Are you looking for natural solutions for everyday childhood ailments?
Sleeping problems are one of the biggest issues we get asked about. BetterYou Goodnight Spray for Kids is a brilliant magnesium body spray that can be gently massaged into the skin at night before bed to help get fall to sleep faster. Another great product is Natures Aid Bed Time. This is a wonderful herbal remedy containing Chamomile and Lemon Balm, two of nature’s finest herbs to aid relaxation and to promote sleep. I love that it is suitable from 3 months old.
For coughs there is Otosan Fortuss, a lovely syrup to relieve dry or congested coughs, it is suitable from one year onwards.
If your child has had to have antibiotics there are lots of microbiotic supplements to help replenish the important gut micriobiome. For example: Optibac drops for 0-3 months or Optibac Chewable Gummies with Vitamin D which are suitable from age 3. Or there’s Udo’s Choice Microbiotics for children 0-5 years of age. This comes in powder form and can be added to breast milk, formula or food.
For immune support customers love BetterYou Vitamin D Oral Spray. For Infants choose the blue box, or the orange box for toddlers. You simply spray onto the inside of the cheek where it is absorbed easily.
However, if your child has been experiencing recurring infections you might like a supplement with a complex mix of ingredients. Take a look at Dr. Wolz Kinderimmun it is for children from 2 years. I like this product as it contains Zinc, Vitamin D, C, and Colostrum, as well as Beta Glucans for normal immune support, and some good bacteria too. It is an all-round immune support.
Popular tonics are Salus Haus Floradix Kindervital suitable for Children from age 3. This is easy to take and provides important vitamin and minerals that are easily absorbed.
For stuffy noses try Otosan Nasal Spray Baby. It is suitable for babies to help deal with nasal congestion caused by colds or allergies. It helps soothe the nasal passage to reduce dryness and irritation of the mucous membrane.
These are just some of the natural remedies to help keep your baby healthy. Let us know if you have any questions, we would love to help.
