Samsara Herbs Tick Immune Support - Japanese Knotweed, Cats claw, Andrographis, Cryptolepis, Sarsaparilla, Resveratrol, Tick Bite Support 240 Capsules

Always love this company. The products and support are superb. Highly recommended. The size of the supplement is about the size of a nickel and you can open them and sprinkle them on applesauce, yogurt, or in water and drink it. Those are the ways I do it as I have issues swallowing pills 💊. Start small with one a day and work your way up because they’re very potent. It has a sweet stevia licorice kinda taste so if you don’t want to taste it and you can swallow supplements and pills then you’re good to go. If you can’t then just mix with your fav food and chase down with water and you’re good to go

I appreciate that this formula is made from a concentrated water extract of herbs that, based on scientific research, are most highly recommended for recovering from babesia and lyme, as well as bartonella. I prefer a concentrated water extract of herbs rather than liquid tinctures and regular dry powdered herbs. I feel good about taking this formula, and the ingredient list is comprehensive, according to Bhuner protocol.

I have been using this product consecutively for 6 months and it is a lifesaver!! Finally, there’s hope at the end of the tunnel. Thank you Samsara for making superb formulations and please don’t stop, because you are saving lives! Yes, I complained of horrible debilitating die-off or herxheimer reactions and still do, but there’s no way I’m stopping now. It’s so worth it! I currently take 3 capsules 3x per day. For those of you that don’t know, most tick-borne Lyme infections (not including chemtrails and cave-dwelling or egg-laying types that I have no personal experience with) come with the camouflage infections Feline Leukemia Virus (FeLV) and Feline Immunodeficiency Virus (FIV), as well as Rabies believe it or not, and even Anthrax. I have 4 types of Lyme disease from a tick: Lyme 1,2,3&4 (spirochete, L-form, bleb, & cyst) as far as I know. I had these co-infections: Epstein Barr Meningococcal Meningitis Mold Candida Tapeworms Pinworms Amoebas Babesia Various other parasites in my eyes(spiders, mites, Protozoa, flagella) Worm in heart, not a heartworm Retroviruses FeLV/FIV Rabies Anthrax Unidentified herpes from animals Herpes Zoster Streptococcus STD’s also come with some, if not all infections: Syphilis Chlamydia Trichomoniasis Herpes Vaccines Possibly other bacterial infections, parasitic infections, and viruses were hidden or laid dormant. I may have had Bartonella in the beginning stages and did not know it, but had symptoms related to it. And a lot of the symptoms overlap so it gets very confusing dealing with such a vast array of complications. My former significant other and I have been battling Lymes Disease since November 2014 from a trip to Pennsylvania. Whatever you do, don’t quit too soon, just be persistent. You won’t regret it! Thanks again Samsara!

I bought this because it was significantly more cost-effective than the Samsara powder I was using. It seemed to work well enough. I'd get through a mild Herx and increase the dose a bit. It went on this way for a few weeks, till I got up to 1 capsule 2x/day for about 2 weeks. That was when I noticed that, in spite of obviously working (energy trying to come back, less pain and brain fog, fewer bad days, etc), I'd get to a point that the pills left me feeling weak and sick. It felt a bit like a cross between when my sugar's low (I'm hypoglycemic - this happened even when I'd eaten) and feeling cold and weak, like I might pass out. As a result, I'd have to stop taking it for a while, then start from 0 again, back to 2x/day for a couple weeks. In between these times, my Lyme symptoms return. This last time, even starting back at 1 capsule a day makes me feel this way. I just stopped completely, worried something in it may harm me. The powder form didn't do this to me at all. Despite knowing the formulas are a bit different, I'm not sure which ingredient(s) I should try to avoid as I try to heal from this awful disease. I still have half a bottle of capsules I can't use and can't afford to go back to the powder at this time. My symptoms have already returned with a vengence. It's unfortunate because I know it works...it just also happens to disagree with my system for some reason. Would I recommend this for someone else? I would, but with the caution to monitor it's effects on your body (and discern them from a Herx, of course). Every body is different and this may work beautifully for someone else.

great combo for lyme therapy

I was really excited about this product because it contained a lot of the supplements I wanted to try all in one product. After taking it for a couple of weeks my side starting hurting and I checked all the ingredients and found to my dismay that it contains pepper. So many products now contain pepper that the cumulative effect can be very negative on the bodies of some people - like me. I had used a great product that contained pepper for several years and started getting strange symptoms - pain in my side so severe I needed help getting out of bed. Then some very mysterious nervous system problems and some aching pain in my left thumb that hurt all the time. So I reviewed all my supplements and found several that contained pepper. For those who follow it, the blood type diet for type A says that pepper is an avoid so I dropped all the supplements with pepper and the nervous system issues went away almost immediately. The aching in my thumb slowly went away and has never returned. Even slower was the pain in my side but it eventually also went away. Unless I mistakenly take a supplement with pepper in it, my side is now pain free. Buyer beware of the latest popular fad such as putting pepper (or piperene) in absolutely everything, because no matter what it is, too much of even a good thing is too much, and can have unforeseen consequences. My message to the manufacturer: my wellness professional says that quality ingredients don't need pepper for absorption. If you want the business, please provide a product that is pepper free as well as this one. Don't fall for the latest fads. You're too good for that.

This is the newer Samsara Lyme and Co herbal mixture.(Tick Immune Support).The older is Tick Recovery.I have used them both for Lyme and Co and liked them enough to continue purchasing them.I do wish that they would sell a powder form of the newer Tick Immune Support style.After a week into the TIS,I noticed that my throat and sinus troubles had been reduced greatly.Also had a reduction in joint pain and brain fog.I have been using the TIS style capsules now for over a month,just having started my second bottle.I compare the effectiveness of this product to Doxycycline and think it holds its own.I don't believe that this is a cure,as there really isn't a cure,but it is a great alternative to antibiotics and helps keep the diseases in check.Personally I started off with one capsule 3x daily for the first 3 days then increased to 6/day,and now steadily at 9-12/day.I experienced some die-off for sure but it was minimal since I eased the herbs in.I took the old style Tick Recovery for about 4 months,2 different times.What I know from the experience is that like any antibiotic,you need to be on top of probiotics and of course need to be plenty hydrated with straight water(1/2 gallon a day is best).Your body needs to be able to flush or it will just get more and more toxic-always drink lots of water!Hope this review answers some questions you may have!

Excellent product, best results
