Lewy bodies are abnormal aggregates of proteins that develop inside nerves, in Parkinson’s disease, Lewy Body dementia, and other brain diseases. An aggregate of abnormal proteins can occur when normal or abnormal proteins stick together, and/or fold into abnormal shapes.

Immortal pathogens have abnormal proteins attached to the surface, which confuse the immune system; and generate a sticky environment inside the cell that causes intracellular proteins to fold improperly. As the pathogens spread, abnormal proteins are dispersed into the body and the surrounding tissue.

In Parkinson’s disease, the infectious byproducts and abnormal proteins of H-pylori and/or chlamydia may clump together to form the Lewy bodies characteristic of Parkinson’s disease.
