    High Levels of Vitamin D may help Auto-Immune Disease (including Crohn's)??

    I agree with above. Since many of us have been on steroids, or will be at some time, D should be used with Vitamin K, good magnesium supplement such as mag citrate (not oxide). Also calcium if you avoid dairy products, again good calcium not from a mined mineral but egg shells or the like...

    Crohns and constant fatigue

    My fatigue was caused by a chronic mycoplasma infection. Doctors almost never test for it. If you have chronic mental and particularly physical fatique where you just run out of energy when you know you shouldn't, I would strongly suspect it. Mine was mycoplasma pneumonia so eventually...

    Onset of Ulcerative Colitis after Helicobacter pylori Eradication Therapy: A Case Report.

    I really do not know how they can ever come to any conclusion as far as the role of h-pylori using an antibiotic. Lots of other bacteria are reduced also using that treatment method. They are only measuring one. Killing one species leaves room for others to increase also. About all they...

    Suggestions on How to Reduce Inflammation without Meds

    I use Ginger, Turmeric, MSM, Krill Oil and Astaxanthin as anti inflammatory supplements. I also sleep on a grounding mat. I also take L-Glutamine which my guts respond very well to. Not an anti inflammatory but very soothing in that it does decrease my bowel movements in a similar manner as...

    What to do for flare?

    I have been treating my wife for Lyme, Bartonella and babesia. She only has some Lyme left now. She never had Crohns symptoms but I have repeatedly read about others that do. My primary method of alternative treatment (Rife frequency treatments) targets the specific pathogens involved in...

    Smoking....bad or good!?

    Quit now while you can. I started when I was 13. Was going to quit when I was 30. I did for a year and a half. Started again and now I am 54. Trust me, you don't want to be saying the same at my age, if you are still alive because of it. It's that simple. Life or death. Dan.

    Inability to Absorb B12 INCLUDING Injections

    I wonder if there is a resistance to the B-12 like I have to D-3? I took D-3 in the regular doses and it wouldn't bring it up substantially. My doctor said to just keep increasing the dose until it goes up. That's what I did and sure enough I did get it back to a normal level. It took between...

    Multivitamin

    I would use a whole food vitamin. I use Dr. Mecola's but there are other good brands out there. They are not cheap, but they are in a usable form so the body can absorb them. Dan

    Inability to Absorb B12 INCLUDING Injections

    The shots never brought me back to normal either. I started using sublingual B-12 and my last test was normal for the first time. These are the ones I take. http://www.swansonvitamins.com/swanson-ultra-supplemelts-sublingual-activated-b-12-60-tabs Dan

    Ketogenic Diet

    I am not expert on this diet, but it certainly comes up a lot when treating various diseases such as Lyme Disease, Cancer, etc. It makes pretty good sense to me after looking into it a bit more. I am not typically a fan of special diets but if I was to employ one, this would be the one I...

    Crohns disease, depression, and anxiety. Is it real or are we making it up?

    Depression and anxiety can be caused by various things. I had depression for over thirty years. One week fine next week or two in the hole. When I was diagnosed with Crohns, I did what I could to quell the inflammation. That was taking turmeric, ginger and Krill Oil. I didn't notice it...

    Missing b12 shot

    It's a small tablet you let dissolve in your mouth. It boosted my B12 to normal for the first time. The shots didn't do that. Dan

    Missing b12 shot

    Not much that you will notice. I started using sublingual B12 just because I don't have to enter the place where every nasty bacterium and virus resides on a monthly basis. It actually works better than the shots also. Dan

    Zika Virus - Weakened immune system

    Zika virus has been around forever. It is not a sure thing that it is the cause of birth defects. That remains to be seen. There are other possibilities. Dan

    Packaged lettuce leaves

    Two out of three times,that I have had E-Coli has likely been from lettuce. Both times from restaurants food. Any vegetable that grows near the surface of the soil can easily have this. Thats why apples that have fallen to the ground are not used in store bought apples. Most people do not...

    New Post by Dr. Chamberlin: Microbial Infection and Dysbiosis - All Part of the Same Process

    The sticky blood pretty much covers the reason for the slow wound healing. Having read quite a lot on biofilm involvement in Lyme disease caused me to thin out my blood using supplements. That and the tendency in my family to get blood clots in random places. Also being the slowest blood...

    How do you treat this?

    A cramp or just a random pain? Dan

    New Post by Dr. Chamberlin: Microbial Infection and Dysbiosis - All Part of the Same Process

    I don't disagree with the above, but there might be something to be learned over time by studying the microbiome. For instance, preventing the disease in the first place. I agree that killing the suspect bacterium directly is likely the only real hope of resolving symptoms and more importantly...
