Not selling anything, i just tinctured a bunch of c.c. and can't take it, it overdrives my immune system. So, i have a lot and no use for it. I'd love to give it to someone who could use it, this stuff can be expensive. DM me if you're interested.

I tinctured it with organic c.c. for 8 weeks according to Buhner's protocol

Have you tried taking it slower? Cats Claw made me herx so i had to start with much smaller amounts. But eventually worked up to a full dose with no issue

Bumping -

But also I agree with starting really slow. You can cut doses of one drop by placing it in a small glass of water and then cutting the water in half and diluting it with a lot more water, save the other half for later.

Aerose,

I'm like you with the cats claw, but I'm trying it again. I took 1 drop yesterday morning and 1 drop this morning. I'm going to try to do 1 drop a day for a few days a week and see if I can manage to adjust to it that way.

BTW - I started Isaties/Houttynia/Alchornea about 3 weeks ago. The first 2 weeks it helped but then I had what I assume was a herx, but I'm sticking with it trying not to increase too quickly.

The IHA really helped my cognitive and emotional function.

Glad to hear you're doing well with that stuff. Unfortunately I've been on really high doses of it all for 4 months niw and nothing has budged. Not even the slightest bit. I added in cryptolepis and had a mild herx at first but nothing since then. I'm staying on it, though.

I feel pretty confident that cat's claw isn't for me at this point. I went down to 3 drops and already felt a little off, then just 5 drops and i was hallucinating and had intense flu like feelings and a stiff neck et all. These weren't herxes.

I feel fine parting ways with it now, i even got a big "no" on a muscle test. So, come one come all. Everything must go!

Just curious why you feel flu like feelings and stiff neck are not herxes. Stiff neck is a classic Lyme symptom, and flu like feelings are classic herx symptoms.

You got the symptoms after dropping the dose? Sounds kind of like a relapse in that case. Unless I'm misunderstanding you

Sorry, Aerose91 - We can't advertise herbs to give away on here. (even though you're not actually selling them) (I've been told by co-Moderators of this forum)


So, I do need to lock the thread.
