I have several bottles of liposomal resveratro from Let’s Talk Health company. Do you know if this will suffice for the resveratrol you recommend as part of the core protocol? Thanks!
This is to make the resveratrol more absorbable in the body, however, my real intention was not to suggest resveratrol but rather knotweed root. And the brands I suggested were actually standardized knotweed root, not primarily resveratrol. This product is fine but it appears to be just plain resveratrol from an unidentified source. It will help and it will be absorbed well but knotweed is what I really prefer.

Earthwalker is the username that PT founder Julie Genser created for her online interactions so many years ago when first creating Planet Thrive.

Julie's (Earthwalker's) life was derailed over twenty years ago when she had a very large organic mercury exposure after she naively used a mouth thermometer to measure the temperature of just-boiled milk while making her very first pizza at home. The mercury instantly expanded into a gas form and exploded out the back of the thermometer right into her face. Unaware that mercury was the third most neurotoxic element on Earth, Julie had no idea she had just received a very high dose of a poisonous substance.
A series of subsequent toxic exposures over the next few years -- to smoke from two fires (including 9/11), toxic mold, lyme disease, and chemical injuries -- caused catastrophic damage to her health. While figuring out how to survive day-to-day, and often minute-to-minute, she created Planet Thrive to help others avoid some of the misdiagnoses and struggles she had experienced.
She has clawed her way over many health mountains to get to where she is today. She is excited to bring the latest iteration of Planet Thrive to the chronic illness community.
In 2019, Julie published her very first cookbook e-book called Low Lectin Lunches (+ Dinners, Too!) after discovering how a low lectin, gluten free diet was helping manage her chronic fascia/muscle pain.
Dear Stephen, I have been using cats claw and knotweedn with great success for my lyme, however, i have been experiencing buning and pain in my lower back. I really felt like it was kidney pain. I stopped taking cats claw and after about 3-5 days the pain subsided. I again tried the cats claw and the pain returned. I am just trying a very tiny dose and the pain is returning again!!!!! i am so discouraged because i could tell it was making a huge difference. i am so sensitive to medication. I was on penicillin for 3 months and it was really helping as well. After 3 months it started hurting my kidneys and i developed an allergic rash. My body seems to get sensitized and i dont know what to do. Anyway, is there other herbal i might try to replace the cats claw? I would so appreciate any thoughts you might regarding a possible subsitute. Thank you so much.
