Along with a good map, a well-stocked first-aid kit is essential to enjoying the outdoors. An ideal natural remedy kit should treat burns or sunburns, topical injuries, skin infections-both fungal and bacterial, insect bites and stings, colds and flu, fever, acute internal infections, stomach and digestive issues.

While our first instinct (especially as parents) may be to get medication to mediate symptoms, there are often natural remedies that don’t interfere with the body’s own immune responses and which can help ease uncomfortable symptoms. With the following herbs and essential oils, you should be able to treat just about any common condition you are likely to encounter in your travels. Here is a list top remedies to include in your first aid kit.
