Beyond Lyme Disease: Healing the Underlying Causes of Chronic Illness in People with Borreliosis and Co-Infections

Connie Strasheim, author of the internationally best-selling "Insights Into Lyme Disease Treatment," is back with the market's most cutting-edge new Lyme disease book Chronic Lyme disease is a quagmire even for the most brilliant of minds. Sometimes, even the best holistic treatment protocols, and the most competent Lyme-literate doctors fail to heal people from this devastating disease. This is because tick-borne infections aren't the only principal cause of illness in people with Lyme. Environmental toxins, mold, parasites, dental problems, emotional trauma, adrenal fatigue and other factors cause severe chronic illness in people with tick-borne infections. If doctors and patients happen to recognize that these factors are present, their importance is often underestimated and, if they are treated at all, they are usually considered to be ancillary conditions to Lyme. Yet often, they are primary causes of illness, and must be thoroughly addressed if full healing is to occur. Up until recently, the Lyme disease community has focused mostly upon treating tick-borne infections, and not obtained, or seen, complete remission from disease. By treating the major underlying causes of disease described in this book, people with Lyme can increase their chances for a faster and more complete recovery, and doctors can witness more of their patients experience freedom from disease.
