Bladder and Urinary Tract Infections / Kidney Pains

UTIs are something that most parents of little girls have to deal with at one point or another during the first few years after potty training. Wiping incorrectly or not at all is usually the culprit. For adults, many women get them during pregnancy or in times of dehydration.

This regimen has worked well for my daughter, niece and myself many times. The symptoms are urgency to urinate, painful urination and bladder spasms. If these are severe or have been going on for more than 2-3 days, seek medical attention. These suggestions are meant to be used at the onset of symptoms. I'm not a doctor, so please do not go against medical advice. All of these products can be found at www.mynsp.com/EdenEssentials

The products that I use are:
Urinary Maintenance:Brings immediate relief and can usually knock out a UTI in 1-2 days. Since it is pure herbs, a capsule can be broken and poured into a small amount of cranberry juice, Berry Healthy or Herbal Punch for those who have difficulty swalllowing pills. For little ones, a straw usually helps, but my daughter will take it no problem.

Berry Healthy: Antioxidants are very beneficial to the urinary tract. Berry healthy is full of antioxidants and is made without the use of artificial flavors. I like that it is also wonderful for the immune and circulatory systems, so you really get a lot of benefit from this one product.

Echinacea / Golden Seal
: Echinacea is great for immunity, while the golden seal brings immediate relief to urinary tract pains by helping the body rid itself of toxins.

Silver Liquid: Silver is a wonderful addition to this if you would like to try to speed things along. It cleanses the body internally. For an external infection, the gel works best. I usually use 1 tsp. of silver before bed because the kidneys cleanse themselves at night. This allows my daughter to get through the night without an urgency to use the toilet often. Rest is very important!

Silver Gel: I love silver gel because it can be used on any cut or scrape. It can also be used as an alcohol free hand sanitizer if carried in your purse. For an external UTI, simply apply about a pea-sized amount to the affected area and let it absorb completely. Usually 1-2 applications are all that are needed, when combined with other methods.

Kidney / Bladder Massage Oil: Organic, all-natural Bergamot, Sandalwood, Tea Tree, Lavender and Thyme oils are combined with a carrier oil to bring relief to kidney and bladder pains. Massage onto lower back and bladder area as often as necessary. Available by special order at EdenEssentials.etsy.com.
