Below is a database of all herbs for Lyme, bartonella and babesia. This is for educational purposes only not medical advice, speak to your healthcare professional, who has diagnosed you with a psychological problem instead of looking at the underlying causes of illness because they either can’t be bothered or are too thick to do so.
For each herb, you’re able to add to a protocol basket as such and view this view the “My Custom Protocol” page via the menu.

Used forAdrenal / stress support
Dose20 drops in 4oz water twice daily, 10 min before breakfast and lunch
NoteContains Astragalus, which is contraindicated in late-stage chronic Lyme — it can aggravate symptoms by over-stimulating an already elevated Th1 response. A herb is not made safe by being in a blend. Schisandra also alters CYP2C9/CYP3A4 and can reduce warfarin levels; Rhodiola may interfere with MAOIs.

Product codeResearched Nutritionals RN174
Where to buy
Plant nameArtemisia annua (Sweet Wormwood) — whole herb
DescriptionThe whole-herb form contains the full spectrum of the plant’s active compounds working synergistically together, giving it a wider spectrum of antimalarial action than the isolated artemisinin compound alone. Preferred over isolated artemisinin specifically because using the isolated compound on its own carries a higher resistance risk with continued use.
Used forBabesia
DosingBuhner’s dosing tables give figures for isolated artemisinin capsules rather than for the whole dried herb specifically — a distinct whole-herb dose isn’t separated out in the source material. If using a whole-herb Artemisia annua tincture or capsule product, follow label guidance and start low.
NoteNot documented as a standard alcohol tincture ratio in the source material — dosed as capsules/extract instead.
Where to buy
Plant nameIsolated compound derived from Artemisia annua
DescriptionThe isolated active anti-malarial compound extracted from Artemisia annua, applicable against Babesia. Using it in isolation — rather than the whole herb — carries a higher resistance risk with continued use, which is why periodic breaks or cycling are required.
Used forBabesia
Dosing100–200mg, 3 times daily (Buhner). Ross cycles it more aggressively: 3 days on at an escalating dose up to 5 pills 3 times daily, then 11 days off, since the gut develops an enzyme that breaks the herb down with longer continuous use.
NoteNot documented as a standard alcohol tincture ratio in the source material — dosed as capsules/extract instead.
NoteOften does not work as well for Babesia strains from tick bites on the U.S. East Coast (Ross’s clinical observation).
Researched Nutritionals productResearched Nutritionals sell pure artemisinin as Artemisinin Solo — 250mg per 2 vegetarian capsules, no other actives. Their Artemisinin SOD is the same 250mg dose plus green tea, curcumin and quercetin, and is listed separately in this database.

RN caution: do not use while pregnant or nursing; use beyond one month should be monitored by a practitioner and include liver enzyme and haemoglobin testing; detox reactions may occur. Do not stack with Artemisia annua or Artemisinin SOD — all are the same active principle.

Where to buy

Used forNot documented for Borrelia, Bartonella or Babesia in the source material
DosingNo specific dose given in the source material.
NoteIncluded here for completeness since it was requested, but flagged because none of the source PDFs tie it to Borrelia, Bartonella or Babesia specifically — only to Candida. It will only appear under the “All” filter, not under any of the three infection filters, unless you have a source that documents it for one of them.
Where to buy
Plant nameCeanothus americanus (Red Root), Smilax medica (Sarsaparilla), Lomatium dissectum, Eupatorium perfoliatum (Boneset), Dipsacus fullonum (Teasel), Stillingia sylvatica, Juglans nigra (Black Walnut hulls) — 205mg blend

Product codeResearched Nutritionals RN142
Where to buy
Plant nameEupatorium perfoliatum
DescriptionUsed as supportive care for intermittent fevers and hot/cold flashes rather than as a core baseline therapy — part of the neuroborreliosis detox/support set. Reduces fever.
Used forBorrelia
Tincture dose — 1:51.25–2.5ml, 3 times daily
Tincture dose — 1:30.75–1.5ml, 3 times daily
NoteExcess doses can induce nausea and vomiting — a sign the dose should be reduced.

DosePer label. With Cumanda/Banderol: 5 bromelain with water and each dose
NoteMild anticoagulant activity — stacks with other fibrinolytics.

Used forDrainage / detox support
DoseModerate: 10 drops in 4oz water, 3–4 times daily. Maximum: 10 drops in 2oz water every 15 minutes as needed
Where to buy
Plant nameDesmodium molliculum (leaf) + Pimpinella spp. (stem)
DescriptionNutraMedix's number-one selling product and the backbone of every approach in their clinical manual — it appears in more protocols than any other product they make. It combines Burbur (liver/lymph drainage) with Pinella (neurological drainage), and it is the specific tool the manual reaches for when a Herxheimer-like reaction hits.
Used forHerx support, drainage — used across all NutraMedix approaches
Dose20 drops in 4oz water, 2–4 times daily. Herx protocol: 20 drops in 2oz water every 10 minutes for up to 2 hours. Alternative: 4 dropperfuls in 16oz water, sipped over 2 hours

Where to buy
Plant nameVitamin C 1500mg (as sodium ascorbate), R-Lipoic Acid 70mg (as sodium R-lipoic acid) per 2 teaspoons (10ml), liposomal
DescriptionHigh-dose liposomal vitamin C with the R form of lipoic acid. RN's rationale: oral vitamin C above 250mg is poorly absorbed, so liposomal delivery is the only effective high-dose oral route — many practitioners use it between in-clinic vitamin C drips. Pure R-lipoic acid may be up to 10x more effective than the racemic R/S mix sold as standard alpha-lipoic acid.
Used forHigh-dose antioxidant support
Dose2 teaspoons (10ml) mixed in water, away from food. Shake well; refrigerate after opening
NoteIf pregnant or nursing, consult your practitioner.

Researched Nutritionals productResearched Nutritionals sell this as Boluoke — RN note that essentially all published lumbrokinase research was done on this brand, and is often “borrowed” and applied to other lumbrokinase products.

Boluoke contraindications (RN 2022 Catalog): strongly inhibits platelet adhesion — do not take with strong antiplatelet drugs such as Plavix or Ticlid. Contraindicated in allergy to lumbrokinase or earthworm; recent surgery, lumbar puncture or arterial puncture; trauma; aneurysm; active internal bleeding or GI ulceration; any bleeding disorder.

Used forDetox / metal mobilisation support
Dose40 drops in 4oz water, every other night, 30 min before a meal
