Herbal Formulas
What’s the youngest age at which you can give the herbs to a child?
There are no age limits with herbal formulas; however, for tiny humans and animals, the suggested dosing will differ from an adult dose.
Follow the directions on the label, which will show the suggested dose by weight, and you can adjust as needed. If a baby is breastfeeding, any formulas Mom is consuming will be passed to the baby through breastmilk.
Starting slowly with children or pets is a good way to see how they do with the formulas. Half or quarter doses or taking the formulas once a day and gradually increasing is a good way to get started and see how they do.
Formulas can be added to fresh juice, applesauce or a smoothie if they dislike the taste of the formulas.
