Are you irritated and embarrassed because your child wets his bed? Don’t be—it won’t do you and your child any good. Instead, you must concentrate your energies on treating your child’s condition.

Fortunately, there are many natural ways available to treat bed wetting or enuresis. Unlike medications and surgery, these natural methods can be safely done at home and have no side effects.

Fluid Intake

The cardinal rule when it comes to controlling enuresis: never allow your child to drink excessive amount of fluids for at least one hour before bedtime. In addition, your child must cut back on drinking coffee, soda, and other beverages that contain caffeine, which triggers the increased production of urine.

Instead, you can give your child a glass of cranberry juice before he goes to bed. You can also give him one teaspoon of raisins and two teaspoons of walnuts before he hits the sack.

Herbal products can greatly help in reducing the chances of your child wetting the bed. You can try Lemon balm, Zea, Horsetail, or Melissa officinailis. Herbal teas such as oak bark, pulstilla, bearberry, lycopodium, wormwood, ursi, and causticum are effective bed-wetting busters as well.

Regular Exercises

Exercises can also help your child keep his sheets dry at night. For instance, you can massage him lightly on the inner thighs and apply massage oil.

A good way to control enuresis is to make your child rehearse the right way of delaying urination at daytime. When your child feels like urinating, you can ask him to contain his urge for a few minutes.

Then this time span can be gradually extended for up to few hours. As a result, your child learns to control his urination even at nighttime.

Aside from that, muscles around the bladder become stronger and bigger, which increases the organ’s ability to hold more urine at night.

Behavioral Training

It is never advisable to blame or make your child feel bad for wetting the bed. According to experts, enuresis is a process that a child cannot control. But this condition will end before a child reaches puberty.

That being said, parents must be patient and supportive enough so that the child can more easily cope with the situation. Also, it is best to train the child in helping himself after wetting the bed. That way, your child learns to take responsibility for it.

Moisture Alarm System

Another natural and effective way to treat enuresis is through an alarm system that produces a buzzing sound when moisture is detected. The alarm wakes up the child so that he could urinate in the toilet instead of wetting the bed.

A moisture alarm is a battery-operated device that trains your child to get rid of bed wetting. Oftentimes, it takes two to three months after using the device to solve the problem. Initially, the alarm may not bring immediate results.

However, the child will eventually learn to respond to the wetness alarm and control his urination. Finally, that would mean dry nights for your child and hassle-free days for you.

Even when we try to eat well, we're disadvantaged. The nutritional content of most food has been compromised over the years, not only by deficient soils and modern production, transportation, storage and processing methods, but also by the enormous amounts of chemical and artificial substances added to promote growth, storage life, taste and appearance.

It's for this reason that more and more medical authorities are advocating the use of vitamin and mineral supplements. However, finding them in the right combination can be both confusing and costly.

The nutrition products I am going to recommend you make use of knowledge gained from the botanical world's 6,000 year history. They incorporated health building nutritional herbs with the best modern technology to help our bodies cleanse and detoxify so that the cells - the tiniest living units - can be as fully nourished as possible.

This allows the cells to grow, repair and to perform their functions with the best possible efficiency so that we feel and look better and are more able to prevent and fight disease. Once the body begins to clear itself of toxins it can more efficiently absorb nutrition.
