JULY 27, 2021 BORRELIA AND TREPONEMA

The Borrelia bacterium, which triggers the symptoms of Lyme, shares many qualities of other chronic infections and subsequent chronic inflammations with bacterium Treponema pallidum, the agent of syphilis and streptococcus. All of these infections can lead to autoimmune type sequalae after periods of unresolved chronic inflammatory processes.

Syphillis was once dubbed The Great Masquerader. I believe and know Lyme can be called by the same name

There are three stages of each disease - For Lyme: 1. Bull’s eye rash 2, Arthritis/ Joint involvement and 3 ) heart and brain; For Treponema 1) chancre ( skin lesion) 2. rash on bottom of feet 3) heart and brain involvement; These are very similar

There are many herbal protocols available for patient’s with Lyme. I utilize all of them rotating each protocol for 4-6 weeks Some include Reynoutria japonica (Knotweed),Dipsacus sylvestris (Teasel root) and Astragalus

Others include herbs discussed by Stephen Harrod Buhner in his two books Healing Lyme and Healing Lyme Disease Co- infections

I urge you to see a practitioner that has extensive knowledge of these herbs. There are other modalities as bee venom, anti microbial ( which are not conventional antibiotics ) and stem cell therapy

Until tomorrow
