Alternate to Green Vibrance anyone?

Hubby wanted to join me in daily Green Vibrance consumption.

One serving of Green Vibrance contains 60mg milk thistle. Hubby takes a med that would be negatively affected by this component.

Can anyone suggest something similar to Green Vibrance without milk thistle?

Field of Greens pales in comparison...

Thanks!

Athletic Greens has milk thistle in it also. Just an FYI.

Thanks for replies. cd3764 , I believe I have long term Lyme, and have limited funds, so trying to look for what I can do. Been looking at Cowden Protocol, and thought about first trying the Pinella, in order to clear brain fog / toxins, and Burber for the herx. Can't afford the whole monthly protocol, unless I can be convinced of how much it can overcome this condition. Saw you used it and then went to another protocol. What is your thought about Pinella / Burbur use at first? Thank you.

Peggyw,

abx is an abbreviation for Antibiotics.

LDN is Low Dose Naltrexone. Some people use it for pain. I'm looking into it now. It is manufactured in doses of 50 mg, but recently there has been research into using it at lower doses of 1 to 4mg for cancer and seizure disorders (I believe).

If you are interested two websites are lowdosenaltreone.org and ldnresearchtrust.org.

If you go to the thread "New to Lyme?", which is always at the top, on of the posts gives a list of abbreviations used in the forum.

There is a lot of good stuff in there. If you have questions, just start a thread with a title that is appropriate to your question. People will chime in.

cd welcomed you. She is one of our moderators. Another is this thread. Below I am going to paste in a welcome from another moderator who isn't on the forum this week due to family activities. So these words aren't mine, but it has very comprehensive.

So here is Traveler's welcome:

"Trav's Welcome message - please feel free to copy and paste all or parts of it to share with others!

If you haven't ​yet​, it would be helpful for you to start with reading through the thread at the top of the forum titled,"New to Lyme?...Start here!!", as it is packed full of important information, symptom lists, helpful links and pdf's, how to detox when one has these infections, information on probiotics and much more. And this is another good list of possible detoxing routines: www.tiredoflyme.com/detox-methods.html


For information on finding a​n ILADS ​(International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society)​ trained​ Lyme Literate Medical Doctor(LLMD) in your area, you will need to enable your email option in your profile in order to receive any recommendations, as we don't allow doctor's names and contact info to be posted on the forum for several reasons. You can enable your email option in your profile, under 'edit profile'. Be sure to click the submit button to actually save your preference.


​You can send Traveler an email by clicking on her screen name or the small blue envelope under her screen name. She may have contact information for some LLMD's in your area as well.​ ​Please include your state (or province) and area that you would like to find a LLMD in and she will be happy to share the names that she has.


You can email the Tick-Borne Disease Alliance at medicalinfo@tbdalliance.org​ for LLMD referrals and you can go to ​tbdalliance.org​​ to learn more about these infections.


You can go to The Lyme Disease Association and search for LLMD's 3 times in a month. You have to register first. Here is the link:

ILADS has their own referral system as well:
ilads.org/ilads_media/physician-referral/


​ You will want to find an ILADS trained doctor, not one that has self proclaimed themselves as a LLMD or an ID Doc (Infectious Disease Doctor), as ID docs believe Lyme is hard to catch and easy to treat, and don't believe in the reality of chronic Lyme. Go to the ILADS site to read the new (2014) Treatment guidelines to get you started on your healing journey:

Ask questions and we'll do what we can help.
Have a good day,
