LYME DISEASE ALTERNATIVE THERAPIES

The following links are provided as a comprehensive collection of online resources involving alternative treatments for Lyme disease. These links are provided to assist in your own personal research, but do not imply endorsement. These alternative treatments should not replace the standard treatments for Lyme disease, such as antibiotics. Many of the links are geared toward those who have the chronic form of the disease, and LymeInfo advises extra caution when evaluating for-profit sites. Because the sites listed here are, for the most part, limited to specific 'remedies', it may also be helpful to peruse the health page, which includes a broader range of therapeutic approaches.

Although the list of treatments can be overwhelming, there are some key supplements Lyme disease patients take including a multi-vitamin, magnesium malate, essential fatty acids, probiotics and a B-complex. Also consider Co-Q10, a mushroom immune formula, B-12, enzymes, and greens. Many products are available for good prices at iherb.com. Check the links below for dosage and purchasing information. However, in order to receive treatment tailored to your own unique needs, Lymeinfo believes that it is best to be treated by a licensed holistic practitioner knowledgeable about Lyme disease and/or any associated conditions you may experiencing. May you have health and happiness!
