What is your background and where did your interest/specialisation in Lyme come from?

I come from a scientific background. Initially I studied for a Bachelor of Science Biology both at the University of Freiburg and the Ludwig Maximilian University in Munich, followed by the international Master’s degree in Nutrition and Biomedicine at the Technical University of Munich.

After finishing, I was convinced I wanted to go to nutritional therapy, aiming to help and inform people about the connection between their everyday nutrition and health; everybody eats every day, but nevertheless, most people know very little about it.

So I went on looking for jobs in that sector, and luckily found a place here at Make Well Nutritionals. As the company is specialised in herbal supplements to support the treatment of Borreliosis/Lyme disease, I started doing research on the topic, and was totally fascinated by it from the beginning.

At what stage of Lyme treatment should patients consider their diet?

Suffering from Lyme disease often requires an antibiotic treatment. Diet should be considered right when the treatment is started, as antibiotic treatments are very demanding on the body. Further, before the treatment, chronic disease and inflammation in most cases have already led to poor vitamin and mineral states, as it is very common that the nutrient resorption in the intestine is impacted in a negative way.

Both during Lyme treatment and afterwards, nutrition is a major component in terms of giving the body the best ability to fully heal, and maintaining health in the aftermath, meaning a balanced diet and the refill of vitamin and mineral storage is very important during all stages of Lyme treatment.

What are the benefits of a healthy diet during Lyme treatment?

The benefits of a healthy diet are numerous. Initially, strengthening of the immune system by sufficient supply of all vitamins and nutrients required; anti-inflammatory nutrition can also help to relieve the body of exogenous factors that can trigger further inflammation. Such exogenous factors may be a high sugar load, leading to insulin resistance and formation of advanced glycosylation end products; a shift in the omega 3 to omega 6 fatty acid ratio; as well as trans fatty acids from fried foods and toxins or pollutants taken up by the nutrition. Further, a diet rich in fibre and probiotics is critical for gut health, to prevent diarrhoea or constipation, to recover the internal microbiome, and finally to help proper digestion.

Make Well - vegetables — Eating a healthy diet as part of Lyme treatment can really boost your chances at recovery.

How does a healthy diet geared towards Lyme treatment differ from a general healthy diet?

The diets of both Lyme patients and the general healthy population should focus on the same broad aspects of a balanced diet. However, during treatment, Lyme patients should pay special attention to harmful and sensitive triggering substances, as their body and immune system are weakened from disease and treatment. They have an even higher demand of nutrients, and in many cases, supplementation is required to refill vitamin stores. Further, Lyme patients often face problems with digestion, and need nutrition that is more easily digestible.

Inflammation is a key component of a chronic Lyme infection. What are the effects of a healthy diet on inflammation?

A healthy and specifically anti-inflammatory diet can help heal the body and avoid other instances of internal inflammation. Nutrition can help to increase the input of antioxidants, which neutralise harmful free radicals that affect DNA, cells and tissues. Further modulation can be performed by increasing the intake of beneficial nutrients such as omega 3 fatty acids, which act as precursors for anti-inflammatory messengers. Other nutrients are known to have direct anti-inflammatory impact, such as ginger, curcuma, blueberries and papaya.

Are there different types of diet you'd recommend depending on the individual patient, or is there one overarching diet that's considered the best?

Overarching, it is recommended to eat as regional, seasonal and organic as possible in terms of meat, fish and vegetables/fruit. This is mainly to avoid the antibiotics, pesticides and hormones that are used in mass production and conventional farming. Further, premature harvesting and long transportation of fruit can influence their bioactive compounds, as well as seasonal differences.

Depending on the individual patient, the dietary prescription can be focused on individual existing parameters, such as persisting diseases like obesity, diabetes, coronary heart disease etc. Many existing diseases require special dietary attention.

Make Well - fruit — 'Regional', 'seasonal' and 'organic' are key words when it comes to a healthy diet to fight Lyme disease.

Should patients undergoing Lyme treatment change their diet permanently, or is it a temporary measure?

A healthy diet should always be maintained permanently. Many patients will also realise that changing dietary habits makes them actually feel better in the long run, so many also want to stick to the healthier diet afterwards.

How does a healthy diet affect our immune system?

In a healthy balanced diet, all nutrients, vitamins and trace elements are present. These all help to ensure proper cell function and immune surveillance. All these elements need to be present and balanced for the immune system to be strong enough to work ideally.

If people eat healthily before contracting Lyme disease, does it give them a better chance of fighting the disease?

Yes. Patients on a healthy diet (which includes exercise) are usually in better body and mind shape. They suffer less nutrition-related problems that weaken the body and immune system, and both a strong body and a healthy mind are required for a successful fight against a chronic disease.

Thinking outside the box is critically important when it comes to medicine. There are so many insidious disorders out there that sometimes conventional medicine doesn’t have all the answers, and other options are worth exploring. If you take a look back through the annals of medicinal history, you’ll see that holistic and naturalistic treatments feature prominently; they date back to China, where they were first developed many hundreds of years ago, and continue all the way through to contemporary medicine. Patients suffering from chronic diseases, especially tough-to-treat disorders like Lyme disease, can benefit hugely from these herbalistic treatments, combined with an antibiotic approach pioneered by contemporary medicine. The expert medical team behind Make Well utilises this approach in their range of all-natural herbal supplements, used regularly to support the treatment of chronic diseases such as Lyme.

Treating chronic disorders like Lyme disease is not an exact science, and requires a knowledgeable guiding hand. Antibiotics are a key component of this approach – after all, Lyme is a bacterial infection that can respond well to the right kind of antibiotics. The rate of success for this method is roughly 65%, and while this isn’t encouragingly high, Lyme disease is a relatively new disorder that the medical community is still getting to grips with. When a homeopathic approach was initiated as a treatment plan, the rate of success was a mere 30%, counting it out as an effective method of tackling the disease. However, when a herbalistic approach was taken, the results of success were surprisingly close to antibiotic treatment, within a few percent.

Make Well - antibiotics — Antibiotics are key in treating a chronic disease like Lyme, but can be hard on the body.

Many clinics treating Lyme disease primarily favour herbal supplements treatment, supported by a minority of antibiotics. When you discuss the effects of Lyme, you’re mainly talking about the reaction of the immune system, which is responsible for most of the debilitating symptoms patients experience. The borrelia virus itself is not toxic to the body, but is especially adept at cloaking itself from the immune system, which leads to overcompensation from the body’s defence systems – ultimately resulting in chronic inflammation and numerous other problems. Herbal supplements are especially useful in aiding the treatment of these types of chronic disease symptoms, along with providing immunosuppression support, while antibiotics go straight for the offending bacteria. This can be effective if the patient has a particularly significant infection, but if the infection is inferior to the inflammation, antibiotics can be startlingly ineffective.

Another reason why herbal supplements are preferable is patients’ reactions to them. It’s no secret that antibiotics can severely debilitate a patient, no matter what they’re taking them for; they are, in essence, a form of attack in the body, aimed at being beneficial in the long run. There can be many issues caused by the continued use of antibiotics, not least of all the resistance that is built up to them in the body over a long period of time. Herbal treatment comes with no such drawbacks. There is generally good patient tolerance with little or no side effects. Herbal supplements can be expensive, but in the long run they also make more financial sense for patients; if antibiotics are unsuccessful, patients will definitely suffer from Lyme relapses, leading to more tests, diagnoses and rounds of antibiotics.

Make Well - herbal medicine — Herbal supplements and treatments can benefit those suffering from a chronic disease like Lyme.

The only drawback to herbal supplements is the length of time it takes to complete the treatment plan, which can be double or triple the prescribed time for antibiotics. However, when you factor in that antibiotics might not even be effective, this drawback becomes a minor issue. Lyme often comes with a host of co-infections; in its chronic disease form, there are no easy answers, and prolonged therapy is a must if there is to be any chance of regaining good health. Antibiotics might make a patient feel better in the short term, but without addressing the twin issues of inflammation and co-infection, relapses are common. Herbal supplements can be customised to fight both sides of Lyme disease, and are prescribed as microbial or anti-inflammatory, depending on the patient. The only true test of Lyme treatment success is sustained good health over a long period of time. Herbal supplements provide patients with the best chance of achieving that goal.

The final beneficial advantage that naturistic treatment has over antibiotics is the fact that different supplements can be used to target different symptoms. Sleep disturbances are a very common complaint when it comes to chronic Lyme disease; knowing a patient suffers from them, doctors can adjust the supplement plan to include specific herbs to combat this particular symptom. Another example is impaired liver function; again, a learned doctor can tackle that specific issue with certain herbal supplements, meaning that the patient can have a full treatment plan catered specifically to them.

Herbal treatment plans can be cultivated and customised from hundreds of available protocols, requiring very specialised experience to achieve correctly. This is why it’s important to always seek treatment from practitioners with extensive experience. It is important to think outside the box when treating chronic disease, and this line of thinking has helped improve patients’ conditions all over the world – and will continue to do so into the future.
