Research Nutritional NT Factor Energy

Dr. MR recommends this (along with Liposomal Glutithione and COQ10) for mylein sheath/nerve repair as well as mitochondria repair.

So figured I'd give it a whirl to see if it could help my nerve issues. Well a few days into doing the NT Factor I went to bed and literally couldn't sleep a minute the entire night it feels like I drank a pot of coffee right before bed. My normal nerve issues were much worse and I was getting little zaps throughout the night. What the heck?

Anyone has try NT Factor and have a negative reaction?

I just looked this up to see what’s in it. There’s a lot of stuff. I also found some product reviews on treatlyme. One of the reviewers said, “This product caused great anxiety with difficulty in sleep and focus. Had to stop taking it.” So, you’re not the only one.

I’m sure the answer is somewhere in the ingredients, but I don’t know enough to figure it out. Here’s the label showing what’s in it in case someone else can troubleshoot for you.

given all the ingredients who knows what the heck its causing but the fact it has 'ENERGY' in the title tells you all you need to know ;o)

Hey Daisy. I took an abx break from mid-Dec to mid-May when my nervous system issues started to resurface in a more debilitating way. I've been taking gabapentin and trileptal 3x a day to calm them down but it doesn't stop the symptoms entirely.

Seems no matter what I do/don't do my nervous system is out of whack. It's with me 24x7 and flares randomly throughout the day. I've pretty much tried everything and nothing will heal these issues. Not sure what else to do yet I can't live with this on a day to day basis. It'll be 5 years in October dealing with this garbage.

Wife is having similar issues she's exhausting all day long and has to take 2 naps a day. No matter what she tries nothing helps the fatigue. She's given up on antibiotics working with Dr. J for 2 years as they only make her feel worse and do nothing for this symptom which is the major one.

She's working with a modern Chinese herbal medicine/accupuncture place and so far the only thing that's done is lighten my wallet in a big way.

It's going to take an act from God to figure out and heal my wife or myself from this garbage. The sad thing is no one can tell us precisely what is going on to cause these issues. Is it still an active infection, auto-immune issue, permanent changes to how our bodies work which make this the 'new' normal.

Modern medicine has failed both of us pretty miserably and so has the Lyme medical community as no one has any answers as to what is happening.

Rikky,

I’m sorry to hear that. I’m sure I have asked before but can’t remember, have you thoroughly looked into possible mold exposure? The fact that both you and your wife have not responded to treatment as hoped would make me even more suspicious.

Also have either of you taken cholestyramine? I posted this to you a while back but don’t know if you saw it. I watched the video of the Canadian couple and the woman had severe symptoms and was treated. She had some improvements for a few weeks and then went back to being worse. The doctor finally tried cholestyramine, and that was a life changer for her. She’s recovered now.

There is a reason, Rikky. Don’t give up trying to find it.

Sometimes I think we get jaded or make assumptions about possible factors or treatment options because we hear so much and know our bodies. I know I do. Still, there is always, What If xyz was the key for me? (Reminds me of the story in the Bible about Naman (2 Kings chapter 5). Naaman was disappointed with what the prophet told him to do to be healed and wasn’t going to do it until his servant persuaded him. Once he obeyed, he was completely healed of his leprosy.)

WalkingByFaith I tried to deal with mold and took Ali (a weight loss supplement that prevents fat from being metabolized which binds to mold toxins then you excrete it out) and Welchol which is an alternative to Cholestyramine. Didn't do anything. I know I hear folks say mold toxins may be their silver bullet but the symptoms that typically derive from them was never me and a prior LLMD ran out of ideas so tried this. Guess I can't knock him for trying.

Project I was given NT Factor to improve mitochondria function thinking that my nerves needed to be repaired not for the energy that most people take it for. I started 2 pills 2x/day and was supposed to do 2 pills 3x/day for 2 months to see how I did. Well forget that!

I am taking a nerve repair route though and will be using Lion's Mane and Skullcap which both are purported to do just that. I also have Liposomal Glutithione which can't hurt.

I was also recommended by a Buhner Master Herbalist (who's no longer taking patients but gave me a few good tips) to try the following for nerve repair:

- homeopathic kali phos 30 c 4 pellets 3 times to nourish nerves and reduce inflammation
- fresh milky oats; 1/4 tsp 3 x daily for nerve nourshing
- Gotu kola powder

I knew about the milky oats but never heard of the other two.

I'm also looking at taking supplements to naturally increase gaba (which does help my nerves a bit) so will start up Taurine soon.

I also want to start Curcumin extract to help with overall inflammation which is never a bad thing. Thing with Curcumin is it can literally take 6-8 weeks to notice any benefit so you must commit to seeing it through.

Thing with me is I'm so impatient even after all these years to find something to heal me so I start too many things at once and most of the time end up hurting myself. this time i'm going to be titrating up slowly with one thing at a time.
