of the Borrelia burgdorferi Bacteria
A neurotoxin is a poison that acts specifically on nerve cells. Neurotoxins are attracted to the nervous system, are then absorbed by nerve endings and then travel inside the neuron to the cell body. There they disrupt vital functions of the nerve cell.Sources of Neurotoxins:
Neurotoxins are caused by heavy metals, Aspartame, MSG, Sodium Nitrite in processed meats, alcohol, Fluoride, Aluminum Zirconium, paints, cocaine, statins,food additives,viruses, fungi, molds, mycoplasma, enteroviruses, Chlamydia pneumonia, Candida,parasites and protozoans (in the case of Babsiosis)and bacteria (as in the Lyme Bb bacteria) ..to name only a few of the 1178 chemicals officially listed as neurotoxins and the various bacteria's.Neurotoxin Poison released by the Bb Bacteria :
The Borrelia burgdorferi bacteria, in their life process (living and dying) release nerve poisons/toxins/biotoxins (similar to Clostridium botulinum) and are believed to be the cause, both directly and indirectly, of most, if not all, the symptoms of Lyme disease. These toxins are dumped into the intersitial fluid and circulated throughout the body, until they can either be eliminated by the body or get lodged in areas of weakened tissues or fat cells- all the while causing problems with the nerves and distorting the messages of the nerves to any or all areas of the body.
