Do you or someone you love have the stomach bug? The Woodlands Health Market has you covered!

We all understand that having the stomach bug is not fun or easy to deal with, especially when you as a parent have it. Here is how to handle it at home.

The stomach bug or stomach flu is not actually the flu at all, but can be caused by a number of viruses. The main 2 are norovirus and rotavirus. Since it is viral, antibiotics are not an appropriate treatment for the stomach bug.

This virus will typically last about 1-2 days, so puking may subside after a couple hours, but diarrhea may continue for several days to a week.

Keep these things on hand to be prepared:
- Ginger tea: can help soothe the stomach
- Nux Vomica: can refuse the frequency of throwing up.
- Activated Charcoal: can reduce toxins within the body and help to prevent the stomach bug if others in your home have had it.
- Gut-4-tify: can be used as a preventative measure to build up you immune system in your digestive tract.
- Cell Food: helps to balance your minerals before, during and after the stomach bug attacks. This is a key to hydration, because the body is extremely dehydrated after throwing up, fever and diarrhea.
- Water/Coconut water/Bone Broth: Key to maintain hydration, as much as you don’t want to ingest anything after throwing up, maintaining fluid intake is important.
- Probiotics: taking them before, during and after can insure that your gut has the proper balance of good bacteria. Which can help ward of nasty pathogens like the stomach bug!
- Colloidal Silver: colloidal silver is a natural anti-viral 

Whether you, your spouse, or your little ones get the stomach bug, food poisoning, or a virus, save this information for future use!

Something important to keep in mind is to prepare beforehand, that way you are not surprised when a virus or illness attacks.
