People that have Lyme Disease have stricter rules to follow when it comes to everyday living.
For instance, the sun is bad for you. It actually feeds the Lyme parasites in your body, which of course make you feel worse. So if you have Lyme and you don't feel good being out in the hot weather and the sun, it's the parasite that's doing that to you. The best time to be outside during the day is after dinner when the sun is going down.

Also, the rules about eating. As I stated before; one of the key things to fighting a disease and feeling good is eating healthy. All greens and fruits with the occasional meat or fish.
For people that have Lyme though, it's even more stricter. Only green vegetables are what you should eat. Fruits aren't really good for you at all if you have Lyme, considering all the sugar that is in them. Especially fruits like strawberries, bananas, pineapple, oranges, etc. You can have meats though.

Okay so what do you drink? Well of course you can have water, you can have tea without sugar and caffeine, and vegetable juices. And instead of using sugars to sweeten your decaffeinated teas, try something like stevia and it tastes just as good. Also you can use stevia and add lemons to water to make it like lemonade which is also good.

In general you should never have a soda. It's terrible for your body. But if you're someone with Lyme Disease, it is crucial that you don't have soda. And what's funny is the doctors say that you can! Someone with Lyme needs to be really careful when it comes to that, sodas and caffeine, and sugar will just feed the Lyme parasite which doesn't make you feel good at all.
