Sorry to hear this Light, we'll bump it up for others.

My take would be add colloidal silver to his daily supplements to start the killing.

Hoping for the best.

Are you asking about Pharma or herbal (I'm thinking herbal because you mentioned buhner's book)

Buhner's

- Cryptolepis, Sida Acuta, and Bidens Pilosa are three herbs he recommends.


Does he have no symptoms of Babesia...or no symptoms at all (including lyme)

Lightlife,

I have Buhner's babesia book. In the book, the basic protocol is as follows and says it should be used 30-60 days and can be repeated if necessary.

cryptolepis sanguinolenta tincture - 1/2 tsp 3x day
bidens pilosa tincture - 1/2 tsp 3x day
artemisinin (or artesunate or artemisone) 100-200 mg 3x day
sida acuta tincture - 1/4 tsp 3x day (with note that some people are very sensitive to this herb and it may increase symptoms; if that happens reduce dosage)
salvia miltiorrhiza - 1/2 tsp 3x day
milk thistle seed, standardized (80% silymarin) capsules - 600-1200 mg 3x day
l-arginine - 2000 mg 3x day (DO NOT use if you have active herpes, chicken pox, or shingles)
ashwaganda - 1/2 tsp 3x day (may cause drowsiness)
riboflavin (B2) 30-40 mg 3x day (he recommends Thorne Research Riboflavin 5 phosphate 36.5 mg capsules)
tincture combo of panax ginseng, licorice, schisandra chinensis (equal parts of each) 1/2 tsp 3x day

NOTE: On www.buhnerhealinglyme, it states something quite different. Basically, combo of cryptolepis, sida acuta, and alchornea. It also says you can just use sida acuta.

Thank you WalkingbyFaith!


Interesting that Buhner suggests Artemisinin (or Artesunate which is even more concentrated) - and not the whole herb Artemisia.

THANKYOU so much.

I removed a tick four days ago. Had it tested for Lyme and some of the more prominent co infections by umass. Came back neg for all BUT babeosis microti. He has no symptoms.

Been researching ... symptoms come up in several weeks time or months, lay asymtomatic . Can be acute/ severe/low grade. Mild/ fatal

Can't find much on transmission time from tick to host but a couple spots say : more than 42 hours ... don't know if it's all bull, as it is w Lyme.

I wish there was something that could knock down transmission / infection possibilities since it is so early. Wish I could ask bruhners or Rawls or someone that understands the biochemical activities. I read l arganine may prevent ....perhaps some thing to do w the cellular changes that maybe I could influence.

HI Lightlife,

You can ask Buhner herbalists. They charge a fee but some members have used them. There is one guy highly recommended by Buhner in Massachusetts. I don't think I can post here so you can email me if you need to.
Sorry about the Babesia but its better to know and be able to take care of it.

Take care, Jo

ticks can transmit pathogens into their host in as little as 8 minutes. don't believe the lies that it take 48 hours and only 2% of ticks transmit the disease meaning you have almost a zero chance of being infected. so where are all these infected people getting their pathogens from?

Buhner also recommends that the full list of herbs, though he states it's still possible to take a 5 out of 8.

I wouldn't mess around and take everything that is recommended.

Hey everyone THANKYOU.

I ordered CSA from woodland essence while still groggy. I wish I would have ordered individual herbs. I recieved a reply from one of their assistants who kindly replied to my email to them and reccomended CSA for my son.

... That list from his book is so extensive. I count 10 herbs. It is hard to get that many herbs into my boy . I think because I'm acting preemptively or prophylacticly that I may not need to full protocol. We are still at begging of infection if transmission occurred.

I was thinking of researching l arganine a bit more and maybe giving him that plus CSA . If he has issues I'll have to rethink and regroup.


Side note:
He may already have dormant infections in him passed from me. I may wake a sleeping giant.
I could potentially wait for symptoms of babs. Not sure it would be as bad as waiting for symptoms of Lyme. I'm not plannning on waiting but don't want to stir the pot if he's got dormant Bart. Idk. He's just very healthy now.

As for the arganine I don't know much. Read older threads about giving viral infections more room to grow.

Thanks agin. What a nightmare. Sorry for all those who suffer.
