HEALTH REPORT
Happy, Healthy
The list of health problems that can affect small children is long and not pleasant, ranging from teething pain, to coughs, colds and fevers. In most cases, a healthy diet and exercise provide enough resilience to combat common ailments. Both conventional medicine and natural self-help measures play important roles in supporting children when they are ill, so that their self-healing systems can be strengthened with rest. However, little children are constantly on the move, exploring, learning, playing and developing opinions about what they do and do not like to eat (sometimes daily). So, as any parent will attest, it can be challenging to ensure their child is getting all the vitamins, minerals, protein and energy that their bodies need every day, especially if they are tired, have picked up a virus, or are a fussy eater. Prevention and treatment The Go Vita team of natural health experts has compiled a guide to nutrients and natural remedies that play key roles in children’s growth and development, which you can use to stock your medicine cabinet. A child’s immune system is constantly being exposed to new, potentially harmful organisms. Nutritional tonics provide a gentle back-up to primary treatments.
