Lyme Disease affects multiple systems of the body creating a multitude of symptoms. 

In the later stages of Lyme disease, inflammatory cytokines increase and add to the symptoms that Lyme patients experience. One of the difficulties in dealing with persistent Lyme condition is to determine when illness is gone, as antibodies found on tests can persist for months or years, even after the disease has been cured, meaning labwork is not the answer, how the patient feels shows decreasing microorganism and bacterial imbalances.

The cytokines, IL-6, TNF-alpha, and IL-8 are increased when you suffer from Lyme disease and add to the symptoms. Ten-pass Ozone therapy decreases the pro-inflammatory cytokines, and also enhances cytokines to decrease inflammation, which can help alleviate symptoms. This is part of the regimen for Lyme patients, along with other antiviral and antibacterial treatment regimens involving supplements, nutrition, minerals, and life changes for the patient.
