Advantages: Contains minerals and vitamins Disadvantages: May not like the taste
amThis seems to have "been around" forever. I remember giving it to my eldest when he was a toddler (about 15 years ago), and the tradition continued from then. It's one of those things my mum swears by, and so the children have to have the stuff every winter- not that any of them ever seemed to need building up! However, I have veered slightly from the tradition, and forgot to buy it before the onset of winter; with the advent of her second (very ... ...ply her with the stuff again.
The tonic is supposed to build up children fast, although whether this means in size or in general good health is not made clear. I assume that it means their general good health and immune system, because with the growing concern regarding child obesity, I don't think it would be a good idea to sell something which would make children balloon out!
It does suggest that it should be used after illness, for loss of appetite ...

Advantages: Relieves congestion in adults and children Disadvantages: Wears off
...our cupboard well stocked with Karvol drops and other decongestant products.

Advantages: Tasty and full of vitamins Disadvantages: Not sure if it's doing anything!
Noah is a very 'random' eater. He will have days when he eats anything and everything but then he will have times when he barely touches a thing. I try to give him vitamins so I know he's not missing anything from his diet. I was using a vitamin that was in medicine form but when I saw these were reduced at Tesco's last week I decided that they were worth a try. I managed to get a box of 30 tablets for £1.80 although they are normally around a pound ... ...it also has vitamins A, C, D and E. The tablet is free from wheat, gluten and yeast and is made from pure natural blackcurrant flavour. The tablets are a black/purple colour and are oval in shape. If you have ever taken normal cod liver oil tablets then they are the same shape as these but the capsules are about half the size. The tablets are made so they are appealing and tasty for children and I did try one for the purposes of this review. They ...
Advantages: Works! Disadvantages: Can take upto 15 minutes to kick in.
Why did I buy Bonjela Teething Gel? At the age of 3 months I noticed Isabella may have started teething. The signs were there like rosey cheeks, grizzling and dribbling alot more. So I went upto my local Sainsbury's and bought this for around £3.00. I brought it home and used it straight away. Did it Work? It did work and stopped Izzy from grizzling but at that age I think they dont really know what they want. However as she approaches ... ...am noticing I'm using it more as she is finding the back teath harder to deal with. The other night she cried all the way through and the only thing that stopped her was the bongela. It sent her off to sleep for a good 6 hours after use. The taste Isabella loves the taste of Bonjela, she has no problem taking it at all. How to use Gently squeeze a pee sized amount onto your clean finger and gently rub ontop the baby's gums. Then put the ...
Advantages: Easy to find, tastes good, does the job Disadvantages: Giving it to the dog
...a tip than a review.
Benylin children's cough medicine is made by Johnson & Johnson and the range of Benylin cough medicines sold around the world includes ingredients such as dextromethorphan, pseudoephedrine, acetaminophen & guaifenisin. But you probably already knew that anyway!
This children's cough medicine is very popular & apparently very good for children but did you know it's also very good for dogs.
Yes, yes, I know what you're thinking, ... ...my way home get some Benylin cough medicine suitable for children as it will ease his raw throat, she said "dogs just love the stuff, its tastes good".
Not convinced I asked her how I could possibly administer the stuff to a dog. "Just as you would a child, with a tea spoon" she said.
So after paying £36.00 to the vet for diagnosing the cough myself (?!) & for a handful of tablets I made a hasty visit to Sainsbury's who have the only chemist in ...
