Everyone who has had conjunctivitis (also known as pinkeye) has most likely wondered if there is an effective home remedy for pink eye. After all, it's no fun waiting in line for the doctor and filling prescriptions when you have such an embarrassment on your face! With so many children in daycare or preschool, the general lack of cleanliness in our society, and the unhealthy lifestyle habits we live by, it's no wonder pink eye is spread so easily. This article will explore why pink eye is such a persistent problem, and what we can do to prevent ourselves and our children from catching it.

Conjunctivitis is especially common in children because illnesses spread so quickly in daycares and schools. However, it's not just a problem that children have to endure. Many adults catch it from their children or end up with pink eye in some way or another. It is quite an embarrassing and uncomfortable infection, so many people are interested in learning about avoiding the spread of infection, and even using a home remedy for pink eye.

The best way solution for pink eye is to avoid catching and spreading it. Pink eye is very contagious, so it's sound advice to avoid infected persons, and avoid everyone if you have it yourself. Hand washing is mandatory. Make it a goal to wash your hands hourly if you feel you're at risk, such as is the case when caring for an infected person or when you have a cold. Disinfecting commonly used surfaces and washing your bedding thoroughly will help, but there are other precautions you can take, which I'll describe below.

Many people underestimate the importance of their diet and lifestyle. This careless attitude will lead to problems like pink eye (and worse) whether you like it or not. A healthy body is more resistant to infections and health issues than an unhealthy one. Exercising is a big help because it circulates oxygen, which ensures healthy tissues throughout your whole body. Improving your diet will also nourish your body, making conjunctivitis a rare occurrence.

The following foods are a great addition to any pink eye sufferer's diet: cucumber, tofu, eggs, clams, and water chestnuts. These foods are especially beneficial to eye health. Chamomile however, can work miracles and is an easy home remedy for pink eye. I suggest buying some pure chamomile tea bags and brewing yourself some tea. When the tea bag has cooled place it upon your infected eye and watch your pink eye improve steadily over the next 4-5 days.

As you can see, conjunctivitis can be controlled more easily than commonly thought. With a little effort focused on cleanliness and health, pink eye is becoming less and less common in my household. It used to be a problem for myself and my family, but I now have the knowledge to make it disappear whenever I wish.
