Sunday Shocker

My 11 year old has strep throat. It seems to be making it's way around my family and I am knocking on wood, avoiding cracks in the sidewalk and throwing salt over my left shoulder in hopes of steering clear of getting strep!

My husband had it last week and he bought some sore throat drops. He gave them to my son to ease the discomfort. Austin, being the savvy label reader he is came downstairs to show us the cough drops have Hydrogenated palm kernal oil and hydrogenated coconut oil in them!!

I never fathomed this stuff would be in sore throat lozenges of all things! I'd rather chew on eucalyptus leaves than put that stuff in my body!



It is really scary. You really do have to read the ingredients on everything nowadays!!

Knowledge is power!
