Theres SUCH a wide variety of natural remedies for flu-like symptoms and immune boosters. I’m always curious as to what other moms use and why. I’m also always on the lookout for products that the whole family can use just to make the daily consumption a bit easier.
Here’s my go to products:
1- PROSPAN & ECHINAFORCE
The world’s No.1 natural chesty cough medicine, and is backed by rigorous clinical evidence in over 65,000 patients. The non-drowsy, sugar-free formulation is reliable and very well tolerated, making it suitable for people of all ages. During lockdown my whole family takes this x2 a day. Available here
Echinaforce is a product of Avogel and this is a brand I’ve recently come to love. Echinaforce® is a clinically proven, herbal product that helps prevent and treat colds, flu, and upper respiratory tract infections. It also helps prevent the complications of colds and flu. Used daily, it offers year-round immune system support for the family. I put a few drops in the Prospan that we take daily. Echinaforce chewable tablets are a better option for kids as it tastes better, my kids think its sweets. Available here
2 – SEPTOGARD
Septogard is known as nature’s antibiotics and fights colds and flu symptoms. Its also a natural immune booster. If I think I HEAR a cough, out comes the Septogard and stops whatever it is in its tracks! Available here
3 – MULTIVITAMINS
Multivitamins are important for adults and kids. My hubby and I take Halo Beauty Kiwi but is only available on order from abroad. Its def worth it though. My kids take an organic raw foods supplement called Animal Parade Tummy Zyme. It tastes amazing! Kids love it.
4- VIT D3 PATCHES
Each one of these Vitamin D3 transdermal patches delivers 5000iu of vitamin D3 in a steady time-release dose over a 24-hour period, extracted from a natural, plant-derived source that is easily utilized by the body. Because your body needs magnesium and vitamin K2 to absorb vitamin D3, Neogenesis have formulated these patches with all 3. Neogenesis vitamin D3 transdermal patches deliver these nutrients through the skin, ensuring direct-to-bloodstream delivery of the active ingredients by simply placing a small medical-grade patch behind the ear. Twice a week my whole family gets a new patch. Available here
5 – PRE- AND PRO-BIOTICS
Adding a Pre- and / Probiotic to your diet improves gut health. Prebiotics provide “food” meant to promote the growth of beneficial bacteria in the gut, while probiotics are live good bacteria. My husband and I take Revitahealth’s Pre and Probiotic and my kids take Rawbiotics Kids.
Stay safe xx
