Excellent Herbs for "Back to School"

As parents we are preparing for "Back to School".....supplies, clothings, fees, etc. But we need not forget that we me must also prepare to protect the precious immunity of our babies. Our children will be exposed to many germs as they greet their friends this school year. I have listed some herbs that you can sneak in your child(ren) food that are excellent for boosting your child immune system to fight off germs.

Astragalus Root-execptionally effective for the immune system.
* Make with a soup stock and remove after soup is cooked

Shiitake Mushroom-mobilizes immune system against viruses, bacteria, and parasites
* great in soup or mixed with other vegetables like green beans

Garlic- has many wonderful properties, antibacterial,antiviral, antiseptic, immune stimulant...the list goes on and on!
* excellent culinary herb, add fresh garlic to a variety of meat and pasta dishes.

Of course the above herbs will not only boost the immunity of your chidren but for you also. The health of your family is very important. Always buy herbs that are organically grown or wildcrafted.
