😷Endless Winter cough? Here are my go-tos as a naturopathic doctor 🤧

👇Cough syrups👇
✨ Honey – soothing + antimicrobial. Garlic-infused is best. 🚫 Not for babies under 1 year.
✨ Elderberry cough syrup - supports immune response + cough relief.
✨ Ivy leaf extract - helps loosen mucus + calm coughs.

👇Chest rubs👇
✨ Substance chest rub
✨ Castor oil on the chest + 1 drop eucalyptus to open the airways

👇Diffuser👇
✨ 2–3 drops sage, thyme & eucalyptus. ⚠️ Avoid if pregnant.

👇Nasal saline spray👇
✨ - keeps passages hydrated & clear

👇Fluids, fluids, fluids👇
✨Warm teas, broths, water = thinner mucus + faster recovery

Hope this helps you get through cough season a little easier ❤️

Do my kids really need electrolytes? 🤔💧

As a naturopathic doctor and a mama of busy little ones, this is a question I hear a lot—and one I’ve asked myself too!!

Here’s the truth👇

🌿 Most healthy kids don’t need daily electrolyte drinks—especially if they’re eating a balanced diet and staying hydrated with good ol’ water. BUT there are times when adding a little boost makes sense:

✅ After a tummy bug (vomiting/diarrhea)
✅ Long, hot days outside
✅ Intense sports or activities with heavy sweating
✅ When water just isn’t cutting it and they need a nudge to drink more

💡 I like to keep it natural when possible—think coconut water, a pinch of sea salt + a squeeze of citrus in water. Best to steer clear of all those coloured drinks loaded with sugar! 🤓

Always listen to your gut (and your child’s!)—you know them best 💛

Have you ever used electrolytes for your kiddos? Let’s me know! 👇

Another cough…😷

My littlest gets hit hard with every that comes his way. So naturally I load him up on all the and 🌿

Another go-to at the onset of the dreaded is a diffuser with essential oils. A few of the top herbs to diffuse 👇

🌿 - known for its -microbial benefits, clears congestion and soothes a cough by loosening mucus in the chest/ throat

🌿 - powerful anti-bacterial / anti- viral, reduces inflammation so you can breathe easier and alleviates persistent coughing

🌿 - natural anti-bacterial and anti-fungal, loosens a wet cough and soothes irritation in the respiratory tract

These are just a few of the powerful herbs we use to support our respiratory system!

Reminder to place the diffuser out of reach of your child!!!!

Dealing with this sick boy on/ off this season has been a challenge! He (naturally!) loses his appetite for food when he’s fighting a 🦠 so I’ve started making my own pouches to keep him 💪

Here’s what I’ve been adding to my blender 👇 (I have a that steams and blends for me to make this process more simple)

✨boil up a cup of 3 mixed veggies (carrots, cauliflower, celery, broccoli, squash, peas, etc)
✨add 1/4 cup cooked quinoa
✨add 2-3 tbsp applesauce or 1/2 banana
✨add 2-3 tbsp h**p seeds
✨add 1/4 cup frozen berries

Blend it up and voila! Ready to serve. 👌😋 This way I know he’s getting some good stuff into his body despite his lack of desire to want to eat!

P.S. he’d easily crush 3 of these pouches in a day if I’d let him 😂
