POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 6 m old boy7 months agoA. For a 2.5-year-old child with a cough, offer warm, easy-to-digest, and soothing foods to help with recovery. Here are some good options:
1. Warm & Soothing Liquids Warm soups (vegetable, dal, or chicken soup) to relieve throat irritation. Warm water or herbal drinks (like tulsi or ginger-infused water) in small sips. Lukewarm milk with turmeric (if your child tolerates milk). 2. Soft & Nutritious Foods Khichdi (rice + dal) with a little ghee for easy digestion. Oats porridge or ragi porridge for energy. Mashed sweet potato or banana (at room temperature). 3. Immunity-Boosting Foods Honey (only for kids above 1 year) mixed with warm water or added to food. Turmeric, ginger, and garlic in mild form (like in soups or dal). Fruits rich in Vitamin C (orange, papaya, guava) to boost immunity. 4. What to Avoid Cold foods (ice cream, cold drinks, refrigerated items). Sugary or processed foods, as they can worsen mucus buildup. Too much dairy if it increases mucus (observe your child's response).
