A serious health problem identified in 1975 has become one of the most well-known illnesses today. Once diagnosed as rheumatoid arthritis, this tick-borne disorder named after the town in Connecticut where it was first identified affects millions all over the world. Treating Lyme disease naturally has become a well-regarded way to alleviate symptoms and stop progressive harm to health and well-being.
This illness is diagnosed by a blood test, which may reveal the spirochetes that carry the infection. However, many people, including medical doctors, feel that some cases may return negative results even though the illness is present. This is one reason why people turn to natural methods, which require no prescription.
The herbal products that seem to combat this illness are immune-system boosters. If the disorder is not present, no harm is done, since boosting immunity is beneficial in any case. One widely-used herb is cat's claw, a tropical plant found in South America. It is available in liquid extract or in capsule form.
Cat's claw, which gets its common name from its thorns, has long been used for arthritis and joint pain. To be effective against Lyme, some of the active ingredients in the plant must be rendered inert. There are several special preparations of this herb on the market; look for ones that are formulated specifically for this particular problem.
Many people may seek a doctor's diagnosis but choose to use natural means to regain health. Doctors prescribe heavy doses of antibiotics when the illness is detected; these drugs often must be taken for extended periods of time. Antibiotics appear to be most effective when the illness is diagnosed quickly. If the problem is a long-standing one, antibiotics may not cure the problem.
Many people don't like the idea of taking antibiotics at all, much less for a long period of time. Some consequences of long-term use include yeast over-growth and consequent skin problems, as well as lowered immunity. Other people may want to follow an initial course of antibiotics with an herbal product, to get the benefits of both. This method may be effective against spirochetes which lie dormant in internal organs until the antibiotics are gone from the system and then emerge to cause further problems.
There is also a North American herb which has shown itself effective in alleviating symptoms of Lyme's. This is teasel, a common roadside weed. It looks like a thistle when blooming, and the dried seed pods resemble small pineapples. Teasel can be bought online from herbal companies. It can also be harvested from waste lands. The roots should be dug in November, cleaned, and chopped. They should then be soaked in vodka for six weeks. The liquid is drained off and used as needed. Dosage guidelines can be found online or on product labels.
This illness should not be ignored. Anyone who works outdoors is in danger of contamination and should be concerned about unusual joint pain, tremors, skin disorders, heart rhythm abnormalities, and nervous system problems. It is thought that the risk of Alzheimer's is heightened by contacting this illness. Some authorities feel that mosquitoes, horseflies, and fleas may also spread the disease. There are many informational sites online, as well as local support groups, for those who want more information.
