Headlice and Nits Safe Natural Treatments
Author: Wayne Mcdonald
If you are like most parents, you want a safe and effective treatment for head lice. Most treatments are toxic and are not recommended for toddlers. Here are three different treatments from parents. As always, this is not medical advice. Please check with your doctor if you have any concerns.
Treatment#1
Combine 1/2 tsp. each of Eucalyptus, Pennyroyal and Rosemary. Then add 2 1/2 tbls. pure olive oil. An Adult needs to try the mixture on his/her skin to make sure it doesn't burn. If it does, add more olive oil. After washing your child's hair with very hot water (as hot as the child can stand! ) Comb the oil mixture through hair with a regular comb (throw away kind) Then use a flea comb, comb out any nits or eggs. Tie a cotton scarf around child's head and leave on over night. It may tingle, but if it burns wash out immediately and dilute the mixture and try again.
THE NEXT MORNING
Wash hair with a good tea tree shampoo. This should take care of th
Mold Exposure Symptoms In Children Are Easy To Identify If You Know What To Look For
Author: Jim Corkern
If your home contains almost any kind of mold, your children and pets are probably going to be the first ones that show symptoms, especially if they have any allergies or respiratory conditions like asthma or become sick easily.
If you notice your child having any trouble with his or her respiratory system and cannot seem to find the cause, checking your household for mold growth might be a good idea.
The symptoms of mold exposure are typically very similar to allergy symptoms, so you may initially mistake them for the symptoms of the child's allergies. Your child's pediatrician may claim that it is just seasonal allergies, but in reality, it may be your home that has the issue.
Persistent respiratory symptoms like sneezing, hoarseness, rhinitis, eye irritation, and blocked noses can occur as well as dry coughing, productive coughing, and sometimes wheezing.
Skin symptoms such as itching and redness also tend to arise in certain uncover
Mold Allergy Problems Sometimes Have Terrible Effects On Children
Author: Jim Corkern
Allergies are an inconvenience for everyone who has them and there are billions of people in the world who suffer from them every day. Whether it is an allergy to pollen, grass, pet dander, or mold, the symptoms are usually about the same.
They can be anything from a runny nose and a pair of itchy eyes all the way to swelling of the face and neck or even the entire body.
Most allergy symptoms are only prevalent from the spring to fall, but allergies that are caused by things like pet dander and mold show themselves the whole year because they are not related to the outdoor growing season.
Mold living in your home does not freeze and lie dormant like it does in the outdoor environment and can pose a serious health risk for anyone, not just those members of your household that have allergies.
People that have allergies, however, are more likely to feel the affects of mold exposure sooner than the rest of us. Mold exposure tends to aggravat
