NONTOXIC KID CARE
Unless our kids are sick, we don’t do or give much – bath time is simply baking soda and warm water, and castile soap if needed. Tallow and coconut oil are our go-to moisturizers, and supplements are minimal but purposeful. Everything we give most often is listed below!
Every morning:
.5 oz of Daily Build from LivePure – our favorite methylated daily vitamin (I take it too!). It’s liquid and tastes yummy so it’s easy for them to take, and doesn’t upset their tummies. No bad stuff, AT ALL and no fillers.
Every night:
CalciuMK from LivePure – the most bioavailable form of magnesium and calcium and tastes like strawberry yogurt. Magnesium calms their little bodies and slows their busy minds while the extra calcium helps build strong bones and arteries.
Magnesium oil spray on their feet. Again, triggering the body to calm down. And magnesium is essential for proper functioning of the body and brain, as well as instrumental in the body’s natural detoxification process, which happens at night.
When a little stressed:
Goyin from LivePure is a blend of ancient superfruits that calms your nervous system immediately. It’s my go-to for any time a child feels a little out of sorts, stressed or just “off.” It’s a great tool to use before homeschool for my oldest, and a great social anxiety calmer, too.
When a little sick, or about to be sick:
Noni from LivePure is the holy grail. An ancient superfruit that, IMO, prepares your body to fight off any free-radicals, making it nearly impossible to catch a virus. It’s beautiful. Warning – it’s BITTER so mix with some juice or Goyin to help them get it down. And take with food.
Mary Ruth’s elderberry is a wonderful antioxidant and tastes bomb, too. We dose only when there is something going around, not every day. I love this no-fillers and all natural brand, too.
Chestal or Cold Calm are my go-to supps when things have actually hit and both work wonderfully. Boiron is a homeopathic brand and these supplements do not disappoint.
For skin or muscle first aid:
Arnica and topical magnesium are essential. This mag spray combined with this arnica cream will get any muscle ache, bruise or bump taken care of fast.
Tallow heals everything and we use tallow in place of most antibacterial ointments if needed. It’s also a great skin moisturizer on the daily.
