Want to learn how to battle that back-to-school sickness your kids get? As a mom and pediatric doctor who specializes in natural remedies, I know that back-to-school season can come with a lot of germs and a lot of sickness, but there are things you can do to help keep your family healthy. Here are some of my favorites. I love using homeopathy for back-to-school sickness. Specific remedies like pulsatilla, belladonna, oxalicoccinum can help relieve common symptoms like fever, sore throat, headache. You want to have these on hand. Another tip is to boost your child's immune system with vitamin D and zinc. These vitamins and minerals, they're essential for a healthy immune system, and they can help prevent sickness from starting in the first place. Lastly, make sure your family's gut health is supported. Either serve probiotic-rich foods like sauerkraut or choose a high-quality probiotic to give daily. 70% of your immune system lives in your gut. We wanna honor that and focus our attention there, especially during back-to-school time when colds and flus are on the rise.
