My DS is ALWAYS sick

[BabyQ]

If you have central heating - have you got a good filter and is it cleaned regularly?
maybe have a look into an ionizer (negative ion generator)? they're supposed to keep dust particles from floating in the air.
one more thing about vitamins - personally since I started taking Usana vitamins (originate in Canada) they're the best thing I've ever taken to keep my immune system up! (and I'm a teacher!) ...a bit on the expensive side though but definitely worth it (coming from a person who never believed in vitamins before).

85% of your immunity is in the gut - I'd get him onto some probiotics, Fast Tract would be ideal. Its organic, super potent and a range of strains of good bacteria, not one or two like others. Its called a probiotic superfood. Inliven would also be okay, but he might not be able to take it if he's not good with taking things!

I've spoken to DH last night about Fast Tract and we'll be getting some of that.

I go home last night and on TVSN (Foxtel shopping channel) they had Vitagest, which is a probiotic superfood and they were saying how it's ideal for kids who are constantly sick. I was stunned.

I'll be buying it through the belly belly website.

We have central heating and haven't had the filters cleaned for since we built the house 3 years ago. I don't even know who to call to organise this.

Thanks again.

My dh had a cough for years that never went away. I drove me and everyone else crazy. We worked out it was a food allergy. It was caused mainly by chocolate. He never eats chocolate now and the cough is gone. Food alleries might be something to look into.

Funny that you mention that. When DS has icecream he comes down with a cough the next day. It drives us mad. We too made a decision the other day when he got his cough this last time that he was not allowed to have icecream again and we would not allow it into the house. I had given him icecream the night before.

Sounds like it may be a case of allergy elimination to get rid of the cough. You may even find his health improves if he isn't having allergy food. Alot of dh's family has dairy allergies. We started ds on soy milk today, as he has been vomiting all the time on cows milk. He has only had 1 soy bottle but didn't vomit, so we are hoping he keeps this up, if not we will try lactose-free milk.
Best of luck with it all.
