Episode 44: The Lyme Solution: A conversation with Dr. Darin Ingels

After suffering through a lengthy Lyme infection himself (with
classic presentation), which initially responded to antibiotics but
didn’t resolve the infection, Dr. Darin Ingels went on a years-long
quest to recover, returning to naturopathic principles and
discovering essential less-used protocols. The results are in his
book: The Lyme Solution: A 5-Part Plan to Fish the Inflammatory
Autoimmune Response and Beat Lyme Disease (Penguin Random House),
and he has been treating patients with Lyme and co-infections
successfully since then. In this clinical pearl dense podcast, Dr.
Ingels pulls from his experience as a clinical microbiologist by
training, to share what he is doing today in practice – from labs
that work and those that don’t, using immunotherapy, the
association with mold allergy and mycotoxicity, to botanical
protocols and when to use antibiotics. While he doesn’t use the
word “functional,” it’s clear that his approach to Lyme embraces a
full functional approach, and that addressing the whole person, and
their environment, is essential to recovery.
