Its that time of the year.
Winter.
Cold and flu.
It seems like everyone I know right now is not only sick, but so are their kids. Currently, I have a husband and three kids who are sick with a cold. My boys missed school at the end of last week. They received their flu shots, but that doesn’t help when you get hit with a whopper of a cold and cough.
Right now its all I can do not to get sick too. Once the mom goes down — watch out! It’s not long after that chaos hits. I am hanging in there so far, so I couldn’t have been happier when a 2 month supply of Ultra Immune arrived this past week with my name on it to review. We are also going to be doing a giveaway for some as well (more information about that in a bit).
What is Ultra Immune?
Ultra Immune is a mint flavored immune supplement that can be taken twice daily.
About Ultra Immune
 Ultra Immune combines the best in Eastern and Western philosophies, crosses centuries of practical use and focuses exclusively on well-researched and regarded herbal and botanical extracts. They combined 10 key ingredients to make the herbal supplement and it is not only 100% all natural whole food based, but vegan too. Also alcohol, gluten and preservative free.
I love their website. Pick a category and they will tell you why their product is for you. Are you:
Me? I’m totally the Supermom. (Or maybe I should say trying to be…) And like I said, my supply could not have come at a better time. While I haven’t been on Ultra Immune that long yet, I can tell you that as of right now, I am still feeling good — surrounded by sick family and all.
A one month supply of Ultra Immune retails for just $36 and can be purchased directly through their website.
You can also catch up with Ultra Immune on Facebook.

I wish I had a good tip, I always seem to be getting sick
Betty says
I think it is the nature of mother’s to not let themselves get sick. There is a lot to positive thinking as we can’t be taking nighttime cold medicine and just crawling in bed. Babies need to be cared for and you want the kids to not catch what you have so cleanliness, fluids and healthy foods are all part of it. I drink a lot of teas. There are some homeopathic teas that are designed to help allergies, sore throats, getting the coughing under control and clearing the lungs. Tea and honey is great but I’ve found the remedy teas to be very helpful.
Denise S says

Anita Williams says
One important thing I learned after raising 7 kids, and now with only my 2 younger boys at home ages 10 and 14, is to always be prepared. When my boys start complaining about not feeling well, I immediately give them some cough meds and Benadryl and make sure they get plenty of rest. Lots of fluids really help too. At this point I make sure the house is clean from dust and dirt as much as possible as we do have pets. Then I proceed to make home made chicken soup. While things are clean and the boys are resting, I use this time and rest myself. Together with my boys and husband we make it a relaxing day and things are generally back on track in a day or two. Healthy husband and boys is what keep me healthy and happy. I am very thankful for my husband as he is very good at helping me with the upkeep of the home.
