"You can easily determine your unique genetic ability to remove Lyme's specific biotoxins by ordering a special 5-part HLA inherited gene marker test from LabCorp (test 012542), which is one of the largest labs in the United States."

The site above is worth reading if you want to know how lyme toxins affect us.

Dr. S's site. He pioneered the theorypy.

It is a genetic test that is used to determine whether or not you are genetically more susceptible to various biotoxins.

Dr. S has published a lot about HLA genotyping. And according to him, certain genetic sequences will make it harder for you to clear biotoxins from your body and thus it will make it harder for you to get well.

Your HLA DRB DQ test results will have to be "decoded". To decode your test results click on the link down bellow and read pages 14, 15 and 16:

The HLA genes that you really don't want is on page 45 on the link bellow.
