Message: [QUOTE="ClifSpliffy, post: 3249996, member: 9260"] in and of itself, idk. but, as a lifestyle path, most definitely. compared to even just 50 years ago, we live a 'shut-in' lifestyle, which I would better describe as a 'shut-out' reality. as in, shutting out the natural world. having followed the lyme world for a great while as a component of my outdoors reality, I am familiar with those stories about the island, yale, the vaccine and such, and overall I have no strong opinion about those. I have often heard the name of a dr. katz in the new haven area as some kind of pioneer, but I don't know him as I have no reason to. bringing kids to the outdoors for a long time, I needed a template to approach the issue. back then, the cdc issued some basics which I still adhere to: a) infected ticks were like 1/10,000 and b) that 1/10000 needs 72 hours on the body. a common course of abx is no problem as a relatively benign therapy, but when I heard on npr the other day some doc talking about a 6 month run, it gave me pause. we've overused abx in an epic way for decades, and I believe the payback is underway. someone here mentioned radio frequency therapy. while I don't know specifically its effectiveness, I wouldn't be quick to dismiss it as the em spectrum is steadily being better understood, notwithstanding tesla's pioneering work long ago, ie. 'frequency and resonance.' case in point-today, 'shockwave lithotripsy' is a standard therapy to blast kidney stones. yesterday? notsomuch. lyme? I have no strong opinion, but I firmly believe we divorce from the natural world at our peril. building antibodies, stronger immune systems and all that. yogurt is magic. heck, the doctors blew it bigtime in their overzealous approach to the appendix by ripping out way too many, as further study demonstrated that it's where the system balancing bacteria are stored when the digestive system is under attack. our bodies have many known and unknown defenders residing inside, and some could use a little recharging from the natural world.
