Boost your child’s immune system
“Immune Boost” is a popular buzzword these days. Parents are eager to find ways to support their child’s immune system and help their families stay healthy! However, much of the popular advice circulating on the internet isn’t accurate or scientific. The good news is that, besides a healthy lifestyle, research shows certain supplements can help strengthen the immune system! We also recommend appropriate vaccines under the guidance of their pediatrician since these prime the immune system’s defenses against certain infections. As wonderful as nourishing our children’s bodies and supporting their immune systems are, these things do not provide targeted protection against dangerous, vaccine-preventable diseases. If you have concerns or questions, please discuss them with your medical provider. Here, we will discuss what you can do at home to help your family stay healthy!
A healthy lifestyle matters! The common wisdom that good nutrition, sleep, daily exercise, and low stress can help you stay healthy is true! Also, remember the importance of handwashing and masking in certain environments, especially during cold and flu season!

The onslaught of colds and other mild illnesses kids get can sometimes make you feel helpless as a parent. These simple steps we discussed may not shield them from every nasty bug going around, but they can help! Remember supporting your child’s overall health with adequate sleep, nutrition and stress management also benefits their immune system. Keep up to date with their medical checkups and recommended vaccines, encourage them to wash hands and consider masks if they’re high risk or in high risk environments. You may also want to consider a supplement to help provide additional immune support!
