Lyme disease doesn’t just affect your body.
It can change how your genes express themselves.

That doesn’t mean your genes are broken—and it doesn’t mean healing isn’t possible.

This article explores the epigenetics of Lyme disease, showing how infections, toxins, and chronic stress can flip genetic “switches” that drive inflammation, neurological symptoms, immune dysfunction, and fatigue. More importantly, it explains how those switches can often be influenced back in the right direction.

At Biologix Center, we look beyond diagnosis labels to understand how illness alters regulation at a cellular level—and how targeted, individualized care can support recovery.

If you’ve been told “it’s just your genetics,” this may change how you see your healing potential.

What if the infection isn’t the main problem anymore?

Many people with chronic Lyme continue to struggle long after the initial infection—despite repeated rounds of antibiotics. Emerging research suggests the treatment itself may sometimes contribute to lingering symptoms by disrupting the body’s microbiome, immune balance, and cellular function.

This article explores a critical question:
👉 Could antibiotics be driving ongoing inflammation, neurological symptoms, and immune dysfunction in chronic Lyme patients?

At Biologix Center, we focus on identifying why symptoms persist—and addressing the underlying drivers, not just suppressing microbes.

Lyme disease isn’t like a fire you can see.
It’s more like termites in the walls.

You may look fine on the outside—while quiet damage continues underneath. That’s how many patients describe living with chronic Lyme: subtle at first, then progressively disruptive to the nervous system, immune response, and overall health.

This article breaks down why Lyme is often missed, misunderstood, or mistreated—and why surface-level approaches frequently fail to address what’s really happening inside the body.

At Biologix Center, we focus on identifying hidden contributors, restoring damaged systems, and supporting the body’s ability to heal—rather than masking symptoms.

If you’ve been told “everything looks normal” but don’t feel normal, this may explain why.

For decades, I’ve believed that healing works best when we support the body’s own biological intelligence rather than overpower it.

INPT reflects that philosophy by activating native phages already present in the body, allowing for a more precise and adaptive response—especially in patients who have tried everything else.

I’m grateful to the patients, clinicians, and researchers who have made this work possible, and to Biologix Center for remaining committed to innovation rooted in clinical experience.

The article may be from last year—but the work continues.

Mold illness isn’t just about exposure — it’s about what stays behind.
Many people continue to struggle long after leaving a moldy environment because toxins and opportunistic microbes remain active in the body.

This article explores how phage-based approaches may help address mold-related illness by supporting the body’s ability to target problematic microbial populations linked to mycotoxins and chronic inflammation.

At Biologix Center, this science-backed, systems-focused lens is part of a broader, individualized approach to helping patients regain clarity, energy, and resilience.

For many years, medicine has tried to solve chronic illness by adding stronger and stronger interventions.

In this BRMI webinar, I share why I believe the future of healing lies in a different direction—activating the body’s own biological intelligence, rather than fighting it.

We discuss Induced Native Phage Therapy (INPT), a method developed at Biologix Center that focuses on stimulating the bacteriophages already present in the body—rather than introducing foreign agents. I explain why antibiotic resistance is accelerating, why chronic illness is rarely just about infection alone, and how precision-based approaches may support recovery without overwhelming an already exhausted system.

This conversation is especially relevant for those who have tried many paths and still feel stuck, as well as practitioners exploring what comes beyond antibiotics.

For decades, we’ve been taught that healing chronic illness means fighting the body harder—stronger antibiotics, more supplements, more interventions.

But what if the real answer isn’t adding more…
What if it’s activating what’s already there?

In this recent BRMI webinar, I shared the science and story behind Induced Native Phage Therapy (INPT)—a natural biotechnology developed at the Biologix Center that works by stimulating the bacteriophages, mycophages, and virophages already residing in the human body.

These native phages aren’t foreign agents. They’ve been part of human biology since the beginning of time—quietly regulating microbial balance, maintaining order, and protecting the terrain. When activated correctly, they can do what antibiotics often cannot: precisely address chronic, treatment-resistant infections without exhausting the body further.

We discussed why antibiotics are failing globally, why chronic illness is not just about infection but also damage, and why true healing must restore function—not just suppress symptoms. We also explored how this approach avoids the “crisis before recovery” pattern so many chronically ill patients have been told to accept.

This conversation is not about replacing medicine—it’s about evolving it.

If you’re curious about where medicine is headed beyond antibiotics, or you’ve ever wondered why your body hasn’t responded to everything you’ve tried, I invite you to watch the full discussion.

Lyme disease doesn’t just affect the body — it can deeply impact the brain and nervous system.

Neurological Lyme can show up as brain fog, memory issues, mood changes, anxiety, or emotional instability — often long before it’s properly identified.

This article breaks down why that happens and how targeted correction is possible.

With Robert F. Kennedy Jr. bringing Lyme disease back into the national conversation, one reality is becoming impossible to ignore: people with both acute and chronic Lyme urgently need better answers.

For years, patients have struggled with limited options and incomplete recovery. Today, a new innovation is helping change that conversation.

Inducen® formulas, now in use by doctors across the country, represent a fundamentally different approach. Rather than overriding the body, this method works with its natural design and function—and has shown no known adverse effects.

In a peer-reviewed, published study, the Inducen Lyme formula demonstrated remarkable results:
• 92% of participants tested negative for Borrelia in just 30 days
• Minimal to no Herxheimer reaction
• 24 of 26 patients cleared Borrelia, confirmed by some of the most sensitive lab testing available
• Statistical analysis showed the results were extraordinarily unlikely to occur by chance
• Participants experienced significant symptom improvement, including one wheelchair-bound patient who regained the ability to walk
• 88% of patients tracked long-term remained Borrelia-negative

This research is based on Induced Native Phage Therapy (INPT)—a novel scientific approach developed by Dr. David A. Jernigan after more than a decade of focused research at Biologix Center for Optimum Health.

Rather than overwhelming the body, INPT is designed to support the body’s own innate biological intelligence—encouraging precision, balance, and recovery in even the most complex chronic cases.

As the conversation around Lyme disease evolves, so should the discussion around what is scientifically possible.
