Get Your Child's Immunity On

The immunity messages have been coming through, the fall season is upon us and soon the winter season will be in force. Along with that comes immune system challenges.

My advice is to always be preventive when it comes to seasonal immunity challenges. Both my boys are taking supplements and will eontinue to take them through the season. Here are their favourites:

Burrough Boys' Supplements
Kids Mightyvits - a full range of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants and phytonutrients that deliver whole food multinutrient support to your child's general health and well being. Mightyvits benefits from Orgen kids a nutrient dense food based superfruit plant and vegetable complex. Free of preservatives and artificial colors and flavours.

Chewable Vit C - combines pure orange essential oil with proprietary blend of camu camu, acerola, cherry and rose hips fruit powder to create a powerful immune supporting supplement. These ingredients deliver desirable polyphenols, carotenoids, and optimal amounts of vit c in a convenient chewable tablet.

Kids MightyPro - is a unique synergistic blend of prebiotics and probiotics in a supplement specially formulated for children. Packaged in one easy dose packet that can be taken almost anywhere you go this supplement features over 8 billion active, live cultures to support digestive and immune health.


Vitamin D/K3 drops - this liquid form is easy to take directly on the tongue. (not avail from Young Living)


Essential Oils To Support Immunity

Snifflease/ Refresh/ RC/Ravinsara - any of these oils are beneficial for respiratory concerns.

Thieves - this is the most common immune boosting proprietary blend that is used, this can be found in Young Living's premium starter kit, so it has become a familiar family essential oil blend. It also has an appealing aroma with a scent that reminds many of Christmas.

Immupower - this is a another powerful and protective blend that you may not be aware of, it does raise the frequency of the immune system. The aroma is unique with the add of cumin essential oil.


Tummygize/Digize- this blend is a winner to have in the first aid cabinet for any tummy issues including women who have hormonal pains. If your child has been throwing up, with and upset stomach or having toilet problems, apply this as quickly as you can.



Immunity Roller

If you are a collector of essential oils and like to make your own roll ons, add this one to your cabinet of must haves for your family or next to your bed for easy application.


Make your own in a 10mL glass roller bottle with:


  • 8 drops of Young Living thieves essential oil
  • 8 drops of Young Living lemon essential oil
  • 6 drops of Young Living frankincense essential oil
  • 3 drops of Young Living oregano essential oil
  • 3 drops of Young Living tea tree essential oil
  • Top bottle with carrier oil of choice (I prefer V6, other carriers I have used tend to go rancid unless you find a top quality base oil.)


Apply your roller topically on the bottoms of feet, along your spine, and on your back of neck and lymph nodes. 
The bottoms of feet have large pores and allow essential oils to get into the bloodstream easily, but also have a tough surface with skin that won’t be as sensitive as elsewhere on your body. There is also alot of adipose tissue there and the essential oil slow releases into the body. If you are nervous about using essential oils on kids, this is a great way to start and make sure they tolerate the oils well!
