Tick Bite Support Extracts
The “Biofilm Buster” Serrapeptase and why it is essential
All bacteria, including those responsible Lyme and other tick borne diseases, produce biofilm.
Biofilm is a gel like substance created by colonies bacteria to protect them from being effected
by antimicrobial agents.
Serrapeptase is a proteolytic ( protein digesting) enzyme that breaks down biofilm, leaving pathogens
exposed so that anti-microbial agents can do their job.
In her book, Dr. Alexis Chesney lists Serrapeptase as a “biofilm buster” For this reason Serrapeptase
is an essential part of our treatment protocol for Lyme. We stock the Nutramedix brand that Dr. Chesney recommends.

Tick Bite Care Info
Stay calm. Use a tick spoon, tweezers or your fingers; slide under the tick and gently grip, slowly and firmly lift and pull back without twisting.
Safely Remove Tick
Wash thoroughly. Clean with alcohol or alcohol based extract. The bite will likely swell, redden and itch.
We recommend Andrographis applied topically for after bite care. Soak a small piece of cotton and keep it affixed on the bite site for at least 4 hours.
Clean Bite Site
Save the Tick. Early detection is key to effective management of Lyme and other Tick-borne illnesses. Not all ticks carry disease. A lab can identify the tick, if they’ve fed, and determine what diseases the tick was or was not carrying.
