Parents who choose to educate their children at home are often very conscious of what method of medicine to give their children as well. For those that prefer to avoid prescription drugs, alternative and natural medicine has become a popular approach. People are increasingly heading to local health food stores and dispensaries to purchase their choice of remedies and formulas rather than going to the pharmacy.
It is the public’s right, especially that of parents to choose which is best for their children’s well-being. One gentle method of treating children is homeopathy. Not only does it improve the children’s immune system by stimulating the body’s own defence mechanism, homeopathic remedies do not have side effects and are cost effective, just to name a few of many benefits.
