Dr. Luka Kovac and Dr. Nelly Furtado’s Integrative Prescription for Lyme Disease

Note: This is a fictional collaboration between Dr. Luka Kovac (of ER) and singer-healer Dr. Nelly Furtado. This “prescription” blends holistic and nutritional strategies, not a replacement for antibiotics or clinical treatment when necessary.

🧂Salt Therapy

• Celtic Sea Salt or Himalayan Pink Salt
  → Rich in trace minerals, helps cellular hydration and pH balance.
  → Suggested use: 1/4 tsp in warm lemon water upon waking.
• Salt & Vitamin C Protocol (used in some Lyme circles):
  → 1 gram salt + 1 gram vitamin C, 3x/day (build up slowly).
  → Controversial: May help detox, but must be done with supervision.

💧Types of Water

• Structured Water
  → Mimics spring water, better cellular absorption.
• Spring Water (low mineral content)
  → Avoid tap water due to fluoride and chlorine.
• Electrolyte water
  → Replenishes lost minerals during detox and herxing.

🥬Foods to Focus On

• Wild blueberries (anti-inflammatory, neuroprotective)
• Garlic & onions (natural antibiotics, sulfur-rich detox agents)
• Broccoli sprouts (sulforaphane activates detox pathways)
• Pumpkin seeds (zinc, anti-parasitic)
• Cilantro & parsley (heavy metal detox)
• Fermented foods: sauerkraut, kimchi (gut microbiome restoration)
• Grass-fed beef liver or desiccated liver caps (B12, iron, A, K2)
• Organic eggs, salmon roe, avocados, beets

🌿Herbs & Botanicals

• Cat’s Claw (Uncaria tomentosa) – anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial
• Japanese Knotweed – resveratrol-rich, reduces inflammation
• Andrographis – supports immune response, often used in Buhner protocol
• Teasel Root – supports neurological repair
• Sarsaparilla – binds endotoxins, reduces die-off symptoms
• Astragalus – immune booster (early-stage Lyme only)

---

🫖Teas

• Dandelion root tea – supports liver, gallbladder detox
• Burdock root tea – blood purifier, helps skin and lymph
• Nettle leaf tea – mineral-rich, anti-inflammatory
• Chaga mushroom tea – antioxidant, supports immunity
• Lemon balm tea – calms the nervous system

---

🍊Juices

• Celery juice (organic, fresh) – gut-healing, mineralizing
• Cucumber & mint juice – cooling, hydrates inflamed tissues
• Carrot–ginger–turmeric juice – anti-inflammatory, immune support
• Beet–lemon–apple juice – liver support and gentle detox
• Wheatgrass shots – chlorophyll, alkalizing

---

💊Vitamins & Minerals

• Vitamin C (liposomal preferred) – antioxidant, collagen support
• Vitamin D3 + K2 – immune modulation
• Magnesium (glycinate or malate) – for nerve pain, fatigue
• Zinc picolinate – supports immune system
• Selenium – essential for thyroid and glutathione production
• B-Complex (methylated) – supports energy, nerve repair
• Omega-3s (EPA/DHA) – reduces inflammation

---

🌱Roots & Adaptogens

• Ashwagandha – balances adrenal fatigue
• Rhodiola rosea – stamina, brain fog reduction
• Licorice root – supports cortisol balance
• Ginger root – anti-inflammatory, digestive aid
• Turmeric root (with black pepper) – curcumin for inflammation

💬 Final Words from Dr. Luka and Dr. Nelly:

Dr. Luka: “Lyme hides deep. It’s like a Balkan war in the body—guerrilla warfare. We fight it with terrain management: detox, restore, and rebuild.”

Dr. Nelly: “Healing is a remix. Food, song, sunlight, and soul. Trust your cells—they want to dance again.”
