Similarly, I had an ALS patient who swam in the red tide right before his diagnosis. So these fungal infections and Lyme disease often run together and look like these neurodegenerative conditions in people. With heavy metals mixed in for good measure usually too, unfortunately. So with patients with Lyme, you know, I get a test. I like a number of them. I like tick-borne 1.0 and 1.2 by Vibrant.
The tick-borne test. It's by Vibrant. I like iogenics, which is the gold standard for alternative testing for criteria for Lyme. And I like Armin Labs, too. Armin Labs is great out of Germany. And so, you know, the thing about Lyme that people have to know is it's usually indirect antibody testing, which means we look at these bands and see if these bands are positive.

Two of the most sensitive bands were removed by the CDC in the early 90s because they came up with the Lyme vaccine. It failed miserably because it had side effects, and they had to pull it off the market. And the reason they took the bands off was because people who were vaccinated for the Lyme disease popped off positive on these two bands on the testing.

So they couldn't have that happen, but they never put the bands back. So the CDC criteria for testing is often very stringent and misses the mark because of that. So the functional testing, we've put those bands in, and it's a little more accurate to get a positive diagnosis.

So, yeah. So, you know, there's no agenda at all. So, you know, you have to know this about people. And another thing is if their immune systems are immunosuppressed, which is a lot of people today, this is a lot of people who are sick with lowered immune systems, their body is not going to produce a positive band because the immune system is suppressed on this test.

So we take all this with symptomatology, with their story, with everything else for a positive diagnosis. Right.

There's actually, you said provoke it. Remind me, there's another Lyme test called DNA Connections where you go get an infrared sauna or you get a lymph massage and then you pee. And it gets a positive test because you provocated the bacteria out of the hidden tissues with the massage or the sauna.

It's like we gotta kick the dust up at the construction site a little bit.
