Re: Nutramedix Takuna for Lyme and Viruses?

[Guest guest]

I've never heard of it but someone on lymenet is doing very well after

20 years of lyme, using the cowden protocol, and it is recommended by

one of the lyme docs now who is considered lyme literate.

Where is the post? I find the immunesupport board a little bit helter

skelter.

I didn't copy and save it, it's still at immunesupport.com. Typing in

the word " takuna " in search may get you to it there immediately.

I tried that on the Lyme message board and no results. Could it be on

another set of boards?

FYI my LLMD uses tso free Cat's Claw with quite a bit of success at

least at knocking down the bacteria. I have to confess that one

capsule of it makes me herx so badly that I haven't really used it.

I'm normally at the barely functioning level, and knowing if I take

something it's going to land me in bed for at least a few days is

difficult, espcecially as I am single.

I guess another part of it is that I've been through the whole IV

antibiotic, HBO, transfer factor, cholyestrimine,yadda yadda

routines, and while they can all make me really sick (well, not

transfer factor- that didn't do anything), nothing seems to really

have a long term positive effect, so hesitant to take something else

I know will make me sick without some idea it will really have a long

term positive effect.

Hi, .

Yeah, I got the impression the takuna product was making this woman

herx a lot, but the fact that she's now adding or switching over to

Rich's treatment suggests to me it may be limited in what it can do

despite the " herxy " action one may experience early on. But, I thought

I'd ask.

It is part of Cowden's protocol. Go to: http://www.nutramedix.cc/

then click on protocols. Somewhere on the site is a big graph showing

when and how much to take of all of the different herbals used.

I have a friend that goes to Dr. Horowitz. He has a number of

patients on it and is pleased with the progress they are making. But

like any other protocol for these illnesses there is a subset doing

really well on it and others not so well.

Best,
