yOUR PATIENT TESTED POSITIVE. NOW WHAT?

A positive test result for a tick-borne illness often leads to many questions about what to do next. What treatments to use? Pharmaceuticals or natural remedies? How to treat Lyme versus the co-infections? Should treatments differ for a PCR positive versus a serology positive? What types of medications can a patient handle based on age and physical condition? And many more.

Thankfully, there are many resources and private organizations that doctors can utilize to improve their understanding of how to treat tick-borne illnesses. IGeneX has published several blog posts on treatments. Also, there are a few companies IGeneX recommends for natural remedies (listed below).  These companies offer collaboration with on-staff integrative physicians to assist you in building comprehensive patient protocols. We encourage you to reach out them.

About NutraMedix

NutraMedix makes products with quality, safety, and potency in mind. Before their supplements can reach a patient, they must exceed quality standards, which means maximizing the bioavailability of select ingredients. They do this by providing hydro-alcoholic extracts that allow maximum dissolubility of phenolics, alkaloids, and other beneficial constituents from the plant material. That’s why many of their products are in liquid form. To ensure safety, NutraMedix strives to use plants and materials that do not include common allergens whenever possible. Visit website >>

The company leverages multiple mechanisms of action to support complex health challenges and key areas of health and back their finished formulations with peer-reviewed, published clinical research.
