do all of buhners books have the core lyme protocol

No, only the Healing Lyme Book. The coinfection books have protocols for the coinfections

His website has enough information to kick start treatment. I began with that information, then bought three of his books. BEST INVESTMENT YET!

Just to clarify, if you buy his Healing Lyme, make sure you get the second edition as it contains an updated protocol.

since this topic is up for discussion, may i ask a quick question?

in december, i was scrambling and didn't have time to read buhner's books, so i went on his website and at least got my daughter started on the herbs. Now that I have his books, I am understanding it all better. But one thing I am confused about - he recommends both cat's claw and eleutherococcus senticosus as immune remodulators. we only need to choose one remodulator correct? bc on his website part of the core protocol included cat's claw and eleuthero. I am sensing she should only take the eleuthero in the morning bc she does not get her second dose until 3pm and it is definitely affecting her sleep patterns.

so here is my question - is it ok for her to be on both is it necessary? or can i just have her on cat's claw? I still have a ton of questions to come, but i will save them for a new thread I will start. thanks in advance for any advice!!!

Hey Chapelle! That website is not his, and it is not updated frequently, so his books are the only true source for his full protocols.

And it is not necessary to be on both at all. With most of his protocols (the main exception being his Chlamydia pneumoniae protocol) you can definitely mix and match, based on the info in the books, as needed.

Chapelle I cannot take Eleuthero because it gave me heart flutters. I only do Cat's Claw and am doing great.

I would recommend Cordyceps over eleutherococcus. It's also an immune remodulator and have noticed massive improvements with Cordyceps alone.

wow. thank you all. Peteza - you mean all you are taking is cat's claw or is cat's claw the only immune remodulator?

I don't disagree with you at all 1000 Daisies - although I'm sure it isn't of a nefarious nature, but rather his former patient trying to help others but then loses interest in updating it. Who knows.

He does say it isn't his in his books, but it would be helpful if the owner of the website made it clearer. Perhaps if we all contacted Planet Thrive (who is listed as the owner in the about section of the site) and complained about how confusing it is they would do something? Here's their Contact Us link from their other website: http://planetthrive.com/about-2/contact-us/

I had problems with cat's claw (although K didn't). So we don't use it. We use cordyceps mushroom powder. Very gentle but super!

Hi RowingMom,

Where do you source your cordyceps and how much dosage? 3x daily?

Thanks in advance :)

No, Chappelle, I am doing a slew of mushrooms with cordyceps the one most emphasized. I also do garlic, turmeric, ginkgo biloba, astragalus and fo-ti.

The one I want to try is Ganoderma (ling zhi). Gandoderma traditionally is used to tonify blood and vital energy. Ganoderma increases the number of white blood cells and inhibits the growth of various viruses and bacteria associated with the flu. It has been demonstrated to enhance the immune system in various clinical studies. The specific effects of ganoderma include an increase in monocytes, macrophages and T-lymphocytes. There is also an increased production of cytokine, interleukin, tumor necrosis factor and interferon. Furthermore, ganoderma has a broad spectrum of antibacterial activities, inhibiting the growth of pneumocci, streptocci (type A), staphylococci, e. coli, b. dysentarie and pseudomonas, among others.

Since I am doing so well I may not add this to my maintenance protocol but I definitely will have it on hand for cold and flu season.

Perhaps someone can answer the question about cordyceps. What specific mushrooms are in the tincture? Also I'm assuming this is another one where you have to go slow.
Posted 6/15/2016 11:12 PM (GMT 0)
Cordyceps mycelium.
I bought the powder, you get a lot more doses for the same money compared to tincture.
