- Nothing logical comes up with a search at Google for "eweje"
Do you have a link to the direct manufacturer's site?
and if you are calling your doctor a "duc" - that implies that you don't respect them (and, if that is the case then why go with their suggestion or go to them at all?). Just curious. -

- "Doctor of Oriental Medicine" is an honorable accomplishment. However, I just don't get the kind of vibe from this guy as I've gotten from some of the absolutely excellent DOMs that I've encountered over time. This is too "Hollywood"
My eyes just can't read much of the post, or the blog link. I did go to the doctor's link and - I usually try not to be subjective but I can't resist. His photo is a total turn off. A smiling & happy doctor is fine - in context & proportion with their work.
But a huge photo like that just grabs me the wrong way. Subjective, I confess. And I have no patience to persevere past that. "Oooh, pleeease" is how I feel with I see that super sized ego shot. If the webpage detail and layout are not as enticing as the Hollywood photo pull, I'm out.
I did not see anything on his page that seems of interest but I'm just so tired.
Of course, there are various doctors out there who are not LL who can offer us great information about various important matters. But I'd go through your state naturopathic association - or those similar in the set below. Good doctors will be associated with professional groups.
I would ask a LL ND who knows more about parasites, and many do. If one is not near you, you might call some LL ND offices in states near you for some guidance.
As you seek out detail about parasites, you might also seek out a tropical disease expert doctor. See next post.
And other posters here may have better endurance to adequately offer nonbiased objective assessment of the doctor's site / work.
Basically,
When considering herbal / nutritional / adjunct methods, because lyme is so very complex & unique, as are possible coinfections:
if at all possible - because each person & each case is different - it's best to consult with an ILADS-educated LL ND (lyme literate naturopathic doctor) (or similar) who has completed four years of post-graduate medical education in the field of herbal and nutritional medicine -
- and someone who is current with ILADS' research & presentations, past and present, and has completed the ILADS Physician Training Program (see: www.ilads.org )
so they really know all they can about the science of lyme . . . how lyme (& other TBD) act and what we can do about that in various ways. Proper ASSESSMENT of not just lyme but coinfectoins is vital. Someone trained by ILADS is best to assess.
Many LL NDs incorporate antibiotics (depending upon the licensing laws in their state). Some LLMDs and LL NDs have good working relationships.
When possible, it's great to have both a LLMD and LL ND and even better when they have a long-standing professional relationship.
For those considering complementary support methods / or other avenues entirely:
Herbal Safety considerations & reference books; etc.
Links to many articles and books by holistic-minded LL doctors of various degrees who all have this basic approach in common:
knowing which methods offer assertive & direct impact, which are only support and which are both. And when to use what, how to combine, & when to step back.
You can compare and contrast many approaches with links to articles, books, methods . . .
BODY WORK methods / links (and why anyone who works on your spine MUST be LL to the degree they at least know to never suddenly twist neck or spine. Never. Ever. And that we should never be advised to do neck / head / shoulder stands.)
Etc. -

- FOR EDUCATION ONLY - All Rain-tree links below are no longer active (except the last one for raintree). Although the Rain-tree site is long longer active, however, the collected works have been cataloged for public education.
Because you are asking about parasites, do ask various LLMDs and LL NDs for there has been interest in that topic at ILADS conferences, etc.
Of particular help on the topic of parasites, though:
This author's work might be of interest to your personal study and you might find a doctor who has this kind of expertise:
. . . Since that first trip, Ms. Taylor has returned to the Amazon numerous times, continuing to research and document more medicinal plants from the South American rainforests.
In these endeavors, she has worked hands on with Indigenous Indian shamans and healers, learning directly about their ancient empirical plant knowledge, as well as with Indigenous tribal communities and other rainforest communities.
In addition, Ms. Taylor works directly with phytochemists, botanists, ethnobotanists, researchers, and herbal medicine practitioners to document, research, test and validate rainforest medicinal plants. . . .
In all her pages, there are links within links within links. Anytime you see something highlights, chances are there is a wealth of detail beyond a click.
Scroll down to see individual herbs and formulas. Click for the link to detail about each. About the 3rd paragraph down, see the link for:
