Some people will develop a resistance to antibiotics, which may result in problems such as chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, and autoimmune disease after Lyme disease treatment. …

Some ticks carry Lyme bacteria, a corkscrew bacteria called a spirochete. These bacteria can penetrate many different tissues and evade your immune system by hiding in tissues without immune cells. [Dr. Berg says “they can penetrate into tissues that no other bacteria can get into.”]

A tick bite usually causes redness that could develop into a bull’s eye rash, a common indicator of Lyme disease. [Dr. Berg says he had a bull’s eye rash twice.]

Corkscrew bacteria can invade the heart and cause palpitations. They also have a defense mechanism that can keep them alive even after they’ve been engulfed by your immune cells. Spirochetes downgrade your receptors for vitamin D [by 50 times, Dr. Berg says], the most important vitamin of the entire immune system.

Vitamin D strengthens your monocytes and makes them more efficient. It also increases antimicrobial peptides that help kill spirochetes. [Dr. Berg says these peptides will be in control, and our regular immune system will be in the back seat.] …

[Dr. Berg says “I take a tremendous amount of vitamin D on a regular basis. It think it’s the vitamin D that keeps my immune system strengthened. It literally bulletproofs me against problems like Lyme. … If I personally suspected that I had Lyme, I’d be taking, 30,000, 40,000, 50,000 IUs of vitamin D without any question at all. That’s probably why I did not develop Lyme, because really, the strategy is going to be supporting your immune system verses trying to kill off this infection, because you end up killing off the immune system.“]

If you suspect you have Lyme disease, you may want to try taking at least 30,000 IU of vitamin D daily, even if you’re taking antibiotics. Anytime you take vitamin D3, you also need adequate magnesium, vitamin K2, and zinc.

[Dr. Berg says spirochetes have been found in infections underneath teeth, into the jaw. Biological/holistic dentists can identify these infections.]

Japanese knotweed and garlic can also be beneficial for Lyme disease.
