Got my mthfr results and basically I do not detox properly and very low glutathione. According to my doctor i have a very fast liver and i can herx tremendously due to the poor glutathione reserve in my body.

Can anyone PLEASE give me the best way to detox as I embark on doxy, flucanazole, and azithromycin (later on..)

:(

This too will depend on your body. For me, it's all slow and easy, or I herx horribly!! I have to do treatments slowly and detox slowly.

I use foot soaks daily, oil pulling daily, lemon water daily, dry skin brushing, eating very health with lots and lots of greens, ALA (precursor to Glutithione, the "master detoxer"), Vitamin C & E for antioxidants and activated charcoal.

can i start doing these things before treatment? and what would i be detoxing off if im not killing anything (prior to tx)?

The bacteria are still going through their life cycle inside of us, so they still die and leave toxins behind - that's why we have the symptoms we do. Plus many of us have trouble detoxing well, so we have the "normal" toxins that just don't leave our bodies as quickly as they do in a healthy person.

I don't have access to a FIR sauna, which is why I didn't think of it for my last post - but I've read that this is one of the best ways to detox the Lyme toxins.

My son is taking Pinella brain nerve cleanse 15 drops in 1/2 a cup 3x a day, Alka Seltzer Gold with lemon in a cup of water, 2 tablets, once a day, and now Tri Fortify Orange (very expensive) and he seems to feel like after 2 weeks the extra detox is helping (he's been on Pinella since June). Not sure how you feel about these, but even though they taste nasty, people do seem to find them helpful.

LovemychildrenMom - I have been using pinella nerve cleanse, too...and I think of all the things I do/have done..it is working the best for me.
I couldn't tell if the Burbur was helping...so probably not.
I don't think the pinella tastes too bad - nothing compared to the sida acuta and cryptolepis. They're the worst.

I started taking Alka Seltzer Gold recently and found it helped a LOT. Only thing - it contains a lot of sodium.

I'd read enough about Pinella on here and elsewhere that I just ordered a bottle.

Nasty taste beats a herx anyday lol

If you think the Pinella is bad - forget it, the Tri Fortify Orange will make your hair curl! I feel SO bad for my son when he takes it each day, the look on his face - I tried it too, ugh. Thinking of taking it for the nerves in my hand though. Supposed to help a lot with nerve damage, maybe it will help my hand.

Glad you told me cd, about the Alka... was not sure which of the two new detoxes helped most... still not sure, they say the Tri Fortify is like a miracle, but he started that and the Alka one week apart so it's hard to tell.

The good thing about the sodium, it may make him drink more to flush out the toxins. He was not really drinking enough water.

Girlie, I was going to add Burber, not sure what to do about that - they encourage buying it as a pair with Pinella, not sure why.

What brand Pinella drops?

Is it with glycerine - no alcohol? I'm still on flagil part of the week - no alc.

It's from Nutramedix, I order online and last time I got a case. If you buy 4 you get one free and over a certain amount, free shipping - last time I think they were giving a percentage off as well. I got the bottles for like $18 each instead of $25.

The label on the bottle says Mineral Water and Ethanol (20-24%), so that may not be ok for you yet?

You can go to the Nutramedix site, they have a lot of explanation - usually Pinella is taken with Burber, I'm not sure why.

Doesn't Burbur work better than Pinella? Is Pinella Nerve Cleanse different from Pinella?

Isn't NAC also a precursor to Glutathione?

Pinella full name is Pinella Brain Nerve Cleanse - Ijust hate to type all that. Not sure how Burber relates to Pinella.

No idea about NAC, not sure what that even is...

NAC is N-Acetyl Cysteine. According to this article, "NAC is a slightly modified version of the sulfur-containing amino acid cysteine. When taken internally, NAC replenishes intracellular levels of the natural antioxidant glutathione (GSH), helping to restore cells’ ability to fight damage from reactive oxygen species (ROS)."

Horwitz tells us that ALA (Alpha Lipoic Acid) is also a precursor to glutithione (the master antioxidant, as many call it).
