The ticks are crazy! If you spend anytime in the woods like I do, it is impossible to not get bit. Today, from just a 3 hr land nav training I ended up with a few. One latched real good.
You can’t go on antibiotics every time this happens. It will do more harm than good. For me It’wvery week these days
My field proven advice:
-Put ALL your clothes and gear in the dryer on high for 15 -20 minutes. I found multiple dead ticks after this that I never saw on my clothes
- Consider taking Cryptolepis. It has a much higher efficacy against Lyme than other herbs.

HYDRATION!!!! Water is not enough to keep you running. Electrolytes fuel the cells and are needed when operating in this hot weather.
I get no kickbacks on this but discovered a solution to the overly processed, sugar filled garbage like Gatorade. But I’ve struggled to find ones that taste good…until now.
FlavCity is really good! Filled with vital
Minerals like sodium potassium and magnesium. And made with real fruit juice all for about 1.57
A serving…so let’s compare:
Sugar
Gatorade- 34 grams …FlavCity- 2 grams
The American Heart Association recommends no more than 15 grams per day of added sugar for heart health
Food coloring and additives
Gatorade- Red40, Blue 1, yellow 5, calcium silicate, modified food starch, bromate vegetable oil.
FlavCity- NONE.
Imagine we are giving HS age students this garbage by the gallon….oof.
Cost
Gatorade-3.29
FlavCity- 1.57 but if you pay for water, maybe 3.00
Everyone says being healthy is expensive. Honestly not in this case. But for me? The taste has to be there and this stuff is delicious!!!
