New Jersey Globe: House passes Chris Smith measure to probe if government turned ticks into bioweapons
From the article: “Smith said that the government researcher credited with discovering Lyme disease, Dr. Willy Burgdorfer, was a bio-weapons specialist. According to Smith, Burgdorfer’s files reveals that he and other bio-weapon specialists ‘stuffed ticks with pathogens in a quest to cause severe disability, disease, and death to potential enemies.'”
Note: If you’d like to learn more about how ticks were weaponized by the U.S. government, I’d highly recommend Chris Newby’s book, “Bitten.” This isn’t some crazy conspiracy theory! Newby provides documentation for her claims using Willy Burgdorfer’s own personal documents.

Prohealth.com: Phospholipids…a powerful tool in Lyme disease recovery
From the article: “One powerful tool for healing and restoring the body involves using phospholipids, which are a type of fat that comprises all cell membranes, in addition to cholesterol. The cell membrane is where all cellular communications take place, and is responsible for uptaking nutrients into the cell while removing waste from it. The cell membrane gets damaged by toxins, inflammation, and other factors involved in Lyme, but by restoring it with phospholipid therapy, the body can more quickly heal.”

I reviewed Aromalief’s hemp pain relief cream last month!
After my review posted, the owner sent me a tube of the mild scent to try. I’ve been using it, and it’s just as good as Aromalief’s regular hemp cream. The only difference is that the scent is all natural and derived completely from essential oils, which is perfect for those of us who are sensitive to artificial fragrance!
