[All] Effective Natural Treatments for Lyme Disease -- a rapidlydeveloping epidemic amplified by climate change & earlierecosystem disruption by species extinction

[Lori Strothard]

Hi Robert- thisthanks for this important information to know - I heard that story on CBC as well and thought god help anybody who gets this in Canada- most people's stories of trying to get answers were horrendous, and then having to go the States for treatment is just nuts - so I'm keeping your suggested remedy on file in case anyone I know ever gets it. Is it occurring more in Canada now than it used to? Is it because they haven't had many cases that they don't deem it important enough to have tests and treatment for it?  The Cdn. Medical Assoc. or whoever governs what doctors do better get up to speed on this- there's a lot of suffering going on.  Lori S.

  Hi All,


  Context: Unlike the US, most Canadian physicians and labs are diagnostically LD incompetent, with physicians too often saying (as with Candidiasis), "it is all in your head." The broad complexity of symptoms just confounds them rather than igniting their scientific/diagnostic curiousity. Or perhaps the pretense of confounding is the best career preserving path.




  Indicative of the LD symptom complexity is this check list that one of the relatively few LD specialist MDs uses -- fear of regulatory college persecution/prosecution greatly limits the # of involved MDs even when they recognize LD's existence & prevalence.
  http://lymedisease.org/resources/handouts1.html. And fewer still risk prescribing a natural product instead of the "mandatory" antibiotic.


  Yet when a natural product is the best treatment option, then it may be worth the risk if successful treatment is the goal rather than endless recurrence for many -- such as my wife and myself -- when prescribed antibiotics for LD. 


  As I discovered, there is a very effective natural product for LD that is side-effect free. Such products are increasingly helping to make it possible for physicians to practice this part of their Hippocratic Oath, 
  "I will prescribe regimens for the good of my patients according to my ability and my judgment and never do harm to anyone."


  This natural product successfully treated our Lyme disease 6+ years ago: Lyme Immune System #72 http://www.belllifestyleproducts.com/en-ca/lyme-immune-system-72.htm.  


  And the article research that I am doing currently on body pH (urine & saliva as indicators) suggests the need for a slightly alkaline pH of ideally 7.365 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XvqHSi9oyfw) so as to create an internal ecosystem that discourages pathogens -- a slightly acidic normal vaginal pH is at least one exception http://womenshealth.about.com/od/vaginalhealth/a/vaginalphtestin.htm. 


  The very long product commentary here on this second BELL product has some very useful details -- including alkalizing & acidifying food lists. Bell Acidic Stomach Alkaline Balance #39

  To best ensure a successful treatment, this 3rd BELL product might be useful -- in addition to pH alkalizing -- to take simultaneously, BELL SUPREME IMMUNE BOOSTER #52 500MG - 90 CAPS - MUSHROOM EXTRACTS

  Coincidently CBC Radio's Ontario Today has just had a program on Lyme disease -- http://www.cbc.ca/ontariotoday/2012/07/18/thursday-chronic-lyme-disease/. The guest Jim Wilson is President of the Canadian Lyme Disease Association has well-researched views about physician & lab LD incompetency. (http://www.canlyme.com/bottom.html).

  PS: From a comment to today's CBC Radio program Ontario Today by Prof. Emeritus, Dr. Douglas W.Larson:


  In "Storyteller Guitar (Dundurn, Toronto, 2011)",

  I tell the following story... (about earlier ecosystem disruption by species extinction)

  Lyme disease exploded in the 1970's. It the fastest growing bacterial disease in North America. It has exploded because we caused the extinction of the passenger pigeon and it's host plant (the American Chestnut) over 100 years ago. Originally white tailed deer, deermice and ticks were rare in the eastern seaboard because the American chestnut was so abundant. Deer did not eat the chestnuts but the pigeons did. 

  But once we cut out most the chestnut, killed all the passenger pigeons and allowed maple/oak/beech forests to grow, the white tailed deer and other hosts of the spirochete bacterium all exploded.
  We are now paying the price for an extinction event that we caused a century ago. Why should we conserve species? There might be more Lyme diseases out there.....

    Hi Robert:  M****s niece has a friend who has developed Lyme’s disease and has not found a remedy for it. I remember you found something that helped you and your wife.  Could you let me now what it is so I can pass the information along?  Thanks for your help with this.  .......
