My goals for this talk:

Show you some other factors that we have discovered with ART testing that can interfere with your recovery from Lyme
To discuss some non-antibiotic treatment options that can complement your care.

What is ART?

ART is “Autonomic Response Testing� developed by Dietrich Klinghardt, MD, PhD and Louisa Williams, MS, ND
It is a combination of U.S. based applied kinesiology and German biofeedback and ANS based treatment methods (i.e. neural therapy)
It is a technique that can be used to assess the health and/or dysfunction of the autonomic nervous system
It is a technique I use with every patient to help determine what the primary stressors are and what direction we should focus our treatments
Further instruction is available through seminars and videos at www.klinghardt.org

The 7 Factors of Illness
(these often “block� or stress the nervous system)

1. Toxins (ex. Heavy metals, neurotoxins, thioethers)
2. Nutritional deficiencies
3. Structural problems (herniations, occlusal, etc)
4. Energetic disturbances (scars, ganglia, acupuncture meridians…)
5. Food intolerances
6. Geopathic/Electromagnetic stress
7. Unresolved psycho-emotional or spiritual conflicts or traumas
- Developed by Dietrich Klinghardt, MD, PhD

ART testing- what to look for

Check all organs to look for areas of stress (often on a first visit it will be the tonsils, liver and sinuses)

Look for any scars (especially traumatic scars)

Viruses (esp HHV6, HSV2, EBV, CMV)

Parasites (ascaris, tapeworm, giardia, liver flukes)

Lyme and common co-infections (often this will only show when testing against a weak arm since they “block� regulation)

Heavy metals

Molds/fungus- often a stress to the lymph system

Food testing

For all infection testing, make sure to check for resonance in different areas of the body once blocked regulation is ruled out

Check for hormone imbalance or nutritional deficiencies

Why Not Just Use Lab Testing?

As you know there are several false negative (poor sensitivity) results for Lyme, co-infections, heavy metals and also for most parasites

Labs are important, but they don’t tell the whole story

Using energetic testing in addition to lab tests helps to fill in the gaps and provide a more tailored treatment plan for that particular patient at that specific time

Other diagnostic tools to look that can be useful to guide treatments:

Applied Kinesiology
Electrodermal testing (EAV)
Asyra (the newest and most advanced computerized technology that looks at underlying causes of illness, rather than just acute stressors)
Chinese pulse diagnosis/ Iridology
Ondamed
Clinical observation
Arm length reflex
Pendulum
Leg length testing
Dr. Omura’s O-Ring testing
Many others….

Keeping the system in balance

Body load

Toxic Burden

People who become symptomatic with Lyme disease have a high toxic load, such as:

Lyme neurotoxins and co-infections (Borrelia, Bartonella, Babesia, Mycoplasma, Ehrlichia, Rickettsia, Chlamydia)

Heavy metals

emotional burden

Toxic scars (especially if developed just before the onset of illness, if it is a scar that goes straight across the abdomen or if it is near the area of most symptoms)

Pthalates or other environmental toxins

High microbial load (molds, parasites, viruses)

Food allergies, increased intestinal permeability and decreased nutrient absorption

This is why it often takes more than just a targeted Lyme medication to get well

Simple changes to help reduce body burden

Limit chemicals used at home- hairsprays, perfumes, candles, cleaners… (good cleaning option is vinegar and castille soap)

Diet- Stop the junk food, caffeine and alcohol

Diet- If not doing lab testing at least try to avoid major food allergens like gluten and dairy and choose foods containing fewer artificial ingredients and preservatives - Gluten and cow dairy increase the mucoid layer in the intestines and contribute to inflammation and poor nutrient absorption (A food allergy elimination diet like the LID diet Dr. Singleton suggests is best)

No fluoride in the toothpaste (this can disrupt hormones)- try using xylitol or herbs to keep plaque formation down. Also start using a water pik and Sonicare toothbrush

Stop smoking

Use more natural body care products

Don’t cook in plastic or put in the dishwasher (plastics can chelate Mg & Zn)

Reducing body burden…

Choose organic meats and dairy (i.e. chicken is full of arsenic)

Use a good quality air filter in your bedroom (IQ Air or Nikken are great)

Clean carpets and bedding regularly (If you have had mold issues, consider replacing carpets altogether)

Find a biological dentist

Check for geopathically disturbed sleeping location- cordless phones, cell phone towers, electrical smog, computers, etc

Be cautious about vaccines (thimerosol)

Drink plenty of water and consider adding electrolytes

Keep the bowels moving

Get enough sleep

Light exercise or at least some stretching to keep the lymph and circulation flowing (Emphasis on full body strengthening and flexibility vs aerobic)

Treating Scars

Neural therapy (www.klinghardt.org)- aka biopuncture
EFT/MFT
Sesame oil rubbed on them daily for 1 month
King Bio Scar Cure spray
Pulsed Laser (ideally with a homeopathic remedy)
3 day protocol:
- make a paste with a healing clay (NatuRx, Premier Research) and water, cilantro, oil, Cicatrix or whatever tests appropriately
- Apply to the scar and allow to dry
- Wash off well
- Repeat 3 times daily for 3 days
Example- Woman with multiple back scars and rapid pulse and speech that immediately went back to normal upon injection

Lab testing essentials

Thyroid panel- TSH, fT3, fT4 and antibodies

Chem panel and CBC (WBC’s less than 4.5 strongly indicate to test for Borrelia)

Genetic testing of detox pathways to identify glutathione or methylation defects, among others

Hair metal analysis (good 1st step since not requiring provocation)

Porphyrin testing

Herpes, EBV and CMV viral panels

Complete stool panel (CDSA)

Vit D levels (25 hydroxy and 1,25 hydroxy)

Coagulation studies or fibrinogen

Hormones/Adrenals

Food allergy testing (either by blood, ART or electrodermal testing)

ANA

CRP and ESR

CD57

Western Blot for Borrelia (Lyme) using Igenex or MDL…Since it is looking for an antibody response, it is ideal to first treat with herbs for at least 6 weeks before testing if the condition is chronic
Fry’s Lab and Central Florida Research Lab also offer useful Lyme labs

Checking for co-infections (Igenex or Fry’s)

Urinalysis for metals and minerals, following provocation (DMPS, DMSA or EDTA)

Physical Exam

Feel for swollen lymph nodes
Look for allergic shiners (thyroid, food allergies)
Look for discoloration around the mouth (often a sign of parasites)
Feel skin texture, especially on the back of the arms (vit A, EFA’s)
Look where the patient carries their weight
Pupil dilation or brown spots in the iris
Rashes or streaks
Sock lines
Skin color (gray, yellow)

Non-prescription Lyme treatments

To reduce the virulence of co-infections, it has been my preference to start treatments with more broad spectrum herbs, then switch to prescription antibiotics if needed

Samento (work up to 30 drops daily or more in water or juice with electrolytes) If tinctures are not tolerated I like Raintree Nutritionals Cat’s Claw

Noni (up to 6 dropperfuls daily, more effective for Babesia)

Researched Nutritionals Transfer Factor LymPlus- 1-4 daily

Cumanda (up to 30 drops daily or more)- this has proven great for us with chronic arthritis related to Lyme

Banderol (for viruses and Lyme co-infections also)- up to 30 drops daily or more

PhytoLymex by Nutriwest- up to 3 tsp daily

Andrographis paniculata- protective against neurodegeneration and excreted rapidly via the kidneys- tinctures taste horrible, but work well. The pill versions are tolerated better and in my experience have lasting effectiveness, even against Bartonella.

Polygonum cuspidatum (aka Japanese Knotweed)- Increases brain microcirculation and decreases autoimmunity- especially useful when there are some neuropathies

Stephania Root tincture- great for associated viral issues

Artemesinin- pulsed for Babesia and parasites

Rizol oils (ozonated essential oils)- great for stubborn parasites and skin ailments and difficult to treat infections- these can be used orally, topically or in a neti pot

All tinctures seem to work better when taken in water with electrolytes and Phospholipid Exchange to enhance absorption

Colloidal Silver- dosage varies with the product

SpiroNil/Teasel Root (work up to 3 Tablespoons daily)

KMT technology programs 1 and 2 (BioTools, www.klinghardt.org)

Coriolus

Clinical signs of parasites

Rashes on the chest or neck
Discoloration around the mouth
Males often have risky behaviors

Treating Parasites (the most difficult to lab test, but the first thing to treat)

BioPure organic freeze dried garlic

Artemisinin pulsed in high doses 3 days on every 2-3 weeks

Vermox/Mebendazole (100mg BID * 3days, then repeat after 3 weeks)

Biltricide (600mg TID for one day then repeat in 2-3 weeks)

Tinidazole for giardia/amoebas (500mg BID for 10 days, usually following a different parasite treatment)

Albendazole (28 day course)- rarely needed in kids and typically only for severe neurological symptoms that have not resolved with other treatments

Alinia (dose varies)- 20 day protocol is great for MS and Babesia

Herbal Cleanses (Dr. Natura Colonix, Botanifuge…)

Salt/C

It seems to be very effective to follow prescription parasite medications with homeopathic support or the parasite C.D. for at least another month
