But, why the heck can't we just take amphetamine?

Amphetamine works for normal people because it supresses appetite but over-eating is not the problem. Usually when I'm gaining weight, my appetite is even lower than usual.

amphetamine is far too taxing for the adrenal system. It's like giving chemicals to jolt a dysfunctional system and it can really burn out from the added stress.

amphetamine can really mess with the electrical circuitry, too.

I'm sorry...what was the original topic? I saw the heading "Obesity and Chronic Lyme" and thought I had fit the subject.

My bad.

Kelmo,
I was referring to the questions that were originally asked.

"How does being overweight impede getting rid of lyme, or getting rid of neuro toxins?"

"And I had to wonder if "fat" helps spirochetes out in some way."

"I did run across an article recently that said spirochetes like cholesteral, and it made me wonder.

Anyone know anything about this?"
