Not sure what to say about the glut drops except they might just hlep. Detox

is " our " big problem with neurotoxins from bugs. The better your bio-terrain

is, the healthy you are, the better your system fights the

bugs/protozoa/yeast etc.

Makes sense to me. And vegetables - they seem to cure everything.

Oxygen - the tissue not coming back I think is lack of oxygen - what can you

do (besides very deep breathing) to increase oxygen? ...

Try breathing into your feet - As you breath in, send the breath down to

your feet - does that make sense. let me know if you want more info!

what is the 'lyme strategies group'?

I remember from long ago that pain in the pads of the feet is often

attributed to Bartonella on lyme forums. I have been tested twice for that,

both times negative. And usually people only mention pain, not the

'deforming' problems so it seems a bit different problem to me.

I have tried the full collagen support protocol from Buhner, without any

help. I'm not taking any collagen, I doubt it is much better than taking

protein in general. AFAIK you can't absorb collagen through the gut, it

needs to be digested in its amino acids first.

glutathione is a good idea for helping detox, but is it also related to

collagen support? Buhner does not mention this in his book I think, but

glutathione does a lot of things, so could be you are right about that.

I wonder if Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy would help??

I use the Pure brand - between that and a couple of other additions, the

skin on my face is so much smoother. Who knows what it's doing to the inside

- how would we tell?

Last Nov I had rotator cuff surgery, so I'm trying to prevent any more of

that nonsense.

What type or brand of collegen do you take...I have heard mixed reviews

about if it is valuable to take or not.

Thank you.

I know soles of feet hurting is a sign of Babesiosis. But never heard of pads

of hands.
