Catherine, mother of three children (12 years old, 8 years old, 5 years old)

I see that they are less and less sick when they grow up, especially when they have passed the stage of kindergarten. I make sure to buy seasonal products without pesticides ... I try to make balanced meals and to make them eat fruit every day ... With the influenza A, I became again stricter concerning the principles of elementary hygiene (wash your hands, cover your mouth when you cough ...). Finally, I use some basic products in homeopathy, and am more and more sensitive to this method.

I am not necessarily worried, because I am lucky to have children in good health. They had a lot of ear infections, but never bronchiolitis, they do not suffer from asthma ... Every year, before the winter, they follow homeopathic treatments, prescribed by their pediatrician. I urge them to blow their noses properly, and since the arrival of the influenza A, I insist much more on the need to wash their hands. This is now the first thing they do when they come home from school.

I am not a follower of self-medication and do not resort to preventive treatments: I do not wish that the taking of capsules become for my children a banal gesture. Better to squeeze an orange and make them a good fruit juice than to give them a tablet! I am very vigilant about the variety of meals, so that my daughters find all the vitamins they need. Take care of their diet, encourage them to play sports and chat with them, I think it's essential to help them feel good.
