hi Hetal & all there

Can u pl help me how can i give vitamin c to my daughter who is just finished her antibiotics 4 day course for cough n cold and still has little cough inside her.
Vitamin C i know is good for recovery but i fear if it worsens her throat or cold.Or any other juices also like apple also for that matter pl help
another thing is ... is it fine in this state to give her grated fruits like apple ,banana & papaya mixed (Little warmed by microwaving for 15 secs)which i used to give her as first solid in the morning before she fell ill.
Please reply soon as i need to travel away from my place & may not b able to access net from the new place. Thanx a lot Hetal replied. hi anu, vit c, never worsens cough or cold unless it is offered COLD ! which you are not doing netime esp for kids below 5years !
make sure to offer it as fresh as possible and none can replace 100% fresh juice when it comes to citrus like mosambi, oranges/swweet, and other citrus,(100% above 1 year and diluted with water below 1 year)..if your child seems to uncomfortable or is having reflux with citrus,,you can alternatly offer vit c supplements/look for natural or herbal ones and you can also offer, vegies rich in vit c !! offerng fruits like banana and sweet potato in these citrus fruits and vegies will nullify the sourness and kids will not feel reflux(only if they are uncomfortable,or else is not required),,,
and yes, you can offer all the fruits and vegies,,as much as possble..avoid dairy ,,offer only on moderation or imp feeds like milk feeds,,thats all...

offer as much as vit c as possible with all foods she has been taking as of now,,make sure to offer iron foods or banana or such other foods in combinations rather thn givng it sepratly ,,,it will avoid or let me say nullify its actual characteristic of producing mucus,,if at all your baby body is having \" kapha\" body nature/environment...
