Delaying Colds + Shaking Snack: Orange Naturals Kids ND Shakes #ONatural

Delaying the cold.

We are towards the end of September and I hear those early morning coughs rising from behind the bedroom doors. I cringe because like most parents I don’t have time to fight colds all winter long. Especially with a household of six people, they last months or so it feels. I have been nipping the coughs in the butt with Orange Naturals Cough+Cold for kids. Everyone around us has had kids home sick from school already and just the other day 26 kids from our small school of approx 200 were home sick. Since I have 4 kids and no one has been home sick, besides a little cough early mornings from a stuffy room I would say Orange Naturals Cough+Cold for kids paired with Orange Naturals Probiotic Powder for toddlers through teens are doing a fine job keeping those nasty cold bugs at bay. Orange Naturals has become my go-to for anything related to health these days, I am confident you will find something in the Orange Naturals kids health line up that you could use right now!

Solve The School Lunch Rut

We are already heading towards the end of September and I already am struggling with making lunches fun and new for them. Maybe I am over thinking it? Today I kept it simple and made what I took everyday to school as a child PB&J, except it was the modern age way, WOW Butter & Jam. Since I need to do grocery shopping I was hanging around in the cupboard way to long trying to add to their sandwich to make a complete lunch. Have you had those days? Then Miss C said “Mom make a smoothie for us today.” Ah yes, great idea Miss C. I know I have shared this with you already but a few times a week I make smoothies for the kids school lunches. They love when I pack Orange Naturals Kids ND Shakes in their lunches. Since I always have the ingredients in my cupboard it takes me out of the back to school lunch time rut, with a simple reminder. It is simple enough to make for school snacks and I feel great knowing they are getting a powerful boost mid-day. Plus they love telling their friends they have a ‘milkshake’ for snack.

Benefits of Orange Naturals Kids ND Shakes

Here is a quick run down of why I feel great whipping up a quick Orange Naturals Kids ND Shake to send with the kids to school. Orange Naturals Kids ND Shakes are customized multivitamin/mineral for the specific growing needs my children ages 5-12. Each serving is 3 grams of easy-to-digest plant protein (yellow pea and brown rice) which we both know is great to have with each meal. Plus with 0.5 grams of fibre they will keep regular and that is great too! Since each Orange Naturals Kids ND Shakes is chock full of greens and super fruits such as with broccoli, parsley, kale and antioxidant heavyweights like acai, goji and blueberries it is an easy way to get veggies into them without them knowing. Since everyone is different I feel confident that even the most sensitive of my four children will digest it with ease because each ND Shake is dairy-free, soy-free, gluten-free, eggs-free and nuts-free. Because I read labels I am happy to know that they contain nothing artificial.
