A neighbor just gave me an article on a doctor in Texas, DR T,

who has a product called Spiro from the Rain Forrest

The article is in a the Sept issue of Health Science Institute www.HSIBaltimore.com

Just curious if anyone else has heard about this.

Sorry. I searched the web site and it looks like they do not have the September articles yet.

They all are from August or earlier.

It is a good article about lyme.

I did see the doctor on the web site that is listed in the article.

She is a naturalpath.

I also had trouble with the rain tree web site as far as getting more information on Spiro although the article explains what is in it and what each thing does.

The data from the trials is not all in at this time.

There were 100 people that were in the test trials.

It says that they had all confirmed lyme test using one of the 4 available tests and that the tests were very expensive.

Wonder what those tests were.

In the article the lady said it took her 2 months before she could get in to see the doctor who dx her with lyme.

All had been dx with lyme within a 5 year period.

it was a 3 month study.

She turned to the plants that are used to kill Syphllis.

it is taken twice a day on an empty stomach

She uses 6 different plants. One is called false garlic.

Another is for the liver and kidney support

The people in the study had chronic lyme and had used other treatments which did not make the symptoms go away.

Trying to figure out the cost of this but haven't been able to yet due to lyme brain.

Those in the trial say it changed their lives.

Sorry, fading fast.

I think the web site url is at the top

I sent an email to the rain tree company to talk with her.

I could not find an address for her, but did read she is with rain tree as she created the product.

Received this email today:

Thank you for contacting Raintree Nutrition.

I am sorry to hear about your plight with Lyme Disease.

If I had Lyme Disease, I would follow Dr. Taylor's protocol and take Spiro Extract (60 drops or 1/2 tsp., 2-3 times daily).

The rainforest plants in this formula have been independently researched and traditionally used for the antimicrobial and antibacterial properties against spirochete bacteria.

This being an herbal supplement, a prescription is not necessary,

however, I would seek the advice of my practitioner.

One 4 oz. bottle should last about 1 month and costs $29.95.

When ordering 3 bottles, the price is $28.95 each and when ordering 6 bottles, the price is $26.95 each.

If you have further questions or need more assistance, please feel free to contact me directly at [email protected] or by phone (8 a.m. to 5 p.m. PST) at 1-800-780-5902 or 775-841-4142 (outside the US).

Still can't find anything Lyme treatment. Don't see where it says the dr is in TX either. I doubt she has a medical practice for Lyme patients.

The article is not on the web yet.

They just have August and earlier on the web.

This was in the Sept issue.

The doc is a Natural Path in TX who did a study on 100 people with the herbs she got from the rain forest.

I know. It is iffy.

It would be good to talk to some of the people in the study.

I also could not find an address on the natural path.

But, that doesn't mean it is not there.

Rain-tree is an excellent group. Sill, I'll look forward to reading more about it.

there is also a product called SpiroKete by Hannah Kroeger. Different, but has been good for some people.

------

this is some from Rain-Tree's pages:


at the product search page, you have to type in:

SPIRO Extract

--

A proprietary multi-herb tincture extract.

A synergistic formula of 6 rainforest botanicals which are traditionally used in South America for syphilis (a type of spirochete bacteria) and other bacterial conditions.*


This dynamic formula contains a proprietary blend of

* chanca piedra whole herb (Phyllanthus niruri),

* Bellaco caspi bark (Himatanthus sucuuba),

* tamamuri bark (Brosimum acutifolium),

* matico leaf (Piper aduncum),

* huacapu bark (Minquartia guianensis), and

* ajos sacha bark & leaf (Mansoa alliacea)

extracted in distilled water and 40% ethanol.


For more information on the unique rainforest ingredients in the formula, look them up in theTropical Plant Database - www.rain-tree.com/plist.htm


The rainforest ingredients in this formula have been sustainably wild harvested in the Amazon Rainforest and are processed without chemicals or irraditation.

The retail price for this 4 ounce bottle is $29.95.


-

I've been studying the first ingredient in this for a while. It has been used for malaria and babesia, too (a citation is listed in the citations at the site for Chanca Piedra, also called Stone Breaker).

www.rain-tree.com/chanca.htm

way down - under the citations for: Antiparasitic, Antimalarial, Wound-Healing, & Other Antimicrobial Actions:

Subeki, S., et al. "Anti-babesial and anti-plasmodial compounds from Phyllanthus niruri." J. Nat. Prod. 2005; 68(4): 537-9.


I've not yet had the energy to hunt for the original article.

I was just trying to find whatever info YOU found on her. Couldn't find anything about what you've posted.

I didn't mean to sound like a naysayer! [Smile]
