Here are 5 gentle vaccine detox ideas for kids that will help get rid of toxins and heavy metals. Yes, you can easily and gently detox from all the unwanted stuff! Feel better knowing your kids are getting the benefits of vaccines without keeping the toxins inside their bodies.
Vaccine Detox Ideas For Kids
Much has been speculated about the effects of vaccines on ourselves and our children, but an important fact often overlooked is that the toxic ingredients used in vaccines accumulate in the body and will stay there if nothing is done to expel them.
I do vaccinate my children and this post is not intended to be for or against vaccination. It is a very controversial topic. And I believe it is really a personal choice. Do your research and make an informed decision for your family. Whatever you decide is what you think is best for your children anyway.
Childhood vaccination is a very controversial topic.
There is just no simple or clear answer for many people. I’ve read horror stories from both sides and respect people’s opinions. I don’t think we should be judging parents for vaccinating their kids or not doing it. People get very upset about this topic and the only true thing is that we are all doing what we think it is best for our families.
But I am very concerned about vaccines. You hear the stories, the side effects, the bad reactions. And this is why I wanted to come up with a solution to feel a little better about my decision to vaccinate my kids.
Vaccines Contain Toxins And Heavy Metals You Can Actually Detox From
Now, this is great because if you decide to vaccinate, you can detox afterwards from the stuff you do not want but get the benefits of the stuff you did want. Sounds like a good deal to me. The best part is these are all gentle vaccine detox ideas. All natural and safe.
What stuff can kids detox from?
Common unwanted ingredients found in vaccines are: sucrose, fructose, dextrose, potassium phosphate, aluminum potassium sulfate, peptone, bovine extract, formaldehyde,FD&C Yellow #6, aluminum lake dye, fetal bovine serum, sodium bicarbonate, monosodium glutamate, aluminum hydroxide, benzethonium chloride, lactose thimerosal, ammonium sulfate, formaldehyde, glutaraldehyde, bovine extract), calf serum, aluminum phosphate, aluminum hydroxphosphate sulfate, and ethanol.
Does this sound like a list of substances you want in the bodies of you and your family?
If the answer is no, there are a number of measures you can take to detoxify your body from these unwanted ingredients. It makes me feel good to know we are getting rid of all the nasty toxins. These are 5 gentle vaccine detox ideas for kids you can easily incorporate into your routine.
5 Gentle Ways To Detox From Vaccines:
Detox Baths
Epsom Salts
are perfect for kids and adults. Taking a detox bath will help your kids relax, clean their systems of toxins, and absorb wonderful minerals that will strengthen their immune systems. A good detox bath is also one of my favorite ways of kicking a cold fast. Find out more HERE.
Chlorella
Chlorella
is effective in binding heavy metals in the body. It can be taken in capsule form, or ingested in other ways such as being added to smoothies in powder form
(perfect for kids). The effect of chlorella results in toxins being passed out of the body by natural processes of elimination. Many experts say taking chlorella with garlic is a wonderful combination for detoxing faster and more efficiently.
Probiotics
Taking probiotics
to maintain a healthy gut is quite a common practice, but many don’t realise that whilst they are aiding good bacteria in the stomach they are also fighting against toxins and other heavy metals from vaccines that end up in the gut, and thus altering the bacterial balance.
I also recommend this Raw organic probiotic supplement
for kids. Organic yogurt is also a great source of probiotics, along with other sources such as saurkraut, kombucha, kefir, and fermented vegetables.
Omega 3 (Cod Liver Oil)
Whilst aiding healthy joints and bones, Cod Liver Oil is also highly effective against excitoxins, and at the same time repairing damaged cells. Taking Omega 3 is a fantastic way to detox from toxins and heavy metals. I highly recommend Carlson’s cod liver oil
as a supplement for kids.
Cilantro
The herb Cilantro is said to remove heavy metals from the brain by crossing the blood-brain barrier. It is one of the gentlest detoxifiers and it is also highly effective in eliminating mercury and other heavy metals from your body’s organs.
I love adding cilantro to my salads and favorite recipes. You can also create a cilantro bath by adding 6-7 drops of cilantro
essential oil.

Donna Recinos says
My grandsons was just diagnosed with autism their not sure where he is on the spectrum scale he’s almost 2 years old will detox help him.
Creative And Healthy Fun Food says
Hi Donna, I have read about magnesium helping kids with autism. I also know of many studies that show certain foods and chemicals affecting kids with autism. So yes, I think it will help!
Dave says
Look into the research done with broccoli sprouts and autism symptoms as well.
Sarah says
Check out Dr Steven Baker. He recommends glutathione and they have found success with detoxing children with autism.
Tiffany says
Can I ask, what were your grandson’s symptoms that made him get diagnosed? I feel like my son has some minor symptoms and I’m severely worried. But I’m too scared to take him to get tested since there’s no real test. It’s solely based on the dr’s opinion.
Tiffany says
What were your grandson’s symptoms that lead to his diagnosis?

Lori says
Thanks for the tips, I’m always looking for ways to keep my little ones healthy.
Emily says
How long do you do this detox?
Creative & Healthy Family says
15-20 mins in the bathtub and I try to give my kids a bath after vaccinations or when they have a cold.
Chantelle Tibbs says
thanks so much for this:) this is helping to keep my “Getting Ready For Kindergarten” worries at bay
Carol N says
Good blog. Thanks! Saved it.
I read somewhere that giving a enema or series of enemas also helps.
Believe it was a herbal enema.
I know that a catnip tea enema or a garlic enema helps bring a fever down.
Creative & Healthy Family says
Thank you for the tips 🙂
Betty A says
Amy , at bewellclinic.net, has few good detoxing blogs.
One is giving enemas for detoxing.
Found at: https://www.bewellclinic.net/blog-posts/how-to-detox-with-enemas
She also has other detoxing methods listed. Baths, smart sunbathing, oil pulling, grounding, juicing and more.
I have tried a few.
Hugs

Julie King says
Hi there! Thank you for the great tips. I am planning to do a gentle detox with my 10 year old dau. this summer, before school starts back. She had all vaccines, except for a few – and I feel like she really needs some good detoxing! She has had some anxiety, minor skin issues, minor breathing/asthma in certain situations, frequent stomach aches, things that have lead me to believe she needs to detox for sure. I am thinking of starting with detox baths, and giving her extra vitamin C from fruits/veggies to start. What brand of Epsom do you use? And also – what do you think of Chlorella tablets, or a combo of chlorella and spirulina for kids? Purely has a “detox bath” powder, with activated charcoal, etc – do you think this would be as effective as the epsom baths? Lots of questions here – thank you for listening! -Julie
Creative & Healthy Family says
Hi Julie,
I have links in my posts and my detox bath post to the products I recommend and use for my kids. You can click and it will take you to the product. I sometimes give my kids spirulina. I mix it with their smoothies and it is a great supplement! I haven’t tried Chlorella but it is always a good idea to check with your pediatrician. I don’t like epsom salts in powder form, I prefer the salts. The best way I have to give my kids supplements is mixing them with their smoothies. Hope this helps 🙂
Julie King says
Also – is a cilantro bath separate from a detox bath? or do you add that to the epsom bath? -Julie
Creative & Healthy Family says
Hi Julie, I just give my kids epsom salt baths. The cilantro is good for detoxing if you eat it.
Hannah says
hello! I’m reluctant to vaccinate my youngest son because his sister was vaccine injured, but here in california it’s impossible to enroll him in school without being vaccinated, so I plan on vaccinating him soon. I was wondering when should I give him the supplements – before or after the shots?
Creative Healthy Family says
Hi, I give it after the vaccinations. The detox bath is great also for when they are sick or right before flu season. Hope this helps and good luck with your son.
Paula says
My baby is 3 months. How does detox work if I am breastfeeding. For example, if I take cod liver oil and so on, will that release the metals in my body and go into his breast milk OR will the benefit of omega 3 and cilantro etc benefit him as well so that he can detox?
Creative Healthy Family says
I believe so. In any case, it is always a good idea to check with your doctor. Hope this helps 🙂
Monica says
Hi,
I am so glad to read this information.
I have recently vaccinated my 15 months old baby and I fear so much the consequences of the heavy metals contained in the vaccines.
I would like to understand though the dosis of clorella and cilantro I can give her, for how long and how many times I should repeat the detox program.
Is anyone able to advise? I much appreciated your support!
Monica
Creative Healthy Family says
Thank you for your comment. I don’t have an exact amount of dose. I just make sure to include them in their smoothies after vaccines and I also give them a good detox bath the day after. Hope this helps.
Annie says
My 15 yr old daughters had a vaccination about 3months ago, would doing these still help them or is it too past it?
Thanks
Creative Healthy Family says
It sure will help. We can detox from all the bad stuff we have accumulated in our bodies from the past. I’ve heard holistic doctors detox their patients from childhood vaccines. Hope this helps!
Amanda says
Is there a certain time frame you do the detox for? Like do a detox bath 1-2 times a week for 3 months or have cilantro for x amount each week? Etc..?
Creative Healthy Family says
I give my kids a detox bath a day after vaccines. You can also try the rest of the ideas after vaccines for a few days after your kids get vaccinated. Hope this helps.
Brandy says
Thank you for sharing this great information. Is epsiom something I can do with my 2 month old? We had our shots last Monday and I would love to detox him.
Creative Healthy Family says
I don’t think it will be good for a 2 month old but check with your pediatrician and see what she/he thinks. Hope this helps.
Gerri Stratton says
Nutritionist with master’s has us consuming legumes or psyllium husk ($10/pound bag in my health food store). This may sound strange if youve never had the chemistry explained or read/watched a DVD about it.
The bottom line is that this highest-of-all soluble fiber binds with the bile in the upper GI tract, and the fats and fat-soluble toxins … and will not allow all this to recirculate at the membrane which is at the junction of the upper and lower intestines. It takes all that out in the form of your bowel movement. Without soluble fiber (about 1/2 cup any kind of legumes OR a teaspoon of psyllium husk in your water or V8 juice as I do it or in your food), 90-95 percent of all those things just natueally gets recirculated. This un-written-about protocol will take the waste out MUCH faster … and has cleaned up the colon lesions so many people have … and kept them from having portions of gheir colons removed. We do this 3 times daily. (Some diseases 6 times.)
Note, A local ER physician called her to ask what he should do with a patient who was dying in front of him from heavy metals ingestion. She went down and they gave him raw garlic and beans about every 20 minutes … It saved his life. www. karenhurd.com. I just had to share that detox gem.
Creative Healthy Family says
That’s amazing! Thank you for sharing this story.
Stevie says
Has any one heard of the liver? It’s like totally the best for detoxing. The best thing is it’s free. Also there isn’t mercury in vaccines anymore and you get more aluminium from drinking water than a vaccine. Better have an Epson salt bath after each glass of water.
Creative Healthy Family says
Thank you for the tips!
Emily says
Stevie, this is from the CDC’s website: “Thimerosal is a mercury-based preservative that has been used for decades in the United States in multi-dose vials (vials containing more than one dose).”
So, yes, vaccines still contain mercury.
The liver does detoxify the body, but we are loading our liver with an unprecedented amount toxins from any point in human history. It can get overloaded, which is the start of many health problems.
Vivian says
@Stevie, Educate yourself a little bit on the subject of discussion next time you want to interject blatant and incorrect statements.
Angie says
Thank you for this article, how long should you to the baths or give the cilantro, os it ok for a 2 year old?
I live in France and there had been concern that fish oils have mercury and it can be dangerous for kids, it’s this a concern in America too? do you have any suggestions of brands?
thank you
Creative Healthy Family says
Hello, I usually give them the bath once after vaccinations and try to incorporate cilantro in my meals that week. It is totally fine for a 2 year old. Remember to also check with your pediatrician at your regular checkups. Mercury is a concern for certain types of fish. I recommend Carlton fish oil. You can get it online at Amazon or any other health food store. Hope this helps.
MaryAnn Castro says
I have a 13 month grandson that a very bad reaction from his vaccinations. I purchase Carlson Baby Cod Liver Oil, along with salt baths and Chlorella powder.
How much of each should I give him, and how often. The Instruction on the bottle for the oil only give the recommended dose for age 2 and up. Should we just give him half that recommended dose? And how often?
The same is true for the Chlorella powder. How much? How often?
Creative Healthy Family says
Hi, So sorry to hear about the bad reaction. Hope your grandson gets better soon. Regarding dosages you should follow the recommendations on the package and also consult with your pediatrician. I always do both 🙂 Hope this helps.
Kim says
Do you reccommend delaying vaccinations till after 12 months so these products can be given? I honestly don’t want to vaccinate at all.. but my partner wants to.. so we have to compromise on some vaccines. However how would I detox a bub beyond 6weeks of age.. x
Creative Healthy Family says
It is a hard decision that you have to make. I decided to vaccinate my kids and didn’t delay any vaccinations. I know some friends who did delay and some didn’t vaccinate at all. It is a decision every parent has to make. Talk to your pediatrician and see what she/he thinks. Some doctors will delay vaccinations and have a different schedule if the parents want to do it that way. Hope this helps!
Nikkiji says
My son age 4 just had his second mmr and dtap shots. 13 days later he is breaking out in hives. Had swelling in hands and feet could this be vaccine related??? I’m freaking out. Er said not possible but I don’t see what else it could be. Nothing has changed in his routine. Even spoke to his preschool and working together to figure out what could be causing it. We illuminated stuff one by one. Still no answer. It goes away with benadryl. Anyone experience this???
Creative Healthy Family says
So sorry to hear that. I haven’t experienced that so I really don’t know. Hope your son gets better soon!
JL Ward says
If I do the epsom salt bath for my 3 & 4 yo kids, as well as the chlorella and fish oil supplements, do I need to discontinue the other vitamins I give them?? They take a multivitamin with probiotics and an elderberry chew….I just would not want to over-do anything.
Creative Healthy Family says
Hi, It is always a good idea to check with your pediatrician. I would say the multivitamin is enough 🙂
Rebecca siegner says
The reactions you are describing are ON THE INSERT INFORMATION AND ON THE MANUFACTURER’S WEBSITE. Please go look it over and/or demand your dr to read over the insert with you. Chances are that they have NEVER read it themselves.
Please report the reactions. They need to be documented. There are many ways to detox. These odeas are a great start!
Creative Healthy Family says
Thank you!
Patricia Szkotnicki says
Yes there’s a good chance it’s a reaction to something in the vaccine. There’s is a laundry list of reactions and severe reactions for all vaccines especially MMR. Japan actually banned this vaccine from being administered in their country. Research and educate yourself on the effects and reactions, your doctor won’t know because they are not taught anything in regards to vaccine reactions or even the ingredients in school. Don’t take my word for it, look it up yourself. Best of luck with your son, I pray it’s nothing serious.
Patricia Szkotnicki says
No vaccinations are necessary. You shouldn’t be implying they are on an article for detoxifying from vaccine; that’s contradictory.
Madi says
If you doubt the product or fear the aftermath of a vaccine, please don’t do it. These companies have no liability insurance and some levels of metals can be fatal. Don’t be bullied by doctors or schools! They will answer to YHVH.
Creative Healthy Family says
Thank you for sharing your thoughts.
Lacey says
I am a certified health coach with countless hours of continuing education. I would, for starters, immediately stop vaccinating. Vaccines are zero % effective, and 100% toxin mess thats extremely harmful to our children. There are so many exemptions to them and I would advise looking into that, along with finding a good holistic (naturopath) physician and D.C. Detox baths are great for helping previous damage, but would not continue doing do, esp if not sure your child may have MTHFR. They alone cannot detox these vaccines.
Creative Healthy Family says
Thank you for your comment and your opinion.
Addi says
Hi,I don’t understand what the D.C detox means; can you explain to me please?
And I have 7 years old with autism does it help him?
Creative Healthy Family says
What do you mean by D.C? A detox bath is a great way to boost the immune system and also magnesium has calming effects. I am not a doctor and cannot give you medical advice but I have read some studies that link magnesium to positive results with autism. Hope this helps.
Tonya says
Will the detox system still work if it’s not done right after the vaccine is given (sons are 22 months and 3.5 years old)?
Creative Healthy Family says
Yes, it still helps.
Hana says
Hello, I just wanted to say that I love the balanced and gentle approach you have brought forward that is neither Pro or Anti-vax. I use to vaccinate my daughter but one of my nephew’s had a seizure straight after his 1 year vaccine and damaged his right eye muscle, he wasn’t born with a crossed eye but he is now. Doctors in the UK have advised his parents against vaccinating him. I am fearful after what happened to him may happen to my daughter. I am grateful she has responded well to her vaccines in the past but for me to be safe than sorry after this family episode may prevent me from giving her future vaccines, or at least spreading them out, I don’t know yet. Thank you for your tips and advice.
Creative Healthy Family says
Thank you so much for your comment.
Merry says
I agree, Hana! I loved this article! No yelling or lecturing — just useful information. Thank you!
Marie says
Hi.
My son just turned one and is supposed to have his vaccines this Friday the 23rd. Is he too young to do an epsom bath? What type | brand do you use? And for cilantro does it matter how much? I was just gonna give him a few leaves of it smashed up in food. Thank you!
Creative Healthy Family says
Hi Marie, I have been giving my kids detox baths since they were babies so 1 year old is fine. You can see my links in the post for the brand I use and recommend. for cilantro there is really no amount. I also mix it up with food. Remember to always check with your pediatrician as well. Hope this helps.
Archana says
CAn we do a detox for 2 month old baby from vaccines that are consistently given right from birth through their first year…please suggest.My premie baby girl went through a lot of chemicals and vaccines in NiCu .
Creative Healthy Family says
Hi, I would not give a 2 month old baby a detox bath but you can check with your pediatrician and see what she/he says. Thanks.
Rebecca says
My son is 1 year old is it safe to give them chlorella at that age? I saw most products you recommend are for 3 years or older. I was just wondering if i could use them on my 1 year old. I would love to detox him from all these unnecessary things.
Creative Healthy Family says
Hi, chlorella is a natural and safe supplement and I don’t know of any warnings for small kids. It is always a good idea to check with your pediatrician before trying any supplements. Hope this helps!
Amanda says
Hi ! I have a 2 year old & a 4 month old and I do choose to vaccinate them. I am so thankful for the tips on ways to detox my oldest as he loves baths & smoothies so many of your tips will fit perfectly into his routines but as for my 4 month old how to the detox baths work for little ones her age ? Is she too young for a detox bath ? I normally bath with her it’s time for us to relax and get her calm before bed. I’ll quickly shower before hand then soak with her for about 10/15 mins.
Creative Healthy Family says
Hello, thank you so much for your comment. I started giving my kids a detox bath at around that age. Just making sure they wouldn’t drink the water. Ask your pediatrician to make sure it is fine. Hope this helps!
Cathy Cutri says
Hi, thank you for your all your detox information. I wanted to know if it is safe to add the cilantro drops mixed in with the Epsom salt baths? Or should they be two separate baths?
Thank you,
Cathy
Creative Healthy Family says
Hi, I don’t see why not :). Remember to always check with your pediatrician/doctor. Thanks
Kristen says
We are also choosing to vaccinate through a delayed schedule but want to detox along the way. Of the different options you mentioned, at what age is it appropriate to start? I would like to incorporate things right away at 2 months old.
Creative Healthy Family says
I started when my kids were about 6 months old.
Sarah says
I just read al the posts and saw about the recommendation for the cilantro oil. Is that put into water to drink or into the child’s bath? and how many drops? the child is 5.
I chose not to start vaccinate my child till age 2 and a half when he was forced to get them in order to start nursery. I read that the longer you wait to vaccinate, the better is for the child. Their immune system is stronger and formed as opposed as starting the at birth.
Thank you.
Creative Healthy Family says
Hi Sarah, the cilantro oil is for the water into the child’s bath. Or you can make for example guacamole with fresh cilantro and that will be to eat. Hope this helps 🙂
Annna says
Hey I’m just wondering does this work for biological drugs as well I had a terrible reaction to one
Creative Healthy Family says
Remember I am not a doctor so it is always a good idea to check with one. I think it will help! Any toxins or chemicals inside the body because you will detox. Hope this helps 🙂
Martin says
Hello.
My 4 year old son got a 2nd flu shot for school 3 weeks ago. Next day after the shot he started to blink his eyes randomly which he never did before. I really worried sick. What can I do to detox him from the flu vaccine, which product should I try and how to dose it for his age. I so regret to give him that vaccine. Please help
Carol B says
Good article! Passed it on to others.
Given detox baths.
At what age can coffee enema be given?
I read around 11 or so.
I give herbal enemas for fever reduction, recovery from ills such as colds or flu. And when needed constipation. Which is hardly ever.
Blessings
