I've been pulsing Dr. Zhang's artemisiae for 4 months now and I do 1050mg/day and have never really noticed anything from it? I guess I will keep it up, hoping that it's doing something. I also am on ceftin, zith, malarone and plaquenil. Just started sida acuta, but haven't been good at remembering to do it every day and cannot do on days I do flagyl...
Treating lyme, bart and babs

Hoping for better days in the near future.

Sebnova81,

After 2 medications it's impossible to tell what is doing what.

You're taking way too much Artemisinin. Remember the scientists that worked testing it at Univ. of Washington, only recommended 1mg/kg of body weight.

All drugs, natural or chemical, are powerful!

God Bless,

Taosguy I cannot figure out the conversion to know the proper amount.

Most Lyme Dr's do say that it is only effective in high doses for treating Malaria type diseases.

Hello,

I told you the dosage from my experience. The Scientists said 1mg per kg of body weight. For me it would have been one 90mg capsule, but it took 5 capsules before it took effect.

lymeinmich,

Feel free to contact me anytime.

I've set survival records at every hospital I've been to, including MD Anderson, in Houston.

Love,

Hi Taos Guy! Interested in starting artemisinin for metastatic breast cancer to lung, was looking for Nutricology super Artemisinin, but it is backordered everywhere. Is DrZhang as good? Appreciate your posts about how it helped you with leukemia, snet your info to a friend name Gene who may contact you. Noticed you had another email in earlier post which is the one I sent to him...
