Astragalus for lyme
Dear Stephen, Why is astragalus is contraindicated for people with chronic lyme?
Definition of chronic, late-stage and “new” tick bite
Dear Stephen, I don’t remember seeing chronic, new or late-stage defined anywhere in your book. What am I?
Th2 dominant – astragalus okay to take?
Dear Stephen, Apparently I am in a Th2 dominant situation with a late stage bartonella infection – do you think in this case it’s okay to use astragalus?
Taking and going off antibiotics during pregnancy
Dear Stephen, Should I keep taking antibiotics through the end of my pregnancy and breastfeeding, or can I go off of antibiotics and trust that herbs will keep my baby from contracting lyme in utero and via breastmilk?
Recommendations for those without symptoms
Dear Stephen, I am now symptom-free after antibiotics, but I feel that it is wise to use your protocol. My question is how long would you recommend I use the protocol and should I use all recommended herbs?
Astragalus and neuro lyme
Dear Stephen, It’s believed that I have chronic lyme. My naturopath recommended Health Concerns Astra 8, which is astragalus based. He said that you only need to avoid astagalus if you have neurological lyme and he doesn’t think that I do.
Transfer Factor Multi Immune
Dear Stephen, Many lyme doctors are using Transfer Factor Multi Immune to help jump-start the immune system. I’d love to hear your thoughts on the ingredients, considering one of them is astragalus.
Turkey tail and cordyceps mushrooms
Dear Stephen, I’d like to know your opinion on Coriolus versicolor (turkey tail mushroom) extract, and Cordyceps sinensis, in the treatment of late-stage lyme.
Myelin sheath support
Dear Stephen, I have been concerned about issues with myelin sheaths. I have a lot of CNS issues and the biggest worry for me right now is the loss of sensation/numbness on mainly my right side.
