This is some scary stuff. [Eek!]

I hope those who have no appetite due to Babesiosis are being good about taking Vitamin supplements.

This pathogen (and others) depletes a LOT of OUR nutrients (vitamins, minerals, amino acids)...impacting our hormones, neurotransmitters...our defense!

PROBIOTICS!!!

Our own good guys (lactobacillus) need Mn to replicate.

Bb is dependent also on Mn...to a huge extent.

And we destroy our good guys with abx.

PROBIOTICS...LOTS....help the good guys outnumber Bb.

I had a sore tongue & I knew it wasn't yeast, so I started chasing Vitamin deficiencies. I knew there was a "B" that caused this.

Yes Marnie, probiotics are vital to both absorption of nutrients & proper immune response.

We just have WAY too many things to try to keep track of. [dizzy]
