supplements and detox support

Hello all: It is November 2016 and I just keep getting better! I am still rifing each week, but no longer herx much at all. I think I will increase my time to 4 hours to see if I can get a reaction. I have zero symptoms and I'm happy to report that I'm back to a 100% healthy and normal life, without restrictions or modifications. As always, I try to share the information that I give to individuals so that all may benefit. Here is what I wrote to someone today about supplementation. My thoughts and prayers are with all those who are suffering with Lyme and Co-infections. Please be well and stay on the path to wellness! (Please excuse the narrative format of the lists. I cannot figure out how to make a bulleted list on Blogger.)

DAILY SUPPLEMENTS (once a day unless otherwise indicated): multi-mineral/multi-vitamin (I like Dr. Tobias Vitality brand), Vitamin C gummies (huge bottle)- chew on several 3 times a day, chlorella- only an organic brand!!! (I like Foodtopia brand)- 3 pills, work up to 5 pills three times a day, L-Glutamine (take more often than once for headaches, as they arise), Alpha Lipoic Acid- liver support, NKCell Activator by Life Extension- to increase your killer cell count (a sub set of white blood cells), Beta Glucan (immune system support), CoQ10 (heart function support), flaxseed oil or organic Omega 3 (non organic will have mercury contamination), Curcumin (I like bio-enteric Simply Pure Natual Physician brand) to thin blood. Lyme makes our blood thick as a survival mechanism, Magnesium Oil- gets sprayed many times a day (if you get itchy- you are depleted! You won't itch if you have enough that day), JCROW Lugol's idodine 2% (2 drops in water daily), liquid glutathione (5 drops in the water daily) I like LIPCEUTICAL brand, probiotics to reflourish your gut with good bacteria, Wobenzyms (3, 3 times a day, taken on empty stomach to dissolve biofilms).

DETOX SUPPLIES (to use to help clear the resulting die off induced herxes): magnesium salt for detox baths. Each bath needs 2-5 lbs of salt. Luckily this is cheap., hydrogen peroxide- Each bath needs a half cup of this., fresh lemons- you drink pure water with fresh lemon juice all day long, charcoal tabs- you take these to absorb the toxins faster- take on empty stomach- not daily, but as needed, "oxy" pills to poop- Lyme makes us constipated and charcoal does too. We MUST poop 1-2 times a day or the die off will sit in the colon, making you feel sicker!, organic coffee enemas-Either pay for monthly colonics or do weekly enemas yourself. The colon is totally messed up from Lyme and cannot function properly and it is overloaded with extra toxins which reabsorbed if they don't flush out!!, a bouncy ball to bounce on daily- to move lymph system. You must walk daily too to get it to flush out from head to toe.

Of course the most important thing to buy is a decent machine. The machine is your gun in this war. The supplements support your body and the detox supplies help your body to clear the dead debris and neurotoxins that flood your system from killing the pathogens each week.

Rife Therapy Approaches

Hello! Today's I am writing about what I know about rife approaches. This topic has come up in a couple conversations and I have explained it, but I think that writing it may be more clear than actually explaining it. This blog is dedicated to my friend in Colorado, in particular, as he is going back and forth between different rife approaches, not sure which one to commit to. This is not uncommon as there are many different ways to go about rife therapy and it can all be confusing and there is so little actual research published on the topic. That said, I do think it is important to commit to an approach before switching to another (at least for an extended amount of time) in order to see if it is working for you.

Before we can discuss approaches, we must first discuss machines, as the rife machine one owns can actually limit which approach is selected. There are several types of rife machines and many types of models, all which have different power levels and capabilities. I have owned 2 so far- first the Rife Digital Bioresonance (approx. $500) and then I upgraded to the GB4000 and SR4 amp (approx. $2000). The first machine only let me run one frequency at a time and its power level was under 1.5 watts. The second allows me to run up to 8 frequencies at once and its power level is 15 watts. It is my belief that in order to kill stealth infections such as Lyme, Babesia, Bartonella, Herpes, EBV, Mycoplasma, and Chlamydia Pnemonia you need a lot of power- at least 10 amps. My little machine was not able to eradicate the infections, although I do think that it did kill some of the less virulent strains of some of the infections, as evidenced by my herxing and minor improvement using it. A GB 4000 plus amp is powerful enough and so is the GB with MOPA as well as a Doug Coil Machine. There are a few others on the market that are also powerful enough, in my opinion, to eradicate stealth infections, if used properly and for long enough.

Now let's go over the basic variables. There are 4 variables at play when it comes to rifing. 1) power used, 2) length of time, 3) which frequencies are run, and 4) how many frequencies are used in any particular run. Some rife machines, like the first one I owned, did not have an adjustment for power level. So that variable could not be changed when running. It was always at the max power of just under 1.5 watts. Also, it only allowed one frequency to be run at a time so that variable could not be changed. The machine, however, would allow a user to adjust the amount of time that each frequency was run; the default was 5 minute but the time could be increased and decreased (to whatever the maximum number of minutes was). So I would input the most popular Lyme CALF frequencies and run them each for 1 minute each, then 2 minutes each the next time, then 3 minutes each, etc. I slowly built up the time as that was one of the only variables I had to work with while using that rife machine. I definitely herxed sometimes, and I believe it was because I was so incredibly sick that my machine was destroying the weakest strains and spirochetes. It definitely didn't touch the ones protected in biofilm, nor did it kill the more virulent bugs.

Many people who are writing about rifing on popular rife forums appear to be using the aforementioned approach. They are running frequencies one at a time, starting with 1-2 minutes, and then building up time used with each frequency. They may or may not be increasing the power level, depending on their rife unit and what it can and can't do, but they are working with only one frequency at a time. There is one advantage and several disadvantages to this approach, as I see it. The advantage is that it is better to run one frequency at a time with the many less powerful machines on the market today because when you run more than one (on the GB, for example) it dilutes the power. If you run the maximum 8 frequencies (on the GB), it cuts the power to each, making each frequency a little less powerful. The less powerful machines need to have all their power directed to that one frequency in order to have any killing effect, and even then, the killing effect is still not really powerful enough for destroying the most virulent bugs, even if you change another variable: increasing the time.

So what are the disadvantages beyond lack of power? One is the act of running a limited number of frequencies each session. By running only one frequency at a time (either by necessity because of the machine's limits or by choice), you are limiting how many bugs you kill with each session. Even if you run 8 different frequencies for 5 minutes each, you are only hitting the bugs that can be hit with those particular 8 frequencies. When a person is very ill with Lyme and co-infections (and other bacteria, parasites, and viruses) it is critical to lower the body's overall pathogen load as quickly as possible. If not then you risk the 'switch getting turned on.' That is an expression I got from my coach who got it from a naturopathic doctor. This doctor must have seen what I have seen: when a person is so overloaded with bugs, the disease runs its course and eventually they are diagnosed with MS, Parkinson's, dementia, or some other diagnosis which is often a sign that the person is so far gone that they cannot reverse the disease process, no matter what kind of rife machine they own and no matter how dedicated they are to treatment. Rife treatment and subsequent recovery is a race- not a sprint but a marathon- and in the beginning, if a person is very sick (which for definition purposes define as being unable to work) then they need to get their bug load down FAST and out pace the degree to which each pathogen can reproduce. You must kill them before they increase their numbers, taking over more body systems. When you own a GB (or other machine that is at least 10 watts of power) and you run multiple frequencies at once, you are killing more bugs with each run session. It is fine that the power is divided by the number of frequencies because the need to reduce the bug load outweighs the need to kill the most virulent bugs. With time, and with increasing the power and time, you can eventually get the more virulent bugs. Think of the flyswatter analogy I used in a previous post. In the beginning, it is important to kill more bugs, so it is better to use a flyswatter to kill a mound of ants (versus a more powerful hammer) because of its surface area. Sure, you will stun some of the bugs but you will also kill more than you would kill with a blow of the hammer!

In the beginning of therapy, you must run as many frequencies as possible as it will cast a wider net. This is especially true if you are infected with more than just Lyme- and you probably are! Now for another limit of running one frequency at a time. There is no exact science behind the CALF list. There is really very little money going into rife research and much of Royal Rife's research was destroyed. This means that, unfortunately, there is no guarantee that say frequency 432 will kill your particular strain of Lyme, EVEN IF YOU RUN IT FOR 2 HOURS at 200 amps of power!!! There are many strains of Lyme, many frequencies that people report work, and for each strain, there are bugs that morph and change their DNA in order to survive the frequency, rendering it ineffective. Thus, I cherish the beauty behind the GB4000 and its sweep function! If I run 432, for example, for 10 minutes on a certain power level, I will always sweep it (running 3-5 below and 3-5 frequencies above) in order to kill the mutants. For example, following running 432 for 10 minutes, I would sweep from 427 to 437 for at least 10 minutes at the same power level. Why am I admitting that I run individual frequencies? It is because I have worked up to it and I am over 3 years into treatment and my bug load is way way down, no longer in 'the danger zone' so I am going after the most virulent bugs. In order to do so, and because my machine is at full power (no ability to change the power variable any more) I make sure all the power goes to each frequency so it is not diluted. I can run 6 frequencies with each custom channel and so my sessions tend to run 30 minutes (each a G6) and then I channel sweep them for another 30 minutes and then run another custom channel, and so on. If I run for 2 hours, I am still hitting only 12 frequencies, but with lots of power, and then I am hitting the frequencies just above and below them. This is necessary to give me a herx this late in treatment. In the beginning, I ran 8 frequencies at a time, up to 50+ in order to cast a wider net because I did not require that much power to get a 'hit' (a herx). Lower power levels always made me herx. When they no longer did, I adjusted a variable (only one at a time)- adding more power, or adding more time.

I hope this written explanation is clear and that it makes sense. As always, these views are expressly my opinions, and they are based on my experience and the experience of others I know. You are free to disagree with them- but as I write in my book- 'proof is in the pudding'. Some people using the single frequency rife approach may, in fact, get relief, but are they 100% better now (i.e. no lifestyle 'adjustments' or 'modifications' needed and no relapses)? Are the people who claim to be better and who have used a weaker machine truly free of Lyme and all other stealth infections? Do they require maintenance sessions and herbals or antibiotics from time to time? How well do you really know the people posting on forums and their true picture of health? I guess you don't really know me for that matter, but my claims stand; I am working full time. I go out when I like for as late as I like. I have hobbies including running. I can drink if I want without symptoms. I can eat what I want without symptoms. I have not relapsed. I do not need to lead a 'stress free' lifestyle in order to stay well- although I try to. Good luck and God bless!

Pathogenic Synergy

Hello! Today I am writing about the synergistic nature of the Lyme bacteria. The belief that Lyme lives in biofilm communities with other opportunistic bacteria, parasites, and viruses is a documented fact and these communities can even be seen under a very powerful microscope. I speak with many people who have chronic Lyme, and I am finding that almost everyone also has high titers and/or positive blood results for other infections as well. Thus, I think that one's pathogenic load is an important feature of chronic illness. Some people may be able to function with Lyme and never even know they are infected while others are sent to their knees. How come? It is because of the unique combination of bugs that one has and the other does not. When I was going from doctor to doctor, trying to figure out what I was dealing with, I asked one infectious disease doctor for a battery of tests. This turned out to be a great idea because I now rife for many of these bugs, and I think it has contributed to my recovery. These pathogens live together in synergistic harmony with Lyme in biofilm communities all over the body. The biofilm is the glue, the stronghold, and it collects heavy metals to make it strong and impenetrable. Everyone with Lyme has heavy metal overload, by the way. It is important to take nightly biofilm busters, enzymes, on an empty stomach to break down the biofilms. My favorite is Wobenzym...3 pills per night. It is equally important to take supplements to bind and usher the heavy metals out. I take chlorella (organic) tablets each morning as well as MSM and amino acids as these improve the body's ability to detox heavy metals. Back to co-infections. So, here is the list of tests that I asked for when I saw that doctor: -Herpes -EBV -CMV -Parovirus B19 -Mycoplasma pneumonia -Chylamidia pneumonia -HPV -toxoplasmosis. I made sure I got a copy of the blood test results. Not surprisingly, I had high IGg titers for many of the culprits. The stupid infectious disease doctor explained this as past infection, but I think he (and his counterparts) are wrong in the case of those suffering from chronic disease. I think high titers means the body is still battling. My EBV test also came back positive for early antigen. My LLMD at the time interpreted this as active EBV and put me on potent medicine for that. It didn't work. Why not? Although he was correct I was battling EBV, he didn't realize that it was only one of many pathogens that were taking over my bodily systems. You cannot just battle one- You are at war with all of them! Thankfully, rife can kill all of these offenders. Some are harder to kill than others and take longer...EBV, Chl. pneum, herpes, among others. And when you rife for them, you will experience an increase of their symptoms, so be advised that if you get more symptomatic it is working!!!!! Hang in there and rife for them week after week and you will eventually win the war! Don't forget to always include frequencies for Lyme, Bart, Babs, parasites as those need to get hit constantly, in order to outpace their ability to reproduce. If you can work up to rifing for 2+ hours, then you have the ability to run many many frequencies each week. Build your way up, minute by minute. Also- don't forget to sweep (if you are a year or more into treatment). If you have a newer GB or upgraded your old one, you can now sweep as low as 2! I enter in 6 so it hits 3 frequencies above and 3 below each of the main frequencies. It is important to sweep to hit the bugs that have morphed a little bit in order to survive the main frequency. They are in the survival game as are we, their hosts. The key to rifing is stick-with-it-ness. Endurance and perseverance is critical. That is because it is SOOO hard to stick to this as you think you are getting worse with each herx AND because it takes so long to get fuller better. But if you keep track of your progress with a diary, you will note improvements over time. In fact, signs of improvement is often what is an increase in your activity. Others will often see improvements before you do. This takes time; Stick with it and hit the bugs over and over and over. Increase the time of your runs and the power level very slowly. Sweep everything. Use the correct frequencies for your pathogens and rife for the bugs, not the 'ailments.'. I love Chapter 5 of Nenah Sylver's book for frequencies. Actually, the entire book is amazing. Take your biofilm busters and your metal detoxers. Eat clean. Drink plenty of clean water. Do light excercise to move your lymph and increase your Killer Cell count. You got this thing!

Hello Friends, I hope you are having a good day today. Having Lyme is a roller coaster ride of ups and downs and a good day is surely a blessing, indeed! As far as an update goes, I am doing very well and still improving. In fact, I don't really think I ever knew what good health was before rife therapy. Before I crashed with Lyme, I lived with minor fatigue and gastro-intestinal 'sensitivity.' I guess one thinks it is normal if they know no other 'normal'. I grew up in a tick infested part of the Northeast, with blueberry patches in our backyard and I had multiple tick exposures as a kid. I'm quite sure that I was infected on some level and that when I was bit as an adult, it just sent my bacterial count into overload, thus resulting in what seemed like an overnight crash. Enough about me. I want to address some technical aspects of rifing. This advice is purely my own, based on my experience and the experience of others I have seen recover. If you disagree, that is your right and I will not be defending my position with anyone as my time is better spent on other things (i.e I wont' answer your email, if you are so inclined to argue in writng). I rest on the laurels of having it work for me (and countless others who have also recovered full health). I understand that different people have different methods of rifing and I don't suggest that their methods won't work to reduce one's overall bacterial load. However, I just think that along with everything else in life, there are some approaches that are simply more efficient and more effective- in this case more effective in completely eradicating Lyme disease and co-infections....and this is a tall order, indeed! #1. Running more frequencies less often (20-60 frequencies every 5-7 days) is a far superior approach than running fewer frequencies more often (1-19 every 1-3 days). Why? Beating Lyme is a race against time. The goal is to reduce one's bacterial load as fast as possible, especially in the beginning. This is because Lyme multiplies (every 3-4 weeks) and so do the co-infections (some very often). One needs to get ahead of the disease process before it is too late. Too late means getting an MS or Parkison's diagnosis...or being so debilitated that a full recovery is near impossible. By running many numbers, you can hit more bugs and reduce your overall bug count faster. It is imperative to cast a very wide net and kill as many bugs as possible in order to bring down your bug load and get ahead of this thing. Unfortunately, rifing is not an exact science (due to lack of acceptance in the medical community and lack of funding for research) so you can't be assured that frequency 432 (for example) will kill all the Lyme; it won't! There are many strains and many frequencies for Lyme that you must run. The goal is to hit it from all angles...that is why it takes so long to [fully] recover using rife therapy. #2. Running more frequencies on lower power (at least 2pm on the GB dial, with amp on) is far better than running fewer on greater power (MOPA power levels or highest levels on amp). Why? Think of an ant mound. Let's say your goal is to kill the ants (and you lack chemical power), and all you can choose from is a hammer or a fly swatter, what would you choose? The hammer is more powerful and will assure that everything underneath its blow gets killed. However, a flyswatter has greater surface area so although some ants will just get stunned by the blow, you actually will kill more ants because more are hit with it! You must work your way up to higher power levels and this is solely because you need to kill more bugs, especially at first! So you ask, "Why not run 60+ frequencies at very high power?" Well- you will, in time...but you must work your way up to this..in months and perhaps years. You must aim to have a productive herx, yet AVOID ending up in the ER with a killer herx from too much power and too much time!!! I hope this information is helpful to you. My intention is to share information for the benefit of the greater good. I will post more tips in the future, as questions and conversations come up with my people. Be well! -RD

Birthday Parties and Outdoor Fairs

Hi everyone! I hope that you are having a good day and if you have Lyme, I hope you are not experiencing too many symptoms. It can be a very lonely disease. I remember how isolated I felt. I couldn't really tell too many people because they just didn't understand and I didn't want to be judged. Plus, the typical reaction was like, "but you look so good", which just ended up upsetting me because it sounded like they didn't believe how much pain I was in. Anyway, yesterday was a whirl-wind of a day and I wanted to blog about it because I just can't believe I did it all with energy to spare. It is a testament to how much better I am and how well the rife therapy worked. My daughter had her birthday party at the roller rink with 10 other girls. I was the chaperone and I was able to skate with them for 2 hours, cut the cake, make the party bags, and keep up with the whole gang. When it was over, my family went to the local fair where we watched the kids go on rides and walked around and around for hours, until dark. Yes, it was a tiring day, but symptom free and I had plenty of energy to keep up. When I am not rifing, I am symptom free now. I only herx after some runs on the machine, and the herxing is minimal- headache, lymph node enlargment, sore throat, tired. Totally manageable. I have to run the frequencies for hours to get a hit and only some numbers seem to work. I am getting my GB4000 upgraded next week- to make it more powerful- in hopes of chasing down the last of the more resilient bugs. Please pray for me that I am able to get some herx from doing this. I want to kill every last one so there is nothin left to multiply. Be well. Happy Memorial Day!

Year 3 and still improving!

Hello readers, Thank you for following my blog. To be honest, I have not checked it in months...probably because now that I feel so good, I am falling back into my daily living patterns. It seems like a bad dream, but I won't ever forget how sick I was. I am working, running, not tired at all anymore and can live a normal life. It is nothing short of a miracle. The only lasting thing for me is Post Traumatic Stress that pops up when I go to see a doctor. I get anxious and feel scared. I can't go alone. It is because it was torment to go through the medical system- all of it failed me. Only the help of a regular person helped me- saved my life, in fact. When December rolls around, it will have been three years of rifing. I remember thinking how long it seemed when my coach told me 3-5 years to get well. It flew by and it was worth it. There really is no fast way to recover from Lyme and Co-infections. Recently I went to an annual eye exam. I guess I hadn't been in a while because the doctor asked if I was still on Plaquenil. That was a Lyme drug I stayed on for about 2 months at my sickest. One side effect is retinal detachment. I told him no and we got to talking. When I told him I got better using a rife machine, he said, "Oh good- now I know what to do if I get Lyme." I replied, "No!!! Don't ever get Lyme, it is impossible to get better. The machine is only 50% of it- getting the right help from an experienced rifer is the other 50%. Be protective. Don't go into the woods, wear tick spray, no unprotected sex!! You don't want this disease!!!" Right now, I am at the stage where I no longer run ANY of the runs in the GB book. They are too weak for me; I don't herx at all so I'm not killing much. Instead, I input individual frequencies for 5 minutes each- 10 at a time and then I channel sweep them all (10 range, which is the smallest). The total run time is 50 minutes plus 50 minutes. I seem to herx when I run Lyme frequencies, some HPV frequencies, EBV frequencies, and some parasite frequencies. I no longer herx a lot though. Just a minor headache, next pain, grumpiness, and tiredness for a day or so...and sometimes a bit of intestinal or liver discomfort. It is nothing I have to stay home for...I can still work through it. This is a sharp contrast to the herxes I felt the whole first year. Those were BAD!!!!! I swear that the killing of Lyme is as painful as having the disease. Our bodies are not meant to detox this much shit. It is imperative to drink and eat super clean during the first year as your body CANNOT handle extra stress. No meds, no alcohol- your liver and kidneys are already going through the ringer getting rid of debris and neurotoxins. By year two I was able to have a glass of wine once in a while and eat pizza again. (I was gluten intolerant with Lyme Disease). However, I still continue to eat super clean as I want my body in top shape to clean out the remainder of the bacteria. I am very thankful to God and to my family for helping me through this roller coaster of a ride. I have promised to help others, when I can and when they want help, in return for my second chance. If you need guidance, feel free to contact me. Stay positive. Life is worth living! RD
