Medicines & Supplements Non Toxic Shopping Guide

Medicines & Supplements Non Toxic Shopping Guide

Traditional pharmaceuticals have their place, but they shouldn't be what you first reach for. Have you ever looked at the ingredient list of popular OTC medicines like Advil or Nyquil? They contain so many of the ingredients we avoid in our daily life, so why would we take them when we are sick? Our body is capable of healing with just a little support. This is our running list of more natural remedies when you're feeling ill or need to supplement your diet.

For all of our buying guides, check out our Ultimate Toxin-Free Shopping Guide.

We don’t stock everything listed here, so you’ll find links to Amazon or other stores. As an Amazon associate, we earn from qualifying purchases at no additional cost to you (affiliate disclosure).

Pills, Potions, and Sprays

Immune Support

  • Beekeeper’s Naturals Propolis Throat Spray (contains honey! age restrictions)
  • Toss out that Emergen-C package full of artificial garbage, and opt for these Pure Synergy Zinc and Pure Synergy Vitamin C supplements which get their Vitamin C power from real foods, not synthetic vitamins like ascorbic acid. I switched my husband to this and it worked like a charm. You won’t get that same fizzy feeling (it’s a capsule), but it gets the job done.

First Aid

Tools

When you're feeling under the weather, every small comfort counts. While medications can be necessary, there are also many non-medicinal tools that can help ease symptoms, support recovery, and make you feel better. Include these in your wellness toolkit before your next cold!
