Debbie- I looked at my old Adelle Davis book for infections and she recommends feeding lots of protein, like eggs, milk with brewer's yeast (I used to add carob powder for flavor), yogurt, etc. and increasing Vitamin A while the child is sick and also 100 - 200 iu Vit. E which protects against Vit A toxicity, and 1-2 gms of Vit C a day. Also stress formula Vit B's and particularly Pantothenic acid and B6. There are lots of herbs for coughs like licorice, wild cherry bark, and slippery elm. I like fishermen's friend's cough drops. Echinacea and goldenseal in tincture or capsules are good anti-biotics. A heating pad on the chest can also directly kill bacteria. I am always careful to put a towel between the pad and chest and with a child it wouldn't be safe to sleep with it. Pads can burn if slept on. Nancy -- The Silver List is a moderated forum for discussing Colloidal Silver.
