Hello everyone,
Quick background:
Dealt with mystery problem for years. Problem is psychological, mental, like my brain balancing on knifes edge, visual/auditory effects as well as physical feels.
Tried various alternative health things before getting a lyme test. Test came positive for IGg antibodies (ELISA) and I think westernblot immunoassay too. I'm pretty sure I have lyme. I'm from Maine and spent a lot of time outdoors. I'm just not sick. There's a couple other symptoms, but ya I'm not like sick. I think I have a really unique mental reaction to lyme potentially in part because of what I went through from a car accident, idk.
Anyways...
I am now about
to head off for a two month long healing getaway and I have hundreds of dollars worth of supplements/herbs/tinctures.
This is where it gets confusing.
I am basically trying to combine a bunch of stuff from the Cowden protocol and a bunch of stuff from Buhner's recommendations (I have his book) as well as a couple things I want to throw in. Ya, I think I may need some help. At the very least, it would be nice to get some opinion.
Here's what I have purchased thus far:
I purchased the Cowden month 3 package as it was the best deal out of all of the Cowden monthly packages, by far.
Here is a link to that -> https://www.nutramedix.com/cowden-support-program-month-3.html
This is what is in it:
Banderol (2oz) – Microbial Defense (1)
Burbur-Pinella (2oz) – Detox (1)
Cumanda – Microbial Defense (2)
Magnesium Malate (1)
Mora – Microbial Defense (2)
Parsley – Detox (1)
Samento (1oz) – Microbial Defense (1)
Samento (2oz) – Microbial Defense (1)
Sealantro – Metal Detox (1)
Serrapeptase (1)
Sparga – Sulphur Detox (1)
Stevia (2oz) – Sweet Herb (1)
Stevia (1oz) – Sweet Herb (1)
Takuna (2oz) – Microbial Defense (1)
Takuna (1oz) – Microbial Defense (1)
As for Buhners recommendations, I purchased:
Skullcap
Uncaria rhynchophylla
Japanese Knotweed
Andrographis
Cats Claw is in Cowden's package (I prob have another Buhner herb in the Cowden package too lol)
Already owned most of what is below:
Schizandra
Tonic Alchemy by Dragon Herbs
Christopher's Nerve formula for migraines
-(Have had migraines every 3 months whole life)
J.Crow's Lugol Iodine
MSM Organic Sulfur
Albizia
Dragon Herbs Bupleurum/Dragon Bone Formula
ALA & L-Glutathione
Zeolite, Activated Charcoal, Bentonite
I also have done a lot of past detoxing.
Here is how I was thinking I would tackle this regimen:
Microbe defense in morning (for example, samento) and detox stuff in the afternoon(for example, burbur)(to get rid of anything killed off and to limit herx, I think). I guess I would take anything else in the middle of the day or afternoon/later in day.
I know Cowden has a whole protocol designed to be followed in order from month 1, but I am quite certain the herbs/tinctures will still be effective done this way right? Can I combine it will Buhner recommendations or something else such as schizandra? Then there is: activated coconut charcoal, zeolite and bentonite clay, which I am unsure about
and which I think Cowden said not to use unless really necessary...
If I could get some help I would really really appreciate it.
If anyone thinks I should speak to someone over the phone and knows of someone I can speak to, that is cool too. I am all ears.
Thanks again for any help
