Dear Stephen, For inflammatory conditions associated with lyme, how many mg of turmeric would you recommend daily?
The Basics
Sida acuta dosage
Dear Stephen, Can you let me know what dose you are suggesting for Sida acuta for
babesia and suggested treatment time?
12-yr old with minor lyme symptoms
Dear Stephen, Has anyone with “mild” symptoms of lyme STARTED with the herbs, without ever doing antiobiotics, and experienced success?
Melatonin dose for children
Dear Stephen, I have a question about the melatonin dose for children. For children ages 6 and 8, would I use the “Clark’s rule” of dividing their weight in pounds by 150 (average adult’s weight)?
Stephania tetrandra tincture
Dear Stephen, I want to make a tincture from Stephania tetrandra (powdered) that was bought about 10 month ago. Can I use powdered herbs to make tinctures?
Tea infusion instead of capsules
Dear Stephen, Do you think it is possible to make a tea with all the capsules that you need for your day except for andrographis and sip it all day? Would it be as powerful this way and would the taste be bearable?
Combining tinctures
Dear Stephen, Can you combine all of the basic tinctures (knotweed, cat’s claw, eleuthero) together to take at one time?
Embryonic form of herbs better?
Dear Stephen, I just read an article from a lyme book where this practitioner Elizabeth Hesse Sheehan is stating that she believes your protocol would be even more powerful if one used the embryonic form of the herbs.
Japanese knotweed and copper contamination
Dear Stephen, In your book “Healing Lyme” you write on page 104 that Japanese
knotweed “is a potential plant in phytoremediation work as it removes copper from copper-contaminated soil and concentrates it in its roots.”
Local knotweed species
Dear Stephen, I currently live in Albuquerque; are any of the more “local” knotweeds active against lyme/borrelia?
