SUMMARY:

Healthy children are happy children. When a home is a healthy child, the parents are happier because the child plays and learns things every day, is a hyperkinetic and intelligent child the joy of being home. Having a healthy child should be as common in the vast majority of families that are formed. A large majority of children born are healthy and therefore happy. Continue healthy if their mothers breastfeed their children until age two complementing it with organic food. And from 2 years to 12 years will be strong and healthy children if their diet is adequate. There is a small percentage of sick children, either because they were born so or because they acquired a disease from infection (bronchitis, asthma) or a virus (flu) or a poor diet (allergies). When a child is sick there is sadness in the house, the child is still in bed, not playing with friends, cry for anything, it becomes capricious as some mothers to give presents unnecessary calm, the whole family is taking care child because it is a major concern and the time lost in this disease is one time the child stops learning new things and ultimately not smiling. There is a myriad of diseases that have children; some are common as the flu. There is a saying that has more than 50 years: "The flu in the doctor heals in 7 days without medical assistance is cured in a week." We tell them that the flu if it can be cured with natural methods and economic, with home remedies found in the kitchen, but only if done the first day of treatment, to take a drop of onion (swab) in each nostril of the child, but it burns heal immediately. You can only use this treatment when the flu has just begun and only if condition in the nose filled with mucus. When you pass the second day and there are already coughing from the chest, there is no remedy. You just have to wait for 7 days. Elsewhere in the world in a big city is a bereaved mother, the child has diarrhea and is losing weight rapidly, gave him his pills and nothing happens, then you have to give it a stronger pill (an antibiotic), which will surely will calm diarrhea and step hurts the liver and kidneys in addition to lower the defenses, all by a simple diarrhea. But in poor areas of Peru, in the mountains or in the cones of Lima - Peru, mothers have no money to go buy your pills and give them, curiously, from time immemorial their traditional medicine, which has always been given result and give them their panetela which helps them control their diarrhea without complications of any kind, if diarrhea is severe give foods that strengthen the stools, including rice with carrots (children over 2 years), and plantain or grated apple and black, just that, as food to pass and control the diarrhea. Sick children can also be healthy children with natural healing methods or home, they are effective and economical. This book presents natural treatments for many diseases, which are used by many peoples for thousands of years. We offer this information so that you can use it in its discretion, always under medical surveillance. If they served this recipe we give, we suggest you send us a testimonial.

1.1. BITES IN THE CHILD A dog bites a child can be fatal or just a scare, but we must immediately find out if the dog has rabies. And so with many other animals (cats, humans, and so on). The bite may be due to loss of organic matter (tears), contamination by germs (in severe cases, tetanus, rabies, and so on). As well as injecting toxic substances (poisons) (Txumari Alfaro and Pedro Ramos 2000).

NATURAL TREATMENTS: Big Injury: After washing and cover with gauze and apply the bandage and consult a specialist (Txumari 2000). Cloves: Add a plant antimicrobial such as cloves wrapped with gauze. Garlic: If the wound is small, place gauze over the wound with a few drops of oil of garlic crushed in a mortar. Others: snake bites, do not attempt to drain the fluid opening the wound and sucking. Avoid the poison may be spread by blood to the wound by placing a bag with ice cold water compresses. Remove: Remove with tweezers foreign bodies holding the wound. Thyme: Add a plant antimicrobial and thyme wrapped in gauze. Verbena: Add some plants such as verbena antimicrobial wrapped with gauze.

1.2. BLOWS IN THE HEAD OF CHILDREN It is a direct impact head injury by any object. These head injuries are very common in children and infants due to lack of coordination of their movements. Always falls when the child is to watch the first 48 hours, to see if the shot is important, inside the skull may have bruising, bleeding and other injuries that involve high risks (Txumari 2000). Please follow the child or baby if there is loss of consciousness for several minutes or more, if the child has seizures or shaking, if your eyes have dilated pupils, if you speak in a disjointed, incoherent, etc. and if there is headache that lasts an hour or two, and finally if there is bleeding in the nose, mouth or ear.

NATURAL TREATMENTS: -

-

Garlic: When the child is restored and no headaches begin treatment with garlic for 5 days to clear the clotted blood in the affected part (zone of injury); give crude garlic powder in a capsule of 200 mg and swallow it with water and not feel the bitterness of the garlic. It is appropriate to give this treatment because these strokes after 10 or 20 years and stagnant coagulated blood produce migraine. Llanten: Apply to the affected area warm plantain compress with a towel or flannel not to burn the baby's skin. It is effective for inflammation.

1.3. BREASTFEEDING IN BABIES The maternal milk is the best food for most of the babies and it is recommended that all the moms give of suckling to their babies until the 2 years. It contains all the nutrients that the baby needs to grow and to be developed healthy, of substances that protect it of numerous illnesses. The maternal milk is the but it completes since he/she has antibodies that protect the one he/she drinks and they even facilitate the development of the intelligence, narrow the relationship between mother and son and even today in day it is considered that the nursing is a preventive factor for the cancer of he/she suckles. To breastfeed the baby is also beneficial for the mother's health since, among other things, it allows him to recover with more speed the weight that had before being pregnant. Also, the special bond that is formed between the mother and the baby is translated in emotional benefits for both.

-

During the nursing; the mothers should not consume, neither to give to the children, drinks finished in line, since remove them the dream and they return them nervous and psychoactive. Neither alcoholic drinks. Some recommendations for mothers in the lactation period Reduce the use of laxatives, especially Danton. Nothing of Alcohol and Nicotine, passed easily with her milk and the baby. Antibiotics, if they got the baby could contribute to a possible occurrence of allergies. Coffee, reaching into her breast milk in small amounts. Tranquilizers and sedatives, most reach the blood and can reduce the baby's vital functions. Contraceptives, some decrease the total amount of breast milk. Seal apply silicon, could cause esophageal s movements and hinder baby's food. It is advisable not to take contraceptives during lactation, as the synthetic estrogen pills are passed through milk, resulting in children not assimilate calcium and also the sexual aspect to them degenerates. (Hernรกndez, Manuel; Txumari Alfaro and Pedro Ramos, 2000).

1.5. ENURESIS / INCONTINENCE

INFANTILE

Chirimoya

URINARY

When a child of 5 years (or more) wets the bed, suffering in silence as he knows that the breast (the family) will challenge the next day and not know what to do, it becomes shy. These problems of urinary incontinence, most are of a psychological er and thus must be solved. Bedwetting is involuntary urination during the night in children older than five years or so. Continence at night is the last step in the development of the child with regard to toilet training. About 30% of children still wet the bed at four years and 10% at six. In general, it is usually more associated

Control the time of urine at night: It is important to control when the child's urine at night, because it is usually an average hour, then try to make it up before urinating, so with the help of an alarm clock. This will help a lot, because it will give confidence to the child. Favorite food: Give these foods, will help in their problem of incontinence: soaked nuts, spirulina, bee pollen, brewer's yeast, potatoes, cereals, wholemeal bread, beans, chicken, soy, goat cheese, nut butter, food rich in magnesium.

Before going to bed the child must be rubbed with a gauze soaked with the solution ginger - vodka on the belly, below the navel, for a minute, repeat for 5 days. If allergic reaction does not proceed (Wang 2007). Massage with olive oil: Giving a massage before bed in the lower abdomen with olive oil (Txumari 2000). Motivational Treatment: Implement treatment with awards. When the child does not have urinary incontinence at night to give a prize. Otherwise, punish or challenge, as many mothers do is harmful. Nerve problems: When the medical doctor says your problem is of nervous origin, or the same mother sees that her son is very nervous, we recommend giving the next infusion: Take the infusion of horsetail herb St. John's hair corn Melissa, 3 v / d. Oak: cook the leaves. Drink two cups per day (Arias 1982) Sitz baths: Take them warm for 10 minutes, then a cold bath for 1 minute before bedtime Strengthening the sphincters; Each time the child urinates in place to expel the urine with a steady stream must do so choppy pee pee-stop-stop, and strengthen the sphincter.

1.6. GASES / INFANTILE FLATULENCE The children's intestinal gas caused by eating fast, eating plenty of foods rich in fiber, food intolerance, irritable bowel syndrome have problems, pancreatic and intestinal malabsorption, and generally is a nuisance and not a disease. The intestinal gases are formed in the large intestine for digestion of food by the intestinal flora (bacteria). If these gases are produced excessively or are retained, can cause abdominal pain, sometimes severe, usually acute (cramps) but sometimes persistent and mild (bloating) (Alfaro and Pedro Ramos Txumari 2000). NATURAL TREATMENTS:

1.8. HYPERACTIVE CHILDREN A percentage of children develop an intense motor activity, which move continuously without stopping and without which all this activity has a purpose.

It is advisable to eat organic meat or oily fish once a day since proteins improve the assimilation of iron from vegetables. Vitamin C helps the body to assimilate the mineral that should be included in the daily menu some citrus such as oranges, kiwis, strawberries, etc. White bread, pasta and rice or cereals fortified with iron should never miss. Avoid drinking too much whole foods as they contain phytic acid which is an inhibitor of iron and calcium absorption. Tea and coffee also interfere with iron absorption, so must be shelved coffee after dinner, it is best consumed in the collations.

ALIMENTATION FOR SPORTY CHILDREN All children need to eat a variety of healthy foods and those athletes are no exception. Everybody needs foods that include the following: - Proteins (found in meat, eggs and dairy) - Carbohydrates (cereals like wheat bread) - Vitamins (such as those found in fruits and vegetables, for example) and minerals like calcium (found in dairy products). Children need some fat, but that's not usually a problem. They are found in meats, cheeses, nuts, oils and lard, among many other foods. Prevent dehydration: Because children respond to dehydration with an excessive increase in body temperature, its prevention is essential. Make sure that children arrive safely hydrated workout or competition. During prolonged activities, even when the child is not thirsty, you should drink every 15-20 minutes. Add sugar and a pinch of salt to water: In this way the child is totally calm hydrate without thirst, leading to drink more, only that salt can cause stomach irritation. A more convenient option is to give them to drink sports drinks that contain these elements in precise quantities, in addition to giving a more complete port for hydration. (Melvin H. Williams 2002)

2.6. INFANTILE NUTRITION: BAD CHOLESTEROL Two types of cholesterol exist, one good and another bad. The bad cholesterol is since the one that we worry about, it is harmful for the heart of the children. A great part of the bad cholesterol comes from the diet and especially of the foods of animal origin. When a lot of bad cholesterol is provided to the organism this it floods the blood and it begins slowly to obstruct the arteries generating the risk of suffering a heart heart attack or a chest angina The bad cholesterol in the children, in general, it doesn't generate heart attacks. If the children have a high level of bad cholesterol, they can increase the cardiovascular risk during the mature life. Where it is necessary to measure the levels of bad cholesterol they are in the children with overweight or obesity. These children can change their lifestyle feeding with a low healthy diet in saturated fats and bad cholesterol. When the children get used to eat well of small it is more probable than they make it of bigger. (Txumari, 2000). A good cholesterol coming from the diets also exists, this way the blue fish (trout, tuna, salmon, mackerel, etc.), it provides us an oil omega 3 that it doesn't affect to the heart. The meat provided by animals that have a normal feeding, without injections of hormones for the growth has a fat that generates good cholesterol (German nickel, ostrich, guinea pig, dove pigeon, black hen, etc.). there is Also fatty of vegetable origin that are beneficial (especially the olive oil, corn and other seeds). it is good to give to the boy nuts and almonds 2 times a week. The good cholesterol increases with the physical exercise and it diminishes if one smokes. When the food that gets ready at home for the children is healthy for the heart, it is easier and more comfortable for the adults than they live under the same roof they also follow it. For that reason it is necessary to control the diet, especially the consumption of fritters, quick food and sausages.

2.7. INFANTILE NUTRITION: CALCIUM Children for their great physical activity need large amounts of calcium to ensure their daily activities, which are provided with adequate food and balanced. Within the first two years of a child's life calcium nutrition is the most important, they should receive breast milk, some mothers do so only 6 months and that can cause allergies in children, and complement it with milk powdered or bottled cow's milk with preservatives, which are the most suitable for children. After two years there is a tradition to feed the children with cow's milk, only humans do, because the animals once they wean their offspring, never drink milk but, strangely enough, they are very strong and do not drink milk humans drink cow's milk and are nothing strong, but increasingly weak and sick. Personally I do not recommend drinking milk after two years, can compensate with dark green leafy vegetables (broccoli, spinach, chard), sesame seeds or dates, nuts (almonds, hazelnuts), sardines and anchovies. Another way to get calcium is sunbathing or seawater. The best way to provide calcium for children is to give an ounce of chocolate (high cocoa content), once a week should give the chocolate bars as a special prize, otherwise very quickly creates dependency ( Txumari 2000).

AVOID: Giving children drinks, juices chemicals, canned, white bread, sweet chemical, sausage, bologna, candy, alcoholic beverages, etc.

2.8. INFANTILE NUTRITION: IODINE As iodine, that calcium and iron, is an essential element in small amounts but that the human body can not manufacture. Recent research certifies that iodine is essential in the maturation of cognitive functions like memory, intelligence, attention span, etc. The main sources of iodine are: vegetables, fruits, seafood, fish, seaweed and iodized salt. (Hernández Manuel, 1993) SOURCES OF IODINE: - Garlic: Raw powder, as presented within the capsules, you can bring mixed with food. - Seaweed: Especially with a high content of iodine. - Sea Bathrooms: As the sea water rich in iodine. - Watercress: Prepare salad of watercress, the leaves of easy assimilation, are very rich in iodine. - Onion: It is essential to add to meals. - Seafood: Eat seafood. - Fish: A food that contains iodine. - Radishes: Prepare salads. · Iodine Salt: used in food preparation ensures much of the daily requirement. - Mushrooms: They contain iodine. FOOD THAT HINDERS THE ABSOPTION OF IODINE: Other foods that hinder the absorption of iodine vegetables, cabbage, turnips, mustard, nuts, cassava and cabbage.

2.9. INFANTILE NUTRITION: IRON This micromineral or oligoelement, intervene in the formation of hemoglobin and red globules, and also in the enzymatic activity of the organism. Since it participates in the formation of the hemoglobin, other say that it transports the oxygen in blood and that it is important for the correct operation of the breathing chain and it collaborates with the growth and development of the smallest. The reservations of this mineral are in the liver, the spleen and the bone marrow. This situation can also be given because the foods that the boy consumes don't restore the iron that spends his organism daily. All the small ones need great quantity of iron; their deficiency retards the growth and it generates certain alteration of the mental development. The newly born ones have acquired iron reservations during the pregnancy, with those that cover their necessities until the third month. (Hernรกndez Manuel, 1993) RECOMMENDATIONS: - Beans: Foods that reduce iron absorption in the intestine are the beans. - Oatmeal: Oat Regular use ensures a high iron intake. - Watercress: Eat watercress in salads or with other dishes. - Meat: Eat meat at meals. - Meals: Delete large quantities of tea or coffee with meals. - Spinach: Foods that reduce iron absorption in the intestine is spinach. - Selection: Choose foods (potatoes, broccoli, soybean, tomato, carrot, pumpkin, avocado, beets, cherries, etc.). - Vitamins: Try to vitamin C at each meal, - Vinegar: Do not use excess acetic acid (vinegar). - Blackberry and Raspberry: fruit are rich in iron, is readily absorbed from the intestine and red blood cells.

INFANTILE NUTRITION: PHOSPHORUS

A nutrition based on rich foods in match is fundamental to nurture our brain improving our memory. It also intervenes together with the calcium in the formation and the maintenance of the bones, the development of the teeth, the normal secretion of the maternal milk, the formation of the muscular fabrics and the cellular metabolism. From it is absorbed it by the intestine until reaching different organs of the body. Example; it is united with the calcium to form salts that form the structure and fabrics of the bones, substances that are constantly renewed. It can incorporate to the organism through the consumption of meats, eggs, milky, dry fruits, integral grains and vegetable s. A balanced feeding contributes the match that the body needs, without necessity of appealing to supplements. The natural form of elimination of this of the organism is the urine. The symptoms of absence of this they are; decline, weakness, tremors and disartria, and in some cases anorexy and disorder breathing. The opposite is also harmful, it is not necessary to be exceeded too much in the match supplements because you can hinder the mineralization of the bones and also to generate some renal alteration. (Txumari 2000). Among the main food sources that contain phosphorus these Dairy and dairy, lentils and nuts (sunflower, sesame, pistachio, almonds), legumes (soy, beans, chickpeas and lentils), cereals (wheat, oatmeal, brown rice, yeast, wheat bran) and meat and fish.
