Your Baby’s Immune System and Vaccines
It is an inevitable part of every baby’s growth to fall sick or ill. Babies may have effective immunity from their mothers at birth but this shield wears off after a few months leading to exposure to viruses, bacteria and germs.
Get them vaccinated
One of the first steps of protecting your child against major diseases is through immunisation or vaccination against common diseases or complications such as measles, mumps etc.
Breastfeed for as long as possible
Breast milk transfers antibodies, proteins, fats and other immunologic substances from mothers to babies to combat against infections and diseases, and even provide long-term benefits into adulthood.
Help maintain their internal terrain
Body fluid can make up to 79% of an infant’s body weight. Restoring your baby’s internal terrain with bioavailable trace elements can help increase immunity against common illnesses, bring down fevers as well as ward off skin irritations/allergies.
Eat brightly coloured fruits and vegetables
As toddlers start on pre-solid food, feed them pureed fruits and vegetables such as papaya, mango, sweet potato, kiwi, oranges and carrots as they are great sources of vitamins, minerals and phytonutrients.
Increase your baby’s sleep time
Ideally, newborn babies should have at least 18 hours of sleep, toddlers 12-13 hours and pre-schoolers 10 hours. Develop a sleepy time routine to ease them into a habitual sleep schedule.
