Re: Klinghardt on porphyrins/Lyme
Over 80 percent of our Lyme patients have developed HPU (hemo-pyrrol-lactam-uria). The term falsely used in most US literature is KPU (krypto-pyrrol-uria)
HPU disarms the immune system by catastrophic depletion of zinc, manganese, arachidonic acid, histamin, taurine.
These losses are hard to detect with any current technology (only bone and CNS biopsies are reliable.
Labs to consider:
KPU urine test (Vitamin Diagnostics)
alkaline phosphatase low normal
copper: zinc ration greater than 1 in hair and urine
low Omega 6 in red cell membrane fatty acid test
white blood cell zinc, red cell copper level
If KPU is treated first and the system is restored to normal levels (4-8 months), Borrelia, Bartonella-like organisms and Babesia respond to much milder interventions without significant Herxes or problems
