Japanese Knotweed is a cornerstone herb in natural Lyme disease support, most notably in the Buhner Protocol. It is one of the few herbs known to cross the blood-brain barrier, making it particularly valuable for addressing neurological symptoms associated with Lyme-including brain fog, cognitive difficulty, and nerve pain. It targets Borrelia (lyme bacteria) directly while simultaneously reducing the inflammatory response that drives many of Lyme’s most debilitating symptoms. It also helps protect the joints, tissues, and neurological structures that Borrelia (lyme bacteria) commonly attacks.
Effective for: Lyme, Bartonella (supportive), Neurological manifestations across co-infections, Systemic inflammation from any co-infection
