Let's chat about it....
Miralax has not been approved for use over 7 days or for those under 17 years old. Long term use can also come with side effects that include gut dysbiosis, anxiety, learning delays, altered immune function, behavioral issues and more. There's more natural options that can include minerals, healthy fats, eliminating food sensitivities, improving bile flow, magnesium citrate or oxide and vitamin C, and addressing gut imbalances.
Food, dyes and toxins play a crucial role in the health of every cell, process, organ and inflammation. Processed foods, dyes, and toxins have been linked to behavioral issues, inflammation, immune dysfunction and gut imbalances.
Bleach baths and steroids for eczema are a bandaids approach that don't address the underlying immune dysfunction and inflammation showing up on the skin that is being driven by gut imbalances, a full toxin bucket, deficiencies, stress, and/or impaired detox and drainage. Bleach baths are also toxic. There's so much hope for eczema in addressing root causes and triggers.
Tylenol post vaxs can weaken the immune response, deplete glutathione and have even been shown to increase the risk of autism according to a 2008 study PMID: 18445737 There's other options that include naturprofen, homeopathics, epsom salt baths, etc. Not saying there's never a time a place just sharing information that isn't always presented.
Kids will just grow out of it is a disservice because if the underlying immune dysfunction, inflammation and gut imbalances are not addressed they can grow into autoimmune conditions and other inflammatory conditions. The manifestation just shifts.
The majority of ear infections are viral and can be influenced by drainage, diet, immune function, gut health and more. Helpful supports include chiropractic, CST, food sensitivity elimination, gut microbiome balancing, and stressing mold toxicity if present. Antibiotics can have a time and place but chronic use can lead to increases gut dysbiosis and long term immune dysregulation.
Each kid is unique and different with different root causes, environment, stressors and factors and therefore deserves a personalized approach.
