Alea Ishikawa said:Are you taking either Japanese knotweed OR Resveratrol 200 for a total dose of 500mg? I think these are the same substance (Polygonum cuspidatum) and I'd hate for you to overdose!
Japanese knotweed (polygonum cuspidatum found in Resveratrol-200) is different from astragalus (astragalus membranaceus). I just wanted to make sure you were not using Japanese knotweed plus the Japanese knotweed in the Resveratrol-200 and overdosing, which could be making your spleen issue worse.I hate the astralagus (Polygonum cuspidatum) it makes me crash hard!
Buhner says to avoid astragalus, as it strengthens the part of the immune system that's over-active already from chronic Lyme. He recommends it for the early stages, but for chronic sufferers, it can be a bad idea. If you are feeling worse on it, he says discontinue it.
It's an additional way to attack Lyme. I would focus on getting your spleen inflammation fixed, before trying anything that would aggravate it more.-I have not tried the biofilm buster is it worth it?
