Have you or has someone you know been diagnosed with Lyme Disease? Transmitted by ticks and often contracted due to weakened immunity, this condition seems to be on the rise. Unfortunately, many doctors are unfamiliar with natural protocols that strengthen the body and promote long-term healing.
In this episode of Wise Traditions, Robin joins us to talk about her road to recovery after struggling with Lyme’s for over a decade. When conventional medications began to take a toll on her health, Robin began to explore alternative treatment options. She learned that nutrition is a key piece of the puzzle, as it lays the foundation for improved immune function. In addition to consuming nutrient-dense foods, she suggests that Lyme’s sufferers avoid antibiotics, cleanse from parasites, and address heavy metal toxicity.
Today Robin considers herself 90% cured of Lyme Disease. Although she still occasionally feels symptoms, she is fully functioning (unlike her condition during her teens and early twenties). We can all benefit from hearing her story and her recommendations for treating chronic illness naturally.

- How antibiotics wreak havoc on the body and why they cannot address Lyme Disease adequately

I understand why antibiotics wouldn’t be good for chronic Lyme, but what about acute Lyme? I was just diagnosed due to the bulls eye and joint pain.
