Some of these tips are extremely practical and others are common sense but I know that sometimes reminders don't hurt.
Here are the tips brought to you by Children's Claritin:
1. Be sure to have
Children’s Claritin, the #1 pediatrician-recommended non-drowsy allergy brand,
on hand!
2. Multi-vitamins are
building blocks to having a strong immune system. Make taking a multi-vitamin
part of your child’s daily
routine.
3. Let there be light!
Mold doesn't like sunlight, so try to keep your curtains open during the day.
Should be easy during the summer
months!
4. Did you know that most pillows trap allergens, dust
mites, and bacteria? Monitor the cleanliness of the pillow your child with
allergies sleeps on and replace if necessary.
5. Back to school season means lots of laundry for many
moms. Be sure to remove laundry from the washing machine promptly.
Allowing wet clothes to sit in the washer means mold can quickly grow
there.
6. Monitor pollen counts and adjust outdoor before and
after school activities accordingly. Dry, windy days can be
particularly high in pollen.
7. Showering or
bathing at the end of the day as opposed to the morning can be helpful in
removing allergens from body surfaces and hair.
8. Stay hydrated!
Always send your child to school with a bottle of water. Drinking lots of clear
fluids through the day can help get rid
of toxins and flush out body.9. Peak pollen production typically occurs in early morning, so try to plan outside activities at other times of the day.
Enjoy your school year, and be blessed with good health and under-control allergies :)
