#TestimonyTuesday

Lindsey shares:

“We chose MiraLax. We didn’t know better and being new parents, we just trusted the SPECIALIST. After learning the side effects of MiraLax (not here to judge if your babies are using it. Just encourage you to research it yourself) we decided we would try to control Elliana’s tummy troubles naturally. We were ALWAYS trying new things and very frustrated when nothing would work.

Fast forward to learning about gut health. We started Ana on our two in one multivitamin and probiotic for kids. Woahhh. This girls belly was feeling GOOD! She was excusing herself to the bathroom more regularly and wasn’t in pain when going. We recently added a prebiotic drink from the kids line as well and let’s just say Elliana is saying “privacy please” at least once a day! (She has said this when she’s pooping since she was potty trained)

Here are the common side effects of MiraLax

  • diarrhea or loose stools.
  • gas
  • nausea.
  • stomach pain.
  • bloating
  • Along with some neuropsychiatric such as anger, depression, anxiety, and mood swings.

The side effects of the natural products she uses now are

  • healthy brain and cognitive development
  • 1 gram of gut-healthy prebiotic fiber per serving
  • Enriched with a unique blend of brain nurturing ingredients
  • Nutrients to support growing, healthy kids
  • Supplements many nutrient gaps in kids’ diets
  • Provides Lutein, an important nutrient that helps support cognitive function in kids
  • Dietary DHA intake is associated with cognitive function and behavior in young kids]
  • Good source of Choline
  • Supports growing bones, teeth, and muscles
  • Supports immune health
  • SUPPORTS DIGESTIVE HEALTH
  • 4 billion colony-forming units (per two tablets)
  • Helps support intestinal yeast balance
  • Supports digestive regularity

I feel at peace knowing we are helping her in ways that won’t harm her body and brain in the long run BUT benefit it instead. We just want the best for our kiddos, am I right?!”

Ibuprofen is a common over the counter drug used to fight fever as well as pain symptoms. The drug is used by children as well as adults on a regular basis. It is becoming more well-known that while the drug can be helpful, it can also cause gastritis. Doctors are taught that ibuprofen can cause this condition, leading to ulcers in the stomach or even upper gastrointestinal bleeding.

Every day, men and women use a variety of chemicals on the skin. From fighting acne to moisturizing and makeup, many chemicals are placed on the skin and into the body on a daily basis. Most people do not give a second though to what is being used, but one should. The skin is very absorbent and will incorporate the chemicals directly within the bloodstream. While we all think using such chemicals are helpful, they are actually causing more harm than good.
