What I Learned From the Chronic Lyme Disease Summit

April 14, 2016 by Tricia Leave a Comment

I don’t know about you but I was blown away by the Chronic Lyme Disease Summit.  I hope you were able to listen in a bit and glean from these amazing experts.

Normally I wouldn’t have had the time to listen in to a 7-day summit but we were having the basement worked on so I was stuck at home.

It was just too loud to do anything else so I put in my earbuds and carried my iPhone and notebook around the house while I cleaned and took care of things.

I was impressed not only with the fascinating research but also the diversity in the types of experts who were brought on the summit.

At the same time, I felt like there was so much information that if I wasn’t careful I could easily get overwhelmed.

I broke it down into the most important key points and I found that as diverse as the speakers were many of them said exactly the same thing.

  • Lyme is an epidemic. (The CDC states there are 300,000 new cases each year which is grossly inaccurate.)
  • It’s never just Lyme, meaning many pathogens are usually transmitted at the same time.
  • Ticks are not the only vectors of Lyme; biting flies, mosquitoes, spiders and other biting insects also transmit the disease.
  • Tests for Lyme are terrible and a waste of time.
  • Most diseases are caused by bacterial infections and many are caused by Lyme.
  • A compromised immune system allows the bacteria to take hold in the body.
  •  Factors such as environment, toxic chemicals in our food and household products, GMO’s and electromagnetic fields (emf’s) are devastating our bodies.
  • Health begins in the gut and the only way to get better is to start working on healing the gut.
  • It is critical to get sugar out of the diet.
  • Physicians must look at the whole person and not the lab tests.

Honestly, there was so much depth to this summit so I don’t want you to think this was it, but these are pretty important points.  You can find more detailed notes on my Abounding In Hope With Lyme Facebook Page.
