It’s hard to tell the kids just how easy it is to eat too much Halloween candy tomorrow, until their tummies start to feel queezy and unsettled from too much refined sugar and other synthetic ingredients in all the fancy treats.

They have to learn the hard way sometimes. But once they are feeling the headaches and the nausea; what do you do for them at that point?

It is THE best time though…they are most receptive to the natural healthy things when they are feeling their worst!

Hopefully, you will have had the good sense to have sent them out the door to go Trick or Treating with a solid meal under their belts.

After the tenth or fifteenth candy snack…that’s when you pull out your smart arsenal of goodies to soothe the Halloween candy craze. First, there’s the Reed’s Ginger Ale – which is fantastic for settling the tummy that’s gurgling and needs an aid for digestion. Then follow that with a trace mineral supplement that includes vanadium, zinc, and chromium.If you can find a food snack or even a supplement that has a complete B Complex like a whole grain dish, that food will assist in metabolizing the refined sugar and carbohydrates. Protein in any food or in a Smoothie will suffice if they need something quick and easy. If they are tea drinkers, Peppermint Tea with honey and lemon is an effective solution.
