Lyme disease is one of the fastest growing insect borne infections in the United States. More than 450,000 people each are diagnosed with Lyme Disease. For me, personally and professionally this is not a new infection I have been dealing with my son who has had Lyme disease and other tick borne infections since the age 13
I was featured on Remedies - a 9 part series on integrative approaches to various disease. In the part on Lyme I was with Stephen Buehner- author of Healing Lyme. The ‘ out of the box’ approaches to Lyme are not new to me. I have using out of the box treatments for many years. I have been using herbs as Cat’s Claw, Wormwood, Japanese knotweed , Andrographis and many more for years. In a John Hopkins study in 2020 it was found that both Cat’s Claw ( Unicaria tomentrosa) and Wormwood/sweet Annie ( Artemesia annua) were effective in killing Borrelia - and even more effective than the conventional antibiotic , doxycycline.
I have used intravenous treatments, and bee venom therapy to treat my son. Both very very effective. If your health care practitioner doesn’t use or know the other treatments he/ she should refer to a health care practitioner than uses those treatments. I have referred many of my patients to Harold Robbins for ozone therapy. The early detection and treatment of Lyme gives the patient the best chance. Unfortunately many patients have chronic Lyme or chronic persistent Lyme syndrome. More conventional physicians should recognize this and use proper Lyme labs to perform testing
