I continue to hear that certain vitamins and minerals actually feed lyme. And yet, most of us find ourselves extremely deficient in them. In my case I’m very low in iron and magnesium. What are your thoughts on having to repair a deficiency during lyme treatment? If you’re very low, would it make sense that the immune system will not perform to its full capacity unless these deficiencies are corrected to keep fighting lyme?
Sigh. I don’t subscribe to that orientation. Essentially, ALL PARASTIC BACTERIA FEED ON CERTAIN SUBSTANCES FROM OUR BODIES, that is why they live in us and not in the wild in some pond. They have to get certain substances from us because they can’t make it themselves. The treatment then focuses on making sure the body is not depleted of those substances because YOU CAN’T LIVE WITHOUT THEM EITHER. Making sure that those levels are high will keep many symptoms at bay. You also, of course treat the bacteria themselves through other means. So, in essence. YOU ARE COMPLETELY CORRECT.
If I have to get an iron infusion. How soon after can I begin to take the herbs for anemia?
I never knew I was also getting steroids with the iron, want to try another way.
Chronic Lyme stage…
