Cetyl Myristoleate (CMO)

<< back : 3 of 3

Harry W. Diehl was born in 1910 in Harrisonburg, VA. Considered by many as one of the most brilliant natural talents in chemistry they have ever seen, Diehl retired in 1974 after 40 years of service at the National Institutes of Health in the Laboratory of Chemistry of the National Institute of Arthritis, Metabolic, and Digestive Diseases. He discovered cetyl myristoleate in 1964. Diehl was led to the discovery of cetyl myristoleate through his concern in 1953 about a neighbor’s pain and disability from rheumatoid arthritis. Mr. Diehl pursued the scientific fact that mice do not get arthritis and discovered cetyl myristoleate through his exhaustive investigations and analysis. As he put it, "My discovery of cetyl myristoleate was a lot of hard work and a lot of old fashioned chemical cooking."

Diehl’s research on cetyl myristoleate was published in the March 1994 issue of the American Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, the prestigious peer review journal of the American Pharmaceutical Association and the American Chemical Society. Diehl received two U.S. Patents on cetyl myristoleate, the first in 1977 for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis and then in 1996 for osteoarthritis.

An award winning researcher, Diehl developed over 500 new compounds, several of which were patented by the U.S. Patent Office. Diehl was recognized in 1958 for developing a new method of preparing 2-deoxy-d-ribose, a sugar found in deoxyribonucleic acid. This sugar is of vital importance to much basic research, and was used by Jonas Salk, M.D., as a culture medium to grow the Salk polio vaccine virus. Diehl’s process was published in Biochemical Preparations, one of the most authoritative volumes on the subject.

Harry Weldon Diehl died after a short illness in Charlottesville, Virginia on December 22, 1999 at the age of 89. In life, Harry Diehl was a tower of strength. He has left behind a legacy of hope.

TESTIMONIALS FOR CETYLPURE™ and CETYL MYRISTOLEATE

The following are unsolicited letters
to Natrol from users of CetylPure™
and Cetyl Myristoleate

August 28, 2000

To the CEO
Natrol, Inc.
Chatsworth, CA

Sir,

I could not let this opportunity pass by without informing you of what Cetyl Myristoleate has done in our lives.

My husband Harry was diagnosed with Lumbar Radiculites and I with neuropathy/radicutopathy. His MRI revealed that he has Severe Degenerative Disease of the Lumbar Spine.

For seven months he has been getting chiropractic care, pain medications, physical therapy, acupuncture, wearing the TENS unit including Duragesic patch. His daily activities were gone and he was confined to the home. His only relief was in bed or on the floor, hot and cold packs daily to his back, excruciating pain constantly.

On July 10, I visited Nutrition Smart Health Food Store and received the booklet, “Arthritis and Cetyl Myristoleate” from Dr. Chuck Cochran. I explained to him our diagnosis and asked for his advise. He introduced this product to me and encouraged me to try it.

With great eagerness I bought the product, took it home all excited about it to my husband. That same evening was our initial dose. Ten days after taking CetylPure, my husband woke up one morning with no pain in his leg. This continued for the day and subsequent days, he was pain free. Every one who knew of the pain that he had been having failed to believe that the pain just went. It has now been six weeks without pain. No more surgery as we were planning. Thanks for such a wonderful change in our lives, and for bringing CetylPure to our neighborhood store.

It's a miracle and I thank God for Alternative Medicine and people like you and your staff. My question is this - "How long should we continue with the maintenance supplement? The store does not have the individual supplement bottle, and I do not want to be without it.

Anticipating a favorable reply. We remain

Sincerely yours,
Gloria and Harry Whyte
Miramar, FL

To Whom it May Concern:

I have been taking CetylPure for about 6 weeks now. I have severe arthritis in my upper arm and shoulder area due to a break several years ago. The arthritis has been so bad that I have been unable to lift my arm or extend it without a great deal of pain. The lack of use in my arm has caused me to turn down much needed work.

I have taken prescriptions for anti-inflammatories but they are not good to take long term and can cause other organ damage. The CetylPure has helped me immensely. I have been able to go off my prescription and return to work. The use of my arm has returned about 85 to 95 percent. I think it is a very good product

Sincerely,
Mr. Michael Liakos

To Whom It May Concern:

In reference to your CetylPure product, I have been taking it for about a month now. The product really works for pain of arthritis in my hands. The swelling in my knuckles has improved as well.

When I have missed the midday supplements on a few occasions, it was noticeable. When I continued taking the product, I felt it working again. I have less stiffness in my hands now.
