We use some ayurvedic products if cold is not severe, if severe we go to doctor. And we wash hands often. I use sanitizer often to keep hands clean.

Since we are in the thick of winter here and I’ve had 3 of my 4 girls sick the past week I was just wondering what others do to ward off or treat all those annoying illnesses that are so prevalent in winter.

I generally try and get my girls to rest and just wait it out and try and make them comfortable but I wondered if anyone here had any wonderful remedies or take preventative measures.

homeopathy rerally works for us
Oscillococcinum as preventive measure:

I give my little guy loads of organic green tea and this high antioxidant supplement called Orac Super 7, as well as Emergen-C’s.
