Sorry bout the long link. If it does not work, just go to www.zooscape.com and

search boneset. They have lots of boneset. !st page has the bulk herb and the

second page has teabags. I purchased both. Tea bags are more expensive. You

have to strain the bulk, but it only takes a teaspoon per cup. Not too bad. I

put some stevia in it and also a little milk.

OK, even more redfaced .... it not only increased my libido, it also increased

the quality of the " o " .

Think I am hooked. LOL

I also ordered red root tincture at the same time and got into the habit of

putting that into the tea. It could be that it is the combination of the 2, I

am not sure.

Here is the " source " for the red root:

For those who decide to try this, let me know if you see the same things. In

fact I hope you do.

OK - 'splain to me oil pulling and swishing. I'll paint myself green and dance

nekkid in the moonlight if it will help.

And seriously, can anyone give me a good source for boneset tea, red root, and

artemisia annua (whole herb)?

Thanks in advance!! I'm sure the hubby would thank you too, if he happened to

read this.

Dear Connie,

Wonderful that the tea is working for the sweats!

I used it without the red root, and had no effect on my libido.

If you want to use the bulk, I think Buhner has instructions on

that. I just boiled the bulk tea very slowly for 10 minutes and let

it sit without fire for 5 minutes. (my own way).

I think B has something about the history of the tea - its use by

Native Americans.

Thanks for the great link, Connie! I hadn't had any luck locating the

tea bags, and now I know they're worth it. I had my heart set on

Boneset over the summer but my health food store didn't have it, and

I decided to pass on ordering any since my Bowen test was negative

for Babesia. Should have gone with my instincts. *sigh*

I wonder if it's not the Boneset specifically (although Buhner does

say Boneset is *exceptionally* useful), but the general

improvement in Babesia. I had those same effects after rifing for

Babesia with Frex. Yeesh, I'm starting to think Babs has been

standing in the way of the joy in my life, especially that kind.

I've been using Red Root tincture off and on for about five months,

but I never noticed any effects from it until *after* I'd used

Artemisinin. Then it became very obvious. It had a clearing effect on

my head which was quite nice. The combination of Art, Red Root and

Boneset must be dynamite! Buhner really knows his stuff, LOL.

I do think I prefer Klinghardt's high dose Artemisinin schedule (1200-

1500 mg for 3 days) to the long term dosage, though. I made the

mistake of starting the low dose right before my period and had a day

of terrible pain, and felt worse in general, after having seen

improvement in those symptoms for months. The pain in the back of my

head was very strange and different, too. So I stopped it. Then

restarted a couple weeks later on the high dose and tolerated it much

better. Had an almost constant feeling of feverishness, was *very*

tired, and ended up sleeping more than usual (during the day), but it

was still easier to deal with. Plus, I had moments of blessed relief

from my feelings of depression.

Thanks, Connie!!

Did I already mention this? My Lyme-brain isn't sure. For me, it was the doxy.

When I had to switch to amoxicillin, the libido took an immediate dive. Man,

It came through late here - way the heck down in my mailbox. But it's here now.

Thanks for the sources!! I did order from somewhere else, but now I'm going to

order " yours " as well. I ain't takin' no chances.

I have NO CLIENTS today!!!!!!!! A DAY OFF!!!!!!!!!!! I'm gonna check out a

possible new PCP who may be chronic Lyme-friendly - won't treat it, but won't

roll his eyes at me and whisper to the staff either.

I'll measure some in the next couple of days because I was wondering the

same thing and have a scale (but not here at home).

But Buhner recommends hot boneset for bartonella- and there's a formula

for that in the book that doesn't involve measuring it by weight. That's

how I take it. I don't think there's a huge difference making it that

strength and then cooling it if you want to drink it cold for the other

reason.

Steve, I don't have boneset tea leaves, but can you tell me, are these

leaves or roots? I suppose they're dry, right? If you tell me how they

look like (for example, like green or black tea leaves, or if it's a

bark or so, in very tiny parts or bigger leaves etc) I can make a

simulation with something else I have with me, and measure for you in

case no one comes with answers for you...

Where did you buy the boneset leaves? I find the tincture so

expensive...

Okay, you're right - for hot tea, Buhner recommends 1 tsp of boneset

herb in 8 oz of

water. for COLD he recommends 1 oz in 1 quart - so....anybody good

with conversions?

how many 8 oz servings are in a quart?

1 qt = 32 fluid ounces

8oz = 0.25 quarts

For metric users: 1 qt makes about 1 liter water.

Hi Selma

the boneset comes in a bulk bag - i'm no expert but it looks like

shredded

green leaves and ocher colored stems possibly - looks like bits of

straw.

the leaves were from mountain rose herbs. they're organic and only a few

months from their actual harvest.

i haven't tried it yet but it smells great. i got a 1 pound bag and it

makes

the room smell like cooked oatmeal. ??

Also, boneset can cause nausea if you have too much of it at first, so

go with his recommendation of drinking 4-6 oz of it several times a day,

at least at first. I didn't pay attention and drank whole quarts of it

immediately (because that's what I do for flu) and it made me nauseous

(and I think made me herx!). It's a strong herb.

it's bitter- I add a tea bag of flavored fruity herb tea to make it more

palatable. I remember hating the taste to the point of not being able to

drink it when I first started using it for flu. It took a couple of

tries to get me to even drink it back then. Buhner (and others) says

that it doesn't work well as a tincture, so tea it is.

, did Buhner really said boneset tea is better than tincture? I

don't remember reading that in his book (he simply prescribed the

amounts for each type of use, tea, decoction, tincture). Did he

actually said that somewhere else? And he meant tea was better against

colds or for tick co-infections?

I actually don't need it for colds, as I rarely catch one, my interest

is merely on borrelia or co-infections.

I'm using the tincture these last days, that's why I ask. I use it the

way he recommends in his book, but I don't find it specially good nor

bad. It does help with chills a bit, but my ginger + cinammon tea is

much more efficient. Maybe I should go for the tea? The hot or cold??

Thanks for any info,

Selma

we drink it just like a tea. we fil half a tea ball and let it steep for at

least 5 min, and sip. i mix it with the siberian ginseng and licorice. always go

slow with new supplements. the suggested dose is in the buhner book. good luck.

Subject: [ ] Boneset tea

My doc wants me to start Boneset tea. My feet have hurt, expecially in the

morning, for years and it is looking like I may have Bartonella. I am quite

sensitive to any change in supplements or herbs. Do I just put a tsp or so of

the Boneset in a cup and pour boiling water on it and let it sit for a while or

should I actually boil the herb in the water for a while? The only advice I was

given was to wait until it cools to drink it because it causes some to be

nauseous when it is hot.

Also how much of this do people take. Is it a cup spread out over a day or 2 or

am I aiming for a cup several times a day.

Thanks for any experiences.
