Polyphenols were discovered to be the magical answer to the riddle posed by the “French Paradox”, although in the case of healthy wine-drinking French, it is the grape polyphenol that counter-acts the scientists idea of a “bad” diet.
However, as the study of polyphenols enticed more and more research, it was found that polyphenols from apples are even more powerful.   They have also been known to remove oxygen free-radicals in the body, a substance that may cause cancer, they combat diabetes and lower the risk of heart disease.
In addition, it was recently discovered that apple polyphenols had a significant effect on muscle strength and reduction of organ fat.   They have also been found to boost the immune system and measurably extend life span.
Apple polyphenols are made with immature green apples (which are 10 times more potent than mature fruit), and derived exclusively from the peels which are the richest source of phyto-nutrients.
For the purpose of the “Salt and Apples” Protocol, apple polyphenols are 18 times more potent than Vitamin C. And they are far less abrasive to the stomach and absorb into the blood stream more easily.
In addition to offering superior anti-oxidant protection, apple polyphenols deliver a powerful protection against cardiovascular diseases, and appear to play a role in the prevention of other degenerative diseases including cancer.   As cardiovascular complications are one of the main causes of death with Lyme disease, apple polyphenols appear to offer many more health benefits than Vitamin C.
In the last few months of 2008, there have been some significant grants and research projects begun that look into the emerging evidence that apple polyphenols not only assist the body in fighting infectious diseases and harmful inflammation, but have the potential to improve human memory and neuro-cognitive performance.   In fact, The University of Reading in the UK is examining the role of apple polyphenols in actually stimulating neuronal regeneration!
This could be a wonderful breakthrough for those who are suffering with massive neural damage from Lyme disease.
Finally, to top off the benefits of using this new protocol is that  apple polyphenols are water soluble, where many Vitamin C tablets and most other polyphenols are not.   This allows for the nutrients to be absorbed quickly and easily.
For the “Salt and Apple Protocol,” we get all of the benefits of Vitamin C with fewer capsules and less side effects. There is a free ebook at the author’s website on Lyme disease if you are interested in resources and additional information.

I was diagnosed with lyme disease in ’93. Could I still be having some symptoms now? I know when I went to the doctor after a camping trip, I had the tell-tale bullseye rash. They said it was lyme disease and I think all that they gave me was tetracyclene. Coluld that cure lyme disease?

Emerging Infectious Diseases: The Role of Diagnostic Medical Microbiology.

Chromobacterium violaceum – An Uncommon Infection

Dr. T. V. Rao MD, Dr. K. V. Susheela, MD, Dr. Kumar DNB

Emerging Infectious diseases have gained increased importance

in the last few decades. Many developing countries are at frequent threat of, unnatural calamities, poor living conditions and lack of effective Diagnostic laboratories. The CDC (Centre for Disease Control) has identified the Importance of Emerging infection as a source of threat to all living beings and propagates the knowledge all over the world. The microbes continue to survive in spite of newer generation of Antibiotics. There is a recent emergence of several viral and bacterial infections after many decades of silence, and gaining new mutational advantages in causing atypical presentations and morbidity and mortality.

We present here with a Case of uncommon Bacterial isolate Chromobacterium violaceum . A young female child of seven years presented with fever, toxicity, and found to have a very furious ulcer of the size of 4 inches on the left deltoid region with smaller ulcer above the left knee joint and with atrophic nails. Few empirical prescriptions with newer generation of Cephalosporin – Cefotoxaime failed to bring in cure, and reduce toxic manifestations , A routine culturing of the specimen from the ulcer on simple media revealed a uncommon, newer isolate and characterized as Chromobacterium violaceum, known to live as saprophyte in soil and polluted waters It is a bacterium of low virulance causing occasional localized infections. , On few occasions and in immunocompromised can lead to septicemias with multiple abscesses in internal organs, urinary tract infection and diarrhea and caries a high mortality in disseminated infection. The laboratory culturing is easy and produces profuse violet pigment called vilocein. The Bacteria being characterized as Gram negative, motile, and few biochemical tests will identify the strains. making the Microbiologists to identify and report early for the effective cure. The present patient totally recovered with Amikacin as per the Antibiogram pattern.

The importance of the microbe lies with only few cases comes to lime light. A major peer reviewed study reported that first isolate was reported in 1927, out of 62 case studies 24 patients survived, 32 died and 6 had unknown outcome. There may be innumerable cases world few may be reported.

The importance of Microbiology laboratories rests with prompt identification and reporting can cure with simple remedies, as most of the emerging infections respond to several drugs and choice lies with optimal selection based on Antibiogram, as resistance is not a menace with emerging, newer and uncommon isolates, The relation of Microbes to humans was dynamic process, the key remains with our Immune system, and the environment we live. And man made ventures leading to many outbreaks of communicable diseases in the Developing world and giving way for Microbes to encroach on Humans The modern generation of Microbiologists should be familiar with Identification of the Microbes with newer generation of Technological advances

Today sharing the knowledge on Microbes through World Wide Web (WWW) helps for faster dissemination of Knowledge and many lives in the Developing world can be saved.

The present study on Isolation of Chromobacterium violaceum is done at

Jubilee Mission Medical College and Research Centre, Trichur, Kerala. India.

Lyme disease is an irritating disease that is caught from an infected tick bite. Most people have no idea just how frustrating and awful this disease can be for those afflicted by it. It causes muscle and joint agony that could last for days or many weeks at a time. You can end up with more than enough journeys to the health practitioners office, misdiagnoses and failed cures all can make for an awfully stressful part of your life.
Coping with Lyme disease can be notably difficult because most of the time the illness is misdiagnosed, which leads to taking drugs and medicines that don’t work, and you then suffering ongoing illness and agony from the disease. Because there is no conclusive test to resolve whether or not a Lyme disease infection is present, an incorrect diagnosis is common. This is especially aggravating for sufferers that are told that their illness is “all in their mind,” and then they’re are prescribed anti-depressants.
There are over 100 different symptoms of Lyme disease, which can make it very complicated for doctors to narrow down the symptoms into one illness. Lyme disease is also frequently misdiagnosed as another type of illness such as arthritis, and so the patient will not get the correct treatment.
If you are coping with Lyme disease in your life, following are some tips that could help you as you fight the disease:
Attain as much knowledge as you can about this disease. Educate yourself on the basics of, such as its symptoms, causes, how it is diagnosed and prognosis of the disease. Lyme disease progresses from the bacteria Borrelia, that is ordinarily transmitted by way of the bite of a deer tick. After the bacteria invades your body you’ll most likely start to suffer from the symptoms within a few weeks. Symptoms include a bulls-eye shaped reddish rash, fatigue, fever, and arthritis-like joint and muscle pain.
Putting up with Lyme disease and its multitude of symptoms certainly is not enjoyable, but by examining your symptoms and your medical history, your health practitioner will hopefully be able to make a proper diagnosis. Once a correct diagnosis is made, a cure can begin. This will almost certainly include either IV or oral antibiotics to rid your body of the bacteria. Having more knowledge of the illness and how it affects your body is an important part of coping with Lyme disease.
Talk to your health practitioner about the different cures that are feasible. Antibiotics are most commonly used to fight the disease. Be that as it may, you have alternative therapies available. These natural remedies help you cure your illness without relying on medicines and drugs that could cause other infections later, and could, in the long term, become expensive.
The most difficult thing to do while you’re feeling awful is be patient, but it’s very important when coping with your disease. You need to give your body the opportunity to be cured and respond to treatments, and worrying or stressing over how long it’s taking or dwelling on how bad you feel will not give you relief any quicker. In fact, it will hinder your recovery. So just try and relax — you will cure in time.

You can prevent disease with discount vitamins just as easy as with those you pay top dollar for on the High Street. Vitamins are vitamins, and they do not lose quality for price as long as you know what to look for and stick with name brands. They are the most purchased supplement in the western world, and there are ways of getting them for less than the normal price.
First, though, a definition of what a vitamin is since an astounding number of people have no idea of what actually constitutes a vitamin even though they can recite all the letters. In fact, a vitamin is a molecule, obtained from an organic animal or vegetable source that is essential for life. Without it there can be no animal life and vitamins generally catalyze or act as coenzymes in the biochemistry that makes up all of the chemical reactions of the body. A catalyst allows a reaction to occur without changing itself, and a coenzyme allows enzymes to do their jobs.
Let’s have a look at one or two vitamins to provide examples of these statements. In bygone days when sailors used sail to cross the oceans in open boats powered only by sail and oar, a trip that takes us a week in a cruise liner these days could take sailors several months. It was not only the fact that they relied on favorable winds, but also that they did not always know where they were going, and were frequently unable to store up for a whole voyage. They depended on landing at islands on the way to replenish supplies. Disease due to lack of nutrition was common and one of these was scurvy.
This condition is not strictly a disease and is due to a lack of vitamin C, or ascorbic acid. In fact the name ‘ascorbic’ comes from the Latin for ‘without scurvy’. The symptoms are liverish spots over the body, spongy gums that cause the teeth to fall out and bleeding from the mucus membranes. Healed scars will open up, and cured and knitted bone fractures will separate. Ultimately it causes death. The first person is used since scurvy still exists.
It is due to a breakdown in the synthesis of collagen which heals scars, keeps joints held together, and forms the outside part of cells, and also some inner cell structures. Collagen synthesis is dependent on the amino acids proline and lysine that are hydroxylated by the enzymes lysyl and prolyl hydroxylase. The problem is that these enzymes need ascorbic acid (vitamin C) to do their work. Without it, collagen cannot be made.
Although the chemistry was unknown, early sailors soon found that citrus fruits such as lemons and limes prevented this horrible condition. The English used to stock up their ships with fresh limes at any port of call that had them, and this is why the English are frequently referred to a ‘Limeys’. It got them a nickname, but it saved their lives. Scurvy is now rare, but it is not a disease as such that can be eradicated. It occurs now and again in teenagers with poor diets that do not include fresh fruit and vegetables.
Vitamin C supplements are now available, and it is one of the most common of the discount vitamins on the market. The same is true of vitamin A that is essential for good eyesight. It has many other uses, as has vitamin C, but without it we could not survive. Without it we will eventually become blind, although the first symptom is night blindness. However, an excess can lead to hypovitaminosis A, a condition common in the developed world. Its absence can kill us, and vitamin A deficiency is one of the more common conditions of the developing world. Vitamins are contrary creatures, and can do us harm as well as good.
How about vitamin D, the sunlight vitamin? We don’t think of it, yet it is responsible for the strength of your skeleton and the regulation of calcium and phosphorus levels in the blood. Without it our bones become soft, our children get rickets and we eventually die – frequently through cancer.
1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol is the chemical name for calcitriol, which is the form of vitamin D found in the body, known as vitamin D3. This has been found to kill some cancer cells in the laboratory, and it is thought that supplements of vitamin D might help to prevent some types of cancer. The reults of a four year cancer study were released in June, 2007, that showed a reduction of 60% in cancers where patients were given a aupplement of 1100 inernational units daily. This rose to 77% where the cancers had been diagnosed in their first year.
The effect of vitamin D was emphasized by the reults of a study of more than 4 million cancer patients that showed a marked difference in the risk of cancer according to whether they lived in sunny or less sunny climates.
So these are the benefits of some discount vitamin supplements. How, then, do you find vitamins at discount prices? The easiest way is to purchase in bulk. There are those that form online clubs for vitamins and pay a weekly or monthly fee to join. When offers come online for specific supplements at low prices, they are purchased by the groups and distributed. You could do the same yourself with some friends, since it is generally cheaper to purchase 5 Kg of a vitamin that 500g. Your local health food store could also help you out since they are likely to be able to procure discount bulk prices from their supplier.
Another way is to wait until your local store makes special offers, or seek offers in the press. These can often be found, but if you are concerned mainly with the common vitamins A, B complex, C, D and E then a large proportion of the population are interested in these and you should not find it difficult to sell several kilos of these. You will not only get yours free, but will a sizeable profit into the bargain.
Anything between that and the normal price is an advantage for chemicals that are essential for life. One thing to always remember, buy reputable name brand vitamins because if the vitamins seem to cheap than you’re probably right. Name brand vitamins have quality and can be purchased at discount prices if you look long enough.

If you are in the uncomfortable position of having Lyme disease after being bitten by infected ticks, and appreciate how difficult the disease can be. Most people do not realize how Lyme disease can be aggravating and painful for those affected by it. Municipalities and the agony of muscle, which can last days or weeks at a time, many trips to doctors, misdiagnosis and treatment tried everything we can do to a very stressful life.
Suffering with Lyme disease can be particularly difficult because the disease is often diagnosed incorrectly, leading to treatments that do not work ever attempted, and then you suffer from the disease and the constant pain of the disease. Because there is no evidence to solve desisive if you are suffering from Lyme disease, correct diagnosis is normal. This is particularly frustrating, especially for people who say their symptoms are "all in their minds," and therefore are prescribed antidepressants. There are over 100 different symptoms of Lyme disease, which can make it very difficult for doctors to limit the symptoms in a single disease. Lyme disease is often confused with another type of disorder, like arthritis, so the patient does not receive proper treatment.
If you're with Lyme disease as a daily event, here are some tips that can help you how to fight the disease:
Acquiring knowledge as possible about their condition. Educate themselves about the facts of Lyme disease because its symptoms, causes, as a means of diagnosis and prognosis of the disease. Lyme disease is transmitted by the bacterium Borrelia, which is usually transmitted by the bite of a deer tick. Once the bacterium has invaded your body will more than likely begin to experience symptoms within a few weeks. Symptoms include a bull's-eye-shaped red rash fever, fatigue, and arthritis-like joint and muscle pain. Put this disease and its symptoms is certainly very fun, but looking at the symptoms and medical history, your doctor is expected to be able to make a correct diagnosis. Once a correct diagnosis was made, the healing can begin. This often includes both oral and intravenous antibiotics to rid the body of the bacteria. Understanding the disease and what your body is an important part to cope with their illness.
Talk to your doctor about different treatments that are available. Antibiotics are used to combat the disease. Whatever the reason, there are no other resources. These natural treatments help cure their disease, without drugs and medications that can cause other infections later, and may in the longer term, become expensive.
The hardest thing to do when you feel it's terrible to be patient, but it is very important when the dough with Lyme disease. You must give your body a chance to heal and respond to treatment, and worrying, or stressing when you are taking or thinking about how you feel bad does not give you any help faster. In fact it is more likely to slow recovery. So try to relax – it can heal with time.
