Pills And Potions
These are the things I have on hand for my family. I'm sharing them with you for your consideration.
Liquid Calcium Magnesium Orange-Vanilla 2:1
Integrative Therapeutics 16 oz (constipation, bone health, and muscle pains) Product Code: SKU: ITI-10020
It tastes like a bad orange-vanilla milkshake. It keeps my boys regular, and prevents “growing pains”.
LiquiD3 Liquid Rx Vitamins 2000 IU 1 oz Product Code: SKU: RXV-3010
We take 2,000 IU three times a week. Here in the northeast, we don’t get enough D.
S.B.C.(Saccharomyces Boulardii) Douglas Labs 50 caps Product Code: SKU: DL-930250X
Whenever we have a belly upset, we take a probiotic, a non-disease causing yeast, sacchromyces boulardii. It survives antibiotic exposure, but may constipate (see above).
Nordic Berries Gummy Berries Nordic Naturals 120 berries Product Code: SKU: NORD-30120
I have found that Nordic berries can act as both multivitamin and reward for children.
DHA Junior Nordic Naturals 180 gels Product Code: SKU: NORD-03180
Another easy sell is the strawberry flavored fish oil capsule, distilled for purity.
Adults can use: Arctic Omega Lemon Liquid Nordic Naturals Product Code: SKU: NORD-04103
Men Over 40™ One Daily Iron Free Innate Response Product Code: SKU: INR-40125
My multivitamin that I take maybe once a week. Whole food, independently tested.
Women Over 40™ One Daily Innate Response Product Code: SKU: INR-40124
My wife is MUCH more consistent about taking her supplements. But over time, we found that she was getting too much and it was making her ill. The current one works better.
Garlic Extract 300mg Vital Nutrients Product Code: SKU: VN-GE
For cold prevention, garlic contains a low-grade antibiotic/antiviral.
Sambucus Black Elderberry Syrup Integrative Therapeutics Product Code: SKU: ITI-70653
This is black elderberry in a concentrated form. If I can’t find elderberry jam, I use this in addition to fresh garlic to nip colds in the bud. I also use something I call “toxic sludge,” but it is prescription only. (Throatease Wise Woman Herbals SKU: WWH-2THCO) Ask me for it if you feel yourself coming down with something.
Alive! Rice Pea Shake (vanilla) Boericke & Tafel Product Code: SKU: NW-15545
One scoop in the family smoothie. All your vitamins in a shake.
