The following four reports came from a small trial with patients who took TaurImmuneTM-Fatigue (with 6X Taurox) for about 6 weeks.
- Patient CD reported consistent decreases in various aspects of fatigue, particularly mental, as well as decreased joint pain, rash/skin problems and cramping during period. Her sleep improved and her interest in sex increased. Her cold symptoms were milder than she expected.
- Patient SR reported consistent decreases in all aspects of fatigue, as well as decreased muscle and joint pain anxiety headaches. Her concentration/thinking; sleep, flexibility/mobility, motor coordination, appetite, PMS, and libido all improved.
- Patient AH reported reduced aches and pains, decreased allergy severity and reduced mental and physical fatigue (but not fatigue related to ability to function). She had improved concentration and sleep and increased interest in sex. Some responses were inconsistent and there was only one follow-up for the month.
- Patient SK consistently reported all aspects of fatigue were greatly reduced, especially mental fatigue. Pain (muscle and “other”), anxiety, depression, asthma and upper respiratory symptoms decreased. Motor skills, flexibility, and sleep also improved. She did not experience benefit in many of these until after 3rd week of TaurImmuneTM Fatigue (see figure below). Changes in pain were not attributed to Taurox.
In addition to the quality of life parameters graphed, SK had similar reductions from week 3 to 4 in: anxiety, muscle pain, other pain, motor skill/coordination problems
The following is feedback from 4 of 6 Lyme patients who were part of a Lyme support group. Patients had chronic symptoms that were unresponsive to long-term antibiotics and took “Taurox SB 6X” (equivalent to TaurImmuneTM Fatigue) for about 6 weeks.
- Participant #1 had antibiotic treatment for about 1 year with some improvement, then a relapse. Prior to Taurox, the fatigue was incapacitating. Estimated 80% improvement in energy, concentration/thinking, ability to perform daily activities; estimated 40% decrease in “malaise”. No effect on pain or allergies.
- Participant #2 had antibiotic treatment for about 5 months, then various nutraceuticals. While no response to Taurox in the first 5 weeks, then there was an estimated 80% decrease in fatigue and 40% improvement in concentration/thinking, ability to perform daily activities, and allergies.
- Participant #3 had antibiotic treatments for 8 months in 1999, then another month in 2000. Lyme relapse in 2002 treated with antibiotics. Had moderate levels of fatigue and other symptoms which were improved by about 25% or more: overall fatigue, aches and pains, brain fog, allergies, ability to perform daily activities.
- Participant #4 had antibiotic treatment for about 1 year, then various nutraceuticals for about 8 months. There was some improvement, but he still had moderate symptoms – fatigue, muscle weakness, pain, difficulty concentrating/thinking. Otherwise generally healthy. After Taurox, he reported no change in most areas except a moderate improvement (estimated 25%) in concentration/thinking/brain fog.
NOTE: The 5th patient did not provide us with any data and the 6th patient had to discontinue using Taurox because of its alcohol content. (The Taurox product line now has two products that do not contain alcohol.)
