Question

How should I handle a child who doesn’t have a runny nose or cough but is just feverish?

Answer

Children often experience runny nose, cough, and decreased appetite, which may be related to zinc deficiency, leading to reduced immunity. It is suggested to supplement zinc through food sources such as oysters, lean meat, fish, walnuts, peanuts, peanut kernels, and pork liver. Additionally, children may suffer from nutrient deficiencies due to picky eating, such as zinc (which can be taken with Xinxi Bao brand Zinc Selenium), Vitamin A, and Vitamin D. These nutrients can help alleviate the symptoms of cold and fever and boost immunity.
