The Protocols
CORE PROTOCOL FOR LYME DISEASE
LYME DISEASE PREVENTION | NEW TICK BITES
BABESIA | BARTONELLA | MYCOPLASMA | CANDIDA
Since the publication of Healing Lyme, Stephen Buhner has updated the core protocol based on feedback from the field. Below is the most up-to-date basic core protocol to treat lyme disease. He published the updated, second edition of Healing Lyme in December 2015, which contains the full expanded protocol. It is highly recommended that you purchase the second edition of Healing Lyme so you can access the most up-to-date protocol information.
The most current basic protocols for babesia, bartonella, and mycoplasma are below, but again, it is highly recommended that you purchase the individual books for each of these conditions for the expanded protocols.
All of Stephen Buhner’s latest books can be purchased through the bookstore.
CORE PROTOCOL FOR LYME DISEASE
1. Japanese knotweed root (Polygonum cuspidatum) –
• Root powder: 1 tsp – 1 TBS 3x daily. Start at the lower dose and work up, OR . . .
• Tincture: ¼ to 1 tsp 3-6x daily, OR . . .
• Tablets (Green Dragon Botanicals): These are normally labeled as resveratrol on the bottle. They are in fact knotweed root standardized for resveratrol content. (Note: Don’t use grape resveratrol; it won’t work very well.) Some comments on tablet dosages below:
2. Cat’s claw (Uncaria tomentosa) –
• Powder: 1 tsp 3x daily, OR . . .
• Tincture: ¼ – ½ tsp 3x daily, OR . . .
• Tablets/capsules (Green Dragon Botanicals): 1–4 500 mg tablets/capsules 3x day.
[for additional sources see: cat’s claw alternatives];
3. Andrographis (Andrographis paniculata) –
• Capsules: Begin with a small dose and work up. Stephen recommends 600 mg (1 capsule) 3x daily to begin with, for one week. Then, if there are no side effects, increase the dose to 2 capsules 3x daily. Please check the side effects on this herb: Unpleasant allergic reactions can occur.
4. If you have neuroborrelliosis, add: Gou-Teng (Uncaria rhynchophylla) –
• Tincture: ½ – 1 tsp 3–6x daily, depending on severity of brain infection.
5. Collagen support protocols are often essential, as well.
LYME DISEASE PREVENTION
The primary herb for prevention is astragalus. Stephen recommends a minimum of 1,000 mg daily if you live in a lyme endemic area. This will keep the immune markers high that need to be high to prevent infection or, if you are infected, to keep the disease symptoms as minimal as possible.
NEW TICK BITES
For new tick bites, Stephen typically recommends taking astragalus – 3,000 mg daily for 30 days, 1,000 mg daily thereafter, indefinitely. Also: using a paste made of andrographis tincture mixed with green clay, the paste applied on the tick bite area can often prevent an active infection. See also: recent tick bites.
BABESIA
Stephen generally recommends the use of a Sida acuta, Alchornea cordifolia, and Cryptolepis sanguinolenta blend for the treatment of babesia these days: ¼-1/2 tsp 3x daily. You could as well do ¼ tsp of each of these three tinctures 3x daily. These three tinctures can be purchased from woodlandessence.com. You can also use just one of those herbs; his first choice is Sida acuta, second is Cryptolepis sanguinolenta. Stephen no longer recommends artemisinin or artemisia for babesia infections. It can work, but whatever you are treating, Sida acuta will work better, especially for babesia or bartonella.

BARTONELLA
Research is ongoing, this is the most up to date protocol:
Sida acuta tincture (from Woodland Essence or julie@gaianstudies.org) ¼ tsp 3x day for 30 days
Hawthorn tincture, same
Japanese knotweed, (tincture, same dose (from same sources as Sida acuta, above), or capsules from Green Dragon Botanicals 2 capsules 3x daily)
EGCG 400mg +- daily

All for 30 days.
PLEASE NOTE: If you have active herpes, chicken pox, or shingles DO NOT USE L-arginine.

MYCOPLASMA
Serrapeptase: 1 capsule daily on empty stomach – this will help break the mycoplasma cell walls open and make them more vulnerable to the herbs;
Cryptolepis as a systemic antibiotic. 1 tsp 3x daily (woodlandessence.com);
Gluten-free diet: Mycoplasma actually likes gluten so you should avoid it, and white sugar as well and also nuts and seeds and any oils that come from them;
Bee pollen to help replace the amino acids that the mycoplasma are consuming – 1 TBS daily in the a.m.;
To help adrenals and energy Stephen recommends the muscle tone formula from Woodland Essence which is composed of pine pollen, aralia, and American ginseng tinctures – 1 dropperful 3x
