KPU- What is it? | What is Lyme Disease?

What is KPU?

“Kryptopyrroluria (KPU) is a condition in which patients become zinc, biotin, B6, manganese, and omega-6 fatty acid deficient. As a result and in part, ‘their immune systems are like soldiers with guns without bullets’, says Dr. Dietrich Klinghardt, MD, PhD.” A “condition whereby the body” is unable to process and results “in severe mineral deficiencies.” [1]

Is this what is holding many people back from feeling better?
