“Story at-a-glance
The prevalence of Lyme disease was reported to be 70% higher in 2022 than the annual U.S. average from 2017 to 2019, primarily due to changes in case reporting standards in high-incidence jurisdictions. High-incidence areas now report Lyme disease cases based on laboratory evidence alone, potentially inflating statistics due to eliminated requirements for clinical data
Early symptoms of Lyme disease include a distinctive “bulls eye” rash, fatigue, and fever, progressing to more severe neurological and arthritic symptoms in later stages
Diagnosing and treating Lyme disease is a complex affair, made even more complicated due to the frequent existence of co-infections
Holistic specialists may integrate antibiotic therapy with dietary changes, lifestyle adjustments, and natural remedies to manage and treat Lyme disease
Effective prevention includes avoiding tick habitats, using protective clothing, and using safe insect repellents like oil of lemon eucalyptus”

“The sun is out, flowers are blooming, and some of our favorite vegetables are ready for harvest.
When shopping at supermarkets, you can pretty much find every ingredient you want any time of the year. However, produce that’s out of season is typically sourced from far away places with warmer weather. While that’s not inherently a bad thing, there’s a case to be made for in-season, locally sourced produce.
And, most importantly, eating in-season vegetables is the best way to celebrate spring! Something about eating pasta primavera in the fall feels a little wrong. But enjoying it once the spring flowers start to bloom is just so right.”
