I've seen that travelor recommended to not decoct the herbs. Are you sure/? Lol

I used your technique of just add hot water and covering it... but do you still recommend to not simmer the herb parts such as root/bark/etc..

Just curious where this method of not decocting came from and your take on it.

Nope, I was told to NOT simmer the herbs, to only add "just boiled" water, cover and allow to steep for 20 minutes, strain, cool and drink 1 cup 4 times a day. This came from the TCM practitioner that helped me heal the first time around.

I'm glad I listened and followed her instructions, as I healed when no one else gave me one shred of hope of getting any healing when pharma abx failed me.

Ok, thanks for replying!

I needed to confirm this if this is still what you think.

I've been doing it the right way then.

Thanks!

Yay!! Lol. I was following someone that had decades of training and practiced using herbs only to heal people, so I listened and followed closely. =)

Well appreciate your responses and that you are fast to answer questions on the forum.

I hope to heal fully as I continue herbals

I hope you heal soon!!! It took me two months on the C.T. before I believed I would even survive. By the third month, I was chomping at the bit to take care of Bart. My Bart symptoms had increased as the Lyme symptoms decreased at that point, so that was an extra push to start the Houttuynia. Lol.

Best of luck! And thank you for your kind words!!!
