Health coach mom is slammed by critics after revealing the all-natural remedies she uses to treat her teen daughter’s cold – from covering her throat in iodine to putting POTATOES in her socks

A “natural” mother who doesn’t take any pills faced backlash after sharing the homeopathic remedies she used to treat her teenage daughter’s cold.

Kasi Comunale, 40, from Florida, is an integrative nutritional health coach and founder of Alms & Wellness. She has more than 138,000 followers on TikTok, where she promotes natural treatments.

The content creator known as @natuurlijke_minded_mamawent viral after showing how she cared for her daughter Kiley without traditional medicine.

“Well, my oldest daughter ended up getting sick,” she said of the teen who came down with a cold. “I’ll show you exactly what I do to make her feel better.”

Comunale began by filling an oil diffuser with an “immunity mixture” and running it in Kiley’s bedroom.

She then painted iodine on her daughter’s neck and glands in an attempt to soothe her sore throat before giving her a tube of Boiron Oscillococcinum, a homeopathic flu medicine.

‘Boiron for the win. Don’t ask me (how) to pronounce this,” she said of the product.

The mother continued her treatment by massaging a breast rub onto her daughter’s skin ‘to help her breathe’ – but she wasn’t even close to finishing.

“To draw out the toxins, I’m going to put sliced ​​potatoes on the bottoms of her feet and secure them with a sock,” she explained.

‘Then I place a cold pack in a sock and put it on her head to make her feel better. She has a mild fever and that gives her a little more comfort.’

Finally, Comunale rubbed oregano oil into her daughter’s ear for her earache.

‘Kiley, honest feedback. How do you feel after an hour?’ she asked her daughter, who gave her the middle finger in response.

“She’s always been my favorite patient,” the mother joked.

Comunale wrote in the caption that these remedies helped her feel better when she was sick, and she knew they would help her daughter too.

But she also noted that she is “not a doctor” and “this is not medical advice.”

Comunale’s video has been viewed 20.6 million times and has received more than 10,000 comments about her remedies, which are not scientifically proven to work.

Many critics criticized the mother for not only promoting pseudoscience, but also for filming her daughter when she was sick.

‘Imagine you’re feeling bad and then your mother comes in to film a TikTok while she shoves potatoes into your sock.

‘Holy f**gs**t, this is almost worse than the nut jobs with essential oils. Poor kid,” another added.

“JFC I thought this was a parody,” someone else admitted.

However, others talked about how their mothers used to treat them with the same remedies, emphasizing that they worked.

“My mom treats me the same way when I’m sick, and I’ve never been sick for more than 24 hours,” one fan replied. ‘Don’t listen to the negativity. (You are) a good mother.”

“My mother would grate garlic and rub it on the bottoms of my feet,” someone else commented. “I would almost feel normal again in the morning.”

“Holistic moms are the best,” another added. “My mother used to put a humidifier in my room and let me sit outside for a while.”

Comunale later posted a follow-up video in response to people asking her why she wouldn’t just give her daughter “Tylenol” or another “regular drug.”

She explained that she personally doesn’t take “pills of any kind,” including antibiotics.

‘I’m not taking anything with me. My family doesn’t take anything. That is our way of life,” she said. “So I understand if someone sees a video of me, and you don’t live the lifestyle that I do.

“You’re commenting on this because for you that’s what you take and that’s the norm,” she continued. ‘But that is not the norm for me. Just like doing what I do is not the norm for you. So there is room for everyone.

“There’s no right or wrong way, and it is what it is.”
