I just recently tried artemisinin and Its given me a boost of energy and more importantly has dissolved most of my brain fog for now. I first popped a serrapeptase then followed it up with the artemisinin an hour later. Apparently it's fighting or relieving something. Can someone chime in on some ideas of what happened or what likely its targeting? Then I can schedule a Doc Appt. to provide Some input and hopefully get the right med. I was totally plateaued before this. Thanks

Babesia. Artemisinin targets babesia and other protozoa.
Nice work!

Yes, babesia. Most doctors recommend taking a macrolide antibiotic with artemisinin so that resistance does not occur.

Yes, Babesia! That's great. Make sure you pulse it so you don't create resistance (cannot overstate this). There are several ways to do this.... like 3 weeks on, one week off (this is what I've done). Or 4 days on, 3 days off.
Keep feeling good!

Okay that makes sense, I've only treated Lyme and Bartonella so far, but had babesia in mind when I ordered it. Since I was plateaued I was considering fry, parasites or anything else under the sun. Thanks, Hopefully I can target this Babs, and I'll let the Doc know on thursday. Still surprised by the reaction from an herbal extract.
