Collagen Support

I have lost so much collagen in my skin. I am taking vitamin C and using Great Lakes Collagen powder but I need much more help.

What else can I take to help with this loss while treating?

Buhner lists several more things in his 'Healing Lyme' 2nd edition - do you have that book? Pages 214-215 and then more on page 217.

Great lakes collagen - 1 tbs daily

Vitamin C - 1,000 - 3,000 mgs daily

Selenium - 200 mcg daily.

He states that the bone broth soup, Echinacea angustifolia tincture and the herbal infusion are probably the strongest.

For the extended protocol (pg 217) there is a long list of things, but the doses of what he mentioned above:
Bone broth soup - beef is best, pork, elk, bison will work well also.

Echinacea Angustifolia (not E. purpurea), tincture, 1 tsp 3 -6 times a day.

Strong infusion of nettle, horsetail, oatstraw, parsley. Add 1 tablespoon of each to a quart of hot water, simmer for four (4)hours, drink one quart daily.

I"m glad I could be of help!! I do encourage you to get the book out and read too, as he gives many more suggestions on what to do to rebuild collagen!
