Hello lybrate-user I understand your dilemma about not wanting to continue with over the counter medication. It is not advisable in the long run. Your daughter has a low immunity and that is the reason she is having frequent cold and cough. And you have rightly identified it. A diet rich in beans, pulses, greens, root vegetables (which must be eaten at specific times of the day) and seeds like flax, sunflower, sesame will really help to combat this. Also, Homoeopathy is an excellent choice for boosting the immune system. She will enjoy the sweet medication and her problem will be solved within 6 months. Do write back to me if you have any more queries.
