This does look good. Is it in liquid form or powder? What doctors are carrying this, and how to you order?

I would wonder if you are getting the right balance in something that has everything.

would love to have all my supps in one place. Maybe someone can ask their llmd at next appt about this. Woudl be great if someone like dr. b endorsed for us lymies....
The owner of the company told me she has not had feedback yet from lymies on the use of healose but many amazing stories from MS patients...
I will let you know how it goes. My immune system is pretty shot right now.

This does indeed look like a real "all-in-one" formula that would eliminate all those bottles! My entire top shelf of my refrig is filled with trays of supplements.
I was also impressed, when reading the ingredients, that they usually used the better and more expensive form of various supplements, instead of the cheaper, less absorbable ones.
However, I read the spreadsheet of the ingredients, which is a whopping ten pages. There were several things there that I am so allergic to that I would go into anaphylactic shock if I took this stuff. I was not pleased to see them use the word "hypoallergenic" after reading that label!
There are other things in it that can cause GI problems, things that stimulate immunity and should not be taken every day, an herb that should only be taken in early but not in late-stage Lyme, several things that can cause high blood pressure, and so on....
I also read a disclaimer in small print saying that the contents cannot be assayed by any known labs, only by their own special process! That makes me leery....maybe it's just water and is a scam (I am pretty cynical after 21 yrs. of this crap, so please excuse me). For the poster who asked, it is in liquid form.
So, this is one case where it pays to educate yourself and know a lot about herbs and nutrition before trying this. It may be a very good choice for those of you who have no issues with substance sensitivity and are sure that you have no immune hyperactivity (TH1 or TH2 dominance).
It does contain a couple of herbs that should kill Lyme and Babs, though not in high amts., so it could potentially cause herxing.
I hope anyone who tries it will post and let us know how it goes.

This does indeed look very interesting. very curious if anyone has tried it!

We've used a liquid multi-vitamin/mineral supp for many years called Liquid Life. Do a Google search for TRC Nutritional Laboratories or their # 1-888-950-4594.
It has everything you can imagine in one bottle. A bottle lasts about a month and we order a case of 5 bottles at a time. A case costs about $80.

Well figured I should be the guinea pig since I found the stuff.
So, day 1 took 1/2 dose ........ Wow no pain and some energy.
Day 2 Full dose .......... felt like crapola x 10.
Can't attribute the good or bad to the supplement since I have wide swings anyway.
I will try to keep this updated?
Anyone else gonna try it?

I haven't tried combo multivitamins & minerals. But my acupuncturist (who is well versed in supplements) told me that minerals are calming and should be taken in the evening, and that vitamins are energizing and should be taken during the day.
I try to follow this advice, but I don't know if it really makes a difference.
But if you were having problems sleeping at night, it might be a good idea to try taking minerals about an hour before bedtime and saving the vitamins for during the day.
