Baby Vapor Rub and Moringa Baby Vapor Rub

We’re still not moving on to the “baby issues and sickness” series because we know how much of a scare it is to us, parents, if our little angels get sick. Even seeing them with a slight discomfort painted on their faces is a twang in our hearts already, what more when they feel sick? Yes, it is scary because, again, our babies can’t tell us where they are hurting or what they are feeling entirely. 

Infants, babies and toddlers are very susceptible to getting sick because their immune systems are still developing. They still haven’t had enough time to develop antibodies to fight off common sicknesses like the flu or even just the common cold. In addition to that, their sinuses are also very sensitive to irritants. 

As parents, it has been in our instinct to look for products that can help us make our baby feel at ease and comfortable when they are feeling sick. Hence, we have these things in our bedroom or baby kit like vapor rub and whatnots. 

Is vapor rub safe? 

A study was conducted after a lot of congested toddlers were hospitalized upon using vaporub. The study suggested that the ingredients in the ointment tricks the body into producing excess mucus to protect the airways from what the brain perceives as cold air. The menthol produces that cooling sensation, and it and the other two ingredients could trigger the inflammatory response. 

A traditional vaporub uses the main ingredients of camphor, eucalyptus and menthol to suppress the cough. You apply the product to your chest and breathe it in, it will then alleviate symptoms like coughs and congestions.

However, baby vaporubs are formulated differently. Its main ingredients are aloe vera and coconut oil. So, if you want to use a vaporub, make sure it is formulated for babies. One study actually showed that children who used vaporub showed much better symptom relief compared to those who used petroleum jelly or used nothing at all. 

Uses of Vapor rub

One important thing to take note or remember is that vaporub doesn’t cure your baby's underlying sickness, it will only alleviate the symptoms that your baby is experiencing. Your baby will still need additional check ups and treatments to cure the root or main cause of their symptoms. Vaporub is just a tool to help comfort them until they overcome the illness or irritation.
