[quote=Anonymous]Hygiene and prevention.

- Do you have cats or dogs at home?   -- Zoonotic diseases can transfer from animals to people. And many kids have allergic reactions to pet hair, feces and dander.

- Have you checked for Mold? Someone who smokes? -- These can be irritants for children and weaken their immune system

-  Do you wash bed-linen every week? Vacuum the beds to remove dust mites? Vacuum the carpets regularly? Change the filter?  Have RO installed for your drinking water?  - Again, all of this is to reduce pathogens from the environment.

- Do your kids shower at night?  Do they dry their hair completely? Do they keep warm while sleeping?  - This is to encourage cleanliness.  Keep the body temperature steady and prevent catching chill.  And helping with immunity.

- Do your kids wash their hands with soap and water? Do you have a no-shoes indoors policy at home? Do you clean or get your home cleaned regularly?  - This will encourage cleanliness and prevent diseases by keeping the pathgen load less.

- Do your kids change their toothbrush every 2 months or after every illness? Do they keep their toothbrush outside the bathroom so that fecal droplets do not land on their tooth brush when toilet is flushed?  - Reduce pathogens.

Personal habits and diet -  
1)  Make sure that they are doing salt water gargles every day. They should also scrape their tongue with a copper tongue cleaner every day after brushing their teeth. Must brush their teeth twice a day.  Do they have throat stones? 
2) Lots of vegetables and fruits, good quality protein etc every day.  Hydrate with at least 5 glasses of water every day. 
3) 1/2 teaspoon of good quality Manuka Honey every day. 
4) Everyone in the family wears face mask at public places like grocery stores and costco. 
5) A shot of 2 ounces of warm milk, a pinch of black pepper, and 1/4 tsp of turmeric every day in the morning. 
6) Yogurt (plain) every day. 
7) 1/2 teaspoon of black-strap molasses every day.
