Because of the abx I am on now, (ketek,tindamax, also taking amantadine) I was wondering if there is a page somewhere which might show natural subsitutes for abx. I know when I finish this week, I will go on levaquin for a short time and then pulse back with the others listed earlier.

SPIRO 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 product was featured in an article by the Health Sciences Institute (see page 4).

You might also search Pau d'Arco at the Rain-Tree site. It is a wonderful antifungal.

THE ONE EARTH HERBAL SOURCE BOOK (Tillotson, et.al.)

This is NOT a book about lyme (aside from a mention on sarsaparilla's page). However, it is a wonderful resource. Generously, much of the book is on line but you can also get it from the link or from Amazon.

This explains a lot about how the liver works. The nervous system is also detailed. Special diets are outlined.

======================

To search medical abstracts for some of what appears in the literature above:

www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez

PubMed Search:

Allicin - 288 abstracts

Coptis 264 abstracts

Sarsaparilla - 132 abstracts

Andrographis - 220 abstracts

-

Note: no one item is enough alone. Just as with allopathic, all of the literature above emphasizes the importance of very specific combination therapy.

b,

Are you referring to herbs such as Samento or TOA Cat's Claw or Prima Una del Gato?

It is a powerful herb that has antibiotic "like" qualities. You can google it and get lots of good info. I am currently taking it in place of Zithromax for lyme.
