| bee sting therapy for lyme disease: Recovery from Lyme Disease Daniel A. Kinderlehrer, 2021-03-16 From the foreword by world-leading Lyme expert Joseph J. Burrascano, Jr., MD: A detailed and thoughtful road map is sorely needed. And it is in this context that I am so pleased that we have this book by Dr. Kinderlehrer. I wish I’d had a book like this back in the day to guide me! It covers just about everything—the infections, diagnostic tests, treatments, and yes, the all-important terrain. It gives the reader an in-depth, but easily understandable, guide through the many subtleties of tick-borne illnesses. I am impressed with the knowledge presented and grateful for this information, which has helped so many people recover from chronic illness. To anyone touched by tick-borne diseases, be they a patient, a caregiver, loved one, or health practitioner, this book is a must-read. It will serve as a continuing reference as it gets read and reread to assimilate all it has to offer. I congratulate Dr. Kinderlehrer and thank him for this most impressive work. The ultimate guide to recognizing, coping with, and overcoming chronic infection. Lyme Disease is a substantial problem. While the CDC reported 427,000 new cases in 2017 based on surveillance criteria, actual numbers based on clinical diagnosis put that number at over one million. It is now well accepted that 10 to 20 percent of these cases go on to become a chronic illness, and these numbers don't even include those people who became chronically ill without ever witnessing a tick attachment or a bulls-eye rash. In other words, hundreds of thousands of people develop a chronic illness every year. This is why Dr. Dan Kinderlehrer’s book is so important and timely and has the potential to help millions who are victims of this epidemic. His integrative approach offers the most up-to-date and comprehensive plan available for treating and beating this disease. It will discuss brand new treatments such as disulfiram, which is being hailed as a major breakthrough, as well as the use of cannabis to treat pain and anxiety, among other developments in the field. With the staggering growth we are seeing in numbers of people afflicted, this book becomes more important every day. Kinderhlehrer is in a unique position to write this book. After completing a residency in Internal Medicine in 1979, he opened one of the first practices in the US in what was then called Holistic Medicine. After becoming an expert in nutrition and environmental illness, he became ill himself with Lyme disease complex. His long road to recovery has given him insights into what patients are going through; his background in internal medicine trained him to understand the complexities of his multi-systemic illness; his knowledge of environmental illness has enabled him to evaluate immune dysregulation; and his study of energetic medicine, spiritual alignment, and healing from trauma has yielded insights into how to help patients shift their belief systems to being well. Recovery from Lyme Disease is by far the most thorough book available on Lyme Disease Complex. It will provide patients with information that will guide them on their healing journeys, as well as supplying doctors with instruction on appropriate diagnosis and treatment approaches. |
| bee sting therapy for lyme disease: The Benevolent Bee Stephanie Bruneau, 2017-07-15 A beekeeper and herbalist shares how you can use six products of the beehive: honey, pollen, propolis, royal jelly, beeswax, and bee venom. Not all new beekeepers realize that a honeybee hive produces a lot more than just honey. While your hard-working ladies will produce delicious honey, the hive as a whole also produces pollen, propolis, royal jelly, beeswax, and bee venom; all very useful things for humans, if we know how to use them. The Benevolent Bee describes how and why the bees make these products, how they’ve been used by humans throughout the ages, and how beekeepers can harvest the products. It also presents simple do-it yourself recipes for using the products in health and wellness, body care, nutrition, and craft. You'll learn how to make salves for burns and a cough syrup from raw honey; how to make a tincture, an infused oil, and a mouthwash from propolis, the anti-bacterial “bee glue” that lines the inside of the hive; and much more. Get crafting now, it’s all already in your hive! |
| bee sting therapy for lyme disease: The Thinking Beekeeper Christy Hemenway, 2013-01-01 A beginner’s complete guide to keeping bees in top bar hives, and why. What’s the buzz about the growing popularity of backyard beekeeping? Providing habitat for bees, pollinating your garden, and producing honey for your family are some of the compelling reasons for taking up this exciting hobby. But conventional beekeeping requires a significant investment and has a steep learning curve. The alternative? Consider beekeeping outside the box. The Thinking Beekeeper is the definitive do-it-yourself guide to natural beekeeping in top bar hives. Based on the concept of understanding and working with bees’ natural systems as opposed to trying to subvert them, the advantages of this approach include: · Simplicity, sustainability, and cost-effectiveness · Increased safety due to less heavy lifting and hive manipulation · Chemical-free colonies and healthy hives Top bar hives can be located anywhere bees have access to forage, and they make ideal urban hives. Emphasizing the intimate connection between our food systems, bees, and the well-being of the planet, The Thinking Beekeeper will appeal to the new breed of beekeeper who is less focused on maximizing honey yield, and more on ensuring the viability of the bee population now and in the coming years. Mother Earth News Books for Wiser Living Recommendation “You’ll find information you need here that’s not available anywhere else. Both you and your bees will benefit from Christy’s approach, advice, and philosophy.” —Kim Flottum, editor, Bee Culture Magazine “A unique and exceptional resource for the beginning beekeeper.” —Marty Hardison, top bar beekeeper, educator and international developmental beekeeping consultant |

| bee sting therapy for lyme disease: Prisoner of Romance Selwyn Mills, 2005 A New York couple meet on Love@AOL the week of 9/11/01 and assume they have at last found their soul mate. The timing of their encounter suggests a spiritual convergence - a phoenix rising from the ashes. She is 55, he is 73. Their courtship moves rapidly and they are married within six months. After resettling in Naples, Florida they start a non-profit organization called, Living Love in Action to promote romance and initiate a project to have 300 couples renew their wedding vows on Valentine's Day, February 14, 2004. The City of Naples is electrified and taken with the Incurable Romantics, who appear everywhere dressed in formal wedding dress. Articles are written in all the local newspapers and magazines. The town is geared for the big event when suddenly the Bride walks out. She invokes a bogus Order of Protection from Domestic Violence against her husband and initiates a divorce suit, claiming half of all his assets. In his attempt to stave off a bitter War of the Roses, he writes her a conciliatory letter offering a settlement without malice, which lands him in jail for 28 hours for Violation of the Order of Protection. Left with the shock of her action and the embarrassment of canceling the event, he is thrust into the irrational world of Florida no-fault divorce law. The protagonist entered into this relationship in a quest for a soul mate. He believed in the myth of finding his missing part -that part that would make the perfect fit, that part that would open the gate to a creative future together. When the romantic fog cleared he found his illusions shattered. He found his soul mate to be self-centered, dishonest, emotionally immature, financially irresponsible and disengaged from real friendship. But this book is not about divorce. It is about an unmanageable relationship and the part that illusions play in creating bad marriages. It is about a marital and criminal court system with unjust laws, formula-driven judges and indifferent lawyers. It is about the prevalence of myths that masquerade as truths. |

| bee sting therapy for lyme disease: Lyme Disease Alan G. Barbour, 2015-04-15 A world-renowned Lyme disease expert explains everything you need to know if you live, work, or play in areas with the ticks that carry disease. Once restricted to small forested areas in the northeast and north-central United States, Lyme disease is now a common infection in North America and Europe. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention estimate that more than 300,000 new cases occur each year in the United States. Misunderstandings over symptoms and treatment increase the public's concerns about the disease—which, if not properly treated, can become chronic and debilitating. An expert on tick-borne diseases, Alan G. Barbour explains the course of illness that results from infection, diagnosis and treatment options, and steps that can be taken to avoid a tick bite in the first place. The ticks that transmit Lyme disease may also transmit other disease-causing pathogens, and these other infections are considered as well. Drawing on real case histories of individuals with Lyme disease—or illnesses that may be mistaken for Lyme disease—Barbour explains: The biology of the spirochete, Borrelia burgdorferi, that causes Lyme disease The role of animals such as mice that carry the infection The life cycle of the ticks that transmit the infection The importance of deer in perpetuating the cycle The basics of diagnostic laboratory tests and how test results are interpreted How antibiotics are used in treating Lyme disease Infected ticks are abundant in the woods, in walking trails, and in the shrubs and tall grass where suburban lawns meet wooded areas. Barbour stresses preventing disease through community-wide ecology projects and individual and household protection. While it may be difficult to escape infection, understanding the danger, the symptoms, and the treatment goes a long way toward preventing long-term health consequences. Featuring a list of reliable web sites and a glossary of terms, Lyme Disease is an invaluable resource for everyone who is at risk of the disease or is involved in preventing and treating it. |

| bee sting therapy for lyme disease: Venomous Christie Wilcox, 2016-08-09 A thrilling tale of encounters with nature’s masters of biochemistry From the coasts of Indonesia to the rainforests of Peru, venomous animals are everywhere—and often lurking out of sight. Humans have feared them for centuries, long considering them the assassins and pariahs of the natural world. Now, in Venomous, the biologist Christie Wilcox investigates and illuminates the animals of our nightmares, arguing that they hold the keys to a deeper understanding of evolution, adaptation, and immunity. She reveals just how venoms function and what they do to the human body. With Wilcox as our guide, we encounter a jellyfish with tentacles covered in stinging cells that can kill humans in minutes; a two-inch caterpillar with toxic bristles that trigger hemorrhaging; and a stunning blue-ringed octopus capable of inducing total paralysis. How do these animals go about their deadly work? How did they develop such intricate, potent toxins? Wilcox takes us around the world and down to the cellular level to find out. Throughout her journey, Wilcox meets the intrepid scientists who risk their lives studying these lethal beasts, as well as “self-immunizers” who deliberately expose themselves to snakebites. Along the way, she puts her own life on the line, narrowly avoiding being envenomated herself. Drawing on her own research, Wilcox explains how venom scientists are untangling the mechanisms of some of our most devastating diseases, and reports on pharmacologists who are already exploiting venoms to produce lifesaving drugs. We discover that venomous creatures are in fact keystone species that play crucial roles in their ecosystems and ours—and for this alone, they ought to be protected and appreciated. Thrilling and surprising at every turn, Venomous will change everything you thought you knew about the planet’s most dangerous animals. |

| bee sting therapy for lyme disease: DIY Healing Ointments Logan Bell, 2025-03-21 Are you seeking a natural alternative to conventional skincare for healing minor cuts, burns, and skin irritations? DIY Healing Ointments unveils the art and science of crafting effective, homemade remedies for skin recovery. This book delves into the world of herbalism and natural skincare, providing a comprehensive guide to creating your own healing ointments using easily accessible ingredients. We explore the significance of understanding your skin and its needs, along with the potent healing properties of various herbs and oils. The book focuses on three core areas: understanding the science of skin healing, identifying and sourcing effective natural ingredients, and mastering the techniques for ointment formulation. These topics are crucial because they empower readers to take control of their skincare, avoid potentially harmful chemicals found in commercial products, and promote natural healing processes. Historically, herbal ointments have been used for centuries across various cultures to treat skin ailments. This book builds upon this rich tradition, incorporating modern scientific understanding of dermatology and phytochemistry. While no prior extensive knowledge of herbalism is needed, a basic understanding of hygiene and safety practices is recommended. The central argument of DIY Healing Ointments is that effective and safe skincare can be achieved through the mindful application of natural ingredients and time-tested techniques. This argument is vital in a world increasingly saturated with synthetic products, offering a sustainable and holistic approach to skin health. The book is structured to guide you through the process step-by-step. We begin by introducing the fundamentals of skin anatomy and physiology, followed by an overview of the key concepts in herbal medicine relevant to skincare. The subsequent sections detail how to identify specific skin conditions, select appropriate herbs and oils known for their therapeutic properties (such as calendula for inflammation, comfrey for wound healing, and lavender for calming), and source high-quality ingredients. The core of the book lies in providing detailed recipes and instructions for crafting various types of ointments, salves, and balms, tailored to address specific needs like eczema, minor burns, or insect bites. The text culminates in guidelines for proper storage, application, and safety considerations, ensuring responsible use of homemade products including how to test a small area for allergic reactions. The evidence presented within relies on a combination of traditional herbal knowledge, supported by scientific studies on the efficacy of specific plant compounds. Research from ethnobotany and dermatology journals is cited to substantiate the claims made about the healing properties of different ingredients. Methodologies include detailed formulations with precise measurements, step-by-step photographic instructions, and guidance on adjusting recipes to suit individual preferences and needs. DIY Healing Ointments connects to other fields such as botany (understanding plant properties), chemistry (understanding the interactions of ingredients), and dermatology (understanding skin conditions). These interdisciplinary connections enrich the book's argument by providing a holistic perspective on skin health and healing. This book offers a unique approach by combining traditional herbal wisdom with modern scientific insights. It emphasizes personalized skincare, encouraging readers to customize their formulations based on their individual skin types and concerns. The tone is conversational and informative, making complex topics accessible to a wide audience. The writing style is clear and concise, with detailed instructions and illustrative examples. The intended audience includes individuals interested in natural skincare, herbalism, DIY projects, and those seeking alternatives to conventional skincare products. This book is valuable to them because it provides the knowledge and tools to create effective, customized, and sustainable skincare solutions. As a craft and hobby guide, this book provides detailed instructions, lists of materials, and visual aids to facilitate hands-on learning. It also aligns with the health and fitness genre by promoting a natural, holistic approach to well-being. The scope of the book is limited to topical applications of herbal ointments for minor skin conditions. It does not cover internal use of herbs or treatment of serious medical conditions, which require professional medical attention. The knowledge acquired from this book can be applied directly in your daily life to address common skin issues, create personalized gifts, and promote a healthier lifestyle. While herbal medicine is generally safe, some controversies exist regarding the standardization of herbal products and potential interactions with medications. This book addresses these concerns by providing guidelines on sourcing quality ingredients and consulting with healthcare professionals when necessary. |
