For those who saw success from Dr. Jernigan's at home protocol, did you follow the complete 7 steps?

I just started Borrelogen and NeuroAntitox CNS/PNS last weekend. I've been reading his latest book, and was wondering if everything mentioned in his Perfect 7 at home protocol was crucial in your healing.

Some of the detox steps are pretty intensive and require a lot of ingredients. I was wondering if anyone just followed some of the simpler detox methods and became healed or symptom free.

I'm wanting to keep it easy but don't want to sacrifice anything by not following all the necessary steps.

I've also felt a little worse since starting the Borrelogen and NeuroAntitox. It may be the salt baths I've been taking that is stirring up toxins or just coincidence. From what I understand, his herbal tinctures don't induce herxing like antibiotics.

Can anyone following/followed his protocol give me pointers on the detoxing because I feel like I'm not detoxing fast enough even with the NeuroAntitox. I just feel worse overall since starting this regimen but not near as bad while on abx . Maybe I need to do foot baths instead of full body salt baths.

I like how he doesn't recommend a ton of supplements but should I take anything else to help my body detox like milk thistle or ALA?

Maybe I just need to slow down on pushing the toxins out. Sorry I'm rambling now haha.

Any other advice?

Thanks for the info! It was very helpful.

I'll be sure to take 1 dropper, 3 times per day. I've just been wondering what's making me feel worse. I had a sinus infection this past week so it may have made things worse. It's hard to say but just trying to figure out if the Jernigan tinctures are causing any herx like feelings. From what ive read, I don't think they're the cause.

The salt baths may have been the culprit. I don't have an IR sauna yet but working on it. I can definitely do the dry brushing.

I have nattokinase and lumbrokinase that break up biofilms. Think they're as good as the Protease? I really don't want to herx any because I have to work.

I will look into supplements. What detox methods do you think are necessary besides brushing, just the saunas? I'm trying not to overdo it like I have in the past haha.

Thanks again!

well if you are coming off of lots of antibiotics, there is a lot to detox from that. sometimes it is just the toxins moving through your body that make you feel bad and it can just take time.
Jernigan natreceuticals also has a free ebook- about dealing with lyme. It is similar to Dr Jerngans protocol but there are some details you can look at. Best of luck to you.

The Hansa Center also makes a great detox tea- with about 20 different herbs in it.
I know as a patient at the hansa center, my dr there gave me specific tinctures ( homeopathic and herbal) to support either the liver kidneys or adrenals ( depending on what presented).

I can tell you the liver detox I take every day-- total liver detox by nutria west, I take this plus a liver tincture made for me.

the protease did not make me herx. I didn't herx when I started the Jernigan stuff.
I felt better right after my first two weeks at the hansa center. I mean somewhat better.,
I have been treating for 6 months now. SOmetimes I feel almost all the way better and other times I have some issues.

I am also looking into seeing a Qi Gong master I have been reading about to support my healing.

I think that detox stuff sound fine- but I would add the saunas. See if you can find somewhere to do a sauna as many times a week as you can.
I bought one for my home but they are in many places. I do 5 saunas a week and I think that is a huge help with detox.
I am happy to answer more questions for you about this protocol as they come up.
I never do the enemas, by the way. My dr said I didn't need them and they are not appealing to me!

And as for diet- I tested for allergies and have none. My dr told me gluten I fine for me :) yay- I love Gluten. He wanted me to stay low sugar, and no or very little dairy. I used to eat tons of dairy. Now I have a tiny bit in my morning coffee and allow myself a little portion of cheese or something maybe once every two weeks. BUt I enjoy my gluten every day.


Also- once you have done borellogen for a while you could try adding lymogen in there as well. It approaches treating the lyme a a different angle. I don't take lymogen but I did also take microbogen, which is another option, fo a while.
But I have been steady on the borellogen and anti tox and some other things for 6 months. and will be on it longer too.

oh another thing I did at the Hansa center was got chiropractically straightened out. I was kind of a mess and it was causing breathing problems. All the dr;s at The hansa center are also chiropractors so I first did it there. NOw I see a local chiro about once a month to maintain. All the chiro and massages you can afford are very helpful.

I'm bumping this topic. Anymore insight on making the most of Jernigan's protocol.

I'm worried im not detoxing enough since I've been on the Borrelogen for a month now and been feeling worse overall compared to before I started taking it.

It's tolerable but maybe I'm not doing enough if the detox plan Jernigan recommends. I'm only taking the Epsom salt baths, neuroantitox, and dry brushing everyday.

I don't have the funds to buy a lot of the other essential ingredients needed for the cleanses and I definitely can't afford an infrared sauna right now.

I'm trying to stick to Jernigan's book to keep it simple but I need to add some more cheap detoxing methods.

Thanks Traveler!

I asked this before I think but do you think I could/should use charcoal or cholestryamine with the Jernigan tinctures?

I have those on hand so I was wondering if it would be ideal to take those along with the Neuroantitox binder

I'm trying hard Deejavu!

I'm trying to figure out which of the Jernigan detox steps to do next. I'm thinking of the mustard foot bath and liver cleanse.

I feel better some days so I'm trying to keep patient . I found out I may have candida issues so I'm taking the molybdenum daily. So that may help a bunch and may explain my flare ups.

And def working on the diet. That may be the hardest part.

If you are on the borellogen, are you also on the anti tox? That is pretty crucial to the protocol.
