‘Tis the season to be … SICK. As we head into cold and flu season, our DLM Healthy Living Managers have comprised a list of their Top 10 recommended products that you should have in your “Seasonal Medicine Chest” to help you and your family get healthy and stay healthy!

1. Everyone Hand Sanitizer
As the name implies, this hand sanitizer is for EVERYONE—including those with sensitive skin because it’s made with plant extracts and pure essential oils. The small 2 oz makes it convenient to carry in your car, purse, or briefcase when you need to wash your hands on the go. And, since it is 99.9% effective against most common germs, it gets our No. 1 spot on the list!

2. Garden of Life Elderberry Syrup
A strong immune system is crucial to staying healthy. Whether you choose the gummies or the liquid, this highly concentrated immune system support is perfect for the whole family from ages 4 and up! Made with real fruit along with echinacea, zinc, and vitamin C, it’s certified organic, non-GMO, and gluten free.

3. Boiron Oscillococcinum
While it’s hard to spell and even harder to pronounce, it’s not hard to understand that this is the best homeopathic remedy on the market to combat flu-like symptoms. Proven to reduce the duration and severity of flu symptoms including: fever, chills, body aches, headache, and fatigue, these quickly dissolving pellets are great for the entire family ages 2 and up! And, after a mom posted on social media how effective it was in conjunction with Elderberry Syrup, we couldn’t keep it on the shelves!

4. Garden of Life Oil of Oregano Seasonal Drops
Although this liquid herbal supplement is alcohol free, it’s not intended for children. Adults should dilute six drops into a glass of water and taken in between meals for maximum results.

5. Sovereign Silver Bio-Active Silver Hydrosol
Silver, which occurs naturally in mushrooms, has been used for centuries to foster good health. It tastes like water but works like a charm! Boost your immune system with the dropper top formula, the vertical spray, or the Kids’ Formula for children ages 4 and up. Gluten free, non-GMO, and allergen-free.

6. Barlean’s Olive Leaf Complex Throat Spray
As soon as you feel that first tickle or hint of a scratchy throat, spray this peppermint-flavored super-antioxidant solution to the back of your throat (or your child’s) and repeat every half hour as necessary.

7. ManukaGuard Manuka Honey Throat&Chest Syrup
This medical-grade, alcohol-free syrup is “tough on seasonal bugs but gentle on families.” Great for everyone in the family ages 2 and up with its combination of organic apple cider vinegar, New Zealand Manuka Honey, along with olive leaf, ginger root, and licorice root extracts.

8. Quantum Health’s Thera Zinc Lozenges
Unlike traditional cough drops, these throat lozenges support your immune system as well as quell your cough. Whether you choose the Organic Elderberry flavor or the Blood Orange flavor, its special blend of organic marshmallow root, organic slippery elm, and echinacea pack a powerful punch when your body needs it most! And if you suffer from a sore throat and persistent cough, try their Meyer Lemon & Organic Honey Cough Relief Lozenges.

9. Xlear Natural Saline Sinus Spray
There’s a reason why healthcare professionals worldwide recommend XLEAR nasal sprays to their patients: it works! The winning combination of capsicum (fast-acting relief of sinus congestion), aloe (to sooth irritated nasal passages), and xylitol (to reduce swelling without steroids) is highly effective! But don’t take our word for it, XLEAR offers a money-back guarantee if you’re not satisfied with the results.

10. Traditional Medicinals Teas
Because all of their organic teas are caffeine free, a nice hot cup of Traditional Medicinals Tea is a wonderful way to end the day. Specially created by herbalists to be deliciously effective, choose the tea best suited to your specific needs. We highly recommend Breathe Easy, Gypsy Cold Care, Echinacea, and Throat Coat (with or without lemon).
