I’ve had a lot of parents reaching out lately about childhood health concerns— just in the last few weeks: HFM, water warts, staph, other skin issues, & now canker sores. 💛

When a child develops canker sores, it’s rarely “just random.”
In many cases, it’s the body giving us information.

Canker sores are often connected to gut health, reactions to certain foods, or environmental allergens.
Sugar is one of the biggest contributors: acidic, spicy foods & gluten close behind.
Something many people don’t realize: if someone reacts strongly to acidic foods, it can be a sign of vit. deficiencies, especially B5 & niacin. So “avoiding acidic food” really isn’t the answer. Correcting the deficiency is!

I recommend stepping back & looking at the whole body, not just the symptom.

A few things to consider:

✨ 1. A whole-body approach
Strengthening the inner terrain — the gut, immune system, & overall vitality — helps the body handle stressors without reacting so strongly.
This is the foundation of the HP program, which focuses on building immune memory rather than constantly putting out fires.

✨ 2. Gut testing
If this is recurring, a microbiome gut test can be incredibly helpful to identify specific imbalances instead of guessing.

Also good to know: there are different types of canker sores, w/ different causes & solutions — so what works for one child may not work for another.

Supportive options that may help in the meantime (I’ll add to your Fullscript):
• Borax (a homeopathic remedy often used for canker sores)
• Addressing common deficiencies like B vitamins, zinc, & iron
• Supportive supplements such as Merc Sol & DGL
• Ice to reduce pain & swelling
• Avoid rough, spicy, & acidic foods
• Good-quality yogurt to support the gut

Another thing to consider ... are they canker sores or HSV-1 cold sore? Although the treatment is similar, one is contagious the other isn’t. One is a virus, the other isn’t. The herpes virus can remain dormant in nerve cells, you’d definitely want to include a viral detox!!!

If you’re feeling overwhelmed or unsure where to start — especially when it comes to your child’s health — please hear this:

Someone messaged, not feeling well during their travels due to excessive glade plug ins !!!!🤮

When you travel, it’s important to think (ahead of time) about susceptibility and exposure ….are you, or someone you’re traveling with, prone to headaches? Cramps? Backaches? Sinus issues? And then what area are you going to?? Like what will you be exposed to? If we go to Florida I might think mold. if we go overseas, I might think parasites. I would then even do stuff ahead of time with oversee travels I’m thinking … Increase stomach acid and protect the gut lining… Okra, aloe vera juice, and slippery elm bark powder create a soothing, gel-like barrier over the stomach lining. Probiotic supplements, especially those containing Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium, help maintain a healthy, thick mucus layer.

For her with asthma .. of course know triggers, PNC and other lung supplements and for sinus stuff issue Rachael‘s remedy before and during travels , you really get any inflammation down ahead of time . Also neti pot. Both also might want to do more Pure Body… ONE of the many benefits…it is a binder that is gentle and effective. Binders attract, attached, & expel… This will help lower the body burden.

In the meantime, for this trip, I would suggest opening windows, using a fan to help ventilate, doing Rachael‘s remedy and neti pot if you have them with. Simmering cinnamon, orange, lemon on the stove. Or even simmer essential oils. Clean surfaces. Place activated charcoal or bowls of baking soda in affected rooms to absorb lingering odors. and if you’re going to be there for a while, deep clean textiles.

If you have some travels coming up and you would like to discuss your susceptibilities and exposures and what can be done ahead of time… Feel free to make an appointment. We can even chat for 15 minutes to a half hour. I’d love to help you out.

This might be surprising, but I don’t believe it’s necessary to run lab panels on healthy, little ones just to “check in” (I’m talking about little ones, like toddlers).

Instead, my focus is on building inner vitality — so their bodies are resilient enough to handle the stressors they will encounter as they grow. (See HP Program for more info).

Here’s how I think about it 👇

Key takeaways for parents:
• If a child is “deficient,” I address diet, but often it’s an absorption issue, so a gut test is more appropriate
• Gut health and the microbiome play a HUGE role in immunity, skin, hormones, and development
• Rather than blood labs, stool or saliva testing is often more appropriate for this age range
• If symptoms are present (skin issues, frequent illness, digestion concerns), that’s when I dig deeper

Tests I often recommend that are appropriate for this age and VERY informative:
✔️ Comprehensive Stool Analysis (if using Tiny Health ask for Pro for the first test)

✔️ OAT test

✔️ Mycotoxin test (mold)

✔️ Heavy Metal and Essential Elements

When I would consider testing even without symptoms:
• If parent has an autoimmune condition and wants insight before puberty (around age 8)
• If a child was born via C-section and missed early microbiota exposure (early gut test recommended)

The goal is to support the body early so issues don’t develop later.

💛 If you’re unsure what your child actually needs, you don’t have to figure it out alone.
📅 I work with parents to create thoughtful, gentle, and individualized care plans.

Healthy kids start from the inside out — and I’d be honored to support your family.

✨ Let’s talk STAPH + childhood immune stuff ✨
Recap from appointment:
Staph is a type of bacteria that many people carry in their nose or on their skin w/o any issues at all. When it does turn into an infection, it usually means it’s been hanging around for a while — leading to an imbalance between good/bad bacteria & a weakened immune system.

It can show up differently in different people:
• boils
• impetigo
• other skin infections

Whatever it looks like, it does need to be addressed so it doesn’t move deeper into the body (like the bloodstream).

💡 Important to remember:
Kids actually handle illness better than adults.

A 2-year-old with a 102 fever — often still playing, still moving.
Now picture an 80-year-old w/ that same fever… completely wiped out.

Early & broad exposure helps the immune system learn, adapt, & build memory. That’s how we end up with a more balanced, less reactive immune system as adults — one that’s protective against infections & allergies.

🌱 So what do I suggest?

➡️ Whole-body approach
Strengthen the inner terrain and inner vitality so the body can handle stressors better.
This is exactly what the HP program is designed to do — build immune memory.

➡️ Consider a gut test
So you know specifically what’s missing instead of guessing.

🦠 Probiotics + Staph
The most researched probiotic for staph is B. subtilis.
It’s been shown to eliminate over 95% of S. aureus colonization without disrupting the rest of the microbiome.
(In Fullscript)

🥦 Targeted nutrition matters
When you give the body the right nutrients, you’re giving the immune system the tools it needs.

• Vit. D → supports natural antimicrobial defenses
• Zinc → helps immune cells grow & communicate
• Vit. C → protects immune cells & supports skin healing

For skin issues, I almost always suggest zinc + vitamin C (also in Full Script).

🛁 Supportive home care
• Oatmeal baths for calming
• Antimicrobial e/o: (tea tree, oregano)
• ACV + aloe topically

💬 I’ve had so many people reach out lately about childhood concerns

Let me tell you a little story. A true story.

Just recently, McCoy and Lexi were around someone, that person ended up throwing up . They were around that person for about 1.5 hrs

Days later Lexi got , and Maela. Days after that Laylend got sick. Days after that McCoy got sick. There was a chain reaction of about roughly 10 people that got sick. . Yes, 😭

At one point, when Lexi recovered, she went out of town because that was scheduled. I told McCoy if he gets sick I will come over because I know he can’t be sick and take care of 2 kids

he got sick. 😓

I was packing up, heading over, seriously felt like I was going into a war zone and would be defeated. I brought my Airdoctors, my disinfectants, a few gut health support stuff and headed over. I told everyone I’m sure I will get sick, but this at least helps me mentally

Guess what… I didn’t get 𝒮𝒾𝒸𝓀! Well, I did get rundown, kinda sick. I wasn’t feeling myself for a day by any means and that was no fun. But I was not sick like everyone else. AND I never threw up.

I believe this was in large part due to a ＳＴＲＯＮＧ ! The good bacteria was stronger than the path that it was exposed to.

Key point to remember !!… now in , we have a large focus on our restoring our gut health. Even though we didn’t throw up, I’m sure it took a hit. We’re rebuilding that.

“Detoxing. “Rebuilding.

i’ll put some things on my story but if you want me to email you some info on Fulvic minerals or pure body. Comment below or send me a message.
-keep these things in mind as well for gut health:

Your body is always trying to maintain homeostasis. You don’t “feel” that. In fact, when symptoms appear, that means the body has lost its ability to compensate the body has been struggling with that issue for a long, long time.

I often use calcium as an example. A person doesn’t “feel” when they’re low calcium. The body pulls calcium from the bones as it’s compensating. Do that for 20 to 50 years and after the body has lost, the ability to compensate, the person can develop osteoarthritis. They do FEEL that. It’s much easier to address low calcium than it is to reverse osteoarthritis.

by the way…⬇️ calcium doesn’t 🟰take ⬆️
Calcium.

So how do you know what you’re doing is working? The diet you’re doing, the supplements you’re taking, etc. Have you got your comprehensive lab panel done? AND know what to do about it?
If so, great! Keep it up.
If not, Let’s get that done. 🙌

Psalm 118:24
“This is the day the LORD has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it,” it’s a wonderful reminder to find joy and gratitude in each new day, seeing it as a gift from God, regardless of challenges, focusing on new opportunities and His blessings.

2025 was another great year of growth.

Seasons change ... & each season has a purpose.

As we shift from season to season it reminds me of a book Tom and I read, “The 4 Seasons of Marriage; Secrets to a Lasting Marriage”. It also reminds me of a marriage retreat we spoke at where this was one of the foundational topics.

The growth that results in nature from winters is developing deep roots! Winter turns into spring (where the water and nutrients go deep), spring into summer where the fruits of emerges.

Each season has a purpose. Embrace it. Every good, strong, solid, happy marriage has at least one thing in common … They’ve made it through some hard times.

If you’re in a winter season of marriage, or your health, connect with me and let’s move you forward!

Tom has definitely “tested my patience” this week 😀
Not in the typical sense, but EVERY DAY this week, i thought “today’s the day!”

We have some big plans rolling out (and that will take time, I get it. I’ll continue to touch on that as we go. For a little sneak peek, look at pic two)

BUT this week….. soooooo close to accomplishing our initial ministry product release.

Since Covid, so many people have struggled with health and immunity (and realized the dangers in “the western medicine” answers aka vaxines). There IS a safe option to stimulate the immune system, focusing on vitality and robust health!

OK … here’s one teaser… there’s life long immune protection from many childhood illnesses that people don’t get when they vaxinate (but instead, they definitely get the burden!)

Can’t wait to make this available for you soon! Stay tuned 🩶🙌-

A comfortable 71. That's what most people live year round! Whether it's AC or heat, moving from house or car ... we tend to like it goldilocks style "juuuuust right".

That's NOT good for our health! It is not good for our mitochondria. It is not good for metabolic health or weight gain.

When you get cold, your body activates brown fat, which contains many mitochondria that help generate heat by burning calories.

We USE brown fat when we are cold. This helps with weight loss and stimulates mitochondria! Most "aging symptoms" (fatigue, loss of muscle tone, soreness, cognitive decline, etc) are due to mitochondria declining.

Could it be that a large part of poor health in our culture is our desire for comfort and ease? I think so!

a few suggestions to maintain good health:
step outside of your comfort zone
get hot
get cold
get plenty of sunshine and exercise

Have you noticed kids don't get as cold as adults? They have more brown fat. Newborns have the most brown fat because they do not have the ability to shiver to warm up.

These kids during these hunting trips ... they were hot, they were cold, they worked hard, they played harder, they were not well rested .... but they were happy (for the most part 🙂. I guess I'd say those things were true of all of us!

If you'd like tips on how to stimulate brown fat, increase metabolism, optimize mitochondrial health to optimize aging, let's get something scheduled!
