Among the various species of hard ticks, Ixodes ricinus is the most frequently
found tick throughout Europe. As with other ixodid ticks, the developmental
cycle runs through three stages. In each stage a blood meal is required in order
to develop to the next stage. Ixodes ricinus has been found to feed on more than
300 different vertebrate species. Usually, larval ticks feed on small mammals
such as mice and become infected with various microorganisms and viruses, of
which some are substantial pathogens to humans. The pathogens remain in the tick
during molting and are thus transstadially transmitted to the next developmental
stage. Pathogens transmitted to humans are the agents of Lyme borreliosis, the
tick-borne encephalitis virus, Rickettsia species, Anaplasma phagocytophilum,
occasionally Francisella tularensis, and protozoal Babesia species. Within the
scope of an EU project Ixodes ricinus ticks from all federal states of Austria
were searched by means of PCR methods for bacterial pathogens such as Anaplasma
phagocytophilum, Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato, Coxiella burnetii, Ehrlichia
spp., Francisella tularensis, Rickettsia spp., and protozoal Babesia.
Additionally, the prevalence of Bartonella spp. in this tick species was also
determined. Besides the singular detection of Coxiella burnetii and Francisella
tularensis in one tick collection site the overall prevalence of Anaplasma
phagocytophilum, borreliae, rickettsae and babesiae in Ixodes ricinus amounted
to 15%, 14%, 6% and surprising 36% and 51%, respectively. Bartonellae were
detected in about 7%.

Traditional Chinese medicine commands a unique position among all traditional medicines because of its 5000 years of history. Our own interest in natural products from traditional Chinese medicine was triggered in the 1990s, by artemisinin‐type sesquiterpene lactones from Artemisia annua L. As demonstrated in recent years, this class of compounds has activity against malaria, cancer cells, and schistosomiasis. Interestingly, the bioactivity of artemisinin and its semisynthetic derivative artesunate is even broader and includes the inhibition of certain viruses, such as human cytomegalovirus and other members of the Herpesviridae family (e.g., herpes simplex virus type 1 and Epstein‐Barr virus), hepatitis B virus, hepatitis C virus, and bovine viral diarrhea virus. Analysis of the complete profile of the pharmacological activities and molecular modes of action of artemisinin and artesunate and their performance in clinical trials will further elucidate the full antimicrobial potential of these versatile pharmacological tools from nature.

Yet another tragedy of a young teen becoming paralyzed from taking the H1N1 flu shot!!  Of course the family is devastated from their decision of giving their beautiful 16 yr old daughter the H1N1 flu vaccine.  I strongly suggest that you do thorough research on the devastation that many families are going through.

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!!
