Why We Love Acute Lyme Bundle

This powerful, three-product bundle helps your body’s natural defense system ramp up its efforts when trying to fight Lyme and common co-infections. When paired with antibiotics prescribed by your doctor, such as doxycycline, your body has a better chance of getting rid of these bugs in the acute stage.

This product bundle offers proactive, full-body support that especially helps strengthen your immune system.

When we’re dealing with acute-stage Lyme, the IDSA guidelines are the bare minimum of where you should start. Take doxycycline for the recommended duration. This does seem to work between 70-90 percent of the time depending on how quickly the illness can be found. A recent 2022 John Hopkins study found the standard antibiotic approach worked works 90 percent of the time when applied within 30 days.  Still that leaves 10% of people who can still experience pain, fatigue, or abnormal neurological symptoms even after standard treatment for Lyme Disease.

Please note:

  • See next section and FAQ question “Why aren’t antibiotics enough by themselves?”
  • This approach is for acute Lyme, not chronic Lyme.

Treatment for a Tick Bite and Acute Lyme Disease: Part II – Natural Support Alongside Antibiotics

 

Ingredients

Garlic

A study in 2018 found that garlic was effective against the bacterium Borrelia burgdorferi (the main strain of Lyme) in its stationary phase. Garlic was shown to have antimicrobial and anti-Borrelia properties and showed effectiveness in lowering inflammation. The only downside to garlic is that it stinks…like garlic.

Neem

Neem has properties against bacteria, yeast, parasites, and viruses. This gives us broad-spectrum coverage in case the tick was carrying any other pathogens, such as the parasite Babesia, Malaria’s ugly cousin. Neem is very important to include because the main antibiotic mentioned in the IDSA guidelines for acute Lyme (doxycycline) doesn’t touch Babesia.

Probio Maintain

Probio Maintain is a broad-spectrum, high-dose probiotic delivering 100 billion active cultures. This number is high enough to help your gut while you’re taking antibiotics. Each capsule of Probio Maintain provides six proven probiotic strains chosen for their ability to survive the harshest gastrointestinal environments and deliver superior results.

Top 3 Problems With Antibiotics Alone – 10% Failure Rate

It is fairly well accepted that if you catch Lyme and some of the co-infections within the first three months of being bitten, your chances of getting better quickly are much higher. However, the antibiotic-only approach fails 10% of the time and can create some problems.

Problem No. 1 Your Gut takes the brunt: Antibiotics’ most common side effect is disturbing your gut bacteria. Many patients experience gut problems from taking antibiotics. Taking a probiotic during any course of antibiotics can help support gut health and lessen the chance of this unwanted side effect.

Problem No. 2 Antibiotics fail against biofilms: Antibiotics do not deal with Lyme “persisters” or “biofilms.” Lyme bacteria’s main method of immune evasion is to try and put up a physical barrier called a biofilm. These biofilms prevent antibiotics from physically getting to the bacteria to kill it. The common drug doxycycline does not go through these biofilms and can leave Lyme “persisting,” which causes some patients to have long-term symptoms. Garlic has been shown to be effective against Lyme persisters and to break through the defensive biofilm Lyme tries to put up to protect itself.

Problem No. 3 Tick’s carry parasites and viruses in addition to Lyme the antibiotic doesn’t do anything against: Antibiotics, specifically doxycycline, do not help you with co-infections such as Babesia (a parasite) and any virus the tick can carry such as Powassan Virus. Ticks can carry more infections than just Lyme. Doctors often refer to ticks as “Nature’s Dirty Needle.” It’s common that chronically sick people got bit by a tick that had Lyme plus a co-infection, which means they got two or more infections simultaneously from the same tick bite. Neem has a variety of antimicrobial properties and can help support your body’s fight against parasites and viruses. Neem gives broad support in case you got bit by a tick that gave you multiple infections, not just Lyme disease alone.

Acute Lyme Bundle FAQ

What are the common side effects of these Acute Lyme Bundle products?
Garlic can give some patients heartburn, but it can be relieved by taking it with food or using simple over-the-counter antacids for most people. All of the products featured in this bundle are extremely safe and have very minimal side effects.
Can I get a “Herx” or “die-off” reaction from these?

Any time you kill a microbe in the body, you can have an increase in inflammation as the immune system addresses the dead microbe. This can create an increase in inflammation, thus an increase in any symptoms. This is always possible, but Herx reactions are more common in chronic cases and far less common in acute.

What do I do if I get a Herx or feel worse taking the kit?
If the symptoms are mild and tolerable, we encourage you to continue on the program as part of the healing process. As an example, remember that a mild fever is a sign of a healthy immune system fighting off an invader, even though you do not feel great while your body does this. If the side effect/reaction is more intense, we recommend stopping for three days and trying again with everything at half the recommended dose. If you are unable to tolerate even half the recommended dose, then a consultation with a medical professional for the best strategy moving forward is recommended.
Does the garlic smell?
Oh, yes. It smells like garlic. I recommend having mints around at all times, particularly if you need to kiss someone. All joking aside, I have used a variety of garlic tinctures and supplements, and the less pungent brands have always been inferior in effectiveness to the ones with a strong aroma.
