Tick
saliva the answer to inflammatory conditions in humans (but not the
inflammatory condition called Lyme). The irony stings, if you pardon the
pun.
How many Lyme patients have MS-like symptoms or actually have been misdiagnosed with MS in the past (myself included)? Now science is proving that proteins in tick saliva may help patients with MS in the future, and those with inflammatory heart conditions, arthritis, Alzheimer’s etc.
And yet there is (as far as I know) no research into reducing the inflammatory effects and processes of Borrelia, which passes from the tick with the proteins..? Hmmm...
