&lt;p&gt; &amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;My suggestion for your daughter would be to find a BioSet practitioner in your area. BioSet actually clears allergies and &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;can strengthen weakened systems in the same treatment. Microbes can be cleared, as well. BioSet was my answer to CFIDs and Lyme. Good Luck! www.bioset.net &lt;/p&gt;

The most effective protocols are those from the Nutramedix website. &amp;nbsp; Lee Cowden, M.D. has developed these and they are they are terrifically effective. &amp;nbsp;There are usually co infections with Lyme disease. Many times with Erlichia and Babesia-- additional bacterial infections. &amp;nbsp;Most of the products used in the protocol are liquid herbals. &amp;nbsp;A number of them are used on a rotation basis that is very specific. &amp;nbsp;Lyme itself can exist in three or more forms. &amp;nbsp;The most vulnerable is the spirochete form which responds to IV antibiotics and sometimes to other treatments. &amp;nbsp;The Lyme pathogen when under stress goes back to the cyst form and is not vulnerable the usual treatment. Hence, the up/down results--plateau and reinfection. &amp;nbsp;The protocol is usually 12 1/2 days on a herbal with 1 1/2 days off. This kills the spirochetes during the 12 1/2 days and the 1 1/2 days off the herbal lets the cyst form convert to the vulnerable spirochete form which are again killed during the next 12 1/2 day cycle. &amp;nbsp;A person would need a minimum of six months to clear the infections since the cysts are with the tissues of the body. &amp;nbsp;My own treatment took about one year and the Nutramedix protocol was not the advanced as it is now. I completed my treatment about 3-4 years ago. &amp;nbsp;The new products and protocol eliminate or try to eliminate the Herxheimer pathogen die off reaction which can really make you feel pretty bad but it is also known as a healing crisis. &amp;nbsp;You have to go slow with the herbals per directions. &amp;nbsp;The herbals are usually effective against a host of pathogens including yeast, viruses. &amp;nbsp;It would be best to find an M.D. you could work with in your area. &amp;nbsp;Hopefully you can find someone familiar with Energetic Medicine and the Nutramedix products/protocols. Good Luck! &lt;/p&gt;

All of my body systems and organs were failing and I had not been able to 'function' for over 2 years. I had been to many different doctors all over my state and kept being referred to specialists who could not find anything wrong with me. My husband was told my problems were all psychological and he needed to take me on a vacation. He did this and I was so sick and 'out of it' that I don't even remember the trip other than being in misery the whole time and trying to be a tourist and just wanting to be back in bed. I had not been a 'praying' person but I prayed for help and believe I was given a path to my healing that eventually took me to a state of better health than I could have ever imagined! I did end up seeing a naturopath who was at the end of his schooling at John Bastyr College in Seattle Washington and this started me on a path of reversal of all the damage done by 30 years of the American diet and standard medical care with all the antibiotics, synthetic hormones in birth control pills, etc, etc. I can say it took a very long time to get back to excellent health and lots if diligence to eat a diet of home grown organic vegetables, raw milk and grass fed meats, 'clean' fresh fish and filtered water, fresh air and sunshine when possible in addition to a daily work out program. I also used caprylic acid, garlic pills, acidophilus, vitamins and minerals and herbs. In the beginning, I could barely walk across a room but I got better and better everyday. It was also costly since naturpathy was not covered on our insurance and neither (of course) are all the supplements but I made it through and 25 years later, I am better than ever! There is hope and a plan for any problem and a way back to excellent health. I believe prayer was the key to my path!&lt;/p&gt;

I've also heard several prominent NDs say that fungal infections are responsible for certain cancers. I know that after a terrible mold infestation in our home (which we remediated right away), my family all felt lethargic, dizzy, apathetic, joint stiffness and depressed. An allopath would probably have put us on anti-depressants! But I did my research and started on an anti-fungal protocol that included Pau D' Arco, Caprylic acid, Cat's Claw and a product from Raintree called Myco-Extract+. The Myco Extract was superb. With an anti-fungal protocol, it is ESSENTIAL to ROTATE THE HERBS, 30-60 days on and then switch. You can do two at a time if you wish. For example, we did the Caprylic Acid and Myco Extract first. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The other product a friend introduced me to was something I will NEVER be without. It's called DEL-IMMUNE and it's nothing short of phenomenal. This stuff was formulated using expert technology in Russia expressly for biological exposure and nuclear radiation. In fact, they experimented on people (not mice) by giving them 12 capsules a day for a week prior to workers going into clean up Chernobyl. And yes, it worked. &lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;We started taking six capsules a day (two capsules, three times a day.) From what I read, it was better to stagger the doses for best results. Anyway, we did six capsules for about two weeks and then reduced it to 4 capsules a day. What was so amazing was that my husband's allergies went away and my energy improved greatly. While DEL-IMMUNE was not developed as an anti-fungal, I know of a woman who used it on her horse and his fungal infection vanished. Their website is www.del-immune.com. I am in no way associated with the company. I just thought I'd add it to the list here because it really worked for us and I hope it would work for others. &lt;/p&gt;

That's why probiotics are good in this case, but not 100% effective.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Complex therapy is needed.&lt;/p&gt;
