    Thanks for sharing Thomas.

    I never give my chidren any cough syrup because it won’t treat the root problem, in fact it does not even work on the symptom. I just make sure that their throats are well taken care of and their lungs are clear. Mucous in the throat region (together with the bacteria) needs to be expelled by way of cough.

    Normally, I find honey mixed with apple cider vinegar and luke warm water works well. How do you normally overcome cough?

    Joyful,
    Unfortunately most of the parents don’t know or don’t care, what they want is “fast cure” and they leave it to the doctors to handle their beloved kids. I have many friends that use to bring their kids to the clinic to inhale some sort of gas that can “clear” mucous fast.

    For me, my kids use to have regular flu & cough a few years back but no such problem for the past 1 year or so, but they have been taking enzyme & yogurt for quite some time already. so if one would like to use probiotics (enzyme or yogurt or kefir) as the supplement to enhance immune system, you need a lot of patience & perseverance bcos you will not see the effect immediately.
    Sometime when my kids started to feel uncomfortable & showing the sign of fever, I will do the “刮痧” before they sleep and walla they will recover the next morning. Interested to learn 刮痧 ?

    Thomas,
    I changed a few pediatricians before I found one who cares enough not to prescribe drugs unnecessarily. But again, we as parents need to assure them that we know how to manage our children’s health before they go light in prescribing medication.

    I for once was a victim of excessive antibiotic because my parents lived in the era of “Doc is God”. I am not being unrespectful to doctors but we do need to be responsible with our own health and our chidren’s health. The good news is, one can reverse the state of his/her health if we start to eat right and of course with patience and perseverance like you had rightly put it. I am a living example of that but it took me 7-8 years to do so. To gain back our health, that is worthwhile.

    刮痧 ? I am always on the learning mode :) please share with us the procedure. Thanks.
