The first time I experienced what I’d now refer to as binge eating, I was about six years old. My mum would keep Penguin bars in the cupboard for my school lunchbox, and when she wasn’t around I would sneak into the kitchen, grab a pack of eight and scurry back to my room to eat them all in quick succession, shoving the wrappers behind my dresser or inside my sock drawer.

In 2001, there were about 17,000 confirmed cases of Lyme disease, but in 2015, the number reached almost 30,000. Health officials warn those figures may vastly underestimate how widespread the disease really is, because many cases are not reported to the CDC. Ninety-five percent of Lyme disease … [Read more...] about Tick season is here: How to avoid them and prevent tick-borne illnesses
