Lyme Disease Awareness Month: The Support, the Science, and the $100 Giveaway That Could Change Your Wellness Plan
Let’s face it: Lyme disease isn’t just a tick bite—it’s a winding journey of symptoms, uncertainty, and trial-and-error healing. And if you're reading this, you may already know what it’s like to wake up tired, struggle with brain fog, or feel like your body isn’t keeping up with your life.
May is Lyme Disease Awareness Month, and at 1st Chinese Herbs, we’re not just raising awareness—we’re offering real support, real strategies, and a $100 giveaway to help you get the herbal tools you need.
Here’s why this month matters, what herbs can make a difference, and how to enter for a chance to win.
What Is Lyme Disease Awareness Month?
Every May, Lyme Disease Awareness Month shines a light on one of the most misunderstood and misdiagnosed diseases in modern medicine. It’s a time to:
-
Educate the public about early symptoms (like rash, flu-like symptoms, or headaches)
-
Support those facing chronic symptoms like joint pain, fatigue, and cognitive issues
-
Promote prevention and early intervention
-
Empower patients seeking natural recovery tools alongside medical care
With cases rising in all 50 states and more people turning to herbal medicine for immune and neurological support, this month is more than a reminder—it’s a rally cry for holistic solutions.

What Most Lyme Articles Leave Out (But You Need to Know)
| Common Question | Honest Answer |
|---|---|
| How fast do herbs work? | Most people notice subtle shifts in 1–2 weeks; deeper changes come with consistency over 4–8 weeks. |
| Can I take herbs with antibiotics? | Often, yes. But always consult a practitioner. Many herbs support antibiotic effectiveness and recovery. |
| Is this safe for long-term use? | Many are, with breaks. Always rotate herbs every few months and monitor symptoms. |
| What form is best—tincture, powder, tea? | Depends on your goals and digestion. Tinctures absorb faster; powders last longer and are more affordable. |
