Giveaway- Sinupret for Kids

**GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED**

I've used random.org to choose 15 winners whom I've emailed.  (Jenell, Lucy, Rachel, Robyn, Megen, ladyvenora, Teri, Jenni, Kori, Marie, Sara, Ebie, Amanda, Rebecca, Lisa)  Please respond within 24 hours with your name and address or alternate winners will be chosen.  Thanks for participating!


Did you know that the FDA no longer recommends giving over the counter cough and cold medications to children under the age of 4, and they are even considering upping that recommendation to age 12?  This can leave a parent feeling a bit helpless.  In my "sickness protocol" post I talked about some things you can do to support a sick child's immune system including serving chicken soup, steam treatments, vitamins, and more.  Another option for supporting healthy sinus, respiratory and immune function is Sinupret.  I've not personally tried this yet but feel good about recommending it based on what I've read about the company, the ingredients, and the fact that Dr Bob Sears and Dr Jay Gordon both recommend it.  
 
Sinupret for Kids contacted me and offered give away packs to 15 of my lucky readers!  *Giveaway ends April 28th at 11:59pm*

Each Giveaway Pack Includes: 
  • A copy of Dr. Bob Sears bestselling book The Healthiest Kid in the Neighborhood
  • A sample of Sinupret
  • Yellow children's binoculars
  • Sinupret for Kids Activity Books
  • Sinupret for Kids Stickers
  • Mini Plush Bear 
So what is Sinupret?  Sinupret is a natural remedy that has been used in Germany for over 30 years and is now available in the US.  It consists of a blend of European Elder, Sorrel, Cowslip, European Vervain and Gentian and promotes healthy drainage in the upper respiratory tract, improves airflow in the nose and supports healthy mucous clearance from the nose and sinuses. In addition to supporting sinus and respiratory functions, it also supports the immune system.   For more information about Sinupret click here.  

I'm excited to host this giveaway as I posted recently about Dr Sears book and how helpful it was to getting our family started eating healthier.  I'm thrilled to be giving away 15 copies of this book along with the Sinupret samples.  To enter the giveaway, leave a comment on this post including your email address.  15 winners will be chosen and Sinupret will ship your winning package directly to you!  While you're here, browse my blog and let me know if you find any of it helpful and thanks for visiting.

My own sample package is on its way to me in the mail but I wanted to get this post up and let you know about the giveaway as soon as I could!  We have a round of sickness going through our house right now so if it arrives soon I'll put the Sinupret to work and let you know how it goes.  If you're looking for more information, here is an article by Dr Sears on staying healthy through the winter, and another Dr Sears in depth article on coughs and colds and what to do.  

Oh, and stay tuned, I have another giveaway up my sleeve already...
