Parent Testimonials

We’ve told you a lot about our medicines and their many benefits: They are one of the safest choices for self-treatment, they have no known side effects, they don’t interact with other medication, they have no risk of overdose, they contain active ingredients that are micro-doses of natural ingredients, and more.

But the real question is: What do our customers think about our products?

Below are a few testimonials from parents who have given our homeopathic medicines a try.

‘Absolutely Amazing’

• I stumbled upon your product Oscillococcinum last year when both my husband and son became very ill with the flu. I have to be very careful with over-the-counter medicines for my husband as he takes several other medicines…Another obstacle I face is getting my 5 year old son to take medicine. Generally giving him medicine is an all-out battle, with most of the medicine ending up all over the bed sheets, or down the front of him. But not with Oscillococcinum, he loves the crunchy texture and sweet taste. Your product works like nothing I have ever seen. It is absolutely amazing. I have shared it with numerous friends, co-workers and family members. All of them have had significant relief of their symptoms after taking only one dose. I am such a believer in your product that I carry a box in my purse at all times. Thanks for making such a wonderful product!

• I gave [Oscillococcinum] to my 17 year old son as soon as he complained of feeling achy and chills. He only missed one day of school, and by the fourth day was completely recovered. This stuff is amazing! The last time he had the flu was 2 years ago and I did not know about this product. He missed a lot of school and took about two weeks to recover. I wish I had known about this product then! This should be in [everyone’s] medicine cabinet.

‘Wow!’

• LOVE Boiron. Met them at #typeamom. Son is taking the honey cough syrup today. It works, and tastes good. Wow!

• This stuff is AMAZING. I have a 3 year old who’s had a cold for over a week, and the over the counter medication recommended by his ped was not doing anything. I’m not comfortable with the idea of giving him cold medicine anyway, so I decided to give this a try. I am so glad I did! Within 24 hours he barely had any cold symptoms. His runny nose disappeared, he’s no longer sneezing, he can actually breathe, and his appetite has returned. He does have a bit of a dry cough now which unfortunately this does not treat. Best of all, the pills are small, dissolve easily and he seems to enjoy the taste. I’m going to give him the Chestal Honey Cough Syrup and hope it works as well as the Coldcalm. Highly recommended.

‘A Lifesaver!’

• I love Oscillo. I’ll have to check out the other ones if we get sick again. Hopefully I won’t have to, though. When we all got the flu earlier this season the Oscillo was a lifesaver!

• I LOVE their products! I used the Camilia for teething and it was amazing. I’ve started using the Chestal and it does work just as well or better than OTC products. And the Oscillo is terrific as well. I’ve used it for flu in the past and I gave it to my DD when she got the flu recently. For both of us the flu was totally gone within 3 days using this product! Sure beats the 7-10 days without anything. I recommend their products to everyone I know and will likely give them out as Christmas gifts to my less enlightened family members.

‘Highly Effective’

• [Oscillococcinum is] simple to use; remove cap, pour pellets on tongue and let them dissolve. Begins to take effect within minutes, and lasts for hours. Highly effective in relieving typical flu symptoms, particularly chillsand body aches.

• This stuff [Chestal] actually seems to work. I always use natural products for my kids to avoid the chemicals and food coloring, but am never sure if they really work. My daughter had been coughing A LOT for about 3 days, but 5 minutes after I gave her the Chestal, I didn’t hear a thing. She coughs now and again, but it seems to have cut the coughing down by 80-90%.
