I've done a lot of crazy stuff pushing through to defeat symptoms but nothing was more

intense then simply put freaking truvia in tea! drank in the morning and posted here about how I almost

vomited(on the brink of vomiting) from taking this.

My questions is - are you getting simimlar results? And guess what...this was the TRUVIA PRODUCT - the processed form.

if the processed form is this strong than man oh man - on top of all this - i visisted the official medical literature site and there's factual evidence for stevia stronger than well known antibiotics.

Let me know your experience because i'd like to know.... this is huge.

some say it works others say it does nothing for them

I always wondered about mixing stevia with DMSO

the DMSO would drive the stevia deep deep into the tissues where it normally would not go.

if you do it, mix the stevia with maybe a teaspoon of pharma grade DMSO, and drink on empty stomach. Follow with water. DMSO tastes truly awful just as a warning.

I think it would be worth trying.

the processed truvia is enough of a reaction for me! smile

i think its because its a soluble form so easy absorption - i put it in tea and walaaa - antilyme relaction - the biggest herx of them all!

If you google Stevia and Lyme there seems to be mixed opinions on Stevia treating Lyme in a live organism. Who would have guessed there would be controversy over a Lyme related issue? LOL

Studies have shown Stevia can kill spirochetes, and cyst forms better than some antibiotics in vitro. On the other hand here is an excerpt from Dr. Rawl's about Stevia's effect on Lyme:

" This does not mean that it kills Borrelia in living organisms. To treat Lyme disease, the chemical compounds present in stevia must be absorbed through the intestines — but the reason it works so well as a sweetener is because these substances are not absorbed through the intestines. This fact has been well documented by numerous scientific studies.

Therefore stevia extract wouldn’t be expected to provide any significant systemic antimicrobial activity against Borrelia or any other microbes associated with Lyme disease."

Truvia is like 99.9% erythritol and .001% stevia. I personally use lots of it because I think it tastes good. I don't think it makes a difference for my symptoms.

This is crazy because my new protocol includes 2 tsp of xylitol for 8 days straight.... and the dr said i must stay away from any products containing xylitol and stevia on my off days... im on day 2 of this so far

Interesting...I never knew we were supposed to stay away from xylitol/stevia on off days.

I don't take those two anyway (except when I'm on the protocol)

I drink BAI coconut drink daily and it contains stevia extract and I used to get huge herxes from them as well. Been drinking them for months now and the herxes have disappeared. Can't really tell if the stevia has helped in the long run though.

Today I'll try stevia sweetener as opposed to truvia

What is - Truvia?

Stevia upsets many people stomachs. This is a goggle -able fact among the non lyme public. So dont get this confused with "herxing" if you take it.

Truvia is mostly Erythritol (no calorie sugar alcohol) plus a small amount of stevia powder mixed in. It almost tastes like regular table sugar. Very little aftertaste. It is my favorite "artificial" sweetener. I am highly skeptical that there is any medicinal value to this product.
