"My Top 10" is a collection of my favorite supplements. These are products that I have used or do currently use as part of my "Better Health" program or have gotten very good reports from others.  I welcome any comments or suggestions you may have. I am always open to learning about new products that may be better than some of those that I currently consider to be at the top of my list. I expect this list will change over time, but do think these are good options.

The "My Top 10" page started as a list of 10 of my favorite products when I first started the page.  Later, I decided to not be so strict about 10 supplements but instead to list my favorite and not be tied to ten of them.   I have also attempted to break them down into categories such as Anti-microbials, Detoxification, and so on.

The products listed below are NOT presented in any specific priority. Always consult with your healthcare provider before starting anything listed on this page.

If you find better sources for these products or better prices available, please let me know.

General Support

• Intramax

Intramax is a product that I learned about from a visitor to my web site. I have since taken it myself and do think it provides a nice "insurance policy" in ensuring that basic supplement and mineral needs are met. I think it is one of the best combination products I have seen on the market.

• Beyond Any Multiple

Beyond Any Multiple is an amazing multi-vitamin and mineral product formulated by Dr. Garry Gordon, MD.  I have used it and energetically, it tests very well.  Many people have commented that they felt this product was very helpful.  It is also quite inexpensive relative to other products on the market.

• Researched Nutritionals Transfer Factor Multi-Immune

Researched Nutritionals offers Transfer Factor Multi-Immune which may be a good option for supporting immune function and addressing various microbial infestations.  I think that many of us focus so much on Lyme that we overlook all of the viruses that are also impacting our health.  Having a product like Transfer Factor Multi-Immune in a protocol may be a very wise way to support the immune system to address things that are not always considered.

• Minerals of Life

Minerals of Life may be one of the best multi-mineral products on the market.  I use it daily in a large bottle of water with my herbal treatments each day.

• Longevity Plus D3
  

Vitamin D is important for proper immune function.  Much debate is ongoing about whether or not people with Lyme disease should supplement or restrict vitamin D levels.  All of the practitioners that I have worked with fall on the side of supplementing vitamin D.  I supplement with a target range in blood testing of 60-80.

• Bio En'R-Gy C

Bio En'R-Gy C is an advanced form of vitamin C that allows for much higher dosing levels without the gastrointestinal side effects often observed at much lower doses.

• YES Parent Essential Oils

YES Parent Essential Oils are seed-based oils that are discussed in the book "The Hidden Story of Cancer ".  They may be a much better option for adults as opposed to fish-oil based essential fatty acid supplements.

• The Core
  

The Core is a foundational support product for those that test positive for KPU, a condition that Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt, MD, PhD finds in over 80% of people with chronic Lyme disease.  It contains zinc, manganese, B6, biotin, and other key substances that are deficient in those with the KPU condition.

Anti-Microbials

• NutraMedix Samento, Cumanda, Banderol, Enula, Mora, Lakato, Hottuynia

NutraMedix Samento, Cumanda, Banderol, Enula, Mora, Lakato, and Hottuynia are excellent herbal preparations that can be helpful to inhibit the growth and presence of various microbes. I personally have used Samento and have alternated between Cumanda and Banderol on regular cycles. Enula and Mora may be a good option for intracellular infections such as Babesia.  I have used them both.

If one is looking for options other than antibiotics, the "Cowden Protocol" which is based on NutraMedix products is a very well-planned treatment option that you may wish to consider in conjunction with your healthcare provider.

• Healthy Directions Bb-1, Bab-1, Bar-1, Immune Restore, ImmunoVira

Healthy Directions offers comprehensive herbal blends that may be helpful for Lyme disease.  Some of their products include Bb-1, Bar-1, Bab-1, Immune Restore, and ImmunoVira.  I personally have been on protocols incorporating these products and have seen very positive shifts.

• BioPure Quintessence

BioPure Quintessence is as close to the "Buhner protocol in a bottle" that I have seen.  This product is one that I have used along the way for dealing with Lyme and related infections.

Sources: BioPure

• Transfer Factor LymPlus (or Transfer Factor RMM)
  

Transfer Factor LymPlus is a transfer factor product that may be useful for people with Lyme and co-infections as well as some of the major viruses such as EBV, CMV, and HHV6. I started taking this at a dosage of 1 capsule at bedtime for the first month and then increased to 2 capsules each night at bedtime. Transfer Factor Multi-Immune is another great product from the same vendor.

• Raintree Cat's Claw

Raintree Cat's Claw is an herb mentioned in Stephen Buhner's book "Healing Lyme". It may be helpful for those of us with Lyme Disease and also he reports that it can help increase CD57 counts.  At one point, I was taking 16 capsules a day.

• Raintree MYCO
  

Raintree MYCO may be helpful for dealing with yeast, mold, and fungal issues.  It may also help to carry other treatments deeper into the cells.

General Detoxification

• Pekana Homeopathics (apo Hepat, Renelix, Itires)

Pekana Homeopathics (apo Hepat, Renelix, Itires) are some of the best homeopathic products I have used to support drainage and detoxification.  They are for the liver, kidneys, and lymphatic system respectively.  They may be a good base for supporting the body's ability to detoxify.  In my opinion, everyone with Lyme disease should talk with their doctor about adding these into their foundational program.

• New Sun Fiber Cleanse

New Sun Fiber Cleanse is a blend of Psyllium, Apple Fiber, Flax, Bentonite, and other ingredients to bind toxins and support effective toxin removal.  Note that psyllium contains a small amount of gluten and may not be tolerated by those with gluten sensitivities.

Pure Encapsulations Clear Detox is one of the better detoxification products I have found.  It is also from a company that I find to have high-quality, pure products.

Sources: Organic Pharmacy

• BioPure Chlorella

BioPure Chlorella has been a staple in my recovery.  I often chew 30-40 tablets about 30-45 minutes before a meal.   There are so many benefits to chlorella including that it may be helpful for detoxification of heavy metals.

• PectaSol-C
  

PectaSol-C is a fiber or binder that assists the body in the process of detoxification.

Heavy Metal Detoxification

Please see my Heavy Metals page for more detail on my experience with heavy metal detoxification.

• NutraMedix Zeolite and Zeolite HP

NutraMedix offers two zeolite products for detoxification of heavy metals and other toxins.  Zeolite is generally used first and later one moves to Zeolite HP.  Zeolite HP pulls a number of metals beyond what the Zeolite product does and it is best to follow the correct order of taking these products to minimize potential problems.

• Detoxamin

Detoxamin is an EDTA suppository that may be helpful for removal of heavy metals.  In my personal journey, I used Detoxamin suppositories earlier on and later switched to prescription DMSA suppositories.  I've now cycled back to the Detoxamin once again.  They are becoming more and more popular with a number of doctors as a tool in detoxifying heavy metals.

Boluoke is likely one of the strongest options for dealing with hypercoagulation available as a natural option.  Dr. Klinghardt once said that everyone with Lyme disease should consider (with your doctor) Boluoke as part of their treatment protocol.

Adrenal Support

• Natura Health Products Vital Adapt
  

Vital Adapt is a product I learned about in early 2010 at a Klinghardt conference.  It is created by Donnie Yance, a well-known herbalist.  It contains a number of adaptogens that may be helpful for those of us with chronic illnesses, high stress lives, burnt out adrenals, and more.  A product data sheet can be found here.

Rhodiola Rosea is a product that a practitioner suggested for adrenal support.  It was one of the only things I did to support my adrenals after we found that I had Stage 4 Adrenal exhaustion.
