Video Explanation: Biologix Center, Franklin, Tennessee, two weeks ago. A chiropractor is either playing an air guitar or taking a Biospectral Emission Sequencing reading. The purported theory behind the voodoo hand movements is that he is picking up some sort of vibrational energy from me and interpreting it through his own body. Or something like that. Judy surreptitiously shot the video to document the foolishness.

Summary
· The Biologix Center publishes its prices: $7,188 for one week and $14,375 for two. No insurance is accepted. Labs and three of the therapies are billed separately.
· The prophage induction they use is well established in biology. About 75% of bacteria harbor a dormant virus that is activated by DNA damage, and using that switch against infection is a live preclinical research field.
· The product sold as Induced Native Phage Therapy (INPT) contains no virus. Its maker describes it as a “mineral-enhanced aqueous suspension” containing “informational signals” rather than “active compounds.”
· Borrelia has its own prophage. In 2005, researchers induced it with a chemical mutagen and activated the lysis gene. They reported that they “did not observe cell death.”
· The 92% success rate is based on 26 patients at one clinic and was published by the owner of the company that makes the product. The endpoint was a blood test that flagged 21 of 23 healthy volunteers as positive.
· In the four randomized trials of prolonged antibiotics for post-treatment Lyme disease, 36% of the placebo group improved on its own. That is the benchmark any clinic’s success rate has to beat.
The chair
The chiropractor in the video told me I had an overgrowth of early cancer cells in my brain that no scan would show. He reassured me that a month of his treatments would clear it all up. He also told me I had roundworms, one kind macroscopic and one microscopic. He told me that Lyme was in my ankles, my gut, and my brain. He also told me I was allergic to nickel based on his oddball testing method.
I went along with it all because the money was already spent and I wanted the experience to be worth something. But hoping he could cure me is different from having it happen.
My wife Judy watched it all and thought the operation was fraudulent. She is skeptical, but I discounted her as I usually do. It took me over a week to admit that she was right.
I went to 554 Franklin Road in Franklin, Tennessee, where I spent twelve days and over $15,000 on hotels, supplements, and the center’s services. Every claim below has its source attached, so the next person facing this decision has something to check.
What the money bought
Biologix publishes its prices. One week is $7,188, and two weeks are $14,375. A $1,500 deposit holds the spot. Labs, travel, lodging, and three therapies (ultraviolet blood irradiation, methylene blue IV, and 10-pass ozone) are billed separately. No insurance is accepted, including Medicare.1,2
For that, the program promises “several one-on-one treatment sessions with your doctor,” all in-house testing, “40+ hours of supportive, personalized therapies,” and every supplement prepared during the stay.2 I got what was promised. My doctor spent about ninety minutes with me on most days. A neurologist gives a Parkinson’s patient twelve minutes and a refill, so ninety minutes of undivided attention has value, and it was the best thing on the invoice.
The rest of the daily menu included red-light saunas, massage, head magnets, BEMER pulsed electromagnetic field mats, intravenous vitamin drips, a vibration plate, and hyperbaric oxygen, which I skipped. I have studied most of these, and the evidence is thin for all of them. I understand everyone is enamored of hyperbaric oxygen, but I owned a chamber for years and was not impressed. Each of these is available within thirty minutes of my house in Los Angeles. None of them is the reason anyone flies to Tennessee.
The part of phage therapy that holds up
Roughly 75% of bacteria hold a dormant virus stitched into the bacterial genome, called a prophage.3 When the bacterium suffers DNA damage, it triggers a stress program called the SOS response. RecA protein activates, the phage repressor is cleaved, the dormant virus wakes, replicates, and bursts the cell from inside. A 2023 review in PLoS Pathogens puts it plainly: “The canonical trigger for the lysogeny-to-lysis transition is the activation of the bacterial SOS response.”4
This is not fringe science. Mitomycin C, ultraviolet light, ciprofloxacin, bleomycin, and hydrogen peroxide are all documented prophage inducers.3 It is also why doctors hold back antibiotics in E. coli O157:H7 food poisoning. Waking the Shiga toxin prophage is what causes the kidney failure.5
Turning that switch on deliberately is a live research idea. A 2025 paper in mBio gave worms a temperate phage, one that can lie dormant inside the bacterium, plus ciprofloxacin and cured infections at an antibiotic dose that failed alone. The authors observed that “many antibiotic treatments are already a form of ‘accidental’ phage therapy.”6 A companion paper in Scientific Reports named the strategy temperate phage-antibiotic synergy.7
The premise is sound. Anyone who dismisses phage induction as pure invention has not read the field.
Where the chain breaks
The first break is the ampule. PhagenCorp’s website describes each Inducen formula as “a clear, odorless, tasteless, non-toxic, non-allergenic solution” and “a mineral-enhanced aqueous suspension” imprinted with electromagnetic signals.8 The About page states that the formulas contain “informational signals” rather than “active compounds” and that the product is neither a drug nor a supplement.9
Mineral water with a signal on it. Every published inducer of a prophage is a physical agent that damages DNA or induces oxidative stress. No peer-reviewed work shows that an electromagnetic signature imprinted in water induces anything.
The closest legitimate experiment is a 1998 study in Current Microbiology. A 60 Hz field at 5 gauss applied to MS2 phage cultures produced a brief delay in phage yield and no change in the final count.10 MS2 has no lysogenic cycle, so there was no prophage to induce. A separate 50 Hz study of E. coli found no change in cell numbers or transcription.11 That rules out the SOS pathway on which the whole theory rests.
The second break is targeting. Even in a test tube, with mitomycin C in hand, selective prophage induction is beyond current science. A 2025 Nature paper recovered 134 inducible prophages from 252 human gut bacterial isolates. Only 18% of the prophages predicted by computer were inducible in pure culture.12 No method exists to choose which prophage is induced, and nobody has done it inside a living person.
The third break is taxonomy, and it is the one that ends the argument. Bacteriophages are viruses that infect bacteria. A 2023 review in FEMS Microbiology Reviews defines them as “obligate parasites of bacteria.”13 A 2025 paper in mBio states that phages “exclusively infect bacteria” and “cannot replicate within eukaryotic cells.”14 The World Health Organization reports that phages “selectively target and kill bacteria” and “do not infect human cells.”15
Now open the Inducen-Para page. The target list includes more than fifty organisms, including Ascaris lumbricoides and its eggs, Giardia lamblia, Entamoeba histolytica, Plasmodium falciparum, Toxoplasma gondii, Taenia solium, and Schistosoma mansoni.16Ascaris is a roundworm, a multicellular animal. Giardia, Plasmodium, and Toxoplasma are protozoa. Taenia and Schistosoma are worms. None is a bacterium.
A companion formula, Inducen-MLD, claims to target fungi, and Inducen-SIBO/SIFO claims to address fungal overgrowth in the small intestine.8 Fungi are not bacteria either. A phage cannot infect a roundworm for the same reason a lawnmower cannot cut hair. Wrong machine, wrong kingdom of life.
Yoho Comment: I paid a chiropractor to tell me I had Ascaris in my brain. Then I paid him again for water whose manufacturer claims it targets Ascaris by activating a virus that has never infected a worm in the history of microbiology. The first bill was for diagnosis. The second was theatrical.
The Lyme question
Borrelia does have a prophage. Eggers and Samuels identified it in 1999 and named it phiBB-1, sitting on the 32-kilobase circular plasmids present in every isolate.17 So the theory has a target. This is the strongest fact in the entire Biologix case.
In 2005, Zhang and Marconi treated Borrelia with the mutagen MNNG and confirmed the prophage operon switched on. They reported: “while we observed significant BBL23 upregulation upon MNNG treatment, we did not observe cell death.”18 BBL23 is the holin gene, the lysis trigger. They pulled it, and the spirochetes lived.
Instead, phiBB-1 moves genes. A 2016 paper in Pathogens and Disease measured transduction between Borrelia strains at 1.23 x 10^-6 transductants per cell.19 A 2024 paper in PLoS Pathogens found that the phage packages “large portions of the B. burgdorferigenome.” It reported that cp32 prophages “are induced in the tick midgut during a bloodmeal.” It described the phage’s role as “mediating horizontal gene transfer between Borrelia strains.”20
The spirochete’s own phage is activated at the moment of transmission, in the tick’s gut, as the bacterium prepares to enter a new host. It is a diversity generator, not a suicide switch. The cp32 plasmids also carry the ospE and CRASP genes that Borrelia uses to evade complement. Inducing phiBB-1 in a patient would be expected to shuffle immune-evasion genes among spirochetes.
No lytic Borrelia phage has ever been isolated. phiBB-1 is the only characterized phage, and it is temperate. A 2024 review in Frontiers in Microbiology on current and emerging approaches to eliminating Borrelia does not mention phage therapy.21 Outside the Biologix owner’s own Cureus papers, there is no in vitro study, no animal study, no independent case report, and no registered trial of phage therapy for Lyme disease.
Yoho Comment: This is the finding I would want if I were the one selling the product, yet it points the wrong way. The single published experiment that induced Borrelia’s prophage produced a switched-on lysis gene and living spirochetes. Twenty years later, nobody has produced a better result. That is not a gap in the literature. That is the literature.
Where the 92% comes from
My referral source told me the center has a 92% success rate.
In November 2021, Cureus published “Induced Native Phage Therapy for the Treatment of Lyme Disease and Relapsing Fever.” The lead author, David A. Jernigan, DC, founded Biologix. Twenty-six patients with post-treatment Lyme disease syndrome were treated. Twenty of them, or 77%, tested negative after the initial course, and 24 of 26, or 92%, tested negative after extended treatment.22
The endpoint was not a symptom score or a walking test. It was a blood test, the Phelix Borrelia phage qPCR, performed at a laboratory in Belgium. Patients were counted as successes when a laboratory value converted.22
That test uses the polymerase chain reaction to detect a prophage gene called terL.23 In December 2021, a group of Dutch and German Lyme researchers published a formal Opinion in the same journal that had published the validation paper. They reported that “of the 23 healthy controls, 21 showed a positive signal in the terL PCR in at least one of the 12 samples.” They added that “it is highly unlikely that this would be found in over 90% of the population.” At 90% specificity, they calculated a maximum attainable sensitivity of 62% or 57%, which is “worse than single-tier or modified two-tiered testing serology.”24 I found no published reply and no independent replication.
The author owns the company that produces the treatment and disclosed this: “David A. Jernigan declare(s) stock/stock options from PhagenCorp, LLC. Owner of PhagenCorp, LLC that produces the Inducen formulations.”22 Credit for the disclosure. A co-author listed as Dodd KK matches Keeley Dodd, the other authorized member of PhagenCorp on the Florida corporate record.25 A later Cureus case report is co-authored with a Biologix staff member.26
Four NIH-funded randomized trials tested prolonged antibiotics for post-treatment Lyme disease syndrome, and none showed sustained benefit.27 In the Klempner placebo arm, 36% of patients improved without treatment, 39% worsened, and 25% stayed the same.28 In the 2016 PLEASE trial of 280 patients, every group improved after the open-label lead-in, and no group separated afterward.29
The reported 92% is a conversion rate from a test that called 21 of 23 healthy people positive. It covers 26 self-selected patients at one clinic, measured by the man who sells the product. That is a laboratory value moving in a direction the seller likes.
The journal
All four of Jernigan’s publications appear only in Cureus.30 Springer Nature acquired the journal in December 2022. In January 2024, it retracted 56 papers for fabricated authorship. In August 2025, it abolished author-suggested peer reviewers, citing “the potential conflict of interest,” after documented cases of authors’ spouses reviewing their work and of fabricated reviewer accounts.31In October 2025, Clarivate delisted Cureus from the Web of Science Master Journal List, and the journal lost its impact factor.32Three of the four papers predate that reform.
A Cureus paper is indexed in PubMed Central, which makes it appear to be literature. It is a self-published clinical anecdote that cleared a light editorial screen.
The bedside method
Jernigan calls his diagnostic method Biospectral Emission Sequencing. His 2024 Cureus paper describes a technology that reads “electromagnetic signatures emitted by DNA.” The reading is taken at a “Global Access Point” located “slightly above and between the eyes on the brow,” using a “polymeric Kapton resonance membrane.”33 That is the object in the video.
Strip away the vocabulary, and the procedure is a man sensing a change in his own body while he holds a substance near a patient. That family of tests has been evaluated under blinding for forty years.
In 1988, three experienced applied kinesiologists evaluated eleven subjects for four nutrient deficiencies and compared their findings with laboratory assays. Their conclusion: “The use of applied kinesiology to evaluate nutrient status is no more useful than random guessing.”34
In 2001, four Health Kinesiology examiners performed 560 blinded muscle tests on seven patients with confirmed wasp venom allergy. Kappa, a measure of agreement beyond chance, was 0.03, with sensitivity 40%, specificity 60%, and overall accuracy 51.9%. The published conclusion used the same phrase: “not more useful than random guessing.”35
In 2005, two dentists trained in applied kinesiology tested 112 volunteers for tolerance of dental composites, then repeated the tests in a blinded manner. Fourteen matched, 26 did not; p = 0.98.36
In 2001, the BMJ published a double-blind study comparing electrodermal testing with skin prick tests in 30 volunteers, with more than 1,500 individual tests. “Electrodermal testing could not distinguish between atopic and non-atopic participants.”37 A 2008 systematic review of 22 kinesiology studies found “insufficient evidence” for diagnostic accuracy or the validity of muscle testing.38In 1998, JAMA tested 21 therapeutic touch practitioners with one to 27 years of experience, and they were correct in 123 of 280 trials.39
The explanation is the ideomotor effect, the same mechanism that moves a Ouija planchette and a dowsing rod. Small, unconscious muscle movements, initiated without any sense of conscious control, produce a result the operator credits to an outside source.40
In 1998, forty college students were trained in facilitated communication and asked to facilitate for a confederate. All forty produced messages they attributed to her. Eighty-nine percent produced responses that matched information given to the facilitator but unknown to the confederate.41 None of them were lying. Every one of them was the author.
My doctor knew about my positive Lyme serologies before he tested me. He then diagnosed Lyme.
Yoho Comment: Judy called it in the room, and I discounted her because she doubts everything. Doubting everything is a poor general policy but an excellent one in a room where a man is reading your body through a plastic membrane. She has earned my apology.
The brain cancer
A chiropractor told me that I had a growth of cells in his brain “that may be microscopic and not visible on a scan.” That sentence claims cancer and shields the claim from every test that exists. No imaging refutes it. No biopsy refutes it. A claim that cannot be wrong is not a diagnosis.
Any physician who said that in an ordinary office might be answering to a board—but I have seen a lot of equally improbable nonsense out of standard medical “science.” The method behind the claim has never beaten a coin flip under blinding. The man delivering it is licensed to adjust spines. The patient receiving it had already paid.
The Kansas record
I was told the center had been thrown out of Kansas and had found a friendlier regulatory climate in Tennessee.
In April 2014, a patient named Nils Nilsen filed a small claims petition against a chiropractor at the Hansa Center in Wichita. He said he received sauna and footbath detoxification treatments and “was not given mineral replenishment.” He also said he “had to go to emergency and stay in hospital two times because sodium in my blood was too low.” He sought $4,000, but the court dismissed the case for insufficient proof of causation.42
The Kansas Board of Healing Arts opened an investigation and subpoenaed the records. Hansa challenged the subpoena but lost, and the Kansas Court of Appeals affirmed on March 4, 2016.42 The clinic renamed itself Biologix in 2019 and opened in Franklin, Tennessee, on March 16, 2020, describing the move as an expansion.43
Nobody threw them out. The record shows a clinic that went to court to prevent its licensing board from taking a patient’s chart. That patient had been hospitalized twice for low blood sodium after sauna treatment without salt replacement.
One more item from the clinic’s website. The FAQ states that the staff includes “both medical doctors and doctors of chiropractic, all of whom are board-certified.”1 The staff pages list two chiropractors and two registered nurses.44 A chiropractor managed my care.
The table of supplements
I photographed the entire collection and priced every item. The evidence for each is attached.
PhagenCorp Inducen ampules, four formulas including Inducen-CIRS and Inducen-Para. Each box holds ten 2 mL ampules (0.6 fluid ounces total), taken one ampule twice daily, so a box lasts five days.16 Contents by the maker’s description: mineral water with an electromagnetic signal.8 Evidence: none, for the reasons above.
Pomifitrin, from Jernigan Nutraceuticals, costs $37 for two ounces.45 The company was co-founded by Sara Koch Jernigan, DC, who now owns and manufactures the line and is David Jernigan’s wife.46 The ingredients include Maclura pomifera thorn, leaf, and petiole, plus rehmannia, Asiatic dogwood, Chinese yam, schizonepeta, ginger, poria, and tree peony root bark.45 The claims include anti-tumoral, antifungal, antiviral, and antiparasitic.45 There are no human trials of this product, nor of pomiferin or osajin, the Osage orange compounds usually invoked. Those compounds concentrate in the fruit and heartwood, and this formula uses thorn, leaf, and petiole, so the label does not even promise them.
CellCore HM-ET Binder, about $85 for 120 capsules. A 390 mg proprietary blend of humic shale, broccoli sprout extract, and micronized zeolite clinoptilolite, with no individual doses disclosed. No published clinical trial exists for the product.47
Yoho Comment: See my post about binders for evidence that zeolite is primarily a marketing phenomenon.
Raintree Sangre de Grado resin is the red latex of Croton lechleri. This one deserves respect because a purified fraction of it became an approved drug.
The FDA approved crofelemer as Fulyzaq on December 31, 2012, now sold as Mytesi. The indication is non-infectious diarrhea in adults with HIV on antiretroviral therapy.48 In the registration trial of 376 patients, 17.6% on crofelemer met the endpoint, compared with 8.0% on placebo.49 That evidence pertains to a standardized 125 mg enteric-coated tablet. Drops of raw resin have no adequate human trial. Note also that crofelemer is an antidiarrheal, so it works against the one symptom that improved for me.
Uriel Cinis Equiseti 6X is an anthroposophic homeopathic preparation made from horsetail ash, diluted one part in ten, six times, to one part per million. Uriel Pharmacy of East Troy, Wisconsin, describes hand-potentizing its remedies using rhythmic methods performed with meditative focus.50 The FDA label indicates “temporary relief of headache.” The label includes the standard statement that the agency is not aware of scientific evidence supporting homeopathy.51
Histamine Scavenger, from Professional Health Products, is $41 for 90 capsules. It contains a 675 mg proprietary blend of larch arabinogalactan, pine bark extract, aloe, bromelain, quercetin, citrus bioflavonoids, licorice, nettle, and marshmallow root.52 It contains no diamine oxidase, the histamine-degrading enzyme with small randomized trials behind it. A product named Histamine Scavenger, with no histamine-degrading enzyme, was named before it was formulated.
Researched Nutritionals BDNF Essentials, about $77 for 120 capsules. Lion’s mane, skullcap, black rice extract, bacopa, ashwagandha, CDP-choline, and phosphatidylserine are in two proprietary blends of 1,175 mg and 175 mg, with no individual doses provided.53 The company did publish a study, which is more than most. It was open-label, single-arm, uncontrolled, sponsor-funded, and enrolled 20 people.54 Repeated cognitive testing produces improvement through practice alone, so a single-arm design cannot separate the product from the retest.
Total Brain, from Nutri-West, 90 tablets, one daily. Each tablet contains small doses of twelve vitamins and minerals, plus a 265 mg proprietary blend of more than thirty ingredients, including bovine brain tissue, pregnenolone, DMAE, ginkgo, huperzine-A, and phosphatidylserine.55 With thirty ingredients in 265 mg, most are present in trace amounts. Pregnenolone is a hormone precursor and belongs on any medication list. The label warns that it contains egg, soybean, and fish.55 There is no trial of this product.
The bottles from the clinic itself, labeled HOMEO, “Viscera FA,” “INPT Help,” and “Topical INPT Lyme,” are homeopathic mixtures made on site, with my name typed on them. No published trial exists for any homeopathic or anthroposophic remedy for Parkinson’s disease. I looked for one and found only case reports and opinion pieces.
Yoho Comment: Two practical rules from that table. Binders adsorb without discrimination, which is why activated charcoal is given for overdose. Take any binder at least two hours away from every prescription medication. The money already spent is gone whether I swallow the capsules or not. The only question left is whether the next dose does anything, and for most of that table the answer is no.
What I noticed, and what it is worth
After ten days at home, my constipation has improved. I realized, however, that I was taking more magnesium glycinate and threonate. My sleep might be better. I am somewhat more alert. My strength in the gym is poor but possibly slightly improved. That is the whole list, and I am an optimist reading my case.
Parkinson’s disease has one of the largest placebo responses in clinical medicine, and there is a number for it. A 2017 double-blind trial gave intranasal glutathione to 45 patients. The placebo group received a saline nasal spray and improved by 3.4 points on the Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS). The high-dose group improved by 4.6 points. Neither treatment group beat placebo.56
Salt water up the nose bought 3.4 points. Twelve days of daily attention, a dozen therapies, forty hours of hands-on care, and a great deal of hope bought me softer stools and possibly better sleep. My result is smaller than the placebo arm of a Parkinson’s trial.
The glutathione question
I received a single 1,000 mg intravenous glutathione infusion, which improved my strength and tremor for about 24 hours, consistent with my prior experience. The question is whether to run it at home every other day.
The enthusiasm stems from a 1996 open-label study of nine untreated early Parkinson’s patients. They received 600 mg intravenously twice daily for 30 days. The authors reported an average 42% drop in disability that lasted two to four months after stopping.57 Nine patients, no control, no blinding.
In 2009, Hauser and colleagues, with celebrity neurologist David Perlmutter as a co-author, conducted a randomized, double-blind trial. Twenty-one subjects received 1,400 mg intravenously three times weekly for four weeks. There was no difference from placebo on motor scores or activities of daily living (p = 0.32).58 A 2021 review concluded that “there is currently no evidence to suggest that GSH is able to effectively improve the symptoms of PD.”59 A 2026 systematic review of nine glutathione and N-acetylcysteine trials deemed the glutathione findings inconclusive.60
The pharmacology is worse than the trials. I found no human study showing that intravenous glutathione raises brain glutathione. The transport evidence is a 1990 rat study showing a saturable carrier at the blood-brain barrier with an apparent Km of 5.84 mM.61Human plasma glutathione is in the low micromolar range, hundreds of times lower, so at any IV concentration the carrier moves almost nothing. The one human study that did raise brain glutathione used the intranasal route, which bypasses the barrier rather than crossing it.62
Then there is the product itself. Intravenous glutathione is not an FDA-approved drug, so every dose is compounded. In January 2019, seven patients who received IV glutathione at 200 mg/mL developed “nausea, vomiting, lightheadedness, chills, body aches and sneezing” within minutes. One was hospitalized for hypotension and shortness of breath. FDA testing found “excessive bacterial endotoxin with some results as high as five times the appropriate limit.”63 On August 5, 2026, Victory Medical Center Pharmacy recalled compounded glutathione 200 mg/mL vials nationwide due to elevated endotoxin.64 Same product, same concentration, same failure, seven years apart.
A peripherally inserted central catheter, or PICC line, has its own arithmetic. A meta-analysis of 58 studies and 109,163 patients found a pooled symptomatic venous thromboembolism rate of 3.7% per placement.65 Home infusion bloodstream infections occur at 0.20 to 0.23 per 1,000 catheter-days, which compounds over a year of dwell to roughly 7 to 8%.66
The harms are documented in patients like me. In 2017, the CDC published five cases of serious infection resulting from treatments for chronic Lyme disease. Two of the five died, one from septic shock related to a central venous catheter and the other from intractable C. difficile colitis.67 Your friend’s patient, who was normal for a year on a PICC line and then was lost to follow-up, is a story missing its ending.
Yoho Comment: The 24-hour benefit is symptomatic, and symptomatic effects are worth having. If I pursue it, I use a peripheral IV rather than a central line, and I source it from a 503B outsourcing facility that provides a certificate of analysis for endotoxin with every lot. I do not tell myself it is slowing the disease, because the one randomized trial says the opposite. Finally, I’m going to try snorting some of it because it’s easier than getting an IV. I may take some oral DMSO, dimethyl sulfoxide, at the same time. What the hell.
The terrain argument, and the objection to it
Bob Ehrnman, DC, my chiropractor at the Biologix Center starring in the above video, told me that clearing parasites and Lyme would increase my odds of recovering from Parkinson’s. That is terrain theory, and as a general proposition, I believe it. Chronic infection drives inflammation, and I removed Judy’s root canals and watched her recover from AL amyloidosis, a disease in which misfolded proteins pile up in the organs. I have written about this, and my position has not changed.
The idea that infection drives brain disease is serious science with strong support.68 The objection to the specific claim made to me is a Danish cohort study of 2,067 patients with confirmed Lyme neuroborreliosis, matched with 20,670 comparators over 31 years. The hazard ratio for Parkinson’s disease was 0.79 (0.35 to 1.82). The authors reported no increased long-term risk of Parkinson’s, dementia, Alzheimer’s, or motor neuron disease.69 I found no study of any design showing that antimicrobial treatment improves idiopathic Parkinson’s disease.
None of that affects my decision about my serologies, which I have made and am not revisiting here. It does mean the statement made to me in that room, that clearing an infection would raise my odds against Parkinson’s, is unsupported by the best-powered study on the question.
And the terrain argument does not launder the product. If chronic infection is driving my substantia nigra into the ground, then whatever clears it has to be a treatment. Mineral water with a signal on it is not one.
What a testimonial is worth
According to his account, the man who referred me had neurological Lyme with positive serologies. It presented as anger episodes, which resolved within a week of phage therapy and remained gone for years. He has studied natural medicine for twenty years, twice as long as I have.
I believe him. Testimony is evidence, and it deserves a hearing, which is why I got on the plane.
His account is also that of a single man, without control, in a condition that comes and goes, treated with a product whose mechanism cannot do what it claims. Anger episodes are the kind of symptom that remits on its own, and a third of post-treatment Lyme patients improve in the placebo arm of a randomized trial. Both statements are true at once, and holding both is the entire discipline.
Yoho Comment: One recovery told with conviction moved me more than four randomized trials, and I knew about the trials before I booked the flight. That is the whole mechanism, and it does not require anyone in Franklin to be lying. That is why the field invented controls.
The number nobody quotes
Johns Hopkins reviewed 1,261 patients referred to its infectious diseases clinic between 2000 and 2013. Of those, 72.2% did not have Lyme disease, and 83.9% of that group had already been given antibiotics for it.70 A follow-up paper found that 65% received an alternative diagnosis, most often anxiety or depression, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue syndrome, migraine, osteoarthritis, or sleep apnea.71
That is the population sitting in the waiting room in Franklin. Difficult, hopeful, and in most cases carrying a treatable condition that nobody is looking for while the Lyme protocol proceeds.
What comes next
The Inducen ampules stop. Whatever is in them is not what the box says.
A chiropractor claimed a cancer that no scan would show, and that sentence deserves to be tested and closed rather than carried around for two years.
The homeopathics go in the bin. The products with known pharmacology get finished, and any binder stays two hours clear of every prescription.
The glutathione decision gets tracked with grip strength, timed sit-to-stand, and a tremor score, written down. Six weeks of numbers will settle it.
The craziest thing was the allegation that I was nickel allergic. I learned how to confirm this during dermatology residency. We would tape a nickel coin to a patient’s inner thigh for 24 hours. If he did not develop dermatitis, he was not allergic to nickel metal. I could also disprove that with a $600 blood test sent to Europe. This has a long history, and it would diagnose titanium or other metal allergies as well.
My readers may already know this, but shoulder, knee, and hip implants are proprietary mixes of different metals, and implant manufacturers often will not release the mix’s identity without litigation. So you can’t be sure what is damaging you if you are allergic to your implant. Nickel is the most common contact allergen there is. In the North American Contact Dermatitis Group series, 17.5% of patch-tested patients reacted to it.72 Titanium is rare by comparison. Nine of 1,500 consecutive dental implant patients tested positive, or 0.6%, and the usual population estimate is 0.2 to 1%.73,74
If I’m negative, I don’t have to worry about my shoulder implants damaging me or consider ceramic shoulder implant replacements. But it seems like a waste of money. It is one more freaking thing to worry about, and I should let it go.
This experience made me feel like Wile E. Coyote, who sprinted off the canyon rim and stayed airborne until he looked down. When I looked down, I lost my intellectual footing in this branch of alternative medicine.
Everyone in that building seemed sincere, and sincerity is the most expensive thing in medicine because it makes the rest of it go down easy. I am still left with my weakness and other symptoms, and I am starting to think about seeing a Lyme specialist in Los Angeles. My wife is going to give me hell if she sees more bills, but fortunately you guys have been helping me with your Substack subscriptions. I seem to be almost solvent now.
I could send this write-up to the chiropractic board and complain about the doctor, but that seems like overkill and perhaps even bad karma. I don’t think he is naive about what he is doing.
Yoho Comment: Borrelia keeps its phage on the same plasmids that carry the genes it uses to hide from the immune system. It wakes that phage in the tick’s gut, at the moment it enters a new host. An organism that reshuffles its own disguises on the way in is a hard target for any drug. Willy Burgdorfer, the man credited with finding the cause of Lyme disease, worked on weaponizing ticks, and Kris Newby’s Bitten lays out his late-life account of it.75 That is the kind of complexity a weapon has, and no bottle of signed water touches it.

Postscript
I am left with a lighter wallet and a pissed-off wife, and my intellectual grounding has been swept from beneath my feet. I am now back to where I was a month ago, which is profound weakness and fatigue, positive serologies for Lyme disease, and no clear indication of how serious it is. Some of my sources think that my tests represent only healed and stable disease. My Parkinson’s seems to be advancing, however, with worsening tremors.
So I am considering going to a local Lyme clinic with a good reputation that I found online. For the Parkinson’s, I have commenced weekly or biweekly intravenous DMSO, which has extensive patient experience and animal studies, but of course, no placebo-controlled trials. So far, that hasn’t helped, but I’m only two weeks into it. I found an over-the-counter source of intravenous DMSO that is fully filtered and sterile. I will publish my experience soon along with the source of all the medications I’m using and the references.
Sometimes the most positive learning experiences are negative or derived from people at conferences rather than the presenters. I am in contact with another patient from the clinic with advanced ALS who is quite sophisticated, and we are sharing our expertise with each other. A lot of these neurological diseases respond to intravenous DMSO. The high serum levels you get this way are thought to yield superior results to taking it orally.
Parting Shot
Some of these alternative people take themselves very seriously and believe whatever they’re doing is beneficial, even when it’s obviously crazy to a rational observer. Two years ago, I was in a room with someone I respect who has a phenomenal record in other ways, who subjected my wife to a little scalp massage and claimed he could do wonders with it. I think he called it cranial sacral therapy. She noticed nothing.
But who am I to say? Maybe playing the air guitar does something in the right circumstances.
Hey , I bought summa that stuff too! Donu2019t be so hard on yourself, the information you shared will undoubtedly help others. Thanks uD83DuDE4FuD83EuDD18

A lot can be said for a placebo. There is a lot of data there, maybe this show helps those people. I feel in my health journey that has mainly be fixed, perhaps time was really the best thing and eating balanced food. I will say that if your are really wanting to explore – that I found Elliot overtons thiamax protocol really worthwhile, B1! that only set me back $35
I got it, but I’m afraid to try it because I had a paradoxical reaction to thiamine.
B1 doesn’t work alone and has to have magnesium and a few other minerals with it, plus glutathione. Maybe research it more and try again?
It is a well-documented phenomenon where taking B1 to fix symptoms like chronic fatigue, brain fog, or neuropathy makes those exact symptoms dramaticallyworse for a few days or weeks before they improve.
This reaction most commonly happens with highly bioavailable, fat-soluble forms of B1, such as TTFD (thiamine tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide), benfotiamine, or high doses of thiamine HCl.
The “thiamine flare” is actually a sign that your cells have a profound, long-standing need for B1, and your metabolism is undergoing a violent “reboot”.
They baffled you with bullshit. Any such place that does blood work in house and sells expensive supplements and unproven treatments to treat a number is suspect. They threw the kitchen sink at you, so had you improved in any way, they could not have pointed at one thing and claimed it helped.
From “Stan Freberg Presents The United States of America (Vol.1)”
Ferdinand: “Isabella, whenrrrya gonna stop fooling around with these nuts?”
Wow! So sorry you had to go thru that. Sounds completely awful, and very expensive to boot. These kinds of fraudulent enterprises preying on sick people are the worst of the worst, just as bad as Pharma. Well maybe not quite, usually the fraudulent enterprises like this don’t kill you with their “side effects” like Pharma does.
I commend your courage in sharing this. Best of luck to you.
Oh, I also wanted to mention the books by Stephen Buhner: Herbal Antivirals, and Herbal Antibiotics. He was not a charlatan and had a record of successfully treating people with untreatable conditions. (He died recently in 2022 or 2023, I believe.) He has a protocol for treating Lyme in one of those books.
Yes I have another book of Buhner’s that I haven’t yet read but it was highly recommended by Dr. Neil Nathan, who has done great work treating the sickest of patients and wrote a book or two about it.
I would call it a demonic treatment. Scary to look at. In the best case not normal.
I would encourage you to consider the work of Dr Jack Kruse (on Patreon). Very much cheaper and actually works. Get your light environment right (natural light from sunrise, dark from sunset) and do some grounding and EMF reduction. Nature has the answers already, not supplement sellers or overpriced service providers.
Love Dr Jacku2026 so knowledgeable
And thereu2019s no risk in your advice, Babblemouth.
I’m sorry you got duped.
It’s funny how people are prepared to contort their lives into so many twists trying to evade what keeps dowsing us. All the chemicals in the water, the skies, the soil, food, etc. Yet no energy is taken to address these onslaughts. I realize some people spend a lot of energy trying to change the system but that doesn’t work and hardly works, they throw a bone now and then to keep everyone engaged. What is needed is to stop funding it. We need to talk about how we can do that but everyone is so chicken it’s almost vomit inducing. They’re going to kill us anyway folks. Do you want to finally set the terms to how we live in our natural habitat before the whole earth is contaminated? Then why are we saying nothing about how we can deal with these circumstances without contorting ourselves every which way to try to keep healthy. Let’s clean up our environment and talk about how we can do this. I have a very simple solution, it’s so simple yet we can do it. I like simple personally and the entire system is very very cumbersome and ponderous.
The climate scam has fooled many into believing that CO2 is the real danger so toxins hardly get a nod.
Yes and so our comments need to change that narrative. Instead of calling it “climate change” we need to coin our own term for it – I call it pollution.
Also instead of calling them chemtrails we could call them aviation poisonous emissions. Just a suggestion, pick your own words the main thing is we need to occupy the narrative.
My point was that there is no such thing as CO2 catastrophe. That’s my conviction after progressing from being a 100% believer, to reading what the other side says (imagine that!) to now believing that it’s an impossible theory that makes no sense.
Of course. CO2 is a necessary component in the atmosphere, and they tried to dupe ignorant people into falling for the idea of “carbon neutral” everything. CO2 itself is not the problem.
What do you see as the problem?
I sort of agree. But the gases from burning “fossil fuels” do turn into CO2 though it’s a different type than the one natural beings breathe out.
Sorry to hear the lack of meaningful success, your story is valuable for all of us, I am also suffering from chronic lyme (myamotoi strain same as yours) and am going to switch from Herbs to Dr. Horowitz famous double dose dapsone protocol, that’s the only thing with real studies showing 50% or more remission for a year or more, and higher remission rates that go with more pulses. Yes it’s generic antibiotics, but the program at least works. I’ll be biting the bullet. Hail mary!
I am also a Lyme patient. I have used double dapsone and it was good for lowering Lyme levels but also a pretty toxic treatment … I think it was worth it but I wasn’t able to rely on it for long, it comes at a cost physically. did six pulses. aged my skin, gave me more gray hair. and I think it accelerated my ovarian aging. It was ok but not something I could rely on long-term (I wasn’t in the 30-50% who get remission from it, it lowered my Lyme levels but I kept relapsing after stopping it
I am now seeing someone through Root and Branch Chinese Medicine Portland for Chinese herbalism, which has been STRONG against infections, he has some extremely advanced approaches for deep-set infections including venomous insects and a formula that was invented for plague in the 1600s, he knows all kinds of ways to approach infections. It’s been extremely productive. also he is treating other things that were in the way of my healing like liver qi stagnation and a lack of circulation (the antibiotics weren’t getting everywhere they needed to go). Travis Cunningham and Root and Branch Chinese herbal pharmacy are also top-notch and do telemedicine.
I am also using CD/MMS as described in The Curious Substack and while not a cure for me it’s a good add-on treatment, I use about 16 drops a day throughout the day, it has definitely helped.
I also like to nebulize Argentyn23 colloidal silver, it’s a lot stronger than taking it orally, the tiny particles get absorbed more like an IV.
I did chlorine dioxide for seven weeks at about 20 drops a day over 8 hours, and it made my Parkinson’s worse. I think it’s a good general approach if you don’t have Parkinson’s. CDS is More gentle.
Chinese herbalism like they practice it in China (very serious, as serious as western medicine, they treat all kinds of serious conditions with it) might be able to help with both Parkinson’s and Lyme.
some discussion of Chinese medicine for Parkinson’s: https://www.meandqi.com/knowledge-base/conditions/parkinsons-disease
Root and Branch Chinese medicine in Portland is trying to recreate the kind of treatments you can get in China — where doctors routinely cure serious things that are considered incurable in western medicine — in the US. Travis Cunningham there might be able to help.

they have a podcast with some really astounding patient results: https://www.rootandbranchpharmacy.com/podcasts
many blog posts: https://www.rootandbranchpharmacy.com/blog
this is not your average ‘herbs” this is like a hardcore alternate system of medicine that can sometimes diagnose and treat things (according to its own systems of diagnosis) that western medicine can’t fix
I’ve had Lyme disease for 18 years and have tried all kinds of alternative healing methods as well as dapsone, antibiotics, ozone therapy, everything and this approach is really astounding me, they can achieve such incredible results so quickly and with so few major side effects.
Sorry to hear the double dapsone wasn’t a good long term solution. If it also doesn’t give me remission, I will be running your exact playbook, just go herbs long term, which have already lessened my symptoms quite a bit (the ol’ Cryptolepis / japanese knotweed + cinnamon clove oregano methylene blue), with a glass or two of CDS every morning for good measure. It does really seem that if all else fails, herbs are our last, but not least option 🙂 – Thanks for sharing
some Chinese herbal approaches can be much stronger than the typical Lyme herbs. I never felt much from average Lyme herbs (tinctures, capsules, etc.) but when doing self-decocted (I extract the herbs every day), high-dose, prescribed Chinese herbs (according to Chinese medicine principles) I actually am getting a lot of results. it’s a very different approach than just taking your average herbs.
I recall Dr Bill Rawls saying that same thing that the concentrated herbs are where the real therapeutic doses are. Luckily my wife is Taiwanese and we’ll be moving back there soon so in theory I should have access to all that stuff and I would love to experiment. Which are some of the herbs that you utilize?
you will have a lot of access to this in Taiwan! I would ask around or get referrals for really good Chinese medicine doctors who are good at diagnosing you according to your Chinese medicine diagnoses (such as blood stagnation, liver qi stgnation, etc.) and who get good results. The good doctors develop reputations. Look for someone who specializes in herbalism not just acupuncture and who likes to tackle hard-to-treat conditions and complex cases.
You normally get the best results from herbs when self-decocting bulk herbs. Sometimes the doctor will have you soak and then simmer them on the stove each day and then drink that. My doctor from Root and Branch has me steep them overnight in a thermos with near-boiling water.
Sometimes the same herb that I’ve taken before and didn’t feel anything from (like teasel, Japanese knotweed, etc.), I got very intense results from self-decocting like this.
The doses often need to be very high for serious conditions like long-term chronic Lyme. My doctor has me using 90g/day of herbs right now decocted into like an herbal decoction in the hot water as described above(far more than the amount of herbs that would go into your average daily dose for a tincture or capsules). He says that sometimes in China they’ll prescribe up to 300-400g/day to patients for serious conditions. I really started getting results when I started using 60g/day or more of herbs.
They use all kinds of interesting things in Chinese medicine to approach chronic infections. It depends on the rest of your constitution and diagnoses which ones would be right for you. Some that my doc has thought were right for me (some that I’ve used and some he plans to use) have included Da Yuan Yin decoction (amazing biofilm-reducing technology), Cao Guo, Xu Duan, Bing Lang, Wu Gong, Quan Xie, also Tu Bie Chong for circulation to get the treatments into the small spaces where pathogens hide. Some of these are not herbs but rather insects and animals (Chinese medicine makes use of everything available in the natural world). I was really floored by my reaction to the ones he’s used on me so far. It feels like finally having the right “cleaning solution” to clean up my infections like finally having grease-cutting cleaning solution appropriate for cleaning a very dirty stove when you’ve been failing to clean it successfully with just mild soap and water. I have so much less infections now.
I like that my doctor is well-versed on the animal prescriptions, like including bugs, leech, etc. — these can be especially powerful.
Chinese herbal medicine is a very powerful form of technology and can do a lot if you find someone who is skilled in using it.
Wow that is amazing response thank you for the info. That is very eye opening that they could even go up to 400g per day. It almost seems like the typical tincture doses that are floating around on all these standard programs might work for immune modulation helping your body to kill the infection, whereas with these heroic Chinese medicine doses they are meant to really do some deep serious killing, amongst all the other benefits you mentioned for organs etc. In my mind that would make perfect sense. I am embarassed to admit my wife is really deep into chinese medicine similar to yourself, but I never considered that it could be useful for lyme, in my mind I just assumed it was too gentle. Sounds like the opposite. And with someone 18 years in saying it’s effective, well, I can already here my wife saying “I told you so” haha. This is something I am definitely going to have to take seriously since we’ll be living there permanently and there’s about 0 chance anyone can really do prescription ABX long term. Appreciate the info.
yes it absolutely the case that serious Chinese medicine can be VERY hardcore. they cure cancer with it. they reverse cirrhosis. they reverse all kinds of organ failure with it. they treat all kinds of serious and life-threatening conditions. it’s an incredibly serious area of study.
I think in the west there aren’t many doctors who have enough experience with it to use Chinese herbalism at this level of power/intensity, so the prevailing view of Chinese herbs in the west is that they’re just for supportive help like a small boost to the immune system (and that was my view before, as well). but there are a few in the US and probably many more in Taiwan who have studied in China or from people with experience in China where they know what Chinese herbalism can achieve.
I’ve had to reconsider my view of Chinese medicine as well. I used to write it off as not enough, like “just herbs,” but it was because what I had tried before was extremely weak and gentle compared to these serious, very targeted, high-dose formulas that aren’t messing around. and the dosing was nowhere near enough and the format wasn’t suited for the situation (serious conditions usually need the daily-decocted herbs so the compounds are the freshest and most potent, not just premade powders or tinctures).
it’s a serious form of medicine!
Root and Branch has a lot of blog posts and podcasts if you want to get more of a taste of it:
https://www.rootandbranchpdx.com/blog-posts
https://www.rootandbranchpdx.com/media
Travis Cunningham who works there as an herbalis has interned in China and might have suggestions on how to find someone good to work with in Taiwan, he is a really nice person.
reddit r/Chinese medicine might also have people who know good resources in Taiwan
I keep hearing from so many people that to really experience this treatment modality you want the person’s training to be close to China where it’s done best, the quality of care and what they’re able to achieve there is much better, it’s really a skill to learn how to prescribe the herbs effectively because there are unlimited possible combinations and doses and thousands of possible ingredients. I have heard that herbalism is considered even more serious an area of study than acupuncture.
https://www.reddit.com/r/ChineseMedicine/comments/1rd6p1m/highly_recommend_going_to_china_to_experience_tcm/
this was a good podcast on how Chinese herbalism works when done well and how the right formula can make a difference for a condition that’s been untreatable for decades: https://qiological.com/blood-stasis/
when it comes to treating infections, it’s not just about things that are directly antibacterial but also things that basically expose the bacteria to the immune system, break down biofilms, interrupt bacterial processes, also just weird things like the scorpion- and centipede-based medications that bacteria have a hard time generating resistance to. they have been treating serious infections since long before antibiotics were invented. It has also been really helpful for me to have better circulation to my spleen and thymus, which are important for generating immunity (Chinese medicine sees immunity as created by other things in the body that can be influenced, not just existing in a vacuum).
it really comes down to the skill of the practitioner prescribing the herbs and using potent quality herbs in the right form, right dose and the patient being willing to keep taking them and adjust to the profound changes they cause in the body (they change your physiology, not just like acting like a crutch like lots of western treatments) and report back to the practitioner accurately. it’s not always a walk in the park, but if you want change, Chinese herbs done in serious way are a major way to get it.

I got rid of Lyme with a colloidal silver protocol 15 years ago but but didnu2019t work for bartonella.
Thanks for sharing. Sorry that had to put such a dent in your pocketbook. I admire your tenacity, research, and willingness to share and hope you’ll find the path you need.
I’m not terribly religious but I’ll say it anyhow: God bless.
This company crosses path with another of very dubious value – The Wellness Company. Sorry you got into itu2026
Well that was a vacation that was wasted in the end. I am a firm believer that the Body has all it needs to heal, repair, and regenerate without anything added except your own energies and belief. I have been told at least 4 times in my life that I would NOT be alive in a few years. Most recently in 2019 when I experience Cardiogenic Shock after not receiveing appropriate tx for myxedma! I was given less than 10% chance of leaving hospital. Then I,was told that I had an 80% chance each year of saddened death for the next 5 years. Yet here I am 7, almost 8 years later. I did NOT believe the allopathic docs and I refused their toxic meds…and was fired by my cardiologist. Oh well.
I truly believe you would get much more healing using EFT and Quantum Touch. And it won’t cost you a vacation to learn and use. And it certainly will NOT harm you or worsen your condition. Worth looking into, IMO. Believe in your body’s ability to heal…Believe in YOU!
Peace and Light
Blessings
You are trying to assess medicine from one paradigm of human health with the rules of almost the polar opposite paradigm of health. I would suggest that you take the medicines as prescribed, even if you cannot accept the logic of them (which does fall down in the mainstream medical paradigm but not in the alternative medical paradigm to which they belong). Only that way will you know if you should be questioning your mainstream paradigm and learning to understand the one you have walked into without sufficient understanding of it. I am not saying that these people are any good, I am saying that the way you are assessing them is not.
Great comment and my thoughts exactly.
lol the air guitar. I have undergone similar ridiculous treatments in the past. thanks for being so open about your journey! will you write some reviews on the business pages for this business to warn other potential patients?
“Yoho Comment: Judy called it in the room, and I discounted her because she doubts everything. Doubting everything is a poor general policy but an excellent one in a room where a man is reading your body through a plastic membrane. She has earned my apology.” Smart man.
Do Hulda Clark. Her books can be downloaded for free. At the end of her book, there is a chart with all the frequencies for commonly known pathogens. All U need is a good cheap frequency generator and a single mosfet amplifier, a run of speaker cable terminated by 2 sections of 2 or 3 inch copper pipes 3/4 gauge to hold in the hands. I am speaking from experience. It solves even microbes in the brain. Do what Jennifer Daniels recommended to halt the proliferation of microbes: 1 teaspoon of real turpentine (from a tree)
Where do I find her please? uD83DuDE4F
I might have mentioned it already, but try Ivermectin
Good of you to share your experience. That takes great courage.
Hope springs eternal. You try what looks like it might work, based on the best info you’ve got at the time.
Sorry it didn’t work.
The tone of your writing has a blend of cynicism/sarcasm. It appears you already have made up your mind that you experienced u2018quackery.u2019 Few treatments will ever work when that is the backdrop. So that alone will limit your success from it.
As a pharmacist, I doubted many of the things you described in this piece.
But as I trained in applied kinesiology (AK) (and many of the other tools, modalities etc that you mentioned in this piece) I learned that modern medicine has more holes in it to count, and holistic medicine helps fill those holes.
Now, while there are MANY legitimate QUACKS out there who donu2019t know what they are doing and make a bad name for the holistic fields , I do strongly believe that AK, homeopathy, and advanced detox strategies- when used by skilled practitioner- can produce massive beneficial changes in the body, and help to heal most conditions.
And these changes take time. I donu2019t think you should expect to see your Parkinsonu2019s symptoms go away after a week or two of treatment.
Lastly, I think relying on clinical studies to prove or back up the methods that the practice used on you is folly. Clinical evidence trumps studies every time. If a practitioner gets results , it doesnu2019t matter what the studies say. I would be more interested in the practitioneru2019s results with patients than whether a study can confirm it.
taking methylene blue is dangerous.
I believe in pulsed antibiotic therapy. Itu2019s basically what most of the top Lyme doctor use (Jemsek, Horowitz, Ross, etc).
It takes 1-2 years or more. The NIH funded studies are not capable of assessing such an approach. For the whole duration youu2019re gently killing Lyme, the first 5-6 months youu2019re killing Babesia. You know youu2019re done when night sweats go away, sometimes it take a year. Then you focus on Bartonella, it could take 3-5 months longer until symptoms improve. Then taper down on abx.
Nothing ventured, nothing gained, Dr Yoho? We live and we learn.
Keep on keeping on. Your spirit is inspiring.
Thank you.
Have had success w/HealthGrades.com to review comments on doctors., after finding the majority aren’t worth the gas to drive to their office. You might contact Dr. Sunny Raleigh, Irvine, CA, she may help, knowing you’re a doctor.
Have seen miracles with LD, PD & many other chronic illnesses at her location. Went from having to rest after 20 steps, not being able to string 3 correct words together, vertigo, touch, light, sound & smell sensitives. Begging spouse for end-of-life choices in 16′ to now doing; 4-hrs water aerobics, 2.25-hrs HIIT & 1.5-hrs balance, strength & stabiltiy. Total 7.75-hrs of intense exercises & have more energy than I can ever remember having.
Keep in mind, I did everything she recommended, including diet. Started out very cautious, tried top of the list of protocols first, then notices CTS had almost gone away after 2-wks. Went to the second thing on her protocols, my world leveled out vertigo gone. Then started the IVs last, always finding improvements. The needles were a set back for me! Had to get a port-a-cath, anxeity attacks were out of control. Soon I was able to drive myself, started going 4x a week, that’s when dramatic changes started.
2019 I stopped IV’s, have only gone back once after getting dental implants from a periodontist that DIDN’T use ozone when drilling in to bone.
Have seen people from all over USA, including AK and a few from Europe come in for treatments. To be honest, I am afraid to go to any other doctor, I am positive they’ll kill me due to my age!
Doc,
I think you should look at Valasta.net . Sam Shepard inventor has cured his cancer and developed this product which eliminates inflammation. Valasta has cured , reduced symptoms and stopped Parkinson’s . No side effects , all natural and somehow he got FDA approval for this natural product. All this is documented on his site . He would be a great interview for you just like Mr Supple.
One good side effect is you develop a regular bowel effect daily . Im proof as many others
Also, I extremely disagree with you in regards to William Makis. I think you have it wrong. Im patient #75. I reduced my gastro esophageal cancer by 40% when taking his program of high dose Ivermectin and Fenben. This path along with some other treatments lead to me being cancer free 22 months later . Makis is patriot and now has 9000 patients .
I won’t hold it against you , we still love you and your desire to help people and hope Valasta can do it for you!!

My wife and I met in 1984 at Palmer West on orientation day. We learned the Palmer based methodology and attended conferences and continuing education in rehabilitation, auto traumatology, various methodologies in spinal and extremity care, as well as nutritional support, and helped many people over our 36 years in practice.
The object that doctor is rubbing is called a Toftness device. It is usually employed to help the practitioner locate segmental dysfunction. Since I was never trained on it I can’t even begin to explain why feeling resistance on a membrane stretched like a drum aligns with diagnosing a region of the spine, or elsewhere for that matter. As with nutritional kinesiology testing, originally developed as “applied Kinesiology”, it appears to introduce bias into the analysis consistently.
At the Palmer University system, and other accredited schools, Toftness and classic AK are not taught. The object of a chiropractic education is to produce doctors who can provide appropriate manipulative therapy for a wide range of injuries and conditions safely and effectively. Subjective analytics are discouraged.
This chiropractor is not actually practicing his licensed profession.
Meanwhile, have you read much about nebulized glutathione?
https://www.facebook.com/share/v/19GsTvPB8s/
Wow very interesting info on that video. Thanks for posting and sharing.
Have you tried the carnivore diet? It will give you all your nutrition and you will be able to then reintroduce items like gluten or dairy to see if you have an allergy to anything.
My story: I have had asthma for 30 years, and been on the steroid puffer. Then I discovered only a month ago, that this is what has caused my cataracts, retinal tears and possibly glaucoma.
These are the side effects of long term asthma steroid puffer use. Thanks a lot!
I’ll try anything once. Did regular sinus rinses with CDS and DMSO added which I have been doing for a while now.
So I went on the carnivore diet. Couldn’t stick to it totally as my partner is practically vegan. (We have friends our age who are vegans and they are the healthiest people on the planet, Seriously. )
So I had meat, fish, eggs etc with vegies only. No bread, flour gluten, grains or dairy. 2 nights later my partner noticed that I had slept through the night without coughing and wheezing. And that was 2 weeks ago, and I haven’t used the puffers once since then. My lungs feel totally clear and I can take a deep breath for the first time in years without a cough and spit at the end.
Good butcher for pasture fed beef, organic if you can afford it (I cannot).
What do you think?
Itu2019s unfortunate that you went through this. Although I can certainly understand why you did. You hoped it would work or at the very least help somewhat. Donu2019t be to hard on yourself. I myself have Bartonella, Lyme, CIRS from mold, and Mast cell activation. They like to hang out together and you can often find
Them together. If you have Lyme you most likely have ones of its buddyu2019s. A good LLMD can be of great help. Nancy Brown MD, Arizona is great. Thanks for sharing with us.
And no I do not think youu2019re an idiot
Never trust a chiropractor outside his area of expertise. Even within their area of expertise, many are incompetent.
Many are because they base their treatment on a static image or just what theyu2019ve always done which can be hit or miss without a permanent result. It can help, but temporarily. However, that is changing for a few who have learned the dynamic analysis Dr C calls the Master Reset and Y.E.S. tests. Any Chiro willing to take their skills to the next level can be trained and those who have are seeing amazing results. And people are seeking them from across the country and other countries too. The goal is to get a trained Chiro in every state. So far about 12 doctors including one in Canada and one in Australia.
See the comment on this I left for R Yoho.
Enjoy your articles. Find a medbed & get yourself healed.
R. Yoho, So sorry you had a bad and expensive experience that left you without much help or answers.
I believe I shared this statement with you once before – u201CParkinsonu2019s is a dopamine transport issueu201D
And I said you can learn more about why and how on Dr Cu2019s Health and Wellness here on Substack
https://substack.com/@masterreset
Here below Iu2019m going to share more for your sake and others seeking answers and help. And if you choose to pursue this, I assure you it will cost a fraction of what you paid. I hope this helps.
The statement above (full below) and this video of B** and his wife L*** caught my attention in 2024. So I read and watched everything about what this was about. Then I took my parents to Dr C a few weeks later and also met the couple from the video at a follow-up, who I also chat with about the healing journey.
https://www.tiktok.com/@ogchiropractic/video/7374606596883631391?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc
The Power of (your) Central Nervous System (CNS)
u201CParkinsonu2019s is a dopamine transport issue.
Dopamine is the neurotransmitter responsible for movement, amongst other very critical things.
Dopamine is transported inside CSF (cerebrospinal fluid) which is the circulatory system of the CNS. It is completely separate from the blood by your meninges/dura (blood brain barrier).
When the upper cervical vertebrae are misaligned it can cause a significant alteration of CSF flow.
If CSF and dopamine canu2019t get to the prefrontal cortex and the frontal lobe – it will/can manifest as Parkinsonu2019s. Depending on what specific areas are affected it will give all the different symptoms of Parkinsonu2019s that people can experience.
Like thereu2019s a dam blocking or altering a riveru2014 Literally just unblock it, remove the dam, and the u201Criveru201D will flow normal again. Dopamine reaches the frontal lobe and the symptoms disappear. Remove all layers of upper cervical misalignment, and keep the upper cervical alignment (everyone does at some point), complete the retracing cycles (mandatory healing process), and the results will be permanent–not because of me or anyone else, but because the body is capable of healing itself if given the opportunity.
This process is VERY different than traditional chiropractic and other techniques of Upper Cervical chiropractic care. All upper cervical techniques use imaging to determine what to adjust–and while imaging is the gold standard for pathology, it does NOT tell you how a joint “moves”.
What you watched is upper cervical care AFTER a special analysis– something entirely different that uses the inherent reflex systems in the central nervous system to give you precise and accurate information regarding the diagnosis of misalignment – a system of analysis – that makes this one of a kind.
(Dr C calls this the Master Reset)
Joints fundamentally move, therefore imaging will never tell you the full and correct diagnosis of upper cervical joint misalignment. With this system we can unlock the CNS and all subsequent layers of misalignment (separate events–physical traumas– great enough to create upper cervical misalignments that happen to occur on top of previous upper cervical misalignments–the spine has to fully unravel in reverse order of the all of the traumas acquired and absorbed)
This is NOT Faked.
His left hand has the slightest movement seen in the video (15 minutes after the treatment). The residual effects of dopamine bathing the frontal lobe in CSF takes time to smooth out, but eventually completes. (Shaking had ceased entirely later that day.)
Then a healing process still has to take placeu2014 “retracing cycles” are real.
Will discuss this in subsequent videos
The rate of which this happens and fully smooths out is different for everyone. This one went fast and we caught a dramatic response on camera after 15 minutes, and his hands were violently shaking before. Every minute this space stays open it will improve and improve.
But as God as my Witness, that is not faked even a little.u201D
u201CDisclaimer***: This video is NOT treating Parkinson’s Disease. This video is treating upper cervical misalignment, and the CNS is then responding to the “condition” known as “Parkinson’s”.
We do NOT treat or “cure” anyone of “disease”.
We set the CNS/body free, and the CNS/body heals itself–like it was Designed to. Period.u201D

Learn about the MasterReset (MR) and the Y.E.S. analysis tests. They are dynamic/ not static which is why this is different from every other doctor and treatment. Only about 12 doctors have been trained thus far for these analysis tests and the keys to unlock each layer.
There are numerous testimonies shared on the site that can be read and a chat group link to a community of others going through the process, where you can ask questions of others as well as some of the doctors including Dr C, who regularly responds.
There was a discussion in the chat group community regarding LYME. Here was one comment:
u201CMy daughter tested positive for Lyme disease after having it for approximately 3 years. She started to stutter it was so bad. u2026went to see our friend who is a Naturopath. She treated her for parasites with natural herbs and also supported her liver, kidneys, GI and helped with detox. She was uD83DuDCAF in 3 months. This was many years ago before we found Dr C. It might be worth looking into along with the MR and nutritional offerings from Dr C.u201D

Must be nice to have the money to prove you are an idiot. I don’t have those resources. Any help would be appreciated .
Very interesting article. I give you lots of credit for trying things and also attempting to evaluate them sanely. I know thatu2019s not easy with a serious health situation. Two short comments: I saw a credible sounding post on Facebook where a woman said her sister was cured twenty years ago of Parkinsonu2019s by doing a parasite cleanse. It came up in passing in a conversation about an entirely different topic and sounded sincere. Also, years ago, in 2007, I spent 3 months at a now closed clinic in Pennsylvania doing a sauna program 4 hours a day, every day including weekends. This program was evaluated in a medical journal I read beforehand and lowered levels of an array of toxins. It was also used at ground zero and may have been developed by Scientology, which I know nothing much about. All I can say that it shifted something permanently and positively in me for a neurological issue (not Parkinsonu2019s). Maybe intensive sauna is worth researching. All best wishes to you and your wife.

I have been taking nano silver from terral03.com.
It instantly cured the edema in my feet, my high blood pressure, and lots of parasites expelled daily.
When I had cancer I spent over $100k on things, mostly supplements, IV’s and hyperbaric. I avoided the kookier things, and the things I did are common alternative medicine for cancer patients. Many are ones you mentioned. But one reason I never questioned it is that I felt better during that time than I’ve ever felt in my life. I later learned I’ve had a misdiagnosed immune deficiency all my life, and those things I did may have been eliminating many latent infections. Regardless, I refused the 5 chemo’s that were standard of care, and I have no evidence of cancer for 4.5 years now. Personally the kinds of claims that doctor made to be red flags, but on the other hand you only spent $20k and who know, maybe something helped.
The best I have seen on Lyme disease is this book:
Healing Lyme Disease Naturally: History, Analysis, and Treatments
by Wolf D. Storl (Author), Matthew Wood (Foreword), Andreas Thum M.D. (Foreword) Format: Paperback
written by an anthropologist who is also a herbalist of considerable expertise.
His discussion of the conventional treatments and his frustration with their shortcomings, let him eventually to a Tibetan teasel root which did the trick. The discussion of the morphology of Borrelia burgdorferi:, its relation to other spirochetes and history was outstanding.
Dr. Storl also has a number of other interesting herbal books and presentations in both English and his native German. Don’t let the long white beard and nature forrest look fool you, the man is a genius.
Robert,
once again I urge you to try frequency therapy! It is way less expensive (one time investment of 350 bucks for the basic kit) and has almost unlimited upside potential because it can treat a variety of diseases. I am speaking from experience!
https://www.spooky2.com/products/
For what it’s worth, do you ride a bike? It often helps people with Parkinson’s and doesn’t cost much. Just throwing it out there since it’s so simple. As always, my best wishes.
I also would recommend frequency therapy
Thank you for this update. I am constantly impressed by your ability to self critique. I read a comment somewhere “It’s not all chiropractors, but it is always a chiropractor”. Good on Judy. She is right, he was absolutely playing the air guitar. The problem is he beleives it is giving him the knowledge he needs, which is a lie. These rituals are not benign, and the practitioners who use them have no idea what they tap into or how to control it. Accounts of former Reiki masters who woke up and got out tell how it all started out great until it began screwing with the rest of thier life, health, and even thier children’s mental health. Spiritism works, just not in the way you expect, or ultimately want. The deception is that they are shrouded in pseudo-scientific jargon, like ‘quantum resonance’, so we don’t see spiritism for what it is.
More and more I am seeing little to no result even from seemingly industrial strength wonderfully impressive scientificky sounding protocols. Even the most basic things like a headache we struggle to understand and help. And the catchcry ‘everyone is individual’ has alot to answer for. If we are really that individual is there any hope to understand our health at all? I am comfortable talking about mechanism of actions and the like. If there’s a pathway, I can manipulate it. Deficiency and toxic burden are valid. But too often the health ‘science’ is not reproducible, and we come out with more and more convoluted pathways to explain the discrepancy. Dr Yoho, you are far ahead of most in understanding what could physically be causing the problem. But, what if the cause of the problem is not physical? Henry Wright, now deceased, believed 80% of sickness is spiritually caused. No doubt deliverance from anger, unrepentance, unforgiveness etc improves health outcomes. Tom Loud is a minister who says he heals 75% of people he prays for – no belief required from the sick person. A bold claim. Both wrote books about it. Maybe this is something you can try once you exhaust the biochem.
Sorry for the mishap, but thanks for sharing.
In ancient times, monks gifted with special powers were called to search for water.
But beyond this sensitivity, they were in a constant state of prayer and introspection. That is, they drew on their inner divine power. Believing that these abilities can be imitated, for a fee, is a mistake induced by the loss of knowledge and traditions.
There is an ancient memory of these powers within us.
And both charlatans and official science exploit this.
What can I say?
The path to our immortal soul doesn’t fit inside a $17,000 bottle.
Always hoping that the next $17,000 isn’t for some Californian pseudo-guru uD83DuDE04
I offer all my best wishes and encouragement.
What are your thoughts on Chlorine Dioxide Solution Doctor Yoho?
Thanks for your honesty, Dr. Yoho. Even the most intelligent people can be duped, especially when one is desperate for a cure or, at least, a significant improvement of debilitating symptoms. Placebos can be very powerful in certain circumstances. Faith healing can work but, I think, miracles are rare. Pain and suffering can bring us closer to God and be the wake up kick in the butt that we may need. Valuable lessons can be learned and taught by these experiences. I hope you can find peace and comfort no matter where your life path may lead you.
