NEW blog post is up! "How I Beat Lyme Disease with The Ketogenic Diet — Science, How-To Protocols, and 10+ Years of Zero Symptoms" I started writing this as a reply to @TheGregYang, co-founder of xAI, who recently stepped down from xAI to address his debilitating case of Lyme disease. Ultimately, I decided that a blog post could provide more detail and allow proofreading by credible scientists, so here we are. Before we dive in, a disclaimer: I’m not a doctor, nor do I play one on the internet. The following is for informational purposes only. Please consult with your doctor and read the warnings at the end. CONTINUE READING: tim.blog/2026/01/30/lym…
.@RepMGriffith: “Everybody knows about the big three — Lyme, alpha gal, Rocky Mountain spotted fever — my goodness there’s close to a dozen if not more [tick-borne] diseases, and I’m learning so much…That’s why this meeting today is so important, Mr. Secretary.”
Yesterday marked a new era as HHS mobilized the full power of public-private partnerships by renewing its LymeX partnership and prioritizing AI-accelerated science to confront this chronic disease. Visit hhs.gov/lyme to learn more, engage with new tools, and accelerate progress treating invisible illness.

When will people in the health world realize that so long as you have suppressed emotions, you'll never be healthy?
🚨 NEW @Nature paper explains how Lyme disseminates within 2 hours (!) & persists all over the body 1️⃣ Hour 2: Slips into lymph → spreads body-wide SILENTLY (before immune attack) 2️⃣Slides along collagen → no inflammation alarm 3️⃣Hides between cells: Pericyte fingers + membrane tunnels → invisible to immune cells 4️⃣Blood vessels blocked: Stays in tissues, avoids immune cleanup in bloodstream Result: Lyme seeds every organ (joints, heart, brain) ➡️ hides in pockets ➡️reactivates later
Hey, as you know @jordanbpeterson has been really sick. A lot of people have been asking for updates so here’s one. He’s recovering slowly day by day but I won't lie, it's slow and scary. He won't be back for another few months at least, probably longer. We’re not entirely sure what’s going on but it looks like possibly severe CIRS and a LOT of bad luck. Or we’re getting spiritually attacked. Or both. To be perfectly honest, I think a lot of this is spiritual. My newborn Audrey almost died of heart failure for no reason in June, dad got sick and came to stay with us in July, then needed a hospital and the same day he went to the hospital by ambulance, my newborn turned blue (again) at home for a different reason not heart related and went a different hospital by ambulance. Within 3 hours of each other. It's been one thing after another in an otherworldly type of way. In the meantime, we'll be going full force with @petersonacademy, and keeping his message across his brand alive while he recovers. Not letting demons get in the way of that. Prayers are MUCH appreciated. Ephesians 6:12
A chilling connection between a US biological weapons program and the Lyme disease epidemic has been detailed by journalist Kris Newby, author of "Bitten: The Secret History of Lyme Disease and Biological Weapons." The timeline and geography she presents are impossible to ignore. Prior to the mid-1970s, Lyme disease was not a noticeable public health problem. Then, Newby's research reveals, a mysterious cluster of three previously rare and virulent tick-borne diseases emerged simultaneously in Lyme, Connecticut—directly across the water from Plum Island, the US government's primary animal disease biological weapons research facility. The diseases were: • Lyme Arthritis (caused by the Borrelia spirochete) • A Rickettsia (Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever) • Babesia, a cattle parasite rarely found in humans This triple emergence of novel pathogens at the epicenter of America's bioweapons research peak was a red flag. Newby states this is precisely the pattern that would trigger a high-level CDC investigation into a potential unnatural outbreak. The official story credits NIH researcher Willy Burgdorfer with discovering the Lyme spirochete. However, Newby's investigation suggests the response was atypically secretive. Instead of a call for urgent research, the complex, often chronic illness was minimized—reduced to a simple bite and a short course of antibiotics, a solution that has proven tragically insufficient for millions. The question posed is stark: Is the coincidence of geography and timing merely a conspiracy theory, or is Lyme disease a "highly likely militarily engineered bioweapon," as Newby has concluded? The evidence she presents suggests we have not been told the whole story of this modern plague.
University of Arkansas, we are on the way now to kick off my 10-stop campus tour! We’ve already sold two different rooms so we are on the way to the biggest room possible to fit as many students as we can! See y’all on the ground soon!
