What are the natural sources to increase immunity in kids against cold and cough??

The best way to prevent cold and flu infections is through natural remedies that boost the immune system and help your body cleanse toxins. We all know the strong flavor of foods like garlic, ginger, horseradish, onions and cayenne pepper when they’re eaten raw. The chemicals that give these hot and spicy foods their kick are also responsible for their immune boosting power. These foods act as antiviral remedies, enhancing your immune system, making it easier for your body to fight viral infections. These antiviral foods work best when consumed throughout the year to keep your immune system in top form. The garlic, ginger, horseradish, onion and cayenne pepper are concentrated in apple cider vinegar to take the immune-stimulating effects to the next level. Imagine the strongest salad dressing you’ve ever had and you get an idea what this tastes like! To make it, you need to puree the ingredients and soak them in the apple cider vinegar for at least a month before pressing out the liquid, so plan ahead! If you need a cold and flu season tonic right now and don’t want to wait a month for it to be ready, you can always order our Tonic Supreme.

On top of all that have been mentioned, I would recommend probiotics to help boost immune system (though not directly related to cough and flu). Our digestive tract makes up 70% of our immune system. The main strains in our bodies are Lactobacillus acidophilus and Bifidobacterium. They act to prevent malabsorption and gut permeability then in turn increase immune function. Yogurt and cultured milk drinks are good options. Best to choose the low sugar (or no added sugar) options when available.

Fruits and vegetables with high vitamin c content ought to do the trick against warding off colds and coughs eg oranges, leafy greens, apples etc. Lean proteins also help because they help in the creation of white blood cells. White blood cells keep the viruses at bay and in turn keeps your child healthy :)
