This is the first I've heard of it --

http://www.bayarealyme.org/blog/straight-talk-biofilms-new-answer-treating-lyme-disease/

wondering if anyone has any personal experience or if LLMDS are now using it?

I may have read the article wrong, but I took it that the compound that is breaking down the biofilm has been named Agilyte.

It is not a supplement or med at this point. The next step was more research into creating a product.

No docs are using it. kgg is right. It hasn't been produced yet, just an idea in the making.

It says.. "On our end, we’re working on getting funding that will allow us to take our compounds into animals to see if using our compound can enhance doxycycline treatment in mice."

My guess is it will be a ways off before it is approved for use in humans, if it ever is. My thought is there is now a race to the cash register to see who can find the best compound to bust the biofilms.

Cha ching! Cha ching!
