By nuts I mean cashews, and walnuts. I have a reaction to nuts and coffee with this whole body vibrating/crawling sensation. If feels as if the critters are coming out of hiding to eat.

This crawling sensation subsided and is now back in full force along with a worsening of my few remaining symptoms. I should mention that colloidal silver does this to me also. I'm not sure if the silver is affecting the parasites or mystery bugs or if its a bad reaction.

Any advice is greatly appreciated, Im feeling like that its either parasites, metals or lyme relapsing. I am being tested for the first two at a lab.

Jamers,

The question is, are you still on any antiparasitics. About the nuts and other foods. The parasites will go after anything you ingest, but if iit affects them negatively, they usually retreat.

It was always a guessing game for me as to what they liked to eat or not, so I solved the problem by taking either salt/c and or herbs whenever I ate. (let them go after the food first, and then hit them when they are feeding so they ingest the poison.)

You might want to consider digestive enzymes when you eat also. Super Digestaway by Soloray are excellent plant enzymes that contain ox bile and pancreatin and are also antiparasitic.


BTW, drinking milk or eating cheese especially during a full moon is a great way to keep them in the G.I. track. Then you hit them with the poison.

Killing parasites is kinda like playing cat and mouse. You have to outsmart them. Also taking extra cloves to kill the eggs is a good idea.

Thank you Gael! I am not on antiparasitics, I did not feel much from the herbs so I stopped. However, I react to Diflucan, colloidal silver and Yeastonil which may have a herb in it that parasites don't like. I was taking all of these together and started to feel awful...crawlies, dizzy and very hot and sweaty all the time. I am going on vacation so I took the week off hoping I would feel better but I don't.

when I return from vacation, I plan on starting salt/c, colloidal silver, artemisinin, colloidal silver and maybe humaworm. I hope if this doesn't kill me, it will kill them!

Another consideration, in addition to others that Gael so well addressed:

Nuts are high in glutamic acid (glutamine) and that is a neuro-excitatory amino acid that is often way too high in those with lyme, due somewhat to the magnesium deficiency that often goes with lyme.

I would avoid nuts and other foods high in glutamic acid for a while.

Coffee, well, the caffeine is to be avoided by all those treating lyme, "No Caffeine" is in Dr. B's guidelines. It's just too stimulating. Maybe you could tolerate before but it may have reached its tipping point and your body is telling you to back away.

Green tea may be tolerated, though, as it also contains a calming element that balances out the caffeine (which is about half that of coffee).

If you get a decaf tea or coffe, it can still contain some caffeine (especially for coffee). Be sure, though, that it's a water processed decafination process and not a chemical one that can cause all kinds of issues.

MAGNESIUM is really important to calm down the neuro-exictatory reaction, no matter what the cause

TAURINE, too.

See the GLUTAMINE post here - and other things that might be a trigger for you, too:

Walnuts can KILL parasites.

Cashews could grow yeast.
