Protecting Your Children during RSV Season: What Every Parent Needs to Know!

Protect Your Child from RSV:
A Natural Approach to Building Immunity

As a parent, watching your child struggle to breathe is one of the most heart-wrenching experiences. The constant worry, especially during RSV season, can be emotionally draining. But you're not alone.

Understanding RSV Risk Factors

Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) poses a significant threat to infants and young children, particularly those born prematurely or who underwent C-sections or inductions. These factors can make them more susceptible to respiratory infections.

The Statistics Don't Lie

RSV is the leading cause of infant hospitalizations in the US, with an estimated 58,000 to 80,000 children under five hospitalized annually. For babies under six months old, the hospitalization rate is alarmingly high at 26 per 1,000 infants.

Beyond Fear: Building Natural Resilience

While these statistics are sobering, they don't have to dictate your child's health. You can take proactive steps to strengthen their natural immunity and protect them from RSV. Here at Perfect by Design, we recognize that it's not just about the exposure to the virus itself, it's about the resilience of your child's immune system! While you cannot prevent exposure, you can take steps to strengthen your child's ability to fight it off.

The Hidden Power of the Nervous System

Your child's nervous system is the master control center of their body, regulating everything from breathing to immune function. A balanced nervous system is crucial for robust health. When it's in harmony, your child's body can:

• Mount strong defenses against viruses like RSV

• Regulate inflammation effectively

• Maintain healthy sleep patterns

• Support proper digestion and nutrient absorption

However, when the nervous system becomes overwhelmed, it can lead to:

• Rapid, shallow breathing

• Compromised immune function

• Increased inflammation

• Disrupted sleep patterns

• Impaired digestion
