I need advice on ramping up herbs. My Lyme doc gave me a bottle of dried herbs and also liquid of the same in liposomal. I started the dried 2 days ago. The max serving is 3 spoons 2x a day. I did 1 spoon once the first day,and 2 spoons the second day once. Go slowly ? Maybe do the 2 spoons for a week before going up. The lyme is not deep into the body. Maybe i wont herx bad. I have essential oils to.

I think your plan sounds like a good one, it is really super dependent on the person. I can handle high doses of herbs/antibiotics. But I also know people that herx horribly with the addition of one drop (!) of an herb. It also takes me a couple days to figure out if I will have a herx or a reaction. I don't know if that is the case with most people but for me it was usually 3-5 days after starting something when I would herx. It doesn't hurt to go slow..LOL on the contrary going fast might hurt a lot!
