Guest guest Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 Hi Peggy, Are you currently coiling for Lyme. I have found Burbur works really well for Lyme, and Pinella works really well for Mycoplasma. I couldn't tell you how it works for the other coinfections. I think Red Clover is also a blood cleanser so you might give that a try. Also, I have listed below other blood cleansing herbs that you might find helpful. Healthy Blood Many health conditions develop from an over-acid blood pH resulting from accumulated toxins in the blood. Most of these toxins are acids formed by the natural; wastes of the body and the foods we eat, and are normally eliminated when the body's organs are functioning properly.* When a poor diet consisting of excess sugar, white flour, fatty foods, caffeine, alcohol, and chemical food additives and preservatives are consumed, the blood stream can be congested with toxins. Blood Cleanse aids in the health of the blood and is vital for life and the maintenance of a strong immune system. Following are herbal ingredients to help supply nutritional support to the blood.* back to top Blood Cleansing Nutrients Burdock Root is an excellent herbal blood purifier that detoxifies the blood and lymphatic system.* It is high in iron, and can help build blood during times of low hemoglobin.* In the botanical classification of herbs, blood purifiers help remove toxins from the blood and can also remove excess moisture that provides an environment for pathogens to grow in. Blood purifiers stimulate the immune system to fight off pathogens. Burdock root promotes healthy kidney function by working through the kidneys to remove acids from the blood.* It is especially helpful with skin conditions, and supports liver and gallbladder function by stimulating bile secretion and digestive juices.* Dandelion Root is an excellent blood purifier that neutralizes acids and has a strong alkalinizing effect on the body.* Dandelion is rich in minerals and potassium that are easy to assimilate. It has strong antioxidant activity, being high in Vitamins A and C, and supports liver and gall bladder function.* It stimulates the liver to promote detoxification of toxins.* Echinacea is recognized as one of the most powerful blood and lymphatic cleansers in the botanical kingdom.* The root is used as a tonic and blood purifier that neutralizes acid conditions and aids in lymphatic stagnation.* The chemical compounds in Echinacea that are responsible for the immune enhancing activity are polysaccharides, fatty acids and glycosides.* Echinacea enhances T-cell activity and stimulates the production of white blood cells to promote strong immune systems.* Red Clover Blossom is an excellent blood purifier that helps promote and boost the immune system.* It also has anti-inflammatory properties.* Red Clover contains compounds including genistein and daidzein. The tocopherol present in Red Clover is responsible for its antioxidant activity.* Carotenoid Complex - Carotenoids are pigments synthesized by plants that give them their orange, yellow and red colors. Along with Vitamin A and C, beta-carotene is considered an important antioxidant in nutrition.* The upper intestinal tract is responsible for converting beta-carotene into vitamin A in the body, as it is needed. Antioxidants assist the body's immune system to quench free radicals before they damage healthy cells.* Free radicals are unstable molecules that circulate in the body and can be caused by exposure to food additives and chemical preservatives, rancid oils, processed foods, radiation, UV sunlight and environmental pollution. They are responsible for many degenerative health conditions. Recent research has revealed other carotenoid compounds, found in various vegetables and fruits, that can destroy free-radical causing agents.* For example, alpha-carotene may have 10 times more powerful antioxidant activity than beta-carotene and zeaxanthin may provide even stronger protection.* The potential health benefits of carotenoids show much promise in promoting healthy heart and circulatory systems, enhancing the immune system and in providing protection against age-related and eyesight conditions* Chlorophyll is the pigment that makes plants green. Through photosynthesis, it absorbs sunlight energy and converts it into plant energy. When we consume Chlorophyll, it is transferred into our blood and cell tissue. Scientifically, its molecular structure closely resembles human hemoglobin, the pigment that makes our blood red. When taken internally, Chlorophyll can oxygenate human cells by helping to build red blood cells.* Chlorophyll neutralizes acids and toxins in the blood and helps eliminate them from the body.* Its detoxifying and immune enhancing qualities may be helpful for heavy metal build up and optimal health. Chlorophyll is rich in vitamin K. Vitamin K forms a compound in the body that inhibits the formation of calcium oxalate crystals which in turn promotes healthy kidneys* Astaxanthin is a member of the carotenoid family and is a powerful newly discovered antioxidant that helps protect against more types of free radicals than any other antioxidant. It is highly bioavailable because it binds to a lipid (fat) molecule and enters the bloodstream more readily than other antioxidants. Astaxanthin is a fat-soluble nutrient that is able to cross the blood-brain barrier, which enhances its effectiveness. The natural form of Astaxanthin is derived from the microalgae Haematococcus pluvialis and is at least 10 times more effective as an antioxidant than beta-carotene. Astaxanthin supports the immune system by increasing the production of antibody cells. The mitochondria is the site of the cell's energy production and metabolic activity. The advanced pharmaceutical technology behind Astaxanthin provides an excellent delivery system for nutrients to penetrate the mitochondria of the cell, which promotes a cleansing and therapeutic action at the cellular level. Astaxanthin enhances the actions of Vitamin C and E in the body. Astaxanthin is 100-500 times more effective than vitamin E with inhibiting lipid peroxidation, which is the destruction of fatty acids and proteins in cell membranes that can cause oxidative damage. *Cumulative, oxidative damage to lipids in cell membranes may increase the risk of age-related health conditions. Results from clinical studies testing the safety of Astaxanthin have shown no known toxicity. Choline is a lipotropic that plays an important role in metabolizing lipids like cholesterol and fat.* Lipids are fats and fat-like substances that are essential to health and are found in every human cell. The primary function of lipotropics in the body is to regulate the build up of excess fat in the liver.* Choline helps eliminate toxins from the body by supporting liver function.* Choline combines with inositol, in the body to form lecithin. Lecithin breaks up cholesterol and moves it through the bloodstream. Choline is responsible for detoxifying the metabolic waste generated by the breakdown of proteins in the body.* Folic Acid is part of the B complex family and works together with B12 in the breakdown of proteins in the body.* One of its most important roles in the human body is helping with the formation of red blood cells.* It also triggers the production of Hydrochloric Acid which can prevent intestinal problems.* Folic Acid supports liver function.* Copper is present in every cell. It is a trace mineral necessary for the conversion of iron into hemoglobin.* It is essential for the utilization of vitamin C and the absorption of iron.* It is an important blood antioxidant that keeps cells healthy.* Phosphorus plays a role in every metabolic reaction of the body because it is present in all of our cells. Phosphorus makes up a part of the molecular structure of phospholipids. Phospholipids are important constituents of cell membranes that are involved in fat metabolism as well as inhibiting the accumulation of too much acid in the blood.* For example, Lecithin is a phospholipid. Vitamin B12 is an important nutrient for the nervous system and promotes energy levels in the body.* It plays a major role in the formation and regeneration of red blood cells.* B12 works with folic acid in the breakdown of proteins. It is helpful with assisting the body to absorb carotene.* > > Hi & Steve, > > I took over half a bottle today by taking a dropperful every 15 minutes over > several hours.

Guest guest Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 Yup!! I put 110 drops in a glass and drank it down when I was herxing really hard from running Borrelia. For many months I was testing for well over 70 drops. Now since Lyme is gone, I don't test for any. BTW. Burbur doesn't seem to help Mycoplasma herxes, you need to use Pinella for that. As I told Peggy, I don't know about the coinfections. > > > > > > > > > I take 10 drops at a time in 4 oz of water and do it liberally throughout the day (3-5 times) on bad herx days. > > > > > > To: Lyme_and_Rife > > > From: twalters955@ > > > Date: Sat, 2 Apr 2011 19:04:55 -0400 > > > Subject: OT: taking burbur successfully > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > > I've seen a new LLMD who > > > diagnosed babesia, recommended treating with artemisinin (as I won't take > > > abx--they always make me very sick), and recommended burbur for detox. > > > I've taken it before in a " several times a day, every day " approach; that didn't > > > do anything for my herxes.

Guest guest Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 Hi Steve, Exercise was my preferred detox method last summer when I first started coiling--I could work out on the elliptical and sweat like crazy. Unfortunately my ability to do that is only a fond memory right now. It worked great and I look forward to getting back to it.

I know it doesn't always work for me but takes the edge off. I'm also fortunate that I can still exercise, so with a headache-herx, I go workout then sit in sauna and sweat it out. This almost always works for at least several hours, but usually for days. To: Lyme_and_Rife Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 3, 2011 Report Share Posted April 3, 2011 Hi , No, not coiling much for Lyme, maybe once a week as I don't want it to get the upper hand again but I'm too overloaded right now, so I can't afford to overdo the coiling. Babesia is my focus. I remember now that after I'd been coiling for awhile last summer I started having major problems with sweating. I didn't realize that I might have knocked back Lyme enough for babesia to come forward. All the stuff I read about babesia symptoms specified night sweats. When I mentioned this to the new LLMD this week, he dismissed that laughingly with "the bugs don't care what time it is." In the detoxifier list you posted, he also recommended the methylcobalamin form of B-12. That's on order, as the only B-12 available locally is cyanocobalamin. My order is scheduled to arrive tomorrow. Hopefully that will help. Thanks for all the info.
