Everything pictured in the lymephotos site is EXACTLY what poured out of me into the toilet and they were MACROSCOPIC!!
I have been in touch with other people that have had the same experience. Willy Burgdorfer found Adult Filarial Worms in the ticks he dissected.
This is a co-infection that has been sorely ignored. So, no this is not a hoax.

The question is, can you find someone other than Gael around here so passionate about it's legitimacy? If not I would be cautious (I am).

You have every right to your opinion, but I have no reason to make this up. Are you inferring that I am? I have more productive things to do.
I am only passionate about it because I have experienced this first hand, and a lot of people on here are not getting well.
I am almost in remission because I was fortunate enough to find the lymephotos site here on lymenet back in 2006.
The people on lymestrategies are the people doing the salt/c protocol and that is where you will find the most people doing this protocol.
It is not neccesarily about the protocol, but just to make people aware of the co-infections of parasites that may be lurking in their bodies.

Well Toppers and dyna, all I know is that I saw lots of "things" moving around in my younger kid's stool in the toilet visible to the naked eye...thought I was losing my mind til other family members confirmed what I was seeing.
I've since looked at many, many photos on the net and have come to the conclusion that the main 2 things we saw with the naked eye bear a striking resemblance to particular parasites as well as possibly the b. burgdorferi "organism" or "cell" or something similar in appearance.
I am no scientist, and I am a skeptic. But I know what I saw, and based on that, there is no doubt in my mind that my kid has parasites or some other organisms coming out of her.
I am not prepared to begin the salt/C protocol on her b/c of her age. However, at the very least, further investigation and a parasite cleanse at the very least is warranted.
Before you go spouting your mouths off questioning whether things are "hoaxes" and questioning long-time members on this board, you ought to sit back, think, and do some research yourselves.
I don't know Gael, and in fact have never corresponded with her, but from what I know, she is sincere and has nothing to gain by sharing her experiences.
I hope you come to realize that.

Its NO hoax and like Gael says parasites along with protozoan infections are not given enough attention or seriousness and it is her and the whole concept she brought light to along with others that turned on the lightbulb for me..
It is not only Salt C that people use to try to treat various infections like this and the point is that you got to open your eyes to it.... I did not mean that literally either because sometimes you can see them and sometimes not.. I only saw a few but I felt a ton and those I did not feel I knew were there because when I treated for them I felt so much better..
Do not ignore this... whatever you do..
PS> Remember babesia and malaria are protozoan infections.. parasites in your blood and they have lives that go around and around in our bodies from eggs to adults and around again... and can travel throughout and into our brains and down through our digestion and in through out our organs etc.....

Alana & Spring,
Thank you very much for your support. As I have mentioned before my only intention in repeated posting of the lymephotos site is to make people aware of these parasites. When I first saw them in the toilet it was shocking.
Alana, just wanted to add that Humaworm and Clarkia

Thanks Gael and elley. I will look into the things you mention and bring it up at the next doc visit. In the meantime, we're doing the stool samples. First one, through Quest, came back negative (shocking, I know)....and that contained the stuff we saw moving!
After the stool testing is done, we were told to give "paracleanse" at half the adult dose. We'll see if it helps. If the stool samples come back +, that will definitely change the treatment.
Gael, do you know if parasites/worms can cause constant severe abdominal pain?

i am 22 months into salt c and it has saved my life. literally. i know 100s of people doing the protocol via the website lymestrategies. i turned to salt c after i relapsed hard after stopping abx. i was on abx for 1.5 years and realpased back to square one when i stopped. on salt c, i have had permanent improvements and anticipate within the next 2 years i will be 100 percent. right now, i am about 80 percent and so grateful. look at yahoo's site lymestrategies and read the success stories. it is a shame people here won't listen to gail b/c it is true...all of these things are coming out of me too...flukes, borrleia and i can see it!! so gross...i would not of believed it if i hadn't seen it myself.

Alana,
I had many stool samples throughout the years I was sick with Lyme, and they all came back negative for parasites.
Also, I Was rushed to the hospital several times with projectile vominting, SEVERE abdominal pain and diarrhea.
Was given IV morphine, but they never figured out the cause which of course I now know it was from these parasites. Check out the symptom list at humaworm.
Please be aware that these parasites/worms have layed lots of larva and eggs. The combo of wormwood, blackwalnut hull and cloves is necessary to get rid of the parasites.
Cloves is what gets rid of the eggs as well as the salt.
hezzer,
I am currently doing Clarkia which contains all three ingredients and it's a 2 month protocol with breaks in between. you might want to check that out. I also am doing salt/c which I feel is my primary treatment.
Gael

dyna,
Dr. K. treats all of his patients for parasites/worms before anything else. GiGi says it's his priority.
The parasites protect the bacteria, so getting rid of them is important. There are other LLMDs that are aware of this and that follow Dr.K.s advice.
Some months ago I sent out an e-mail to LLMDs that were on the ILADS list and I received a few responses concerning this co-infection of Filarial worms.
If you type filarial worms in the search bar here, I believe it will come up. Keep up with your persistence in getting rid of this horrific disease, it will pay off.
You can order the gelcaps on line if you don't want to make that long trip.
Take Care,
Gael

Anyone who has not successfully rid themselves of lyme and company should be aware of these results. I am going to purchase a microscope capable of showing and photograping these things myself to document a reduction in their presence. Thanks again Gael, thomas

"A tree falls in the forest..... is there a sound ?"
Guess what? I finally know the answer to that. After all these years, I found out!!!
YES, YES, YES, there is a sound!!
I was recently outside of the forest (a good ways away) and saw and heard a tree fall.
There is a sound, Virginia! There is a sound!
Bless us one and all.

With all due respect I'm really bummed out by your reply. And, I respect you a great deal, knowing you have devoting a great deal of your time to LD, having visited your site many times and combed through your links for information. Thank you for all you do.
I can understand and appreciate your response, and I understand the legitimate need for science/research to support and study the "facts" as many here have put forth.
Unfortunately, the facts that are our reality are not deemed worthwhile subjects for science.
We have all been hit in the head with the 2x4 of the reality of Lyme Disease and coinfections. We know there is science and studies that support our reality.
But when politics and money enter the picture as primary players, science and reality go out the window.
Our "real" reality has been pushed aside and deemed "post-lyme syndrome" "multiple unexplained symptoms" "depression" or some other ridiculous diagnosis.
So, while I appreciate and understand where you're coming from, for the time being, we have to accept that the proof might lie in the pudding.
In my case, it lies in the toilet bowl. There is something so wrong when the naked eye is able to see "things" of various shapes and sizes swimming and darting around in the bowl.
I am sickened to think that these "things" whatever they are, are still living in my child's body and could, in fact, be the reason why she is in such pain. Whatever photo credits are cited and whatever research is done is a moot point for me.
We know what we saw and aren't going to wait around for some scientist to validate what we already know: she needs to be further evaluated and treated.

The part you guys are all missing is that it's NORMAL to have parasites in the gut. The only thing that's weird is that we rarely 'de-worm' humans the way we do pets, so most Americans are mistakenly assuming that parasites are abnormal and can't possibly be inside them. If you do take antiparasitical drugs, or when you do, you start seeing visible parasites in the stool. That doesn't mean that they're the source of your illness. I think if you de-worm a perfectly healthy person you'll find a tapeworm or a bunch of other stuff. There are safer anti-parasitics than high doses of salt- that's the main objection to this therapy- it can kill people.
We evolved with parasites, they're normal to have in our bodies. People with Lyme sometimes have such out-of-balance immune systems that parasites are an actual problem- but just because salt/C causes you to expel parasites doesn't mean that the parasites are there because of your Lyme tick bite or whatever.
In fact, people who have little exposure to parasites as children tend to be the ones who develop asthma and allergies due to not having the immune stimulation that happens with normal loads of intestinal parasites- this was one of the recent discoveries in parasitology that made headlines about 3 years ago. Google it...
Again- parasite treatment is helpful to many people with Lyme. But salt/C can kill you. And the people who pushed the information the most seem to have spent a lot of energy suppressing negative reports about it- this came up on Lymenet quite a bit a couple of years ago. There's a reason why doctors don't generally agree with this therapy- it's pretty obvious that you can run a risk of damaging your body pretty seriously. Just because salt is 'natural' doesnt' mean that high doses of it are safe. The website tries to get around that by claiming that people used to eat larger doses of salt than common today- there's no historical evidence of that, and there is a LOT of history associated with salt consumption, since nations fought wars over it (to make food preservation for feeding armies possible, among other things).
-------------------- Symptom Free!!! Thank you all!!!!
But Maria, why do we consider it normal to de-worm our pets but think it's acceptable for humans to have worms and parasites roaming around our own bodies?
Why should we be OK with seeing stuff moving around in the toilet after a BM?? We'd be horrified if we saw things moving around in our dog's poop. Why shouldn't we be horrified by seeing things moving around in our own poop?
Sorry, I just don't get that...especially when abdominal sx do not resolve despite numerous tx and things are swimming around in the bowl. Kind of makes sense to me that the next logical thing would be to do a parasite cleanse at the very least.
I know about the salt/C controversy, and my personal jury has declared a mistrial on this protocol.
That said, I do not think it's normal to see stuff swimming around the bowl after a kid has a BM, especially if the kid has been through LD treatment and still has excruciating abdominal pain. B/C this could be the culprit of the pain, it needs to be analyzed and treated.
I also personally do not think it's normal for people to go on low-salt diets to control blood pressure, but that's a story for another day.

i deworm my dog because he loves to eat gross things (like deer poopoo). but i don't eat that stuff so why should i worry. then my cat sits on the table to look out the window and later i eat at the table. and it doesn't dawn on me to deworm myself? what's wrong with me? it might be natural to have things inside me, but if i think it thru and realize they might be there, i'm gettin' 'em out!

Maria,
I had severe asthma for over 40 yrs. The only thing that got rid of it was getting rid of the parasites.
The theory that children who have asthma because they don't have parasites sounds a little dyslexic to me. Most of the labs fail to pick up parasites in stools.
It would make more sense that the kids with asthma aren't properly dx with probable parasites. Roundworms in the lungs have been thought to be the cause.
There has been studys by the CFS (chronic fatigue group) that have found this through sputum. I agree with Alana that low salt diets are not a good thing.
We need salt to support the adrenals as well as other bodily functions. It's TABLE SALT and PROCESSED SALT that are the poisons.
Are you aware and have you read the information on the lymephotos site about Willy Burgdorfer finding Adult Filarial Worms in the ticks he dissected?
This can be a co-infection of Lyme disease.\
Wars were fought over salt because it was a very valuable commoditiy and a known bacteriocide.

for those that chose not to believe we are filled with worms then that is their choice. i would probably too if i hadn't of seen it with my own eyes. i urge you nay-sayers to try salt c and you will be converted. it has saved my life and i will never go off it. i am so grateful to the people of lymephotos.

Anyone who has been within shouting distance of a deer or any other animals that roam a pasture should absolutely and carefully review lyme photos.com This is a life saving opportunity. Day 3 of salt/c protocol : tinnitis is getting softer and slower, planetary sore is getting flatter and losing its color, particles in toilet water are reduced to about 2 to 3 per square inch. Fatigue symptom is 85% improved. AM foot pain is still gone. "Rheumatoid Bump" on right index finger is reducing in size and the arthritis in the right hand in about 90% gone. Does salt/C have anything to do with this ? You be the judge. dyna

Listen folks, before you go raging and making assumptions again, all I said was I wish they would site their sources, so they could be used as evidence to support these infections. I never said it wasn't real stuff that's on there. It would just be nice to see the studies cited. Relax.

WC,
I am confused about what you mean in reference to citing their sources. I have read the lymephotos site many times and they have stated that the specimens have been saved in case there was any questions.
Is that what you mean by evidence?
It also states that the owner of the website (which can be looked up because it's registered)had lyme for 13 yrs, and goes into detail about what their experience was on salt/c.
I guess becaue it's not registered with the FDA that it makes it invalid??? We all know how many drugs that are dangerous that have had their stamp of approval.
They are in remission and back at work full time. I think what they discovered using salt/c is brilliant.
Not trying to create an argument,just stating another point of view.

I found out through an internet search, that the owner of the website is a woman by the name of Nancy Stone.
I also know someone here on lymenet that has spoken with her on the phone.
I am not a member of lymestrategies, but Marc Fett the owner states in his lymestrategies e-book that he has conversed with her many times.
Anyway, don't know why she wanted to remain anonymous. Maybe she was afraid of being attacked. Certainly a possibility given all the controversy surrounding it.

I would say that anyone reading this should read carefully and soak in the "experiences" of others and when gathering information from anyone at all that is about a protocol or treatment option avoid the ones that are "black and white" or those who flat out give an opinionated recommedation as opposed to sharing their experiences for your benefit.

I have tried Salt C and did it only for 6 months and had a good experience.
I did stop it because I had another opportunity to do another protocol and the two did not go together at the time.
I though also have done Salt C on and off since and used it as a cleansing of sorts and that has worked for me.
It also has helped with sleep and adreanal issues as well as digestion.
During that six months I noticed improvements in fatigue and pain too and I can not say how things would have gone if I kept at it for a longer time frame.
I have all the supplies and will again at the right time use this protocol again.
For me it was not the one all and I need to use other things as well to treat but at the same time as I treat I notice definate cycles and fluctuations when my body responds better to one thing and at another time another and back again. It is interesting but.. what I say is try it and listen to your body.
Also remember if one thing did not work at one time does not mean it might not work well another time.
I noticed this even for abx and other treatment options.
Just some ideas to keep in mind.
Also whenever I have heard the warnings against this protocol is usually is about the salt and the things that get sited to me are about table salt. So when you then get educated about the huge difference between table salt and natural sea salt then that reason no longer becomes a reason to worry about. That is what I experienced upon reading up on this issue.
I would advise people also to do searches under Salt C on this forum and read past threads that go through the discussions and also track peoples experiences..
For me . Salt C is a thumbs up and a valuable treatment and treatment option for me that will always be something I have on hand to use throughout time.
I see Salt C as a great preventative as well and as something to use as you feel better even to keep things from returning too.. Many good uses..

Open to Debate is a column on LymeBlog News designed to get you thinking by Rita L. Stanley, Ph.D.
AB wrote:...would appreciate it if you could go into this salt cure...tired of hearing I must try something or I can't comment on it... Thanks.
The short answer is taking large amounts of salt and Vitamin C will not cure Lyme disease. Doing so can even be harmful. And yes, there are sites, testimonials and books that promote and enable this so-called `cure' or protocol.
No, you don't have to try something to discuss or heartily debate it or to try to get legitimate answers. The common ploy of ``don't knock it if you haven't tried it'' is a tiresome hustle to discourage critique and common sense.
The ball is ALWAYS in the court of anyone who is trying to make you do something, sell you something. Someone may have the effrontery, but never any authority, to silence you especially about your health care. Sites that discourage intelligent discussion, delete posts, use ploys to control and convince, employ long pseudoscience posts, or don't address adverse health consequences are the domains of very questionable health advice.
Visit the original site http://www.lymephotos.com/ where all the salt/ Vitamin C hoopla started. Sadly, it has always looked like a very sick Internet joke to me--an encouragement, even--to delusional thinking. Beyond the strange precept that Lyme patients are full of worms and parasites--backed by odd photos--one concept after another is not only beyond reason but smacks of a perverted sense of humor, such as:
Cows somehow avoid getting Lyme disease because of their love for salt. Slugs are killed when salt is put on them; this same idea can be applied to killing internal parasites and worms in the human body. The treated person will feel--but not see--parasites or worms coming out of his body The anonymous author describes worms coming out of his ears and head.
There is more of course, but beyond the physiological implausibility of the claims and the fantastical musings, the author irresponsibly encourages a potentially harmful treatment to children, the elderly

Salt/C...people profiting?? Selling?? Are you kidding?? Salt and Vit C are cheap.
Do they cure LD? I have no idea.
Am I going to investigate what I saw in the toilet bowl..absolutely!
And, taking large amounts of anything (or even small amounts) can be harmful. We all know people who've taken doses of abx and had extreme reactions.
When was the last time you bought supplements at your LLMD's office? Cha-ching...mostly useless from what we've seen...might as well have just stuffed a bunch of $50 dollar bills down the drain.
Sorry to hear that from your perspective salt/C "has always looked like a very sick Internet joke to me--an encouragement, even--to delusional thinking. Beyond the strange precept that Lyme patients are full of worms and parasites--backed by odd photos--one concept after another is not only beyond reason but smacks of a perverted sense of humor."
Well, I assure you that my sense of humor is not perverted, nor have I ever been prone to delusional thinking. I have never presumed anyone to be "full of worms" either. Maybe you should do the poop-and-look thing that some of us have done.
Odd as you might find it, I know what I saw in my own toilet bowl, and to not investigate further would surely "smack" of lack of common sense.
I am put off by your statement "implausibility of the claims and the fantastical musings"
Do you think we're a bunch of idiots?
Oh, and I don't need someone named Rita to get me thinking. My thinking's just fine, thanks.

Before I took any treatment from my LLMD I gathered as much information as I could to ask questions if I had any doubts.

As I have explained before, I am not necessarily trying to push the salt/c protocol on anyone.
The reason I have posted the lymephotos site is to make people here aware of the co-infections of parasites and worms.
Part of the problem with what you posted is the fact that I and other members here have witnessed the same parasites coming out as pictured on lymephotos.
To negate that is as much as saying that WE are lying also. That is insulting our intelligence, integrity and our credibility.
Not cool. especially when we share our personal information here for the world to read so that others can possibly be aware of this and can get help.
Again, it's not about the treatment of salt/c that I have been so passionate about, but to make people aware that these parasites may be lurking within causing a great deal of suffering.

Day 4 of salt/C protocol: doing well, sang 5 songs in church today with full gusto, haven't been able to do this sinse the bullseye rash first showed up. AM foot pain is still gone. "Abnormal Fatigue Factor" is 95% improved. Push and crash did not happen today. Still passing dots and lines in urine, but much less than when first started. One red thing about 3mm long x .5 mm in diameter tonight. TMI? sorry

Hi dyna,
The dots and lines are familiar to me. I remember them well. Were they red? If it's what I am thinking, the dots are the eggs pictured on lymephotos. The "lines" I passed were bright red also and I
think they were possibly flukes. Thanks for the update,
Gael

How long on this protocol before you 'feel' or see results? Do you have to be at the max dosage before this happens?

The owner of the lymephotos site said it took 2 months before some of the parasites "let go". I think they had probably worked their way up to about 12 gms a day.
I was on antiparasitic herbs for 6 months which had already started killing them, but I didn't see anything in the toilet until 2 days after I started the salt/c and then they just came pouring out of me.

I was ony on a low dose..maybe 1/2 tsp if I remember correctly
The herbs had already started to kill he parasites, and when I intoduced the salt, they couldn't hold on any more.
They are masters at survival and are difficult to kill,

Day 5 of salt/C protocol , woke up with RA type pain. Got it resolved in about an hour. Did all 10 doses of 2gsalt/2gVitC. A little shaky around 5 this afternoon but feeling better now. Evidence is still showing in toilet but much less now. Made spagetti today and ate it, it was good. Skin on the sides of my feet feel like shards of glass. Tinnitis is back in full song, otherwise feeling closer to normal.
