starting new supplements

I got some of my new supplements today, and I need to figure out which ones I'm going to start tomorrow. One complicating factor: I just spent 2.5 hours trimming hooves on my pony. It wasn't easy, but it was important to do and do properly. I usually herx pretty bad and just generally feel awful the next day. I know I'm really kinda out of it now, and very sore. Too tired for a detox bath tonight, but I'll do that tomorrow.

I had a really hard time getting through the trimming, since my babesia issue really made itself know. A lot of air hunger, dizziness, and I kinda 'greyed out' about half dozen times. Not normal for me when trimming.

Here's what I have to start with.

-Liver Cleanse (dandelion, burdock, berberine, milk thistle, nettle and uva ursi) 2 capsules 3x a day
-Artemesia (500mg capsules) 2 capsules 2x a day (3 days on, 4 days off)

I pretty much get most of those herbs already...between my daily tinctures and the detox teas I use. The artemesia is a bit more of an unknown. Do I start it now...knowing babesia is giving me a really hard time? Or do I get on the Liver Cleanse for a while and then start the artemesia?

Really have no idea how I'm going to go about this.

And its supposed to be 52 tonight so I have to go blanket the darn horses! I love them a lot...but days like today make it kinda hard. (picture a me falling over emoticon here)

I would do the detox first, but slowly, cause that's a powerful combination you're about to try. Detoxing too fast can make you feel pretty bad. I make that mistake sometimes with coffee enemas: I have serious detoxing issues, and the CEs are one of the rare things that help. So I get too 'courageous' sometimes... .

Then slowly add the Artemisia. I wouldn't go full dose right away since Babesia is giving you a really hard time.

Good luck!

Yes, start slow with the artemesia--I did herx bad from this one. And I just realized (I was told before it might happen-duh!) that this past week I've been herxing from tumeric/cucurmin. The more I was feeling the inflammatory response, the more I would reach for the cucurmin, thinking that would address it, not realizing it was causing a herx. Geezch...such a crazy game of what does what.
Sayy~I don't know how you do it with all your animals! They must be wonderful to have around, but sometimes just existing feeling blechhy is difficult enough! I give you a whole lotta credit for all that you do (especially during the winter, tho I'm sure summer has its own challenges!)!!
