Effect on liver and kidney

by | Mar 1, 2012 | CORE PROTOCOL, Herbs, liver/kidney/bladder, Symptoms | 1 comment

Dear Stephen,
I have started to read your book “Healing Lyme” and am finding it fascinating, and I have not even gotten to the protocol. I find myself having some sort of respect for the organism that has destroyed my life. It’s very strange, in a good way. I have started some experimentation with the herbs and tindamax. It seems to be working! How do these herbs effect the liver and kidneys? How do you know if you are taking too much? Thank you for your insight into this perplexing illness.


Stephen’s response:
In general, the herbs actually help liver function, in a few instances (if you have existing Hep C) they can aggravate them. In general I suggest starting with low doses and working up. That way you will find your correct dosage. If you go higher and feel a lot worse, go back down.

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.

    You mention that most of the herbs in your protocols are helpful to the liver, but what about the kidneys? Can any of these herbs be a strain on the kidneys? Or are they also helpful in this area too?
