The Four Pillars of Health


What happens when one or two pillars begin to crack?


What if all 4 pillars break?


Diet and Nutrition

How can you prevent your patients from sabotaging their recovery with poor diet choices?

We all know there is no diet that suits everyone trying to recover from Lyme disease!

People often focus on what they can’t eat.

Or they go to extremes in limiting macronutrients in an attempt to starve certain infections.


Why is it a mistake to limit certain macronutrients long-term in an

attempt to starve infections?


Parasites like Entamoeba Histolytica thrive on animal protein.



Protomyxzoa Rheumatica thrives on fats and oils.




Candida Albicans thrives on carbohydrates.




Candida Albicans thrives on carbohydrates.

So to starve all your bugs, all you have to do is stop eating all protein, fats, and carbohydrates!


Some General Dietary Guidelines When Recovering from Lyme Disease

Avoid all processed food, junk foods, fast foods, gluten, sugar, dairy products, GMO foods, mercury-laden fish and seafood, and of course, foods that you are allergic to.

Do consume: partly raw, organic, nutrient-dense whole foods such as green leafy vegetables and other veggies, fruits, berries, nuts and seeds, whole non-gluten grains, beans, peas, lentils, healthy oils, and high-quality organic meats and eggs, if you choose to eat animal protein.


Joel Fuhrman – “Eat for Health”

This diet seems to be well-tolerated by many people with Lyme disease. This is the diet I recommended for the 5 case studies included in this presentation.


It seems that one of the more persistent problems with Lyme patients is eating sugar addictively as a coping method.

While some go straight for the good stuff like sodas, candy, and ice cream that are all loaded with sucrose and high fructose corn syrup..............others may state that they NEVER eat sugar.

But on the other hand they do eat…

When it comes to diet, one of our goals as holistic practitioners is to recognize dietary habits that can be sabotaging the person's recovery.


• AGAVE NECTAR• HONEY• MAPLE SYRUP• MOLASSES• BROWN RICE SYRUP• SUCANAT• COCONUT SYRUP

When all is said and done, what's the difference!!!

Why do people think that sugar is somehow not sugar??

The ability to process sugar from plants is a fairly recent change to the human food supply. From a health standpoint, does it really make that much difference which plant you process the sugar from?

Eaten addictively, sugar always causes harm regardless of what form it is in. The ability to eat it in moderation is very difficult.


Exercise is SOOOO important to regaining strength while recovering from a chronic illness. Some tips that help a chronically ill couch potato begin a graduated exercise program:

• Create multiple outlets to exercise, i.e., walking routes, or jogging/running once you are strong enough, gym membership, street or mountain bike, home exercise equipment, swimming, etc.

• Start very slowly.

• Pick a time that is right for you such as morning, midday, afternoon, or evening and try to do a little bit almost every day or it will not likely become a habit.


• Find an exercise partner that is at or around your level.

• Work with your skilled holistic practitioner to find the right supplements to adequately support adrenal gland function with homeopathics, glandulars, and adaptogenic herbs, or low dose Rx cortisone.

• Use mitochondrial support supplements like reduced CoQ10, magnesium, alpha Ketoglutaric acid, L-carnitine, etc.


Sleep…Many chronic Lyme disease sufferers have either adrenal exhaustion or an inverted metabolism. They are exhausted in the morning, but their adrenal glands finally rally about midnight.

So when they should be sleeping they are finally feeling some energy.


For natural sedation and deeper sleep:

Amantilla and BabunaNutramedix

Seditol Pure Encapsulations

Pro EzeProgena

Revitalizing Sleep Formula Integrative Therapeutics

GabatoneApex Energetics

Sleep FormulaKaruna

… and plenty of Nutramedix Magnesium Malate along with these at bedtime.


Positive Mental Outlook

• EZOV- Nutramedix remedy• EVOX - Voice pattern reprogramming • FLOWER REMEDIES

Despite the power of these tools, when all is said and done, if a person chooses to allow habitual negative thoughts to continue to dominate their thinking, these interventions may very likely fail.

Positive psychology advocate Martin Seligman’s book, "Authentic Happiness" can be a nice additional tool to aid people in changing some of these deeply engrained negative thinking "ruts" in their brain.


Progression into CFS

Some natural strategies that were used:

• Complete one mucoid lining cleanse early on.

• Eat an unprocessed, mostly plant based diet (Eat for Health).

• Begin rebuilding damaged gut flora.

• Repair the mucosal integrity of the gut.


5 Case Studies

(with diagnosed Lyme disease or Lyme disease-like symptoms, fatigue, joint paint, brain fog, muscle pain, lack of wellbeing, or

adult failure to thrive.)


• Detoxify the liver with herbs, coffee enemas, liver/gallbladder flushes.

• Drain the lymphatic system with skin brushing, passive exerciser, and photo

magnetic lymph device.

• Comprehensive Electro-Dermal Screening to determine each individual’s supplement

recommendations and antimicrobials.

• Customized mix of Adaptogenic herbs made into an alcohol extract.

• Laser Energetic Detoxification.

• Ozone Sauna


Holistic Methods to Assist with Healing the Gut

Mucoid Lining Cleanse

There is much confusion and controversy about the mucoid lining.

Most medical doctors say it doesn't exist and they have good evidence for saying this, i.e., countless colonoscopies with no lining present.

Many colon hydro-therapists say it is in the colon. It is not in the colon - it is in the small intestine.A good cleanse that seems to bring consistent results most of the time is the Blessed Herbs cleanse.


After the mucoid lining is gone - now what??

Consume fermented foods every day if possible. Feed the critters good quality pre-biotics like slippery elm and glucomannan. Regenerate the gut lining with supplemental Butyrate.

Support the growth of beneficial bacteria with a natural diet that contains plenty of the indigestible fibers that serve as fuel for probiotic bacteria.

Products used:

• HLC Synbiotic Intensive (Pharmax)

• Mega Probiotic -ND (DaVinci Labs)

• Bifido Biotics (Allergy Research Group)

Supplement with high dose probiotics after the cleanse.

Use of Electro-Dermal Screening to select herbs such as Milk Thistle bound to phospholipids, the Burmese herb Andrographis, and the Ayurvedic herb Phyllanthus.

Liver Support and Detoxification

Support phase 1 liver detox, along with phase 2 liver detox with donor nutrients needed for glutathione conjugation, amino acid conjugation, sulfation, acetylation, methylation, and glucuronidation.



To optimize results in attaining the above, use both comprehensive formulas like:

ClearVite (Apex Energetics) and Detoxification Factors (Tyler), along with individual nutrients like Taurine, TMG, Liposomal Glutathione, and Calcium D-glucarate.


Liver Support and Detoxification

• Coffee enemas

• Simplified liver/gallbladder flushes

• Use of bitter, cholagogue herbs before meals


Then perhaps a few days later try taking a combination of the above mentioned liver detox nutrients, wait one hour and take a TBS of olive or flax oil with some gentian extract, wait 20 minutes and do coffee enema.

For a fantastic cleanse combine some of the things above: Start out with a liver gallbladder/flush to purge the bile and stones.

• Good hydration

• Graduated exercise program

• Deep breathing

• Dry lymphatic skin brushing that mimics MLD


Lymphatic Drainage Techniques

• Passive exerciser or Chi machine

• Photo-magnetic lymphatic drainage device such as LBG, Lymph Star, or Photon Genie

• Systemic enzymes, and herbal and homeopathic lymphatic drainers


Lymphatic Drainage Techniques


Electo-Dermal Screening(to create individualized nutritional supplementation) After you have supported gut health, liver detoxification,

lymphatic drainage.... what's then?

• Nutritional support• Anti-inflammatory support• Antioxidant support • Dissolve Bio-film• Give natural antimicrobial support and…• Bind and eliminate toxic metals

Do all the above simultaneously!


To accomplish this a general weekly schedule was followed.

Monday - Wednesday: an intense 3 day bio-film protocol is followed - 5 doses per day of enzymes like Serrapeptase, Nattokinase, Lumbrokinase, pancreatic enzymes, Bromelain, taken with water on an empty stomach (caution is needed if GERD or ulcer is present). Monday - Friday: Each person was given an antimicrobial combinations of four Nutramedix antimicrobials - Samento, Banderol, Cumanda, Quina, Houttunyia, Enula, Nora, Takuna.

The Nutramedix bug killers were combined according to compatibility of products and individual energetic testing.

Nutramedix antimicrobials were taken two at a time and rotated every other week, 5 days on and 2 days off to allow cyst form Borrelia Burgdorferi to convert to spirochetes. Thursday and Sunday - Bind metals with products like DMSA, R-lipoic acid, EDTA and Nutramedix Zeolite HP.

Individualized Adaptogenic Herbal Formulas• Rhodiola • Ashwagandha• Tulsi• American Ginseng

These herbs are adaptogenic, antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory, immune modulating, and support the body after prolonged, physical, emotional, or mental stress .... Basically, everyone with Lyme disease!!

We create a customized formula of these herbs based on energetic testing and put the dry herbs in a jar with printed instructions on how to pour alcohol in and create the alcohol extract.Afr J Tradit Complement Altern Med. 2011; 8(5S): 208–213.

After extracting for two weeks it looks like this:


Laser Energetic Detoxification (L.E.D.)

What do you do with a body that wants to hang onto its heavy metals and chemicals??

Kick start the process by using the LED protocol created by Lee Cowden M.D.

The ZYTO device runs the entire L.E.D. scan in a few minutes whereas it took hours to do so with muscle testing.


Laser Energetic Detoxification (L.E.D.)

The scan energetically identifies heavy metals, chemicals, and bio-toxins, as well as needed homeopathic detox support remedies, homeopathic sarcode support for areas of autoimmunity, areas of toxic focus, and appropriate drainage and binding supplements.

Most people can complete the L.E.D. protocol with 2 sessions: sulfa drugs and chemical toxins, followed by toxic metals. They then continue to take supplements like DMSA, EDTA, Zeolite HP, and R-Lipoic acid 2 or 3 times weekly to continue the process of eliminating the years (or decades) of cumulative mercury and other heavy metals.


Ozone Sauna – What Does it Do?Ozone sauna is basically a delivery method for the absorption of therapeutic amounts of ozone.Benefits:

Enhanced mitochondrial function. Shifting toward More oxidative metabolism instead of anaerobic.

Broad spectrum anti-protozoan, anti-fungal, anti-bacterial, and anti-viral effect.

Increased production of endogenous anti-oxidants like catalase, superoxide dismutase (S.O.D), and glutathione peroxidase. (Dr. F. Shallenberger has shown reduction of free radical markers with ozone therapy; markers go up at first then go down as the body ramps up antioxidant enzymes).

Detoxification of heavy metals and chemical toxins via the skin. Med Gas Res. 2011; 1: 29. Published online 2011 December 20. doi: 10.1186/2045-9912-1-29. Mechanisms of Action Involved in Ozone Therapy: Is healing induced via a mild oxidative stress? Masaru Sagai1 and Velio Bocc


Even individuals who have been regular users of dry saunas and/or infrared saunas sweat out spots like

these the first time they use an ozone sauna.


The Evidence

I took 6 towels that had been used by clients in the ozone saunas.

From those 6 towels I cut out 6 small patches where the gray spots were concentrated.

I cut out a 7th patch of white towel from the corner of one of these towels to serve as a control sample.

I sent all the samples to Doctor's Data Laboratories to see if the gray spotted samples were higher in toxic metals than the control sample.

Were the spotted samples higher in toxic metals?


YES!!!


Case Study #1(49 Y/O Female Very Ill.)

Severe insomnia, muscle and joint pain, esp. in the neck region, and debilitating fatigue, difficulty breathing, digestive problems, gallbladder problems with continuous, day and night nausea, that did not change when gallbladder was removed. Positive Igenex Western Blot for Borrellia Burdorferi after 5 years of Lyme testing came up negative.On her first EDS scan, HALO group showed energetically (contains the resonance of chlorine, fluoride, bromine), along with Methyl-Ethyl-Ketone group. Contains resonance of formaldehyde, acetone, propylene glycol, poly-vinylchloride, chloroform, teflon, and over 20 plastics.)



She did a Laser Energetic Detox (L.E.D.) for the above toxins and the day after the L.E.D. she passed significant amounts of bright orange pigment in a bowel movement, and her chronic severe nausea began to decrease and disappeared after a few months. Some supplements given were: GTF chromium to assist with blood sugar issues, Burbur drainage, Serrapeptase and bromelain, taken together with either Nutramedix Lakato/Samento combination, or Banderol. The metal binders Zeolite HP and DMSA were given, as well as an adaptogenic combination of Tulsi, Ashwagandha, and Rhodiola, and Revitalizing Sleep Formula.



Severe insomnia improved 50% so that she can now sleep with meds. Muscle and joint pain improved 80%, Fatigue- significantly improved but has ups and downs. Client stated: “I’m a lot better now since I started this program, not just physically, but mentally as well.”

Note: the EDS energetic analysis also showed silicone as a toxin resonance when creating the L.E.D. protocol. Client has breast implants and is making plans for removal.

Note: between her 2nd and 3rd appointment, this client worked with a LLMD and took some antibiotics, ABX herbs, and Nutramedix products beginning in May of 2012 before she began working with NHS Arizona, and she reported some gains from this as well.


Case Study #2(47 Y/O Male with Onset of Chronic Fatigue.)

Abdominal bloating, and burning pain in feet (not diagnosed as neuropathy).

Still working as an EMT, but with difficulty.

Extensive use of antibiotics. Reported getting much worse pain after taking the quinolone Cipro. Client appears to have entrenched intestinal dysbiosis that is unresponsive to antimicrobials and high dose probiotics and prebiotics. (referred him to Steven Hines N.D.)

Borrelia Burgdorgferi showed energetically on the EDS scan, along with multiple heavy metal and chemical toxins. Gave Laser Energetic Detoxification (L.E.D.) for the toxins. He also did multiple rounds of ozone sauna and left the white towels covered with gray spots.


Case Study #2(47 Y/O Male with Onset of Chronic Fatigue.)

Nutramedix Enula, Lakato, Houttunyia, and Cumanda were rotated with additional anti-parasitic herbs, bio-film dissolving enzymes, MSM, and D-Flame, along with an individualized adaptogenic herb formula.

Fatigue has improved 45%, abdominal swelling has improved 50%, burning in feet has improved 60%.

Client stated: "I've been dealing with this for 9 or 10 years. I was almost ready to give up. The improvement I have made has given me hope that I can be healthy again.“


Case Study #3(64 Y/O Female – Lyme Disease.)

Bitten by tick in 1998; tested positive for Lyme disease by Viromed laboratories 2 years later. Given one month of antibiotics with moderate improvement.

Came with reported extreme chronic fatigue, brain fog, joint pain and weakness in leg, and some depression.

Borrelia Burgdorgferi showed on the EDS energetic analysis as well, along with Sulfa drugs, pesticides, herbicides, and fungicides, mercury, and arsenic resonance.

She was given L.E.D. for the Sulfa drugs and chemicals, and had her mercury amalgam fillings removed by a biological dentist that week, and finished out the week with an L.E.D. for mercury and the other metals.



Some supplements given were Pleo Sanuvis, Pleo Muc, Parsley drainage, Detoxification Factors, and Nutramedix Magnesium Malate.

Within a few weeks she reported a 50% improvement in fatigue and brain fog, 75% improvement in joint pain and leg weakness, and mild depression was gone (before beginning any antimicrobials!)

Still awaiting further reports from her as she begins the Nutramedix Samento, Cumanda, and bio-film protocol.


Case Study #4(48 Y/O Female- Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fibromyalgia.)

Raised on a ranch and bitten by many, many ticks over a long period of time. This client never chose to be tested for Lyme disease, but has generally sought out natural medicine instead.

Also suffers from insomnia and poor concentration. Unable to work for 6 years.

Borrelia Burgdorgferi showed on the EDS energetic analysis, along with B-MALA, DDT group, perchlorate, and of course, mercury.

She was given L.E.D.s for the toxins and did multiple rounds of ozone sauna, sweating out many gray spots.


Case Study #4(48 Y/O Female- Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.)

Supplements given were Parsley drainage, TG-100, Lugol- 10 drops on the skin, Spleen Terrain, magnesium taurate, Rhodiola, liquid molybdenum, Lyme and co-infection nosodes, and at bedtime Karuna Sleep Formula, and Russian choice immune.

5 months into this program she reported an 80% improvement in fatigue, 95% improvement in Fibromyalgia pain, and a 75% improvement in concentration.


Case Study #4(48 Y/O Female- Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.)

Her sleep has improved 50% even though she chose to discontinue the 2 sleep medications and 1 muscle relaxant and now uses the herbs only.

Client recently returned to work at a bank. She stated, "I feel extremely fortunate to have stumbled onto this. I have had so many natural products recommended, but none of it helped at all. People just don't know where to go to get better.”



Fatigue, equilibrium problems, tremors, and body aches. Unable to enjoy recreation activities with her children and young grandchildren.

Tested positive for Lyme disease working with her medical doctor.

As with all our clients, this woman was seeking a natural program. She did several comprehensive EDS scans, and multiple L.E.D.s for the toxins and several ozone saunas.

Some supplements given were TG-100, Lymphomyosot, Fibroboost, Isocort, Pleo Lat, CoQHCF, Boswellia, Buffered C, Taurox. Antimicrobials used were Banderol and Samento with Nattokinase, Artemesinin, and black walnut.



Fatigue improved 75% (thyroid medication was later added by her M.D.) Equilibrium problems improved 85%, tremors - resolved, body aches improved by 50%.

Client stated: "I would highly recommend this program for someone suffering from Lyme disease or similar health problems.“

In Conclusion!!

Many of the modalities shown here today in this presentation are well known and widely used. They represent some old, and some new therapeutic methods to restore homeostasis and heal from the devastation of Lyme disease.

The ultimate goal for those who have used such therapeutic tools to recover their health is to be able to discontinue them.

If thereafter they make healthy lifestyle choices in the area of the Four Pillars of Health - diet, exercise, sleeping patterns,and mental wellbeing, they can attain……
