Diana’s quick guide to fighting germs!
Being sick stinks
right? We all want to avoid it, and want easy ways to fight germs when they do attack
us. God gave us an amazing body, and some things that we can take that naturally work with our body to help us!
5 years ago we moved 2000 miles for my
husband to start school. We moved in to a wonderful family on campus
apartments. Which meant we now had lots of new friends AND new germs. My kids
were 1 and 3 at the time, and we were sick pretty much September to June. Each
year our immune systems have gotten better, but it is rough! But I have learned
many natural remedies to help! Now, I am NOT a doctor and these are just recommendations
based on our family’s experience and I hope they can help yours!
(my only affiliated link is the plexus ones!)
My number one favorite new thing? Colloidal Silver! This thing kills germs! We use it mostly as a few drops in the nose to
clear it up. It helps my daughter not to cough all night long after colds like
she used to! Click on the picture to see where you can buy
it on amazon!
It has many other uses, including just taking
it when you are feeling down. If my ears
are bothering me from a cold or allergies, a couple drops in each one really
helps! This stuff is awesome! Here is a website with more ideas!
Do you know they have shown in studies that Probiotics can help your immune system!? Here is one page you can look at out of many that explain how they are helpful. There are many probiotics out there, and many are good and help with gut health. But my favorite probiotic (And I have tried a lot of probiotics!!) is from Plexus! They have 5 different important strands of bacteria, plus enzymes that help break down food! And vitamin c and grape seed extract that work naturally with your body to help it use the probiotics and enzymes better!! For immune system improvement, you will have to take it for a few weeks for it to really help. But it makes my stomach and bowl issues feel better right away! Try it!
I also love essential oils! For me, I love
a blend of lavender, lemon and peppermint that I dilute in a roller bottle and
then role on my neck and behind ears when feeling low. My favorite place to get
them? https://www.rockymountainoils.com/
These are really high quality but cheaper then then MLM options. You will never
have smelled a peppermint like theirs! Inhaling/diffusing is the most effective
way to use EOs!
I also like https://www.planttherapy.com/. They
are cheaper but still good. I LOVE their kid safe blends! The sniffle stopper
works great if you have it diffuse for just and hour or so right above your
sleeping child. Remember, essential oils are powerful, so less is more! I also
LOVE their “calm the child” which happens to work well for me too! J
