Protecting Your Family From Poor Air Quality, Naturally!
January 2025 -
Sign in below for my free eBook on supporting your health through exposure to smoke and poor air quality.
The wildfires in California this month are bringing smoke exposure to thousands of families. Over the days, weeks and months that follow, there are many ways to naturally support healthy recovery and on-going symptoms such as coughing. All of these are valuable in the first acute stage of exposure also, just as soon as everyone is safely out of harm’s way. My heart goes out to all who are impacted by this ghastly catastrophe.
PS: this Ebook was originally written for worried families experiencing a summer of degraded air quality. It strikes a brighter note than I would normal use with those who’ve just escaped with their lives, but the info is spot on. Hope this helps! Love Beth
Poor air quality is increasingly common, bringing challenges to family health.
Natural health clients have been expressing concerns, and in some cases symptoms, that their families are experiencing. These conversations, and the many questions raised on the 1000 Hours Outside group page too, led Ginny Yurich and I to have a discussion about the poor air quality and our families’ health on her podcast. (You won’t want to miss this one, find it here.) Even though we covered so much, there was alot of specific suggestions that we were not able to get to. So I’ve gathered all my notes and recommendations into a free eBook! It encompassed lifestyle ideas, effective remedies and supplements, and the best devices available to help us staying healthy and robust through air quality challenges. A sampling follows below.
Lets’s reduce the fear and empower the health of our communities with solid naturopathic information. Enter your email below for an instant 19-page download packed with ideas for every family member.
Here’s a sampling of the dozens of eBook ideas to get you started if your family has been through smokey conditions, or are being exposed to daily poor air quality:
#1. Homeopathic Carbo Veg.
Carbo Veg is the #1 homeopathic remedy when there has been smoke inhalation. It’s also indicated in symptoms of hoarseness, spasmodic cough, and the feeling of not being able to get enough oxygen in the lungs.
#2. Homeopathic Silica 200c
Silica 200c at this higher potency helps “drive out foreign objects from the body”, including particulate from the lungs.
#3. Mallow
Herb valued for how it soothes dry, irritated lungs
#4. Vitamin C
Vitamin C cannot be made by the body and must be ingested through food or supplementation. It’s an especially critical nutrient when the body needs to detox, is coping with acute need for anti-oxidants, or has respiratory conditions.
#5. Liposomal Glutathione
Liposomal Glutathione is a spectacular anti-oxidant; anti-oxidants are needed daily, but massively when there has been exposure to toxins, caustic agents, or tissue damage.
#6. Improve Indoor Air Quality
It will speed recovery time if the body has cleaner air even just during sleeping. The cleaner the better. The first amazing step may be just being out of the direct smoke zone. As it becomes possible, the cleaner the better with air filters, remedies to assist the body in clearing and healing the lungs, and then on keeping sleep zones as neutral as possible.
For families who are working on cleaner air in general, they can work on the daily issues. Many common products increase the toxins that the body has to clear out on a daily basis just to get by. This tends to increase inflammation, and can wear out the body’s immune system and detox system by keeping it busy all the time.
Family members of every age will have better short and long-term health with toxin-neutral sleeping areas free of chemical contaminants of all descriptions, which allows the body a true rest and restoration period each day. This means reducing artificial scents like laundry soap that ‘smells good even when the clothes are dirty’, aromatic plug-ins, and commercially scented candles.
