Reviews for Otoba (formerly Banderol) 30ml
I have been taking Banderol and Cats Claw bark from The Finchley Clinic since beginning of September for the Lyme related issues of joint pain,fatigue,muscle weakness,depression etc. I am pleased that there is some improvement and the symptoms have lessened somewhat. I recommend buying the 60 ml size Banderol as it's much more economical in the long run. I have found that it's vital to detox the body as much as you can,drinking lots of filtered water; using Chlorella powder to clean the toxins out and I have regular enemas as well and exercising to move the energy. Cats claw is great for the pain too.
Over the years I've had various diagnoses of Borreliosis,systemic candida,Epstein Barr virus,parasites and other bacterial issues that come with Lyme. I've started taking Banderol 13 drops 3 times a day for a couple of weeks and I feel so much better. It's worth mentioning that I take other supplements: Chlorella, to detox the body,a high probiotic(3 billion minimum) Cats claw bark caps for immune system, Magnesium for muscles/joints. I also take Cranberry caps as I've discovered that the Lyme and Candida together infects the bladder and U-tract causing urgency and burning. Oxygen elements max has been a lifesaver for upping the energy levels and Maca powder too. But overall I would recommend Banderol specifically for Lyme and the infections that come with it.
Am grateful for the Finchley Clinic's products.
I should also have emphasised in my previous review, the importance of detoxifying and drinking lots of water! The toxins produced from die-off are what cause one to feel bad - headaches & other aches & pains, lowered mood etc., which is why I was recommending going slowly, to keeps those reactions at a bearable level. Really listen to your body, and go at the speed that your body is comfortable with.
Burbur and Parsley are recommended for helping detoxify & reducing die off reactions. I personally found Dandelion tea to be most effective, and was most amused when I realised that that is of course 'Wild Endive'!
This is brilliant 'stuff', but please make sure that you go very very slowly with it. This is speaking from personal experience. Start with one drop per day only & really monitor the effects. If you seem to get a strong reaction, try it only every other day, or drink only half the glass of water. Or even stop for a few days. Only increase the dosage when your reaction to the current amount is stable. If you feel really dreadful - STOP! It is not worth just persevering with it, but do try Samento instead. And perhaps retry the Banderol after you've reached the higher dose of Samento. I found Samento milder, but I also started that much more slowly & under the supervision of a medical doctor.
Latest studies found excellent results when alternating Samento and Banderol week by week, finding that the two combined killed all forms of borrelia: spirochete, L-form and cystic colonies.
