Homeopathic Remedies for Children
I am fully convinced that God, the Creator of all things created a perfect environment for humans to live on. In saying that, He has provided all resources for our betterment and livelihood, that is...anything that mankind hasn't ruined in ignorance at this point in time.
While I remain open-minded to modern day care, I am fully aware that I have a responsibility to the personal care of myself and my family. For me, that means I need to not only understand how my body and my children's bodies work, but I need to understand and incorporate what I understand to be "normal" for my family, may not necessarily fit what a doctor sees as normal. After all I am an expert in my field, being a mom in MY family. In saying that, I love all things natural and organic. While I am not 100% organic, it is my first choice of treatment. I must say, I get frustrated if not angry, that homeopathic remedies are expensive. What's up with that anyway?? Why is what is supposed to "natural" more expensive that what is synthetic? I guess I'll save that sentiment for another post.
In any event, I was directed to a website called Colic Calm that sells homeopathic gripe water. It is a very informative website that lists various herbs used in it's gripe water. It has other articles such as:
The Cause and Treatment of Infant, Newborn and Baby Gas Problems
The Cause and Treatment of Infant Reflux
The website has a flash presentation on how specific herbs work in their product. Check it out!
