Why I use Mother Sparsh Natural Baby Liquid Cleanser to clean baby bottles?

By Dr.Amrita Basu(MBBS,MS) on August 19, 2020 11

How can I clean feeding bottles, nipples, pacifiers, and toys most safely for my baby girl? What is the best cleanser that is organic and is safe for my kid? Are these questions that worry you, mommy?Don’t worry. You are not alone. This is something that nags every mother at the back of their minds.

Recently I started using the Mother Sparsh liquid cleanser. I am glad I have an option for a safe liquid cleanser for my daughter’s water bottles and toys. I wish I had this when she was younger. It would have spared me a lot of heartaches.

Health of the Nation Report — Apollo Pro Health

Kids need their bottles and teethers when they are small and their toys, growing up. Our jobs as parents are to choose safe and keep them clean.

Can you use Mother Sparsh Plant powered Natural Baby Liquid Cleanser for cleaning the toys of your baby?

Yes, you can, and in these times, it’s a blessing. How to clean baby stuff while preventing harmful residues? This was a question that will always trouble me. I used to wash them umpteen times after using regular liquid soaps and worry about soap residues.

Luckily no more worries. When washing baby bottles, kids water bottles, toys, fruits, vegetables, and cleaning everything is on the daily to-do list. It’s a blessing to find a plant-based #cleanser like #mothersparsh. Being #plant based and #pure #cleanserforgerms is a blessing.

What makes Mother Sparsh the Best Baby liquid cleanser ,so special?

It has plant-based ingredients making up a gentle cleanser.
Green Apple has several phytochemicals. The goodness of Basil makes this natural liquid cleanser the best helper a mother wants.

The Mother Sparsh natural cleanser has gentle antibacterial properties. This means it gets rid of harmful bacteria that can grow in leftover milk residues. It removes 50% more milk films in baby feeding bottles safely. It cleans bottles effectively while keeping babies safe.

It is plant-based and is much safer to use than regular dishwasher liquids. They don’t have product labels with detailed ingredient lists. I am an obsessive product label reader. If a product has an unsure ingredient list, that’s not something I want to use for my baby or family.

This liquid cleanser removes odor and is free from artificial fragrance.
It can be used for cleaning toys, bottles, nipples and store-bought fruits and vegetables too. It’s toxin-free and has ALLERGEN FREE fragrance, according to IRFAN. It’s free from Parabens, SLS, and other harmful toxins.

I love cleaning all my baby toys, baby utensils with #natural #plantbased cleansers.

Remember: Before you buy anything out, mommies must read the labels and read the product information on it.

Cleaning safely, baby stuff the right way is essential.

Like teethers are apart of growing up. They have several advantages. But they are painful to clean and make safe for the little one. That’s where Mother Sparsh will help take care of your worries.

But why do you need to worry about cleaning teethers? Teethers are a potential source of germs if not cleaned properly. They are kept here, there, everywhere. Touched by multiple hands, and the baby will still keep putting it in the mouth. That’s a recipe for full-on worry if you are not vigilant.

How to pick teething toys to clean easy?

Try to pick teething toys free of parabens. Teethers will give gently counter pressure to the gums and help soothe teething pains. Use a simple eco-friendly,child-friendly easy to clean teether. Keep it clean using this plant bases cleanser. Have several similar teethers because babies choose their favorites and you don’t need to wash right away if one is dirty.

The piles of toys and never-ending cleaning! I try to be responsible while buying toys and avoid` binges. But I follow some rules while buying toys, which makes my life easier.

Three rules to buy safe toys:

1)Buy toys that are easy to clean are those which can be washed. This is the most essential rule for me. Even though soft toys are cute and loved by all, I didn’t allow them anywhere near my baby. They are dust mite catchers and cause allergies. They are not easy to clean at all.
I love getting Lego blocks, cars, trains, clothes-puppets, clothes-dolls, and playhouses that are dunk and clean. That’s how I manage cleaning toys.

2) I buy safe ones according to age. I buy those which can be cleaned with soap and water.

3)I avoid toys with sharp parts, small parts, and need button batteries, disc batteries, or batteries for that matter. I fear batteries near my baby. They are dangerous.

But even when you pick and choose toys feeding bottles and water bottles, cleaning liquids need to be selected with care too.

When I joined my hospital duties after my maternity leave, the biggest worry I had was how my baby will be? I had a daycare nanny. My mom was taking care of the feeding and baby care. But one problem I had was the baby bottle washing.

We always worried about the leftover baby milk becoming a bacteria hub. We were concerned about unwanted traces of liquid soap. I so wish I had this nature-based liquid Mother Sparsh cleansers back then.

How to use Liquid cleansers to clean and sterilize feeding bottles:

• Do not use the sink directly to wash baby stuff.
• Take a big container. Fill it with fresh tap water. Use a few drops of Mother Sparsh liquid cleansers until it froths, not too soapy.
• Throw away the milk left over in the baby bottle. Wash it with regular water. Then dunk it in the soapy bath.
• Wash taking care to thoroughly clean individual parts. Use the leftover soapy water for cleaning other vessels. That way water is not wasted,
• After this, again rinse with fresh water, then drink water taking care to remove all soapy residue.
• Now check the bottle manufacturer’s instructions for the exact steps to sterilize. We used a glass bottle(by Chicco) that could be boiled or microwaved(six minutes) for sterilizing.
• Store safe
• Keep the bottles in a covered vintner safely on a separate shelf.

Remember :
• No touching the nipple while assembling the bottle.
• Always wash your hands before you dismantle the different parts.
• Always discard milk if not finished within 30 minutes in a hot country like India.

I used eco-friendly feeding bottles and nowadays use stainless steel water bottles for my daughter. Be careful about your product choices for your baby. What goes into your baby’s body is your responsibility. So what it’s made of, is as important as well as how to clean it. I always read cleaning instructions before buying all my baby stuff. Keeping them safe is our top goal.

Leptospirosis and Rats: What you must Know!

By Dr.Amrita Basu(MBBS,MS) on August 6, 2020 27

Leptospirosis: a disease which you should be aware of because it’s one which can spread from animals to humans. One of its hosts being rats. Yes, you heard me right, Rats! And the scary part is they carry all sorts of disease spreading germs, and Leptospirosis is one such disease which we can get from them. Leptospirosis is not a disease that people talk about. But it’s the most common infection that spread from rats to people in the world. It spreads through rodents in weak sanitation areas, farmlands, and even in back to the wilderness adventure sports on land or water.

It spreads from the urinary shedding of rats and mice. Contaminated water in contact with scratched skin or mucous membrane causes infection. Eyes, nose, mouth is all potential sites of entry. The infection spreads through infected water, food, mud, soil, tissue shedding‘. It also spreads through

infected rodent bites
through airborne droplets of body fluids of diseased rats
through the placenta during pregnancy

The contributing organism is a bacteria called Leptospira. The problem is that Leptospira can survive up to 16 days in freshwater and 24 days in soil. That’s shocking.Rats can spread this disease to other animals. Leptospira can infect 160 different kinds of mammals, including cats, dogs, swine, raccoons, cattle, and mongoose. So livestock and domestic animals need to be kept safe from rodents too.

Symptoms of Leptospirosis include

Fever with chills and rigor
Headache, photophobia, pain behind the eyes
Muscle pain and pain in the calf
Redness of conjunctiva
Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea
Severe symptoms involve liver kidney and can be; life-threatening. Jaundice, low urine output is warning signs of involvement of liver and kidney.

Now, are you ready to get rid of this problem?

In our village home, these creatures went up to our second-floor room and scared me. I couldn’t sleep with the lights off. I cried every time I saw them. But complaining was not fruitful. I needed help. My friendly neighbor who was facing a similar rat problem told me about using HIT Rat Glue Pad. Her advice saved me from the grave risk of infections and whatnot.

How to keep your home rat free safely ?

Leptospirosis classically spreads in places prone to flooding from infected rodents. In urban regions, they may cause infection through infected mice infestations.

1.They can hide in small crevices and contaminate surfaces.Always seal up cracks, crevices holes in doorways, and around your homes.

2. Keep food material in metal or glass containers. Always give food preparation surfaces a proper cleanup before starting to cook.

3. Always use a metal dustbin outdoors with a lid if prone to rat infestation. Rodents can chew through plastic.

4. Use HIT Rat Glue Pad in areas round your refrigerator, near your gas cylinder, your pantry door, in areas where rats enter or exit. These easy to use nontoxic sticky pads help you catch rats easily.

How to get rid of Cockroaches

By Dr.Amrita Basu(MBBS,MS) on July 17, 2020 58

I hate cockroaches. In fact, I am not a fan of creepy crawlies at all. Cockroaches really scare me. Once I read a book where it said that cockroaches could survive a nuclear blast. That’s scary. Their exoskeleton makes them exceptionally strong and a health hazard of gigantic proportions.

But the main problem with cockroaches is that they carry germs and allergens which results in “them spreading diseases”. They carry bacteria that are often multidrug-resistant. They can cause various types of stomach ailments.

Featured post

How is the Health of the Nation: The report is an eye-opener!

But now I have discovered worse – they can aggravate asthma and lung infections too!

Cockroaches are responsible for causing 65% of total cases of insect allergens causing indoor air pollution. This is a common problem in urban overcrowding with damp, moist homes. Exposure to indoor allergens due to cockroach infestation causes asthma which makes up for quite a bit of the doctor visits. In times like these with the COVID19 pandemic raging, you need to be healthy and your lungs should be strong. Asthma, COPD, and other lung infections and allergies make your lungs weaker. Act now and kill those asthma-causing cockroaches.

The cockroach droppings are highly allergenic indoor pollutant. Exposure to these allergenics can trigger childhood allergies and asthma in children who have a family history of such diseases.

They are tough to get rid of. They are attracted by the smell of food and to damp surfaces. The pheromones of a cockroach attract other ones, and that’s the super scary part.

Indoor Allergens and Cockroach

They will eat anything and are ecological recyclers. Their menu consists of human food, pet food, cardboard, bookbinding gum, wallpaper paste, hair, fingernail clippings and what not. They can climb on beds and fly too. They are nocturnal and come out when it’s dark.

To give you a little glimpse of what happens in my home is that if I see them before my husband, I scream!

“Mommy kills them by making them lose their hearing.” That’s what my daughter says. So you can imagine how loud I scream when I see a cockroach because I know they spread diseases.

But then I take my slipper to throw at it and try to injure them. I cover my face and nose and carefully spray Lal HIT. I always take care that my child is in a different room. Ensuring proper ventilation after spraying is vital. Apart from Lal HIT, nothing else seems to work, and trying other solutions only end up wasting time & money. That’s several years of experience talking having lived in hostels and six different homes in three cities. So, I know what works and what doesn’t.

In India, with the hot and humid climate, cockroaches can visit anyone’s home. But if you are careful, you can keep your home safe and almost insect-free.

Your lung health is crucial.Asthma,COPD makes it weaker. — Your lung health is crucial

How to keep the cockroaches away

1) Keep food in a tightly closed metal or glass container. This makes them more likely to seal in the smell.

2) Never ever keep dirty dishes piled up anywhere at night! Not on the sink or under the sink. It’s a feast for diseases spreading cockroaches

3) Keep cracks and crevices adequately sealed. If you see cockroaches remember to regularly check for their skin eggs and excretions. Clean the area, don’t just let it be as it is

4) Always clean kitchen counters, floors, sinks, so that food bits and scraps are not lying around. Remember to keep food debris covered. Vacuum under the fridge. Check and clean all dark corners. These include the back of shelves, behind kitchen counters, below sinks, in edges of pipes, cracks, and crevices of doors and in places where daily cleaning is not possible.

5) Always use a dustbin with a good lid, which closes well. Daily trash clearing and washing the dustbin goes a long way in keeping homes clean.

6) Especially at night, wipe down the gas tips and keep gas stoves clean to keep the roaches away. HIT increases your chances of keeping disease-spreading cockroaches out of your home and keeping your family safe and healthy.

10 Powerful ways to have a High Health Score! #RestartRight

By Dr.Amrita Basu(MBBS,MS) on July 6, 2020 23

The Lockdown and Unlock-down has been quite a roller coaster ride!

How did six months of 2020 zoom past cooking, cleaning and staying focused? Well, your guess is as good as mine. But things are changing now, so how do you stay healthy, safe, and manage the unlock-down happening in India?

I am an ENT surgeon, and I plan to share with you ten easy steps to try and live your healthiest life. As we go back to life, or some semblance of it, we realize that nothing is as it was. Now we must wear a mask, maintain social distance, and avoid crowds. None of this is easy, but you and me, we can do it!

Featured post

How is the Health of the Nation: The report is an eye-opener!

But what exactly can you do to ensure your health remains at an optimum level in India during these times?

10 Powerful ways to have a High Health Score

1) Exercise every day – no shortcuts for this

It’s the best way to beat the blues. At least 40 minutes of cardiovascular exercise of moderate intensity is needed for maintaining good heart health. If running is not your thing, then walk. It’s beneficial to invest in a treadmill for your home. Walking is a kind of exercise you can easily do every day.

If you are a healthcare worker, you need an N95 mask. In other cases, disposable surgical masks or reusable cloth masks also work.

3) Quality time for you

Spend quality time with family and enjoy a creative hobby. Reading, writing, art, music, dance help boost endorphins, in turn boosting your immunity.

4) Having a good health insurance plan

Even when you have group insurance through your company or workplace, never skip on a personal family health insurance. When we had to leave our jobs, we would have been without health insurance if we didn’t have a family health plan.

ICICI Lombard’s complete health insurance is one you can check. It gives you a host of benefits, especially hassle-free cashless claim approvals. Apart from that, they have also released a Take Care app – especially to help you manage your health better in times of unlock-down. It keeps you updated about your health insurance, lists of hospitals, doctors available in OPD facilities, and much more – all in one easy-to-use app. This will help you get timely reviews for any pre-existing diseases too.

5) Eat healthy at every meal

Lockdown has taken our meal planning for a toss – now with easy access to our kitchen and fridge, we have forgotten what is healthy balance like. An easy step to remedy this would be to keep a good portion of fruits and vegetables as part of your diet. But if this doesn’t come easy to you, then as part of Take Care App, you get access to diet consultants too – and so meal planning is almost as good as a chat message away.

6) Optimism boosts immunity

While a healthy meal plan is always key to immunity, stress free life is equally important for same. Being positive helps lower the rush of corticosteroids in your bloodstream and combat stressful situations. Further, it helps to do yoga or any other kind of meditation to maintain focus and relax your mind. Additionally, remember that as part of Take Care App – You also have access to stress management consultants – that you can always use to check in if need be.

7) Don’t forget the beauty sleep

With day and night merging into each other, our sleep cycles have gone for a toss. A good eight hours of sleep is a must and helps balance our mind and body.

8) Bring a few plants home

Having nature indoors boosts mental health and improves optimism—both are great for building your health in these testing times.

9) Keep your medical conditions under check

Take your medicines regularly, especially if you are suffering from serious medical conditions like diabetes, hypertension, thyroid disorders, asthma, heart disease, etc. But in times like these where social distancing norms and lockdown measures are still in place, easy access to online pharmacies through the Take Care app comes very handy.

If you are an ICICI Lombard policy member, then this app can offer you delivery of medicines at your doorstep at the click of an app.

10) Avoid addictions

Smoking, chewing gutka or tobacco, drugs, and alcohol are not your friends.

We must focus on healthy habits, doing productive work, and long-term financial goals. This will help return our inner peace. Being healthy is the best option, but excellent health insurance is not far behind! Here’s to a being a step ahead and #RestartRight.

The first half of the year has been a different kind of a ride – with our world slowly opening up and offering a window of normalcy, it is important that you follow these ten steps and Restart Right. Here’s hoping to a safe and healthy start to you and your family!

6 Things you can do to Fight Indoor Allergy #AllergyFree

By Dr.Amrita Basu(MBBS,MS) on July 3, 2020 14

We talk a lot about outdoor air allergens and pollution and rarely about indoor air. But indoor air is the reason behind many diseases.

What are indoor allergies in India?

Indoor allergens cause indoor allergies.

House dust mites, pet dander, insects, molds, and volatile organic compounds are common indoor allergens. They are found in beds, mattresses, pillows, carpets, and furniture stuffing. They have also been found in the office and school environments. [1,2,4]

Featured post

How is the Health of the Nation: The report is an eye-opener!

Allergy Facts you must know:

Dust mites, pets, cockroaches, pollens and fungal molds are a significant cause of acute asthma in adults below fifty.

Allergy to house dust mites makes childhood asthma four to six times more likely.[1]

Simple Tips to Stay #AllergyFree

25% of cases of childhood asthma are related to indoor allergens.[2]Bronchial asthma is related to allergic Rhinitis in many cases.

Molds or fungus (like Aspergillus) can cause allergic fungal rhinosinusitis but may also cause fungal pneumonia. If it’s damp and dark, it’s a problem.

In a study of Delhi homes, 68 different types of molds were found. Aspergillus, Alternaria, Cladosporium, and Penicillium made up 88.6% of the total colonies. The mold problem was most severe in the autumn and winter months. Aspergillus (>40% )were commonest, followed by Cladosporium.[3]

Airway allergies present as allergic rhinitis, sinusitis, pharyngitis, asthma, and hypersensitivity pneumonitis.

Even if you don’t go out, you are still exposed to these allergens . Dust accumulates everywhere, on surfaces, in air vents, over furnishings, nooks and crannies. It’s an invisible layer that causes visible discomfort. There’s simply no escape if you are not aware.

6 Things you can do to manage Allergies and live life well:

1)You can wear a mask and gloves during house cleaning.

2)Avoid forceful dry dusting and use a vacuum cleaner. This prevents the allergens from being airborne.

3) Keep your bed sheets and blankets clean. Wash them in hot soapy water, and air-drying them in the direct sun, gets rid of mites.

4) Cleaning of fans, lights, AC filters, furniture surfaces, carpets, rugs, soft toys should be done regularly.These are dust mites’ favorite places to hide in, and if they are machine washable, you are better off. Closed air circulation can make it a hotbed of germs if not regularly cleaned.

5) Damp is a significant cause of concern. The kitchen and bath surfaces should be kept dry to avoid molds.

6) Pet hair and dander allergy are best fought by avoidance. If you are a pet lover, this needs careful thought. Pet hair shedding can cause severe allergic reactions. Avoid having pets on your bed, sofa, and places where you are in close contact.

If you have a pet, bathe them regularly, so dander and other allergens are removed from their body. If you are particularly allergic, change your clothes and take a bath before bed every time you interact with your pet. But this is not a fool-proof plan [5]

Takeaway:

Allergy is a hypersensitivity reaction and gets worse with repeated exposure. Avoidance of allergens and monitored medication can go a long way to manage allergies on a lifelong basis.

10 Reasons Mother Sparsh has the best baby wash for sensitive skin

By Dr.Amrita Basu(MBBS,MS) on June 29, 2020 12

Mother Sparsh Baby wash is “as gentle as a mother’s touch. Who doesn’t like kissing and cuddling babies? Their skin is soft, smooth, and has the typical baby feel to it. But why is baby skincare so important?

As times pass, the baby’s skin improves in immunity but with less softness smoothness. As a mother, you can keep the softness and smoothness by using baby-friendly natural products. The Outermost layer of skin that is the stratum corneum is 30% thinner in infants than adults. The epidermis and dermis are also not tightly bound. This makes babies lose moisture or absorb toxins and germs through their skin.

How is the Health of the Nation: The report is an eye-opener!

Good baby skincare will preserve skin integrity, avoiding risk factors for infection and injuries. It also keeps baby’s skin soft and smooth. Using the right kind of baby product helps you protect your baby’s skin, with confidence.

Water or Baby Wash?

10 Reasons Mother Sparsh plant-powered baby wash is the best Natural baby wash for sensitive Baby skin

1. It uses certified organic ingredients. Its Plant powered and enriched the goodness of plant oils.

2. It uses a natural preservative and a natural fragrance orange oil.

3. It effectively uses mild surfactant to clean skin without drying it down and harming skin barrier. Sodium Cocoamphoacetate is a coconut-derived cleanser. It’s gentle and produced from coconut fatty acids. It has a mild foaming action, is hypoallergic and cleanses without stripping natural oils.

4. Contains a mix of emollients which improves skin barrier

5. It cleans poop, urine, and food residues without disturbing the skin pH. An effective skin barrier with an optimal pH is essential for useful barrier function. That’s why the baby wash product must be pH balanced. Mother Sparsh has food-grade Citric acid as a pH adjuster.

6. Mother’s Sparsh natural Baby wash’ is PH buffered. This helps preserve the natural skin barrier colony of microbes and immunity

7. It contains no silicone parabens, dyes, phthalate, formaldehyde PEG, SLS/SLES or harsh chemicals

8. The plant extracts used are nontoxic and are tear-free.

9. Mother Sparsh is readily available online.

10. It’s pocket friendly.

Mother Sparsh has the perfect organic baby wash. It’s enriched with Coconut oil, olive oil, avocado oil, calendula oil, grape seed extract, chamomile oil. Orange oil makes its fragrance natural, and aloe vera extract make this Plant powered in the real sense. Its tear-free making the child is happy, and the mother is content.

Proper skincare means the baby has a happy, healthy skin. Whatever we put on a baby’s skin should also avoid any allergic reaction. During the first year of life, the most common skin disease is diaper nappy rash dermatitis, infections, atopic dermatitis (AD). AD occurs due to an interaction between environment and genetics. This is where the baby wash product has a significant role to play.

Harsh chemicals lower the protective skin barrier causing breakdown. Atopic dermatitis is then triggered in susceptible infants. That’s why baby washes need to have a pH of around 5.5. Plain water is often not PH buffered and doesn’t remove poop and sebum the way mild cleansers do.

10 reasons Mother Sparsh is the best Natural Baby Body Wash

What about baby #Bathtime?????

Baby bathtime is a beautiful way for mommy and baby to bond. Enjoy these special moments, with safety—a few things to remember during your daily #tubtime.

A daily #bathing or not? Depends on the external environment and the baby’s condition

Always prepare a #relaxingbath in a warm room. The room temperature feels just uncomfortable for the caregiver. Water temperature at 37 degrees Celsius is perfect for #bath.

Have a shallow #bathtub, and never leave the baby alone in it.

Keep all your bathing products, warm towels within reach.

Take care of your hand nails. They should always be cut, buffed. Avoid wearing any bangles, earrings, necklaces, or ring, during bath time. These can abrade the baby’s skin.

Use plain water while cleaning the face. Be careful and avoid water entry in the ears. Use a ball of thick cotton wool covered in Vaseline to occlude ear canal and prevent water entry.

While cleaning the genital areas, for little girls, clean front to back and never the other way. The poop area needs to be washed separately. For boys, never use force to pull back the foreskin.

After washing with the Mother Sparsh Plant-based baby wash, rinse till the baby is soap-free.

Wrap dry in a warm, soft cotton towel/cloth. After the baby is dried, apply baby lotion keeping baby warm in your lap and wrapped up in a dry cloth. Apply baby lotion within a few minutes of a warm bath for best absorption. Enjoy bath times, and your baby will enjoy it too.

The baby’s skin has several essential functions like:

• Prevention of infection-It is the first line of defense from outside germs

• Reduce the penetration of allergens, toxins, and irritants

• Maintenance of stable skin water content level

It’s not easy to get quality baby skincare products. Mothers want products that keeps the promise of taking care of their babies. The skin is the largest organ of our body, and skin health is a good reflection of your baby’s health. In babies, their skin barrier function is still developing and is weaker than adults. The infant’s skin is different from adult skin. They absorb water and toxins through the skin more quickly than adults. Also, their drug metabolism and toxin removal system are weaker, so they are more prone to toxicity. All substances used in baby skincare needs careful vetting. It’s essential to choose the products we use with care.

But it’s also challenging to separate the grain from the chaff. That’s why I use a natural baby wash that has certified organic products. A Made in India brand like Mother Sparsh, which always has a full ingredient list and uses certified organic ingredients, is the kind that has my vote.

Important Note:

Products that cause hormone disruption include PABA (octyl dimethyl para-aminobenzoic acid) MBC( 4 Methyl benzylidene camphor) octyl methoxycinnamate all show estrogenicity . Essential oils in products are not recommended for use in babies younger than three months. This product contains grape seed oil, calendula oil, orange oil, and chamomile oil.
