Your welcome - Have you had a chance to read the thread at the top of the page titled: "New to Lyme?...Start here" ? It is full of good information - including the section on detox.
Detox is crucial when you are treating lyme - as the die-off of the bacteria creates endotoxins and you have a ramping up of symptoms (called a herx). The detox methods help to minimize your symptoms of herxing.
Some cheap/easy detox methods:
Drinking lots of water daily with lemon juice squeezed into it.
Soaking in a warm tub with epsom salts (you can also add hydrogen peroxide)
keeping your bowels moving, but taking psyllium husks.
eating a healthy diet
taking milk thistle (for liver cleanse) - this one's a little more expensive
