Rotating lyme herbs

by | Oct 7, 2010 | Columns, Healing Lyme, The Basics, when/how to take | 0 comments

Dear Stephen,
Do you think it is necessary to rotate herbs so the organism does not develop a resistance to what you are using? I find herbs work for about 5 months and then I have a flare of symptoms. I am currently switching from houttuynia to resveratrol and Japanese knotweed for bartonella. I used very high doses of the houttuynia for 5 months and then started to relapse two months ago. At first I thought it was herxing but there has been no improvement – just decline. Thank you.


Stephen’s response:
Some people do like to rotate herbs; in most instances I don’t think it necessary. I haven’t used houttuynia in any depth, so I can’t tell if that is one of the herbs that should be rotated. Knotweed is not such an herb.

This protocol was incredible. After only a few weeks most of my symptoms were gone. After six months all my symptoms were gone… it has given me my life back.
