The Silver Lyming - Episode 18 with Patrick Slouck

Can you imagine eating your lunch and suddenly losing the ability to chew your food? This is exactly what happened to Patrick one day. He was eating food with his wife and lost the ability to finish chewing. All he really could do was fall face first into bed hoping it would pass since he did not have health insurance at the time. Sadly, it did not pass, and he went to the walk-in clinic the next day. When he removed his shirt, the doctor exclaimed that he has Lyme. This worried Patrick because it is a disease which he thought meant permanent. This put Patrick on a course to regain his health over the next two years. One night, he was watching TV and saw something about Gerson therapy which involved juicing. The story he saw was about Max Gerson's daughter who saved her eyesight with juicing, so Patrick felt compelled to start juicing. He began noticing improvements in his body and felt a lot younger almost overnight. Patrick started adding glyconutrients, which he expands on, and now actually sells because of how much they helped him and the people he shared them with. His company is Herbastat (herbastat.com) where he sells other herbs for a variety of uses such as running. Patrick now competes in triathlons after his bout with Lyme and being forced to heal himself. He started his own company and became the "Lyme Healer" (lymehealer.com) after Lyme and tick-borne illness forced him to stop working at his financial planning with the elderly that he was very passionate about. Gratefully, he has been able to find another way to support himself and his family. Lyme can take EVERYTHING from people so pay attention and do your best to prevent contact with ticks in the first place. Patrick has been infected more than once which sadly is not uncommon. Ticks are most prevalent in the area he lives, but are found EVERYWHERE. Your best bet is to check yourself, your kids, and your pets daily. Use repellent and protect your property to the best of your ability. For more info on keeping your property and self safe, visit palyme.org.
