Immune supporting remedies

Alright, let's be real. Yes, I use natural remedies AND we still get sick. However, there are two things i have noticed:

1) We are only sick a few times out of the whole year 

2) The duration for each person is usually pretty short

What happened in January??? If you come from a large family, you know that when one person gets sick, that pretty much takes up the next 30 days as it cycles through every person. Well, about the second week of January two of my kiddos caught a mild head cold, that cleared up, we went home shopping in Walden, got back and a couple days later my son had caught a stomach bug. I went into hyper drive to prevent it from spreading; more on that later. I seemed we managed that, but then one of the two girls that had not caught anything caught the cold/flu bug. The other girl still hadn't caught anything and I hadn't either. Meanwhile, everyone else was on the mend or healthy again. A few days later the other daughter was down with the stomach bug! Then, she caught the cold/flu bug after that. Poor girl. My oldest re-caught a cold/flu bug, but hit her a bit harder this time, and my son re-caught a stomach bug. Keep in mind basketball season is in full swing and the girls are going to away games together, breathing the same air, and I found out they all shared a coffee at one point. I started laughing as my oldest told me this and I said to her, "You want to know why you're sick again???" That concluded January, which we also still did school and worked with our livestock. So, these different bugs everyone caught were short lived but took up the entirety of January. Oh, and I'm fairly certain I also was dealing with my first UTI.

How do we manage sickness in our family? Well, for starters, let me explain, I have used other over the counter remedies before and I avoid them as much as possible. I have recently, in the last year, even used some over the counter meds and have found I just don't like how I feel after taking them and they were not really effective. We use natural remedies because we have found them more effective with no side effects and quite honestly I have peace of mind knowing I'm not wrecking something else in my body by taking a med with side effects. 

Here's what we do and are still doing! We all take Ningxia Red on a daily basis. What is that? is an antioxidant drink that helps your body get rid of toxins. We also avoid processed sugar and processed flour. At the first sign of sickness we eliminate dairy as that has a tendency to create more mucous in your throat and sinuses. I make a crockpot full of spiced cider. Message me if you want the recipe! We then move to essential oil application, which includes diffusers going in every room and putting those oils on everyones bodies. Go watch this video: Immune Support if you want to learn more about what we use and why. Young Living also has a vast array of essential oil infused supplements that we take. Why essential oils in supplements? The simplest answer is that essential oils help your body to absorb the supplements more effectively. They have: Super C, Super D, Super B, an immune support supplement, and even supplements to support your whole body. Go to this link to peruse their selection: Supplements

Taking care of our bodies shouldn't be complicated, especially during this season. Want to set up a consultation with me? Text, call or email and we can set up a free one-on-one meeting: (720) 336-4041

I'm not a medical professional, but I have 8 years of experience taking care of my family and friends with natural remedies. What's your biggest hangup? What keeps you from pursuing better health and wellness, especially when you see results from people around you?
