A colleague of mine asked about how I use mushroom with Lyme disease patients. Here are the top eleven mushrooms I use and their healing properties:

1. Agaricus (liver support, anti-cancer),
2. Agarikon (anti bacterial, antiviral),
3. Chaga (anti-cancer, immune support, lower inflammation),
4. cordyceps (fatigue, anti-cancer, immune support, libido, anti-inflammatory),
5. Lions mane (neuroprotective, anxiety, depression, MS-remyelination, anti-inflammatory),
6. Maitake (fatigue, low vitamin D, anti-cancer, immune modulation),
7. Poria (drain dampness, tonify heart/spleen, tonify yin, neuroprotection, anxiety, restlessness, insomnia),
8. Reishi (tonify the spirit / ling, depression, anxiety, anti-cancer, fatigue, immune support, anti-aging),
9. Reishi spores (same as reishi, retroviruses),
10. Shiitake (anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, low vitamin D, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal)
11. Turkey tail (anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, healing leaky gut, anti-bacterial)

These mushrooms are given in a microparticle liposomes to Lyme disease and chronic infection patients to get their healing deeper into the brain, liver, cells, and tumors.

Hey it’s Greg,

I’m talking about how peptides, hydrogen inhalation, and
microparticle essential oils have been a game changer for
neuro-Lyme patients today on the Chronic Lyme Summit:

(This update on the Coronavirus has been modified from Dr. Richard Horowitz’s office original message: https://mailchi.mp/29092556b4ef/coronavirus-information?e=62a25e8983)

Many of you have been contacting the office about Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), a respiratory illness that can spread from person to person. Symptoms can include fever, cough, and shortness of breath (due to pneumonia). There appear however to be certain differences between the presentation of COVID-19 and other viral infections that circulate at this time of year. One of the healthcare workers with a master’s degree who worked in Shenzhen Hospital (Guangdong Province, China) highlighted certain differences. I have included these differences along with reports from health care agencies:

Symptoms:

• A runny nose and sputum, is more indicative of the common cold. Coronavirus pneumonia is a dry cough generally with no runny nose. A runny nose shows up in only 4 percent of individuals, and that may be people who also happen to have a cold or a flu.
• The nasal congestion is particularly severe, and not like the normal kind experienced with viruses. If you experience this, it’s important to get tested and seek medical attention. Testing kits are now being made available (the FDA [U.S. Food and Drug Administration] cleared the way to let people use in-house testing kits).
• The virus will first infect the throat, causing a sore throat lasting 3-4 days.
• It may then enter the trachea and lungs, causing pneumonia. This may take another 5-6 days and is associated with high fever and difficulty in breathing. Any symptoms such as the ones experienced above should alert you to contact your health care provider for further instructions.
• Overall, 90% of people get a fever, 80 % get a dry cough and 30 % get shortness of breath and malaise/fatigue.80 percent of these cases however are “mild” including pneumonia, not requiring hospitalization.
• Of utmost importance is to keep calm. Highest risk individuals are the elderly (70-75 or older) with underlying medical problems (cardiac, pulmonary issues like emphysema). As per Dr Marguerite Neill an infectious disease expert at Brown University: “The mantra is, ‘Keep calm and carry on’”. The illness seems to be very mild in children, younger people, and young adults. Data from the largest study conducted in China, suggests that of coronavirus patients receiving medical attention, 80 percent had mild infections, about 15 percent had severe illnesses, and 5 percent were critical. From the China CDC  we understand that the virus is most dangerous to those who are immunocompromised, elderly, and those who have cardiovascular disease, diabetes, hepatitis B, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, chronic kidney disease, and cancer. China CDC’s analysis of 44,672 patients found that the fatality rate in patients who reported no other health conditions was 0.9%. In addition, 81% of all diagnosed cases were considered mild or asymptomatic.

Protection:

• There are differences in reports of how far the virus can travel by airborne route. Reports vary between 6 feet and 10 feet before it drops to the ground and is no longer airborne, and if it drops on a metal surface it will live for at least 12 hours – so if you come into contact with any metal surface – wash your hands as soon as you can with a bacterial soap. If the virus comes into contact with fabric, it can survive for 6-12 hours. Normal laundry detergent will kill it.
• Wash your hands frequently with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, as the virus can only live on your hands for 5-10 minutes, but a lot can happen during that time – you can rub your eyes, pick your nose unwittingly and so on. Use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol if soap and water are not available.
• You can gargle as a prevention. A simple solution of salt in warm water will suffice. Also drink plenty of warm water (not liquids with ice).
• If you’re sick and coughing, and you have to be out (for example, going to a doctor’s office) that’s when you should wear a mask. A mask at home would be recommended if you are sick and quarantining yourself in your bedroom, so others in the household do not get sick.  
• If you will be on an airplane, take some sanitizing wipes with you to wipe the tray table and the hand rests and the areas that you might come into contact with on the plane. In general, extra cleanliness is recommended (bathroom surfaces, computer keyboards, etc.). If you are using a hand sanitizer (vs washing your hands for 20 seconds) apply the gel to the palm of one hand and then rub your hands together for 20 seconds. The CDC has warned older and at-risk travelers to avoid Japan, Italy and Iran. The agency also has advised against all nonessential travel to South Korea and China.
• When meeting people, consider the Asian custom of putting your hands together and bowing as a sign of respect, instead of shaking hands.

COVID19 is spreading from the East to West Coast. I am forwarding to you basic information, links to the CDC and Maryland Department of Health as well as some nutritional support that we have been recommending from our medical office:

Prevention 

The best way to prevent infection is to avoid being exposed to the virus that causes COVID-19. There are simple everyday preventive actions to help prevent the spread of respiratory viruses, including: 

• Avoid close contact with people who are sick.
• Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.
• Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. Use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol if soap and water are not available.

If you are sick, to keep from spreading respiratory illness to others, you should:

Stay home except to get medical care. Phone consults can be arranged with our office.

• Call ahead before visiting your doctor.
• Wear a facemask.
• Cover your coughs and sneezes in the crook of your arm or in a tissue, not in your hands.
• Avoid sharing personal household items.
• Clean and disinfect frequently touched objects and surfaces.
• Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. Use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol if soap and water are not available.

Further Information 

The Centers for Disease Control provides updates on the virus and safety information for the public. You can find a fact sheet with what you need to know here: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html

Experts have been working hard to understand this new strain of coronavirus. Because new information is coming out every day, please visit the sites above to stay up to date. The safety of you and your loved ones is of the utmost importance.

General Recommendations from the Lyme Research & Healing Center:

Nutritional support: Apart from the above recommendations, there are nutritional supplements that support immune function and have been shown in the scientific literature to be of benefit in helping the immune system to fight infection. Keep in mind, none of these have been tested against COVID-19 but may be of benefit as they have antiviral and immune supporting properties.

1. Jade Windscreen Herbal Formula (Chinese name Yu Ping Feng Wan): astragalus, atractylodes, and siler root formula which can help to support the immune system to protect against viral infections. Four pills a day, up to three times a day is recommended.

2. Zinc: between 40-50 mg/day. Zinc has been shown to have beneficial effects in fighting infections. Zinc lozenges can also support immune function and have also been proven to be effective in blocking coronavirus and other viruses from multiplying in the throat and nasopharynx. These can be taken several times a day once you begin to feel symptoms.

3. Vitamin C: up to 1 gram three times a day. (There are currently 3 clinical trials in China using IV vitamin C to treat COVID-19 and our colleagues in the integrative medical community, Dr Tom Levy MD and Dr Jeanne Drisko MD, are involved in the protocol.

4. If upper respiratory symptoms appear, Minor Bupleurum Formula (bupleurum, scutellaria, pinellia, ginseng, licorice, red dates, ginger) which is being used in Chinese hospitals for COVID19 patients (see below), other Chinese herbs formula) can be added at two tablets up to three times a day. This herbal supplement also supports healthy immune and respiratory function and is ONLY for short term use. Four capsules three times per day would be for a larger individual and for more aggressive treatment at the acute onset of illness. Since this formula works by increasing the immune response, Lyme disease patients with active disease could have a Herxheimer reaction and should therefore adjust the dose accordingly.

5. If typical flu symptoms appear (runny nose, sneezing, cough), elderberry extract has also been shown to help fight the flu virus. We are recommending elderberry lozenges and liquid extracts. This again, is for short term use at the earliest sign of the flu (aches and pains, sneezing, runny nose, fatigue..) and can be used with classical antivirals like Tamiflu.

6. Silver: silver has been shown to have a broad range of antibacterial and anti-viral effects. We are suggesting products such as ASAP HCP Health Max 30 (nano-silver), as patients taking it have measurable levels of silver while using this product. Dosage would be up to a teaspoon 7x per day if viral symptoms appear. This should not be used long term due to potential side effects (argyrism).

7. General recommendations: get enough sleep, regular exercise, eat a healthy diet with vitamins and minerals (vitamin A also has positive effects), use spices like garlic and ginger with extra citrus fruits and red peppers for vitamin C. Fermented foods can be helpful for the GI tract (not if you have histamine sensitivity and mast cell disorder) and make sure you are getting adequate vitamin D intake (minimum 2000IU/day, up to 10,000 U/day).

8. Propolis: Dr. Ramzi Asfour, an infectious disease physician, likes Beekeeper’s Naturals propolis spray. Propolis increases cellular immune response and acts as an antiviral.

9. Report from a Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) doctor in China on what is the common diagnosis and what is working to reduce chronic pneumonia symptoms with COVID19 patients from this article translated by Dr. John Chen: https://www.elotus.org/article/medical-records-young-and-brave-female-traditional-chinese-medicine-tcm-doctor-fighting-covi
“most patients had the diagnosis of Cold-Damp in the Lungs, they primarily received the oral antiviral medications, Oseltamivir and Abidol. We observed that some patients required IV fluids. The primary Chinese medicine formulas used with these medications were:

· Xiao Chai Hu Tang (Minor Bupleurum Decoction)

· Chai Hu Gui Zhi Tang (Bupleurum and Cinnamon Twig Decoction)

· Ma Huang Fu Zi Xi Xin Tang* (Ephedra, Asarum, and Prepared Aconite Decoction) (*note that this formula contains ephedra (Ma Huang) which is not available in the US)

· Gua Lou Xie Bai Ban Xia Tang (Trichosanthes Fruit, Chinese Chive, and Pinellia Decoction)”

We have these formulas, except for Ma Huang Fu Zi Xi Xin Tang, in our clinic available to our patients. The herbs in formulas support patients by draining dampness and cold out of the lungs and enhancing immune response.

Other drugs being tested, which have not yet been proven to work for COVID-19:

There is no approved antiviral drug for the coronavirus, though several are being tested. The CDC has a site however discussing antiviral medications for the flu: https://www.cdc.gov/flu/treatment/whatyoushould.htm

11. Alinia : Nitazoxanide, is a new drug candidate for the treatment of Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus. Nitazoxanide is a broad-spectrum antiviral agent undergoing clinical development for treatment of influenza and other viral respiratory infections. Nitazoxanide exhibits in vitro activity against Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus (MERS-CoV) and other coronaviruses, Having been used extensively in clinical trials and in post-marketing experience, nitazoxanide is an attractive drug candidate for treatment of Middle East respiratory syndrome. Future research should include in vitro mechanism studies, animal models of MERS-CoV infection, clinical trials, including dose-ranging trials, and evaluation of combination therapy with other potential MERS-CoV antivirals.

For people diagnosed with Lyme and co-infections that are always cold and have worse pain in winter months
by Greg Lee

One bitterly cold morning, I turned on the shower and nothing happened. No water, nada, not a drop. I thought, “Oh crap, a pipe must have frozen.” If the pipe doesn’t thaw, ice could make the pipe burst and that would be a huge mess. I opened up the access panel and put a heater on the pipes to help them thaw out.

How is a frozen water pipe similar to bone chilling coldness in people with Lyme disease and co-infections?

Similar to a frozen water pipe, Lyme and tick co-infections can freeze up your immune system
One way your immune system fights off infections is by heating up and creating a fever. One theory why Lyme disease and co-infections can persist is that they create toxins which stop the body from heating up and creating fevers. These toxins affect the hypothalamus which is the part of your brain which regulates your temperature. Unfortunately, toxins in the blood can be absorbed directly into the hypothalamus which prevents it from heating up the body¹. As a result, some Lyme and co-infection patients that are always cold can have body temperatures as low as 95 degrees Farenheit. These toxins disrupt how these people can make fevers to kill off infections. A lower body temperature can also make symptoms worse especially in colder months.

Lyme and co-infection patients often report increased pain, fatigue, and insomnia in the winter
In Chinese medicine, winter winds, rain / dampness, and cold are able to “invade” into the body and increase symptoms like migratory pain, fatigue, and internal coldness². Many of my Lyme and co-infection patients report greater pain, fatigue, and depression especially in the winter months. Their increased symptoms may disrupt sleep, increase mental fog, and decrease the motivation and energy to make and eat a healthy diet. These patients report that they take lots of hot baths, drink hot liquids, and bundle up with multiple layers to try and reduce their symptoms in the winter.

What else may help people with Lyme and co-infections to dispel aches, fatigue, and depression of winter?

Fortunately, there are four essential oils that warm the body from the inside out and reduce painful inflammatory compounds
According to Chinese medicine, there are several essential oils that can help to warm up the body, lower pain, reduce fatigue, and inflammation. Several of these oils also increase the levels of glutathione and other antioxidant enzymes in animal studies. Glutathione inhibited the development of complex regional pain symptoms in a rat study³. These oils have been classified by the Food and Drug Administration as “Generally Recognized as Safe” (GRAS) and some of these essential oils have been used safely for years in our food supply⁴. Formulating these essential oils into microparticles called liposomes may help them penetrate deeper inside cells and into the brain⁵ to warm up and relieve cold, painful areas.

Warming & Pain Reducing Essential Oil #1: Fennel
Fennel essential oil helps to warm the body, replenish Q or energy, and helps to moisten dryness according to Chinese medicine⁶. In infant studies, fennel oil was helpful in reducing colic⁷. In rat studies, fennel oil reduced painful uterine contractions⁸ and colitis⁹. In another rat study, this oil protected the liver and kidneys against toxic injury¹⁰. Fennel oil also protected the liver against toxic injury in a mouse study¹¹.

In another mouse study, fennel essential oil was effective at increasing antioxidant enzymes glutathione S-transferase (GST), glutathione reductase (GR), glutathione peroxidase (GPx), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) in the liver¹². Fennel oil reduced anxiety in another mouse study¹³. This oil is classified as Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) by the FDA¹⁴.

Fennel oil is contraindicated in pregnancy, breastfeeding, endometriosis, estrogen-dependent cancers, children under five years of age. This oil is cautioned in patients taking diabetes medications and anticoagulant medications. It is also cautioned with major surgery, peptic ulcer, hemophilia, other bleeding disorders¹⁵. In addition to fennel, turmeric essential oil may also help to increase body temperature.

Warming & Pain Reducing Essential Oil #2: Turmeric
Turmeric essential oil has warming properties according to Chinese medicine¹⁶. In animal experiments, turmeric essential oil reduced painful rheumatoid arthritic joint symptoms¹⁷. In a mouse experiment, this oil increased superoxide dismutase, glutathione, and glutathione reductase enzyme levels in blood and glutathione-S-transferase and superoxide dismutase enzymes in liver¹⁸. This oil has demonstrated multiple healing properties including: reducing brain inflammation, protecting the liver against toxins, reducing the risk of stroke, protecting against convulsions, and reducing anxiety in several animal and human studies¹⁹.  This oil is classified as Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) by the FDA²⁰. Turmeric oil is cautioned with diabetes medications²¹. Dill essential oil may also help provide warm greater internal heat according to Chinese medicine.

Warming & Pain Reducing Essential Oil #3: Dill seed
Dill seed essential oil has warming properties according to Chinese medicine²². In a rat study, dill seed oil reduced toxic swelling and discomfort²³. In another rat study, dill oil exhibited cardio-protective properties²⁴. This oil is classified as Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) by the FDA²⁵. Dill oil is contraindicated in pregnancy²⁶. Dill essential oil is cautioned in patients taking diabetes medications²⁷.

Rosemary essential oil may also increase warmth and decrease pain in low body temperature Lyme and co-infection patients.

Warming & Pain Reducing Essential Oil #4: Rosemary
Rosemary essential oil has warming properties according to Chinese medicine²⁸. Rosemary oil has been used to relieve renal colic pain and reduced the pain reaction in a mouse study²⁹. In a human study, rosemary essential oil combined with other oils reduced pain and depression in arthritis patients³⁰. In another animal study, this oil increased local blood circulation and alleviated pain³¹. In a rat study, rosemary oil exhibited liver protecting properties and increased levels of antioxidant enzymes catalase, peroxidase, glutathione peroxidase and glutathione reductase³². This oil is classified as Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) by the FDA³³. Rosemary Camphor chemotype or α-Pinene chemotype are the best for internal use. Do not apply rosemary 1,8-cineole chemotype to or near the face of infants or children³⁴. These essential oils alone or in combination may help to reduce symptoms of coldness and pain caused by Lyme disease and co-infection toxins that are lowering body temperature.

Essential oils may help to increase internal warmth and the immune system’s ability to create fevers to kill Lyme and co-infections
Similar to heating up a frozen pipe to get a hot water flowing again, essential oils that increase internal warmth and lower pain may help the immune system to heat up and kill off Lyme and co-infections. Formulating these essential oils into microparticle liposomes may enhance their ability to penetrate into, warm up, and reduce pain in cells, the brain, and other organs where infections are hiding. Since these essential oils have cautions and contraindications on their use, work with a Lyme literate essential oil practitioner to develop a proper, safe, and effective strategy for your condition.
