This last week I was feeling the burn out after 8 weeks with a newborn (and an exhausting pregnancy before that) plus a very active toddler. Lacking in sleep and general self-care my immune system was down and I caught a virus — bah humbug! I tried ALLL the remedies and eventually got tired of hot tea with honey.

One of my go-to remedies during sickness is Golden Milk, featuring coconut milk, turmeric, honey, and cayenne. Inspired by this get well cocktail, and SO OVER hot beverages, I took up the challenge of making the GOLDEN POPSICLE. Let’s call it a Get Well Soon-sicle? Ha ha

Time to mix it all up! Mash with your hands or use a blender!

Bonus– this icy delight is TODDLER APPROVED. Which is AWESOME as a Mama whose kid HATES pedialyte and the pedialyte freezies. Yah, I know.. what kid dislikes sweet drinks and freezies? Now I have the remedy for when I have a sick and fussy toddler who is dehydrated and thinks he’s getting dessert #MomHack.

Being sick during the summertime is miserable. These hydrating electrolyte pumping ice pops are the remedy! They are super rich in antioxidants, anti-inflammatory, and chock full of vitamins (a, b6, c, e, k) and minerals (iron, potassium, zinc, folate, manganese) and even some fibre!

Even better? Honey is a natural cough suppressant and turmeric and cayenne have been studied as natural pain relievers.

The cayenne is optional but is has been said that it helps with absorption of other critical nutrients!
Mangoes are sweet as they are and you may skip the honey but I found it helpful in balancing the turmeric taste PLUS the benefits of honey for a sore throat or cough.

    One other thing is that an online business administration study course is designed for people to be able to without problems proceed to bachelor’s degree education. The Ninety credit diploma meets the other bachelor education requirements then when you earn the associate of arts in BA online, you will have access to the newest technologies in such a field. Several reasons why students want to get their associate degree in business is because they are interested in the field and want to receive the general schooling necessary ahead of jumping to a bachelor diploma program. Thx for the tips you really provide inside your blog.

    I do agree with all the ideas you’ve presented for your post. They’re very convincing and can certainly work. Still, the posts are very brief for newbies. Could you please lengthen them a bit from next time? Thank you for the post.
