I swear Ive herxed from CE's 2x. Normally I would feel great after.

Ive searched past posts about CE's and herxing, and found some who've herxed after. Then I found some who've herxed after taking Glutathione.

I was wondering, if Glutathione causes herxing, wouldn't it also follow that CE's may induce herxing too given that CEs induce the liver to produce 700x the amount of Glutathione in the body?

Please correct me if I have some facts mixed up.☺

Nope, that's right. It can 'release' too many toxins from the tissues and liver and overwhelm the body with toxins again - in other words, herxing.

Some have taken to calling it over detoxing: www.tiredoflyme.com/4-reasons-why-you-still-feel-bad-despite-detoxing.html

Hi Skyy!

It's possible to herx from a CE. It's possible to herx from glutathione dosing.

I'm having trouble connecting both sides of your equation. I've not been too useful lately, lol.

Hi Traveller. Thank you so much for the link! So, it is a herx from detoxing...and is called by some as over-detoxing. I never thought of that. I think that answers my question. =)

Hi July. I was wondering about this for the past days. The first time i herxed i thought, "nah...coincidence." The second time, i searched for a definitive answer from Mr. Google, but found none. LOL. I just think that the CE is a great detoxification method once we get over the "ick!" factor. It does take a bit of preparation and practice, though. Hygiene is something to watch out for, too.

Sorry for the TMI...

I'm glad we could be of help!

Mr. Google is my best friend, but you do have to know how to outsmart the bots - using different search terms sometimes is all that's needed though.

For information on herxing, use terms like Jarrisch-herxheimer reaction (it's full name) and for Lyme use Borrelia.
