First 20 minutes are his progression to becoming a lyme MD and his path to learning about
and using to Vit C IV therapy. Couple patient success stories and in 2006 one pt. uploaded a video to youtube, then people started to beat a path to his door and he became a lyme treatment doctor.
Q: Difference between IV or oral Vit C?
A: First some thoughts on my favorite vitamin. (Sailors getting limes and being saved from scurvy story.) Read Dr. Levy's book which said, if you have enough energy you may get sick but you'll bounce back. The opposite is true if you have more electrons going out than in(run out of energy) your body will start to rob peter to pay paul and borrows energy from the muscles or the bones or the other tissues. Some people get lyme or cancer or diabetes. Whatever you become susceptible to from the lack of energy (loss of electrons) in that weakest area.
The reason Vit C works is because it is the most powerful electron donor in nature. When you give Vit C you are literally infusing the pt. with energy. When someone has energy you have a good change at getting them back to where they are balanced and can fight the whatever.
Oral Vit C can cause diarrhea if you take too much at once but you can titrate up taking more and more every day. Linus Pauling the famous Vit C scientist took 30,000 mg. per day orally.
With IV treatments you never have bowel issues so you can go much higher in dosage. Ex. 300 gms (300,000 mg) in 24 hrs. I did this with a pt. and he did fantastic. Everyone can't tolerate it though. Vit C isn't the end all cure all but it's a fabulous tool.
Really like the liposomal Vit C and I've had people take 50gms of liposomal a day without bowel problems.
So the source and type of Vit C is important.
It's really important for turning on your immune system but you have to add other things such as bio-mechanically you are balanced, you have a good diet, you are taking other good supplements. We may do acupuncture.
Another important approach we use is oxidative therapy with either H202 or ozone therapy.
Something really amazing is neural therapy which is a German technique where we reset the nerves. Theory is that the nerves get used to the condition of pain or inflammation, etc. They can be 'reset' or rebooted by injecting a little B vit using a tiny dental needle into the acupuncture meridian energy points. It literally makes the nerves
open and close and reboot.
Q: I haven't heard much from you about
"let's kill the bug"
A: 2 answers:
1. Don't freak out but, the bug doesn't matter in some regards. The answer is, what happened to your body to allow this infection to get out of control? I don't think attacking the bug is the solution. I think fixing the body and putting it back in balance makes it bulletproof.
If we just go after the bug, we don't fix what was wrong with your body in the first place that allowed the disease to start.
2. this is the second part of the answer. I believe there are 6 reasons why people don't get better and I believe it is literally in this order.
a. They are too advanced in the disease/physiology damage. The train has left the station.
b. They've had the wrong doctor and wrong treatment. Anti-against, Bio=life, Tic=therapy. I don't believe that giving some one against life therapy is the answer. Seen tragic ABs pts. Not against short term ABs is fine, but long term is not the answer.
c. The pt. doesn't want to get better. They become their illness. And they don't have to take responsibility for their life. This can be corrected but some people have a mental illness in this area. We added a mind/body healer and the results were really great.
d. They don't have a very good support circle. It's critical that the inner circle of people the pt relies on is educated and congruent with what the pt. is trying to do. If you don't have that it's going to be a huge hurdle for the pt. who has to either compartmentalize that relationship or you have to try to educate the antagonistic person about
what it is you are trying to do. OR, you are just going to be stalemated but the relationship inner circle is critical.
e. Finances is the least of the problems. Usually a person will decide it's worth the cost and find the money.
(that's only 5? tb)
You might help people get to a plateau if you don't take these other things into consideration.
The greatest doctor is your body and you have to get your body back to health so it can do what it was designed to do.
This is what I tell pts. You need to be able to accept yourself for who you are and like yourself. Most powerful treatments are Prayer, journaling, meditation and it's really good to believe in something. Enc. them to write out their thoughts for nervous system decompression.
Have a regular sleep and eating schedule. Bodies like order.
Use the best fuel available. Get rid of plastics and toxins and decrease sugar and junk food. Eat healthy. Have a rainbow of colors on your plate made up of plants.
Drink a lot of water.
Use heat: infrared sauna or a hot bath every day. Get really hot every day. It helps turn on the immune system
Use liposomal Vit C. That's way better than regular oral. It's absorbed better. Not as good as IV but still great.
LDM 100-- (lomatia) a native american herb that is amazing, but some people can get a detox rash so go slowly. Barlow Herbs is a source.
Myosotis which is a lymphatic drainer and echinachia which is an immune stimulator.
Monolaurin revs up the immune system. EFA protects the nerves and pathways.
Minerals are the unsung heroes in lyme disease. We can't make these and need to have them.
