Ulcerative colitis. That would mean she would be fitted with a colonoscopy bag. The treatment requires suppressing the immune system and they recommended she have further vaccinations.
The Doctors were satisfied they had come to the conclusion. My wife and I drove home battered, destroyed and helpless with a future painted so bleak.
To make matters worse, they gave her several vaccinations before we left and she had an adverse reaction to one of them. She couldn’t put pressure on her leg that was vaccinated. It was red, swollen, extremely painful and hot to touch this it made it difficult for her to walk. We tried to tell the doctors about it, but they refused to record this as a side effect because they didn’t know which vaccine was given in the leg at the time.
Once we got home we got on the internet and searched for an alternative way to help heal her somehow or another. We changed our diet to include fresh whole foods cleaned out the pantry of all things processed. Anything containing wheat /gluten was out, sugar gone and as we started to become aware of the negative affects these foods and what they do to the human body. We wanted to give her the best chance to heal so she would need nutritious clean and wholesome food. Research, research and more research……
2014 was again plagued with abdo pain, cold /flu, sore throat, rashes, itchy scalp, and tender glands behind ears, tooth abscess, ear infections. All the while on prescribed medication –Prednisolone, mesalazine and then 6mp came on board.
In Sept 2014 We spoke to various specialists in our country who kept giving us the exact same outcome -unhappy with what they said as I was desperate to find a better outcome for our daughter. Onto the internet again and found Denise Otten’s book “Curing Courtney”. I bought the book and read it.
In Early 2015, We made contact with Denise to talk to her on what she had done for Courtney; I wanted to hear her voice to see what it was all about. Denise couldn’t have been more helpful. We spent long periods on the phone discussing the finer details and kept in touch by messaging. During this time we weren’t mentally ready to stop the pharma meds as fear of retaliation from our doctors remained and that the actual belief of these drugs were there to help her. We spoke to our doctors about this and they stated they did not support this (vitamin protocol) and that if things were to decline they would take “legal action.” I understood this to be a threat to report us to the legal system to remove our daughter from our care if we were to deviate from “mainstream medical recommendations” They highlighted to us that their methods were backed by “science” and that it was the only method approved by the government. A lot of possibilities race through your mind in this situation. We decided to use the vitamin protocol in conjunction with the drugs.
In short, in May 2015, less than a month of starting the protocol her LFT’s were the lowest they had been since diagnosis. Even though the LFT’s were still not within range it was very encouraging to see such a dramatic response. We knew the vitamins were working. Then we found another holistic practitioner, Dr. Jeremy. He recommended more holistic foods and a detox diet while bathing in epson salt baths, walking with bare feet on the ground daily. Also Moringa, and ACV andcoloidal silver, fulvic minerals, celtic sea salt & probiotic suppositories.
I’ll never forget when Dr. Jeremy asked “How does it feel to have your daughter back?” It’s absolutely amazing that our dreams have come true. We thank Denise Otten and Dr. Jeremy Ayres for their encouragment and support and for giving us our lives and our daughter’s health back.
You’re welcome my new Australian friends! G’day mate!

READ, if you know ANYONE ON DEPRESSION/ANXIETY MEDS! This a story of emotional determination and strength.
“Anonymous Ann” reverses her AIH when the doctor told her she couldn’t. (We respect her anonymity) Please note: AIH occurs in many ways. Most contract it because of all of the HEP B vaccines and flu shots they’ve had. Some, get it from the SSRI drugs, (plus Hep B shots), others develop it from a combo of strong prescription meds and lots of different vaccines, etc.
“ANN’s” story is heart wrenching …but has a HAPPY ENDING!
She was depressed and on psyche meds for decades before she read CURING COURTNEY and found a new way of living!!!
Here’s her story: (It’s long, but worth reading)
My bad eating habits and depression started when I was very young sneaking sweets. In high school I became bulimic. At that point my parents took me to a psychiatrist and he diagnosed me bipolar and started me on medication. I have been on psychiatric medication for 20 plus years since that point. Some of the medications I’ve taken through the years were Seroquel, Lithobid, Trazadone, Ambien, Prozac, Ambilify, Effexor, and many others. Part of my eating disorder was eating tons of sweets and breads. At my top weight, I weighed 264 pounds. In 2009 I had a breakdown and suicidal thoughts so I ended up in a mental hospital. At that time, I was on a large amount of psychiatric meds (or SSRI’s). When I came out of the hospital, my blood values were tested in a routine doctor’s check-up and discovered elevated liver enzymes. My ALT /AST levels were in the 300/100 range. Although I had many tests done including 3 liver biopsies they could not confirm a diagnosis of anything. My gastroenterologist was the one to tell me that it could be my medication. But when I asked my psychiatrist if it could be any of my medications, he told me “IT COULD NOT BE ANY OF MY MEDICATIONS.” The Gastro doc said it could be my weight or fatty liver. Autoimmune hepatitis was suspected but not confirmed through any test. Around 2010 I was able to overcome the bulimia part of my eating disorder but continued with the overeating on sweets. I lost a great deal of weight by exercising but was still overeating. My weight dropped to 180 but my liver values were still high. I was then sent to a hepatologist in a large city out West and they did another biopsy. The only thing they added was that it could be medication related, even though my psychiatrist disagreed. I was frustrated and started researching on my own and found the book Curing Courtney. After reading it, I tried to contact Denise Otten. To my surprise she emailed me back and I started some of the vitamins and gradually made the dietary change. She was the only one to push me and tell me that I needed to stop taking the medication, with the help of a doctor.
I was taking Ambien for 3 years and was highly addicted to it for sleep. It was a struggle to get off all of my meds and have had many doctors lecture me about this since then. In November of 2015, after 9 months of being off all psychiatric medication and gradually making diet changes; MY AST/ALT DROPPED TO 41/65. This was the HAPPIEST DAY I’ve had for a long time. I learned that no matter what the doctors say; it is so important to research on your own and trust your own gut instinct. My instinct all along was that the medication was harmful to me. Now my challenge is to battle bipolar without medication. (The truth is that it NEVER really helped me in the first place.)
My eating habits are completely different from what they used to be. I eat whole foods, no flour (wheat or white), protein, fruits, veges, very limited sugar, and avoid anything that is processed. To battle depression and the bipolar, I exercise daily, do yoga, and do the things I love including riding horses.
I TRULY FEEL MUCH OF MY DEPRESSION CAME FROM EATING SO MUCH SUGAR AND JUNK ALL THE TIME.
And the LITER OF DIET SODA a day didn’t help either!!!
(I’ve given that up for water)
I currently don’t take the all the vitamins but stuck to the diet change. Also once I got off Ambien, I slept better than when I was on it! I am so grateful that I found Denise and she challenged me in a way no one had and one day at a time I am getting better. She also brought my attention to the fact that I’m sensitive to the energy and people around me and how this could be affecting me. So I now try to surround myself with positive people and animals.
I am so grateful and thankful for all the improvements I have made even though they have been gradual! “Anonymous Ann”
And thank you “ANN” for being so coachable. Getting off all those meds is an inspiration to all of us. You are my new Hero!!!
Love you Bunches!

Hooray for Shelley- She’s AIH free after months on the CURING COURTNEY protocol. Even though her AIH was a mild case, Shelley from Canada would prefer to remain anonymous…but she wants to let you know THE DIET AND VITAMINS WORK!!! Just try it. I’m so proud of her courage and determination!!! Love you girl! Here’s her story…
I went in for my yearly physical in January of 2015. The Dr called and told me my liver enzymes were elevated but not to worry. We would check them in 3 months and they should return to normal. He told me to avoid alcohol and eat healthy and all should be good. In April I went in for my bloodwork and not much had changed. At that point I had a CT scan and a fibroscan done. Nothing was found so I saw a hepatologist. I have had hashimoto’s for many years and the hepatologist told me that auto immune diseases travel in packs and because I am a middle aged woman with an existing autoimmune disease I most likely have AIH. I was devastated. He told me not to worry. He said that my case was mild and after doing some tests he would most likely prescribe a ‘little’ prednisone. I immediately searched for information on this disease and found Denise. I emailed her and honestly, I did not expect a response. I figured she would be way too busy to answer all the emails she must receive. Well, she answered within an hour!!! She gave me hope. I started taking all the supplements she suggested. In the meantime I tested positive for smooth muscle antibodies which can indicate AIH. Denise told me not to worry. She encouraged me to keep going and take my supplements and eat well. I gave up gluten and dairy and focused on fresh real food. My numbers began to drop immediately. It’s has now been almost a year since this journey began. My enzymes have been normal for a few months now and my Dr has told me everything looks good. I still do not know if I had AIH but whatever I did have the supplements and diet in the Curing Courtney book healed me. I have adopted a new lifestyle thanks to Denise and have never felt better!
Your knowledge gave me hope but your emotional support meant even more. Not one Dr I consulted with throughout this ordeal gave me the support you gave me.

Beautiful Isabel from BELGIUM- mother of 3 girls, is AIH free and drug free for the first time in years. All the people I feature who have healed are strong, determined and bright. But with Isabel there was a huge language barrier as she’s from Belgium. So coaching her was a challenge. Isabel wanted to LIVE…and wanted a healthy life with her 3 gorgeous girls, and husband. Her story is brief because she had to dictate it, but you can FEEL her will to survive and thrive. She’s another new “sister” of mine! I’m so proud of her courage and stamina! Here’s her story:
In 2012 I was sick with a swollen foot and the doctor said I had R.A. Then after many tests to search for the cause, they told me it was AIH. I was very scared and couldn’t believe it! I was only 33 and had 3 little girls! How could this happen!!! I immediately started the traditional protocol of Prednisone for 2 years and Imuran for 3 years. I had a lot of side effects, mostly pain, anxiety and puffy cheeks.
Finally, after 2 years of feeling so horrible …while raising my 3 children, I thought there must be a better way. So I went on the internet and found Denise Otten’s book, Curing Courtney. I read it and bought the vitamins right away and found a doctor who worked with vitamins. I showed him the book and he said that’s fine but you still have to take the drugs.
I took the vitamins for 2 years and felt better and better. I wanted to wean off the drugs and Denise helped me to talk to the doctor so he could help me wean off the meds.
I have more energy and feel so much better that I was able to go back to work full time.
Now with the book and the results from these vitamins and special diet, I’m so happy to know Denise and this new way of life.

Isabel, I’m touched by your words, and send you and your adorable little girls a BIG hug. And a big thanks to your husband for supporting you on this holistic journey!!! Kisses
