Recovery from Lyme
While I rarely
have any symptoms of Lyme disease, I do have mild
symptoms occasionally. The Lyme is still there.
We've learned to live together, and I continue
to explore natural ways to more completely solve
the problem. This requires some explanation.
I've often
seen individuals recover from a chronic disease
only to have the problem recur within a few months
or years. Related to this is the fact that we
all have health problems that go back to our younger
years, which tend to come back periodically. It
appears that with concerted effort in the areas
of diet and lifestyle, chronic issues can usually
be controlled to one degree or another, but they
continue to lurk beneath the surface, only to
emerge again when one lets one's guard down, so
to speak.
I believe that
the key to healing more completely, at a deeper
level, and eliminating the recurrence of chronic
problems, is the same as the key to establishing
a path of recovery initially in dealing with a
chronic disease. And that is to be very thorough
in one's approach to diet. Special food extracts,
supplemental nutrients, and natural medicines
should be used to complement the diet. But the
details of the diet and the supplements taken
should be highly individualized according to one's
tastes, medical history, resources and health
goals.
