Children’s Health 101:
An Ounce of Prevention is Worth a Pound of Cure

It’s been said, “The only job that comes with no training manual is parenting”. Unless we were old enough to help take care of our siblings, most of us enter this new frontier with little or no experience. We don’t want to take chances with our children’s health yet it seems to be the very first thing we worry about. A child may get sick sooner or later, but there are probably more ways to prevent illness and fortify children’s health than you know.

Since our American health care system is more geared to treating illness than preventing it, the prevention part is up to us. We don’t have to fly into the first health emergency by the seat of our pants! The trick is to get plenty of children’s health information in calm times, before a storm. This makes a huge difference in the continued good health of our kids.

To get you started in preventive wellness for children’s health, here are some simple tips. Find in-depth information about each topic on the left navigation bar:

  • Children and Medicine – Babies and small children need time to develop their own Immune Systems. We interfere with their developing immunities by making prescription medicine such as steroids and antibiotics our first resource. Their bodies can either become dependent on the medication or reject it when really needed.
  • Food Allergies – Children exhibit many common food allergies early, including dairy, sugar, wheat, peanuts, and food dye. Food allergy symptoms can mimic or contribute to asthma, bronchitis, colic, infections, digestive disturbances and ADD/ADHD-type behaviors.
  • Daily Nutrition – Children simply must learn good food-group inclusion habits and relaxed eating situations. Besides not giving them that second glass of sugary chocolate milk, adult food behavior and the family’s schedule can deeply impact this area.
  • Daily Supplementation - Children’s health and immunities can be enhanced early with homeopathically (not synthetically) formulated antioxidant vitamins and minerals, preventive herbs, essential fatty acids, and probiotics.
  • Common Infections – The most common infections, like ear and sinus, can be dealt with naturally in the absence of dire symptoms. Antibiotics are good for bacterial, not viral, fungal or combination infections, and should be left for certain circumstances. “Superbugs” which become resistant to antibiotics endanger our children’s health.
