Lyme Disease and Oxidative Stress

🍀One thing I know from herbally treating my own Lyme disease is...there IS hope. 

Lyme Disease results:

“I got diagnosed with Lyme Disease back in Nov 2011 (By the way, I never found a bite, so don't assume you have to!) For the next 3 years, I was treated with Doxycycline on 3 separate occasions. My Lyme would fall into the "dormant" state and then resurface. Regardless of how many times I was treated with antibiotics, my Lyme symptoms never improved. Extreme fatigue, brain fog, joint aches, and headaches persisted.

I had a chronic disease specialist and one of the best endocrinologist's in Pennsylvania run 15 more blood tests on me and all they could say was, "Sorry Allyssa, I don't know what else to do for you. I think you're just running yourself too hard and need to take it easy". I thought to myself, "Cool! I'm 23 years old, take 2 naps a day for 2-3 hours at a time. Can sleep for 12 hours and not feel rested. But yea, I'm fine!!!"

Fast forward, a year later I sought out a Holistic M.D whose clientele is comprised of two-thirds Lyme patients. He helped me understand that my symptoms which still existed were primarily due to Adrenal Fatigue (exhaustion of your adrenals due to stress), which is common in those who have a chronic disease such as Lyme. 

For the next 3 months, he placed me on a hefty regimen of supplements and necessary medications. I noticed a slight improvement, but nothing revolutionizing. I bet you can guess why my body wasn't able to utilize that regimen very efficiently.... You got it. Oxidative Stress.

I started taking the product, in Mid October. I decided to take it twice a day (every 12 hours) to get it in my system as fast as possible. (I've played around with taking it once or twice a day, and I will forever stick with the latter.) In the first week, I was one of those people that experienced detox symptoms. 

I had some headaches, felt lethargic (which was nothing new lol), and had some GI distress. But my mental clarity and focus improved. My brain fog was decreasing and I started feeling more rested when I woke up in the morning. This was all wonderful, but I was DYING FOR MORE ENERGY. 

After about 4 weeks, it finally happened. There was a substantial difference in my energy level, and I finally felt as though all my other supplements and medications my MD had me on could do their job! After 8 weeks on Protandim, I was able to cut out 80% of those other supplements. Just last month, I was actually able to come off of my anti-depressant that'd I'd been on for the last 9 years as well.”

Does it cure, treat, or prevent Lyme Disease? No. But this disease puts A LOT of oxidative stress on your body. If you have access to a supplement that can cut a huge chunk of that down, WHY WOULD YOU NOT TAKE IT?
