Excellent and well deserved rant I would say! It’s tough when the kids get sick that’s for sure, plus it makes us question where the hell they got it. Life moves on though!
I was reading from some great holistic doctors that one of the difficult things about this obsession with not being sick is that it puts us in an even more difficult situation, we are at an immunity deficit. For our immune systems to work adequately we need to be sick every so often so the defenses stay well so we don’t get incredibly sick. I think it makes pretty good sense if you ask me!
That being said, I see you are astute with the essential oils! One of them that we always have on hand and will apply and put in the diffuser is Four Thieves. It’s eucalyptus and some others but damn that stuff is great for killing germs!
What I’ve known and had in the house for a while before I actually used it was colloidal silver! That stuff is fantastic! I had a sore throat coming on, had some post nasal drip and I took that stuff as drops under my tongue 3 times a day and I felt it go away in two days. That stuff is awesome shit! A bit expensive but it worked very well and I felt so much better, a lot faster by using it!
Feel free to rant here any time, I filled a void by making it and it’s a lot of fun to see what people come up with hahaha. Welcome! :D
Thank you! I actually enjoyed releasing this rant. 😄
Yes, we are always questioning where it came from. It seems just playing outside does it or when we make a quick run to the store. This is such a different time. When we were growing up we practically lived outside (out there everyday) and we didn't get sick as much as this generation does. 😳
I agree that does make sense. I know that even though it sucks and is frustrating that they keep getting sick, this will only make them stronger and more immune to stuff later on. We learned a long time ago that having a fever is actually a good thing and not a bad thing because it is a sign your body is fighting whatever is attacking it. We just can't let them get to high.
Oh yes, it's funny you said that because we use Young Living essential oils and our most used and favored oil is Thieves. It's ingestible so we go around dropping it in mouths for prevention.
I’ve heard about colloidal silver but never used it. I think it’s about time I look into that. Thanks for the tip!
Thanks so much for the welcome and support. I applaud you for making this community. It felt really good to let all that out. I’m sure you’ll be seeing me again. 😁
