Dear Patients, as most of you know, I retired from clinical practice last September of 2023 due to severe vision loss in both eyes. While my impaired vision has made it difficult to see patients, my retirement has given me time to focus on improving my line of supplements, which are now available at www.Formula4Health.com &
www.formulaforhealth.online/Gut-Health-Formula

I have been busy designing updated formulas that result in better intestinal absorption and the elimination of unnecessary additives typically found in many health supplements brands.

While many of our new formulas are currently available, such as Gut Cleanse, Parasite Kill, PancrePlus, TheaGABA, Vitamin D, etc, we are still awaiting the arrival of other classics, like Optimal Liver Support, DIM, and an updated Serenity.

Like us at our page Formula 4 Health and sign up for our newsletter at www.Formula4Health.com/pages/signup to stay updated on new product arrivals and to receive a signup discount.

I am grateful for the opportunity God gave me to be instrumental in helping thousands of you through your healing process. I hope that my new formulas will help you stay healthy.
Sincerely,
Dr. Sponaugle

After being misdiagnosed by over 40+ specialists and told she was "crazy" by doctors, Nicole, a former healthcare worker, understands the frustration of being dismissed by world-renowned medical institutions like Duke University, Dana Farber, and Brigham Young.

"Anyone who has been down this road or is just starting this journey, it is gut-wrenching and will take everything you got in your arsenal to fight."

In this video, she sheds light on her decades-long struggle with misdiagnosed Lyme disease and the challenges she faced in finding proper treatment before finding the Sponaugle Wellness Institute.

We are delighted to share a heartwarming moment as we bid farewell to a remarkable patient who has completed her treatment program at Sponaugle Wellness Institute.

Donna came to Sponaugle Wellness, suffering from chronic Lyme Disease, Bartonella, and mold toxicity.

After seeing countless doctors, who misdiagnosed her, she found Dr. Sponaugle, who ran advanced diagnostics to create a personalized treatment plan.

Under the expert care of the SWI team & Dr. Masghati, Donna found healing from the detox treatment protocols put together by Dr. Sponaugle, as well as SOT therapy to address Bartonella and underlying viral infections.

Interstitial cystitis (IC), also known as painful bladder syndrome, is a chronic condition that causes individuals to experience constant bladder pain, urinary frequency, and urgency. The symptoms of IC can be severely debilitating and often mirror those of a urinary tract infection, except that the discomfort does not subside with antibiotics.

Interestingly, research has shown that there may be a connection between interstitial cystitis and Lyme disease, a tick-borne illness caused by the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi.

Several studies and clinical observations have suggested a possible link between interstitial cystitis and Lyme disease. Dr. Rick Sponaugle, an integrative physician who treats Lyme Disease, Mold Toxicity, and Environmental Disease at his clinic Sponaugle Wellness Institute in Oldsmar, FL, has seen....

Before finding Sponaugle Wellness Institute, Carol was treated for six years by the best and brightest LLMDs in New Jersey and New York.

Over those six years, she was prescribed multiple antibiotics. Most significant is the fact that she was prescribed four grams of IV Rocephin daily for a total of three years.

Unfortunately, the Rocephin was ineffective in killing the massive Bartonella infection seen within biofilm formation on her blood smear.

Leaving Carol with severe gut dysbiosis and facing countless complications from the antibiotics, she turned to Dr. Sponaugle to heal the damage and address the root cause of why the antibiotics did not work to address her infections.

Read's Carol story and why biofilm needs to be addressed before IV antibiotics are administered.

The Last Three Years Of Excessive Antibiotic Treatment Rendered Carol Essentially Bedridden. Carol’s story is a good case study for the concept that antibiotics are ineffective, if not worthless, in Lyme patients who have developed significant biofilm.

After Chronic Lyme disease, patients develop antibiotic-induced gut toxicity, and mycotoxins and bacterial endotoxins migrate from the gut to the brain.

These toxins are lipophilic and fatty in structure, so they are drawn to other fatty tissues on a molecular level. After migrating away from the gut, they deposit in the fattiest organ, our brain, which is 60 percent fat.

These neurotoxins inflame the brain’s white matter, the insulation on brain neurons called myelin, adding to the cumulative level of neurotoxicity, which is already significant from an accumulation of toxins in Lyme & Mold Toxicity patients.

Antibiotic-induced neurotoxicity causes further suppression of the immune system by “shutting down” the electrical current in the brain.

This is problematic because the brain’s electrical activity stimulates cytokine activity. Cytokines are the chemical messengers that activate our natural killer cells.

The role of antibiotics in Lyme disease treatment is undeniable, yet their prolonged use can lead to unintended consequences primarily the impact on gut health.

GAD enzymes play a critical role in maintaining the balance of neurotransmitters in the brain, ensuring optimal functioning and mental health.

Mold toxicity, caused by exposure to toxic molds such as trichothecene, can lead to GAD enzyme deficiency and subsequent neurological disorders, including insomnia, anxiety, depression, and chronic fatigue.

In response to trichothecene exposure, the GAD enzyme is shut down, resulting in glutamate being converted to GABA, causing a neuroexcitatory state.

Mold toxins, or mycotoxins, are harmful substances produced by certain types of mold.

One area of the brain that may be particularly susceptible to the harmful effects of mold toxins is the cingulate gyrus.

The cingulate gyrus is an important part of the brain's limbic system, which plays a crucial role in regulating emotions, memory, and cognitive functions.

Dr. Sponaugle would like to share a study from the University of California Davis that is both alarming and thought-provoking relative to the exposure of Bartonella to American Troops serving in Iraq.

The study reveals that 47% of the domestic dogs tested in Iraq had an active Bartonella infection. The infection rate is potentially much higher because the antibody testing they used has far more false negatives than testing with actual blood smears.

Dr. Sponaugle is happy to inform you that we are now offering Supportive Oligonucleotide Therapy (SOT) as one of our many treatment modalities for viral infections and Lyme and its many coinfections.

This modality is essential for patients with viral etiologies, especially those in the Herpes/Epstein Barr family, as they all cause cancer, tend to infect the brain, and suppress natural killer cell production, making it more difficult to kill other viruses and bacteria like Lyme, Bartonella, etc.

At Sponaugle Wellness, we have seen fantastic progress with their use in our patients to address viral and bacterial infections, particularly Epstein-Barr virus, herpes hsv1/hsv2, tickborne infections, HPV, and other infections.

Parasites are more common than many people think. They’re often overlooked as a potential root cause of autoimmunity, colon disorders, allergies, unexplained pain, and many chronic health challenges.

Intestinal parasites are abnormal inhabitants of the GI tract that live off and have the potential to cause damage to their host, negatively impacting many aspects of health.

Although most parasite infections are localized within the GI tract, they can spread to other body parts such as the liver and bile ducts, heart, brain, lungs, pancreas, spleen, skin, oral cavity, and the GI tract.

Parasites also adhere to the gut wall creating biofilms, where they live and hide from the immune system. Bacteria, viruses, Lyme, and heavy metals can live inside the parasite too.

Parasitic infections are common in humans as parasites are found in food, particularly sushi and undercooked meats. Parasites can damage the gut of humans.
