Question
I have lymes disease can you tell me what herbs will help with this.

Answer
Hello,

There are herbs that help with Lymes disease.  I had a client last year that contracted this disease.  I put him on the Chinese herbal formula called "Bupleurum and Cinnamon Twig Decoction"
also called "Chai Hu Gui Zhi Tang".  This formula can help, but must be taken long term.  There are no ill side effects, unlike the conventional treatment of this disease.
The herbs that are in this formula are:
Ramulus Cinnamomi Cassiae, Radix Scutellariae, Radix Ginseng, Radix Glycyrrhizae Uralensis, Rhizoma Pinelliae Ternatae, Radix Paeoniae, Radix Bupleuri, Rhizoma Zingiberis Officinalis Recens, and Fructus Zizyphi Jujubae.

It may be a common formula found at an Asian Market.  Otherwise, I'd recommend seeing an acupuncturist or a chinese herbalist.

Good Luck,
Candice
