Linda’s comment: Were you aware that formaldehyde converted from the free methyl alcohol embalms living tissue and damages DNA?? Most people don’t realize how dangerous that Aspartame can be. There has been a rise in brain cancers, which we know according to Dr Russell Blaylock, MD, a renowned neuro surgeon. Yet the food industry continue to poison people. However, all the blame can’t be put on the food industry. WE the people need to take the responsibility for buying this deadly neuro poison. If people would stop purchasing the products that contain Aspartame then the industry would change, after all they are in it to make money and don’t give a damn about our health.
I’m as aspartame survivor and trust me people it was UGLY…Listen up and start doing research. Yes we can thank Rumsfeld for making sure this deadly toxin came to market. Right after he slammed it through the FDA, he went to work for Searle….<shaking head>….AND WE T HE PEOPLE let it happen. STOP PURCHASING PRODUCTS WITH THIS DEADLY POISON IN IT…This will get the industry attention. Get into their pocketbook and they will make changes.
The good news is the FIGHT protocol will help you to detox this deadly poison and restore your body back to healthy. I have had tremendous success with the FIGHT protocol and continue to have great results. Don’t delay, start today and you too can enjoy good health again.
What comes to mind is the scripture in Jeremiah that the wicked will
sleep a perpetual sleep and never awaken. Aspartame Disease is now a
heinous global plague causing sickness and death throughout the
world. The history and toxicity of aspartame has reached critical
mass as consumers avoid it like the plague it is. For this reason,
and to erase history, Ajinomoto has changed the name to AminoSweet.
This itself is deceiving since it’s the deadly free methyl alcohol
that sweetens, not the amino acids. Be warned!
Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato, carried by Ixodes ticks, is one of the
most significant human pathogens responsible for Lyme disease. As there
is no standardized method of polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for
detection and identification of spirochetes’ DNA, we carried out a
comparative analysis using a set of complementary primers for three
regions in the genomic DNA of these bacteria (genes fla, rrs and
non-coding rrs-rrlA region). DNA extracted from 579 Ixodes ricinus ticks
was subjected to nested PCR. DNA of the examined spirochetes was
detected in 43 (7.4 %) lysates when we used fla gene as molecular
marker, in 7 (1.2 %), using primers complementary to the rrs gene, and
in 12 (2.1 %) lysates complementary to the non-coding rrs-rrlA sequence.
Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis, based on fla
gene, helped identify species from the B. burgdorferi sensu lato (B.
burgdorferi sensu stricto, B. afzelii, B. garinii, B. valaisiana),
detect co-infections, and also identify B. miyamotoi. Therefore the fla
gene is the most sensitive and specific molecular marker for the
detection and identification of Borrelia spirochetes in I. ricinus.
Background: Morphea, granuloma annulare (GA) and lichen sclerosus et atrophicans (LSA) have also been suggested to be linked to Borrelia infection. Previous studies based on serologic data or detection of Borrelia by immunohistochemistry and polymerase chain reaction (PCR) reported contradictory results. Thus, we examined skin biopsies of morphea, GA and LSA by PCR to assess the prevalence of Borrelia DNA in an endemic area and to compare our results with data in the literature.
Methods: Amplification of DNA sequences of Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato by nested PCR from formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded skin biopsies of morphea, GA and LSA, followed by automated sequencing of amplification products. PCR-based studies on Borrelia species in these disorders published until July 2009 were retrieved by a literature search. Continued
Central Role of the Holliday Junction Helicase RuvAB in vlsE Recombination and Infectivity of Borrelia burgdorferi
Lyme disease is the most prevalent tick-borne infection in North America and Eurasia. It is caused by the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi and is transmitted to humans via the bite of infected ticks. These spirochetes can cause both acute and chronic infection and inflammation of the skin, joints, heart, and central nervous system. The persistence of infection despite the presence of an active immune response is dependent upon antigenic variation of VlsE, a 35 kDa surface-exposed lipoprotein. A large number of different VlsE variants are present in the host simultaneously and are generated by recombination of the vlsE gene with adjacent vls silent cassettes. To try to identify factors important in vlsE recombination and immune evasion, we selected mutants in genes involved in DNA recombination and repair and screened them for infectivity and vlsE recombination. Mutants in genes encoding RuvA and RuvB (which act together to promote the exchange of strands between two different DNA molecules) had reduced infectivity and greatly diminished vlsE recombination. In immunodeficient mice, ruvA mutants retained full infectivity, and no vlsE recombination was detected. Our findings reinforce the importance of vlsE variation in immune evasion and persistent infection. Continued
Encephalopathy is like fine art: Most people know it when they see it, but there is very little agreement on how to define it. At the 14th International Lyme Disease Conference, Brian A. Fallon, MD,[1] of Columbia University and the New York State Psychiatric Institute, New York, NY, tried to do just that. More importantly, he described the different ways one can define encephalopathy, the strengths and limitations of each approach, and significantly, what other aspects of life can give the impression of encephalopathy where none exists. First, one must evaluate patients with persistent Lyme encephalopathy by asking the following questions:
Is the diagnosis correct?
Are there comorbid psychiatric disorders that could be treated better? Does the patient have a psychogenic medical illness? What was the patient’s response to prior antibiotics?
Was previous treatment adequate? How long was the course, and what was the route of administration? Was there a subsequent relapse

Linda’s Comment: It amazes me that in the following publications do we find any suggestions about reducing our total body burden of pathogens and toxins. It is a MUST that Lymies begin to reduce their total body burden of pathogens and toxins in order to begin addressing Lyme, Lyme Arthritis, Arthritis, and other chronic illness we see with Lyme patients. Some people choose antibiotics…..I personally never went near antibiotics. My whole detox and healing program was using anti-microbials, alternative medicine, alternative modalities, NO GMO foods, NO sugars, NO fast foods, NO soda’s, NO caffeine, NO coffee and I ate and still do eat organic foods. I also have used a PhotonGenie since 2001 and use it daily. I like it better than Rife, as I don’t have to worry about settings, I just turn it on and go. I even sleep in mine. The critters we Lymies fight LOVE heavy metals and especially GMO foods.
There are also some foods that you don’t want to eat if you are having symptoms of Arthritis, however, it is more important to get rid of the GMO, sugars, coffee and soda’s to reduce the inflammation and pain. The great thing about the fight program is you are dissolving biofilms and reducing inflammation on a daily basis. So much of our pain comes from inflammation.
I of course use many more things with my lifelong daily detox protocol. If you can get IV chelation and do weekly colonics you can move things along faster. However, you can start the program one step at a time and move at your own pace. This is one protocol that must be done as suggested to get the full benefit of wellness. The first three months are your toughest, but after that it is a breeze. Yes, ever so often you have a day or two like you did when you first started, but I tell folks, it is like peeling an onion. As you reach a new level you will have a couple of days where you keep your bathroom close. At the end of 60 to 90 days and you begin to feel your life coming back to you, you will be very pleased that you began this journey. Feel free to ask questions and I will share my journey with you. Just remember JUST SAY NO TO GMO!!Continued
