SodaHead Celebrates Green Week

Question Technology

When you get sick do you use natural health products, or the ones you buy at the store, or prescribed medicine.

    i go to the local health food shop in my area. they sell loads of natural health products and i think they do make me feel more awake, etc.

    I like Chicken Soup and sleep.

    I don't really take anything unless I feel like I have to. I just eat some soup and go to sleep.

    No prescriptions but will use Advil on occasion. Otherwise it's natural remedies and chicken soup.

    I use natural products only

    Unless of course things get really bad. I have two children 10 and 3, my 10 yr old hasn't been on antibiotics or taken anything other than natural meds. since he was 4 and my 3 yr old has never taken anything other than natural meds..Since we stopped eating processed foods and switched to organic food and vitamins we have had nothing more than a sniffle or a sore throat. To be fair I should say my children are homeschooled and do not go to daycare, so they are not around all the germs you find in schools and daycare centers.My husband and my self haven't taken any thing other than natural meds. in about 6 years. So far so good!

    Bacterial infections need antibiotics otherwise natural products as musch as possible.
    Airborne and Zycam work for when you feel colds coming on.
    Sinusbuster works for sinus issues and headaches.

    Right now, I haven't found any natural treatments for acute pain or diabetes, so I take prescription medications for that.

    I do try to supplement my diet with some vitamins, minerals and other homeopathic stuff... but I have to watch them pretty carefully.

    whatever works. i wish natural products worked better than they do because then that would be all i would use. i hate the doctor's office but if i am dying i will drag myself there.

    I use natural products to keep my immune system in great shape but if I do get sick in spite of that I go the Chicken Soup and sleep and more natural product way first.

    I like that remedy, too. Plus some old movies and a big blanket and comfy chair or sofa. Or football games are good to fall asleep to.
