So i've been off abx for a month now. and i was on a ton. i was on rif. zith and mep for about 9 months (rif only 6). anyway - i was doing alright but not great on the abx. every time i took the mepron away i swear i would start to spiral. so when i quit the abx last month i picked up some garlic. btw i have bart,babs and lyme
Let me share with you my process...i actually dont get that stinky and i certainly do herx. i buy fresh garlic and crush 4-6 cloves nightly into a small cup. then i add water and take it like a shot. you have to add water again and again til you shoot back all the garlic. then you get his by a wave of herxing/fatigue/blood vessel widenings. anyway it has kept my symptoms and fatigue at bay. i wake up feeling like my body waged war over night - but then i do a hot yoga class and these toxins are gone.
the hot yoga can be tiring at times - i dont do bikram i do a vinyasa flow class in a 90 degree room. the stabilizing and mood enhancing effects it has on my mindset are priceless...
i dont see my self going back to abx (the burruscano approach) anytime soon. if anything i may give other fringe treatments a shot - i am noticing that my inflammation shoots up in direct sunlight/daytime. (marshall protocol is in the back of my head)
thought i would share, pm me with questions,

Suggest you look into Dr Jernigan's protocol.

- Glad to hear this is working for you. I envy those who can eat hot foods.
While some can handle swallowing raw garlic, it can cause serious burns for others - to the mouth, throat, esophagus, stomach lining.
So, care is vital. For those thinking about raw garlic, start with just a tiny amount. There are good garlic/allicin capsules that don't dissolve until further down into the GI tract.
BioPure Freeze Dried Garlic or Hepapro Allicin are both good choices. -
