YOU NEED A HEALTHY DIET TO RECOVER WELL FROM LYME AND OTHER CHRONIC ILLNESS

Dr. Ron Schmid is a naturopathic doctor. At one point he had Lyme disease and used diet to heal and keep Lyme under control. He realizes that we probably never totally eliminate all of the Lyme bacterium and that we need to remain vigilant when it comes to what we put in our mouths. In the two videos below, he discusses the type of diet he uses and a bit about his experience with Lyme disease. His two books are The Untold Story of Milk, Revised and Updated: The History, Politics and Science of Nature's Perfect Food: Raw Milk from Pasture-Fed Cows  AND  Traditional Foods Are Your Best Medicine: Improving Health and Longevity with Native Nutrition

Dr. Schmid advocates a diet rich in hig quality protein and animal fats and plenty of vegetables. I believe he advocates that most vegetables be eaten raw and fermented. Others who follow the research of Dr. Weston A Price feel that certain vegetables should also be cooked, to eliminate certain toxins and antinutrients. Personally, I am still researching as to what my optimal diet should be. What I like to do is to study information from many varied points of view and then pick out the parts that seem to make the most sense to me. Dr.Ron seems to have the same view. So....take a look and see what you think
