Dr. Mercola joins in

Well I see Dr. Mercola has jumped on the Lyme disease bandwagon.  Not directly, but via an interview with Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt.  In my opinion, there's some quackery involved in his treatments, but the article was the only mention of worms, both micro and macroscopic I've ran across.  I'll bet a lot of people with Lyme aren't even checked for the little vermin.

My only advice on "quackery" is the person who invented the website was fired from NIH and a disgruntled employee. The guy was a bit insane. So keep in mind there is an information war on doctors now because of that. A single doc making a few dollars vs big pharma making trillions AND having power over you as a citizen, I think is a bit more concerning at this point.

I agree, I'm surprised he didn't tout his Krill Oil as a treatment.  There are lots of folks trying to get rich off the Lyme infected, and some will since in reality there are really so many so afflicted.

Interesting.  I haven't been able to decide if Mercola is more of a salesman or an MD.  I think he means well, but I get suspicious of any docs who want to sell me a lot of vitamins, if you know what I mean.
