One of the best diet and GI health presentations i've seen, a huge amount of useful information.


Ignoring gut health can lead to Lyme disease treatment failure. In this presentation from the May, 2014 "Symposium on Tick-borne Diseases", Dr. Sunjya Schweig explains how Lyme and other tick-borne diseases can adversely affect the gut, and how to heal the gut for good health.

Thank you.

I do believe that our present diet (Wahls/PerfectHealthDiet) is an essential part of our continuing remission.

Another great learning tool (this time an article) for Lyme & the gut - also mentioned in the video posted above:

My gut gets angry, when I try to think too much. I wish I could give it the yummies it needs.

I'm hungry, for food and flora, it cries.

So do Lyme patients treat the gut first or Lyme first? Or together? I have both issues and was give a ton of supplements for gut but she's not LLMD so do I need to find an LLMD that will tell me what supplements will counteract the Lyme supplements?

Thanks for sharing, mpost!!

Depending on the severity of their issues, some patients do opt to treat the gut first. Just so you know, not all LLMD's make specific supplement recommendations...LLND's yes (possibly ;)
