Hi again,

I have been reading more about Lyme disease and co-infections. I read
through the links that Paleophil posted and briefly exchanged emails with
Ben's girlfriend. So far, from what I have read and without any further
results yet, I feel that fasting would be the best option. However, I am
unable to do a fast until end of September or more likely end of October.

However, if Borrelia burgdorferi loves glucose than I would think it would
be best to even reduce protein intake (which is what Ben was eluding to if I
understood correctly). A fat fast sounds good as well, but I can't do that
until end of October. So what I am wondering, and would like input on, would
it make sense to reduce protein intake to the bare minimum and otherwise eat
nothing but fat? I was thinking about eating twice a day - midday nothing
but fat, and evening some protein and lots of fat (or just one meal a day of
protein and fat).

I am 45, female, 5'8", around 138 lbs - unfortunately not as lean as I would
like to be right now due to all the health issues - so I am guessing
anywhere from 20 to 24 % body fat. I was thinking that 65 grams of protein
should be sufficient??

Does any of this make sense? Sorry, I have horrible brain fog and trouble
wrapping my mind around things these days so this may not be a good plan at
all.

Any input you have is appreciated.

Thanks,
~k
