Japanese Knotweed and Lyme Disease, with Herbalist Jean Schneider, Episode #26

Hello Healers,

Learn more about Lyme disease and the natural plant healers, in Part II of a discussion with herbalist, Jean Schneider.  

Jean healed from a severe infection of Lyme disease using herbalism and now helps others heal from Lyme and autoimmune illnesses, using the plants of Nature, including one of her favorites Japanese knotweed (Polygonum cuspidatum). 

In Part I, Jean mentioned that the spread of this plant has followed the same trajectory as the epidemic of Lyme Disease. There are now more than 2 million new cases of Lyme a year. 

Jean asks what if we had been eating this plant when it came to the West, as Asian cultures had been doing, to prevent the damage of Lyme?
