Andrographis – one too many blood thinners?

by | Apr 6, 2012 | andrographis, Columns, Healing Lyme, Herbs | 2 comments

Dear Stephen,
I live in Sydney, Australia. I love your website. I have just started taking Andrographis paniculata 200mg and see that it is a blood thinner. As I also take hawthorn berry 500mg x 2 daily and bromelain 500 mg daily and fish oil, could these be too many blood thinners? I really appreciate your advice. Thank you.
Stephen’s response:
Well, if you begin to experience blood that is very slow to clot, then yes it would be too much. Usually I just pay attention to what my body does in response rather than trying a one size fits all approach. If I cut myself and it doesn’t clot, then I alter the mix. (Thanks for the kind comments.)
Stephen

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.

    Is there any effective cure for african trypanosomiasis and chagas disease or kissing bug disease?

    Rose, you might find something in the books: Herbal Anti-biotics and Herbal Anti-virals, not on these specific diseases but on others with a similar profile. I.e. bacteriological family, physical manifistations or other
