Health Lice Prevention (NAPSA)—With “Super Lice” becomingresistant to toxic chemicals and pesticides, doctors and nurses are recommendingsafe, natural products that effectively prevent and removelice. This year, the CDC estimates that 6 to 12 million children will be infested withlice. Check and prevent: Check hair weekly under a bright light. Comb through by hair sections—aroundthe ears, back of neck and part lines. Look for tiny bugs or grayish-colored, rice-sized nits, or eggs, that hang on hair shafts near the scalp. Instruct children not to share hats, combsorpillows. Keep long hair in ponytails or braids. Use only tested prevention products. A 2009 independent study by Lice Solutions Resource Network, a nonprofit research organization in Florida, confirmed that “Rosemary Repel products have a highly effective repelling effect in protecting children’s hair from lice.” Nevertheless, should an infesta- tion occur, the all-natural Lice Good-Bye removal system uses yeast enzymesto dissolve nit “glue” so nits wash out easily without harmful, lice-resistant chemicals.
