Remedy Reminder
Be sure to stay consistent with dosage of natural remedies during the holiday break.
As herbal and homeopathic remedies work to support balance in the body, taking a 'break' may leave you or your child at a disadvantage when school or work begins again, with the first few weeks spent trying to get back the full therapeutic effect.
In addition, consider having extra doses of remedies when additional support is needed, especially during late nights of festivities!

QUESTION 1
"Would Focus Formula™ help my 5-year-old little boy? He is taking prescription meds at this time and I would really like to get him off this type of medicine if there is something else that would help him. Thank you."
- Denise
ANSWER
Hi Denise,
Our Focus Formula is just what your son needs. In addition, we would recommend he try our BrightSpark™. Each product is effective on its own - however, the best recommendation is a combination of the two products.
BrightSpark is a 100% homeopathic remedy - which means it addresses issues at a cellular level, and therefore it is best used for acute symptoms as they occur - helping to calm and facilitate concentration immediately in the short-term. Focus Formula is a 100% herbal remedy - the properties of the active ingredients in the remedy (extracted using the full spectrum approach) get to work supporting the nervous system and the brain, helping to maintain and support stability in the body in the long-term.
For the above reasons, it is recommended that both remedies be used together, with the one supporting long-term stability and calmed mood, and the other addressing immediate issues of concentration.
In addition, with the upcoming school vacation, now is a wonderful time to begin natural remedies, as results can take up 3-6 weeks to take full effect.

QUESTION 2
"Which remedy should my son use for his nervousness? He is 10 years old. How long does it take to be effective?"
- Gina
ANSWER
Hi Gina,
For mood and emotional support in children, we can highly recommend our combination of Mindsoothe Jr.™ and PureCalm™.
Mindsoothe Jr. supports the brain's natural ability to regulate mental and emotional health in children - maintaining production of essential brain hormones and chemicals related to nervous system health and emotional well-being, thereby helping to support balanced mood and behavior. Used regularly, you should notice significant improvement within 3 - 5 weeks, although some people respond even sooner. Mindsoothe Jr. cannot be taken simultaneously with prescription medicines.
Many people like to use our PureCalm while they are waiting for the Mindsoothe Jr. to take full effect. PureCalm is wonderfully calming and relaxing without causing drowsiness. PureCalm contains selected herbs which help with the short-term, symptomatic management of stress. Unlike Mindsoothe Jr., this remedy does not have to be taken every day, but can be used as needed. You will find PureCalm very helpful during the first few weeks of taking Mindsoothe Jr.- thereafter most people find that they need to use it less and less.
For further info, please go to: Mindsoothe Jr. PureCalm
Please let us know if there is anything else we can assist you with.
Warm regards,
