Mycoplasma Pneumoniae Treatment

Question by S. (Anonymous) on 12/29/2011

Dear Ted, I have read and used many of your remedies from earth clinic.com, with favorable results. I am hopeful that you can offer suggestions on curing my 10 year old child (5' tall, 95 lbs.) She has had two episodes of cerebellitis in 12 months, 11 months apart. She has tested positive for mycoplasma pneumonia with both episodes.

Your earth clinic posts have recommended borax, aspirin, and breathing sea salt steam, but none give a timeframe as to how long to treat.

Her neurologist wants to treat this as an autoimmune disease and believes that the mycoplasma goes away on it's own. I believe that she has had the mycoplasma all along, well over 1 year. She has had a non productive cough all along (a hallmark of M.pneumonia), and her last hospitalization revealed a slow heartbeat during sleep (51). She plays soccer but is NOT a highly trained athlete so I found this disturbing.

I want to cure her and hopefully prevent a third brain swell. Please give dosage suggestions AND recommended time frame for remedies. Thank you.

All mycoplasma, whether ulcerative colitis, tuberculosis, Crohn's disease, and even autoimmune disease responds favorably to borax, B3, molybdenum, chromium, alkalization, chlorophyll, some vanadium, methylene blue, and to a certain extent humic acid a little where the solution is light brown, MSM (methylsulfonylmethane), and sulfur supplements (N acetyl cysteine), some vitamin C... the list goes on. In fact the most common forms of autoimmune disease I see is actually fungus caused, and they grow inside the cells and that's why the antibiotics don't work or may make the conditions worse, as the antibiotics are produced from the fungus also.

The important supplements for mycoplasma in general, whether they are tuberculosis, paratuberculosis, or other subspecies are sodium molybdate, hydrogen peroxide, bromelain, unripe papaya, and at least sodium bicarbonate, although I tend to favor sodium citrate and potassium citrate for alkalization.

Sodium molybdate I supplement at between 10 mg per day to 50 mg per day. I tend to take somewhere in the middle, such as 25 mg. Borax remedy is 1/8 tsp mixed in 1 liter of drinking water. Hydrogen peroxide uses the 3% solution, one capful is mixed in 1 liter of drinking water. Unripe papaya is taken as somtom (Thai food ) of any amount or you can take it as salads but without the salad dressing, that's why somtom is more ideal, it doesn't contain fat and vegetable oils. In fact you try to avoid things that contain especially heated vegetable oils such as french fries and potato chips. If you have sodium bicarbonate, it would be fine since sodium citrate and potassium citrate are not readily available. The potassium bicarbonate and potassium citrate is more deadly to the mycobacterium or limits their growth faster. The timeframe ideally is between 1 to 3 months for the treatment.

However it appears that coughing has to be treated. The one thing I found that helps coughing and helps the mycobacterium are SSKI, lugols and N acetyl cysteine. SSKI is given at 1/16 teaspoon per 1 liter water mixed in with the borax at 1/8 teaspoon if you want. But if it is severe enough, I may take lugol's 5 drops to stop it. N acetyl cysteine has similar effect and is strongly needed, the usual dose is 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon twice a day. B3 niacinamide is also a commonly used supplement in case of mycoplasmas, at bedtime at least 500 mg. During the day time is given at 250 mg x 3 times a day to help kill the mycoplasmas.

This is just the basic remedy.

Ted, are you talking 50 mg or 50 mcg of molybdate and if mg, are you talking 100% moly or 30% moly

Does anyone know Ted's recommended dosage for sodium citrate and potassium citrate per day in treating mycoplasma as described above

Just wondering if anyone knows the dosage for Sodium Molybdate and for Potassium Citrate for Mycoplasma, thanks if you can help.

I have an almost 16 year old daughter who has tested positive for mycoplasma pneumonia for 3 years now. We have been working with a natural path doctor and have tried so many supplements. I came across hydrogen peroxide therapy a year or more ago but the docto seems to think it s not safe and recommends against it. I have been revisiting the idea of using food grade hydrogen peroxide because her most current blood work is still showing high igg and igm levels of mycoplasma pneumonia and higher than before igg levels of EBV, cytomegalovirus, and brucella. I see your post here and other posts suggesting hydrogen peroxide and borax. She has no cough symptoms and has not had cough symptoms for a while now. Her stomach issues and light headed mess have improved quite a bit over this time, but she still struggles the most with no energy and sometimes feels tightness/swollen in fingers and toes and has ringing in ears and sometimes muffled sound. I have reviewed your suggestions but this is a lot to follow and am wondering if you have a simplified protocol for a 16 year old to follow that can finally get rid of this infection Do you suggest soaking in bath with borax or hydrogen peroxide or running 3% hydrogen peroxide in humidifier Should she drink borax one day and hydrogen peroxide a different day, or drink both mixes on the same day or just stick with drinking one And should she drink it with baking soda I d really appreciate a simplified protocol that I could help her to follow. Or do you have a link for this Thank you
