Co-Infections with Lyme Borreliosis

Confirmations are coming in from the medical and alternative health communities about many co-infections traveling with Bb. The term Lyme disease refers to a complex illness consisting of several co-infections. The list includes – Babesias (parasites), Ehrlichia, tularemia ( bacteria), Colorado tick fever,(virus), Leptospirosis (sprirochete) and many others. All of these must be treated. VEMMA is the best multi-purpose product that fights all of these pathogens at the same time. It also provides adequate vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and other necessary nutrients.Testing for Lyme BorreliosisBb has devised ingenious way to elude detection by our immune system-and laboratory tests don’t fare much better. The Center for disease control says that a clinical diagnosis is based on history and a physical exam -lab tests may be used to confirm but not rule out the disease.The Western Blot blood test or the ELISA test is presently used by most doctors. These tests are looking for antibodies which the body isn’t actively making against Bb so the tests are inadequate. Dr. JoAnn Whitaker has developed the Q-RIBb test which identifies the spirochete shaped bacteria. It is presently going through FDA approval. It makes more sense to be adequately protecting yourself from many pathogens that can be infiltrating your body. Everyone will be in contact with someone who is carrying Bb. Don’t wait until you are sick with one of the 300 conditions connected to Lymes – be active in protecting yourself.
