A. Home-remedies for Immunity boost in infants There are numerous tried and tested home remedies that we can include in our daily life give our and our children’s immunity a boost. 1) Give ginger juice and honey twice a day. 2) Add garlic to everyday cooking. 3) Tulsi leaves improve body’s infection-fighting capabilities. They can be crushed and juice can be given with a teaspoon of honey. 4) Foods rich in vitamin C  are known to boost immunity, so add fruits and vegetables rich in vit. C to your child’s diet. Fruits like oranges, lemons and other citrus fruits are all good sources of vit C. Amla or Indian gooseberry is full of this vitamin and so is tomato. The acid in these food items also improves absorption of Iron. 5) Add curd and fermented foods to your child’s diet. These contain pro-biotics which keeps your gut healthy and also protect you against infections. Also, remember that every time your child catches a cold, the body is also building immunity against those viruses, so they are not all bad.
