I have been using the A-Bart tincture for over a month and looking to add in some new detox methods to deal with the herx reactions and symptoms

My main symptoms:
Headaches, lightheadedness
Leg pain
Muscle pain and cramping
Ear and eye pains

I have been using detox baths, Pinella and burbur detox tinctures and alka seltzer gold as detox methods lately

Been thinking about trying CBD oil, has that helped anyone?

Any ideas that have worked for others dealing with Bart and Lyme would be greatly appreciated

I'm not sure the CBD oil is a good detox...as it can have some effect on killing the bacteria.

Are you taking something for liver support (ie Milk thistle seed extract)

And probiotics daily for you GI health?


Prior to epsom baths and showering, you could dry brush your skin.

Are you taking a binder?

Light exercise? even if it's just stretching/yoga...and/or a short walk around the neighborhood.

I’ve been taking probiotics and been doing some light excercise. I’ve also been using activated charcoal for my binder. I’m gonna look into milk thistle seed though, haven’t heard about that one to much, thank you!

Our liver is an organ that is a big player for removing toxins out of our body - so taking something to suppport the liver helps.

Note - if you have a ragweed allergy you shouldn’t take Milk thistle

NOW brand modified citrus pectin has really worked well for me. I hardly ever feel really toxic now.

What do you guys think of chlorella? I haven't used it much but it seems helpful.

Rawls gives it a strong recommendation: /rawlsmd.com/health-articles/the-ultimate-detox-superfood

Could be worth looking into?

Chlorella is good too much makes me a little loose ....my fav detox that got me out of a few bad spots is bentonite clay and acv in a hot bath ...whew ....

Blue - They recommend ACV baths at Sierra. I haven't heard of many others talking about it. Will have to try combining with clay

What were the dosages folks are referring to on these detox modalities;
Milk thistle milligrams?
Chlorella milligrams?
Citrus pectin
Acv bentonite clay in the bath?
Alka Seltzer gold?
Pinella/burbur

These are all wonderful suggestions but I always find it difficult to locate effective therapeutic levels I'll take something it doesn't provide any benefit and then I'll stop taking it and then months later I find out that I'm supposed to be taking 10 times what I initially tried. Thank you

For milk thistle I recently heard a presentation by a well-regarded llmd mentioning people tend to take too small a dose. If I recall correctly he was recommending at least 1 gram several times a day.
