i take calcium, c, fish oil, coq, multi, resveratrol, magnesium, glucosamine, cat's claw, andrographis, b complex and xango (and probiotics).

i seem to do well on this protocol.

but is there one vitamin that has helped you the most, or as much as it can?

My gut feel is Olive Leaf Extract.

Vit D3 for me.

I don't think you can single out any one nutrient, just like you can't single out any one abx. I tried to pay attention to symptoms, diet, and treatment and optimize my chances. My doc did have many suggestions, most of which I at least tried Some seemed to help quite a bit, but all may have been involved in my ultimately beating the lyme, at least for now.
-Grapefruit seed extract with olive leaf extract, between meals 2/day. (my first line of attack even pre-llmd).

-garlic, as much as I could choke down, and caps of several types, too. i am sure it had a very good effect against lyme.
Part of the Chinese herbal arsenal against Babesia.

-Artimesia anua, the other part of chinese herbal treatment for babesia. Alternated the whole dried herb (caps) with its extract, artimisinin (from 'Vitanet")

"nutrijoint", or "nutrajoint"--glucosamine or condroitiun sulfate suppliment.

Psyllium husk powder. and Yarrow--regulatec abx saturated bowels.
-
gingko- natural blood thinner that helps get other supplements and drugs where they have to go (into brain, for example...)
-

Well, there's a few, but now I must sleep. Have as good a night as possible!

Tumeric filled in empty capsules = less herxing

Vitamin E seems to be helping get over a hump I was on. It is too early to tell, been taking it a month now, but it is helping.

Vitamin...

I'm waiting for someone to say P5P - the active form of B6.

Sublingual (Source Naturals makes it...cheap), but if this is in a gelatin capsule it might work too:

P5P works WITH Mg and pyrophosphate (PPi)

Marnie, that's the form of B6 I take. [Smile]

Posted by Marnie (Member # 773) on :

Which one? Sublingual or the timed release? Timed release contains MORE.

If you take the sublingual form...only once a day or more often?

I think my son needs more than the 25mg sublingual.

I think he can't process B6 to P5P...the signs are all there.
