I could feel something going on inside me while using the herb.
I might try checking it under scope later.

NMN,
The raw herb will be different from the extract that is used in HH capsule and not as strong. It simply is not the same. See if they have a powdered Houttuynia EXTRACT that is from a clean source.
However, there is a difference of opinion between Schaller and Zhang in the amount suggested. Still, it is not a stand-alone treatment but to be used as part of a protocol.
If you want to know more you can PM me or ask here. I have to rest now.
In addition to Schaller's book(s), be sure to also read:
Lyme Disease and Modern Chinese Medicine - by Dr. QingCai Zhang, MD & Yale Zhang
you can access his web site through www.hepapro.com or try www.sinomedresearch.org and use "clinic" and then "clinic" for the passwords or call Hepapro.

I just sent you a PM with link for international orders for Houttuynia Extract but you might find it in your country or Europe, too.
First, please read this article for the formula for an anti-spirochete formula. While some of the information about lyme itself seems to have been incorrectly gathered from the IDSA, the treatment strategy is good.
Houttuynia is not part of this particular formula (below) but, together with information from the Zhang and Buhner books, you can see how a formula is considered.
