The Easter Bunny can hurt your tummy!
Since the Easter Bunny is due very soon, let’s take a quick look at remedies that can help if your kids over-do the celebrating.
Sulphur
Pains in the abdomen, generally worse on the left side, sometimes extending into the stomach, chest and back, with obstructed respiration, nausea and anxiety. Worse at night time better for bending forwards.
Arg nit
Strong craving for sugar, but it disagrees leading to anxiety and diarrhea.
Ignatia
Sugar causes bloating of the abdomen. Colicky, griping pains in one or both sides of abdomen. Flatulent colic, especially at night. Feels as if the intestines are going to burst. The flatulence may also press on the bladder.
Belladonna
Nausea after sweets. Face may be red and pupils dilated.
Lycopodium
Extreme flatulence after sweets. Very uncomfortable, especially if clothing is too tight.
Merc viv
Desires sweets but feels worse almost immediately after eating them. Increased saliva, sometimes with nausea and metallic taste in the mouth.
Some preventative measures
Buy good quality organic Easter eggs and fewer of them.
Ration them out over the coming weeks.
Remind kids to be thorough when brushing their teeth if they have been eating sweets.
Encourage them to drink water to reduce sugar spikes.
If they feel nauseous actively encourage them to throw up, if at all possible.
Happy Homeopathy and Happy Easter!
