Dear Dr. Kim
This summer, I want to put together a kit of natural products to help deal with “first aid” situations that might arise. Do you have any suggestions for what I should include?

Dear T.K.
This is a great question and a fantastic initiative. When an unexpected first aid challenge arises you want to be able to respond quickly. Year round I have a basket in our cupboard with items I can deploy, as needed. I like to have natural products on hand to combat the flu, colds, insect bites, and other common and random occurrences. When we go away, I select some key items and make a travel pack to hold us in good stead.
Here are some suggestions to help carry you through the summer and beyond:
- – to soothe and heal any skin irritation including that from poison ivy.
I hope this list helps you be prepared for the unexpected.
“Health from the inside out.”
