Podcast Episode Fifty-One: What You Need to Know About Lyme Disease

Lyme disease is a bacterial infection transmitted through the bite of a tick, and it can be a serious disease. That’s not to say that every tick bite will cause it, but it is something to watch for because the effects of this disease can cause immense harm to your body. 

You may know this disease by its characteristic bulls-eye presentation on the body. While many people experience the typical symptoms like fever, chills, headache, fatigue, muscle and joint pain, etc., not everyone will. Sometimes it progresses over a long period of time and you may not even know that you have it. 

The problem with this disease is that the symptoms could be caused by many other things so it can be easily missed, but there is hope. In today’s episode of VitalHealth4You, we are diving deep into the topic of Lyme disease. We’ll cover what to watch out for, symptoms to be aware of, and the multifaceted approach that you need to fight off the bacteria, strengthen the immune system, and recover from this disease.
