Full Moon Acupuncture's College Essentials Kit

It's almost time for kids to go back to school, and for those starting college, you'll want to make sure they're taken care of, even when they're away from home. One thing you can do is to make sure they can properly take care of their health by sending them off with some health essentials. Here are some of our favorite products, all of which we'd send with our own kids to make sure they stay as healthy as can be!

Wellness Formula: Starting to feel a scratchy throat? Think you are getting sick? Wellness Formula helps to shorten the duration and lessen the intensity of a cold so your student can get back to class. 

Gan Mao Ling: This one can also be taken at the start of a cold, but is a great immune booster as well.  If your roommate is sick, take GML to increase your chances of staying healthy.

Curing Pills: Upset stomach? Late night burrito didn't agree with you? Curing pills support healthy digestion, and can alleviate nausea, bloating and diarrhea.

Calm Magnesium Citrate: Magnesium helps to calm nerves, improve sleep quality and relieve constipation. Bonus: helps athletes recover faster after training.

Evil Bone Water: Herbal spray to ease bruising, swelling, and sore muscles, particularly related to an injury.

Arnica Gel: Great for bruises, aches and pains.

Five Flower Formula: Calming flower essence blend for stress relief. Non-sedating, it can be used both before sitting down for an exam or before bed to settle into sleep.

N-Acetyl-L-Cysteine: This is not an endorsement of underage or heavy drinking, but alcohol is a notable presence on college campuses. NAC can help protect the liver from alcohol-related damage by boosting glutathione levels, lowering oxidative stress, and reducing inflammation. It is not a complete shield against heavy drinking. Use your parental judgment on this one.

Cloud of Protection: Room or hand spray to defend against illness, bad vibes and stinkiness. It won't clean a room for you, but it can make it smell better. Safer, essential oil alternative to Febreeze or Glade scents.. 

Please inquire if you have more questions about these products, or if you are interested in picking up a college kit for your kid!
