The tincture came quickly. I've been taking it for two weeks and my many chronic Lyme symptoms are diminishing steadily. For three months before, I had been on a combination formula of four other Lyme killers, together with a biofilm disruptor. It was good but I plateaued. Taking this tincture has been dramatic as I first took too much and induced a painful herxheimer reaction. Now on a dosage that keeps me functional. Good progress in 2 weeks. I'm very pleased.

lyme disease connection
I have chronic lyme disease that flares up occasionally. I ordered cryptolepis and bloodroot and one or both have helped my symptoms. Delivery was quick and I will deal with this company in th future.

EXCELLENT TINCTURE!!!
I had bought this before for my husband. We were able to stop the Lyme Disease because we acted quickly. Had plenty left in bottle when we found out that a friend, who was diagnosed with Lyme, was in a huge flare up…we gave her our bottle. It helped her GREATLY. Also, this larger order was to protect our dogs, as this is a heavy tick year. We won’t be without this tincture!!
