For children over 12 months.... (Honey can contain spores of the bacteria clostridium botulinum, which can produce a potent neurotoxin).

Yet for the bigger kiddos... it's a wonderful and natural sweet treat!

Honey has been treasured for thousands of years, not just for its golden deliciousness, but for its remarkable health properties. This natural wonder offers unique benefits for children while requiring some important safety considerations.

Raw honey is packed with antioxidants, enzymes, and antimicrobial compounds that can support your child's health. Studies show honey can be more effective than some over-the-counter cough medicines for children over 12 months - a teaspoon before bedtime can calm nighttime coughing and improve sleep. Its natural antibacterial properties also make it excellent for treating minor cuts and scrapes, while the prebiotics in honey promote healthy gut bacteria and immune function.

Unlike processed sugars, honey provides sustained energy along with trace vitamins and minerals, making it a healthier sweetener option for kids' snacks and meals. It can help soothe sore throats, support wound healing, and even aid digestion when used in moderation.

Critical safety note: Never give honey to babies under 12 months old, as it can contain spores that cause infant botulism. For older children, while honey is generally safe and beneficial, it's still a sugar and should be used in moderation as part of a balanced diet. Always choose raw, unprocessed honey when possible to maximize its natural health benefits.

As pediatric naturopaths, we often see parents concerned about their baby's eczema.

Please note - these are general recommendations and should not be taken as specific medical advice. (Reach out to us to get started on customized holistic support for your family!)

Here are some natural treatment strategies to manage this common condition:

1. Gentle Skin Care
Use fragrance-free, chemical-free cleansers and limit baths to 10-15 minutes in lukewarm water. Apply a moisturizer immediately after bathing.

2. Moisturizers
Apply thick moisturizers or natural oils, like coconut or almond oil, frequently to maintain skin hydration.

3. Identify Triggers
Watch for food sensitivities (like dairy or nuts) and environmental irritants (such as harsh detergents). Switching to hypoallergenic products can help.

4. Dietary Considerations
For breastfeeding mothers, consider incorporating omega-3-rich foods into the diet. For formula-fed babies, consult your pediatrician about hypoallergenic options.

5. Herbal Remedies
Look for creams containing soothing herbs like chamomile and calendula, but consult with a naturopath before use.

6. Environment and Hydration
Keep your baby hydrated and maintain a humid environment to prevent dryness.

7. Stress Management
Create a calm environment to help reduce flare-ups, using gentle massage or calming music.

8. Sun Exposure
Moderate sunlight can boost vitamin D, which supports skin health. Just avoid excessive exposure and always protect your baby’s skin.

Please note - these are general recommendations and should not be taken as specific medical advice.

Managing eczema naturally is a holistic process involving skin care, proper hydration, and diet. With patience and the right approach, you can help your baby find relief and improve their skin health naturally. Consult with a pediatric naturopath for personalized advice.
