for HAPPINESS & JOY!  I really dislike when our grand babies get sick.  The worst time of the year is Cold & Flu Season from October - February here in Utah.  Here is a little info on the stomach flu and Aunty Faga's Doterra Regimen that will keep your babies feeling good during the Holiday Season:

Causes of Stomach Flu

Stomach flu is caused by a variety of bacteria and viruses, which damage the cells in the small intestine. This damage causes fluid leakage in cells and eventually leads to watery diarrhea. The most common virus responsible for stomach flu in children is rotavirus. Its symptoms begin to appear a day or two after exposure. It causes vomiting and water diarrhea, which continues for 3 to 8 days. It is also characterized by fever and abdominal pain. This virus can also infect adults who come in close contact with the infected child. In adults, the symptoms are comparatively milder. Rotavirus infections are most commonly noticed in the United States between November and April.

Aunty Faga's Doterra Regimen for Stomach Flu:

• 1 drop On Guard - a potent addition to a defensive health strategy against seasonal threats and infectious outbreaks
• 1 drop DigestZen - an oil that strikes fear to all stomach flu everywhere. I rub these two oils on the bottoms of the kids' feet almost every hour
• 1 drop Fractionated Coconut Oil (optional) - a carrier oil used to dilute essential oils in case of skin irritation

I put these oils on the bottom of my babies' feet every hour until they feel better.

Why apply oils on the bottoms of the feet?

Putting oils on the bottom of your feet is the best way to apply oils topically. Your feet aren't sensitive to a potentially warm oil like On Guard or to the tingling of the peppermint in DigestZen. 

Also, it's the most efficient place to get the oil absorbed into the body and send it to it's appropriate destination.

Here's to HAPPY & HEALTHY Holiday Season! 

Thank you for reading & Happy Oiling,
