I have a horrible immune system it seems but fortunately, my kids were blessed with my husband’s amour of good health instead.  They both received chiropractic adjustments as babies and would even get them more regular now if we could find a way to get it into our schedule.  But, in the whole scheme of things, that’s definitely my idea of the best way to preventative health. 

We taught both boys to sneeze and cough into their elbows and very young ages and in reality, they were exposed to the world of germs at a fairly young ages.  With Ditto Boy, he was born in January and we barely even slowed down.  We were out and about, heading out of state when he was only 3 weeks old. 

Mini Me was born in November and was a preemie so his world was a bit more protected as we didn’t let him out and about much tat whole winter but he was passed around to  party of about 30 in January at Ditto Boy’s second birthday party. 

We do vaccinate the boys and for the most part, as far as school absences go, Ditto Boy has taken more mental health days than actual days from being sick.  And, honestly, I do believe that those days keep him strong enough to prevent the average stuffy nose bugs from grabbing on to him. 

I’ve never been one to consider myself just a homeopathic preventative care person but I definitely think that chiropractic, exposure to germs slowly over time and the mental health days have kept us healthier than anything.  And, regardless of whether or not you use homeopathic medicines for yourself or your family, we wanted to make you aware that Boiron is introducing three new homeopathic medicines for kids: Children’s Oscillococcinum®, Children’s Coldcalm Pellets®, Children’s Chestal®.

You can get a coupon for $1 off of Boiron’s products and see how well that works for you…and remember, mental health is as equally as important as anything.
