Question: Can kids have dairy when they are sick!?
Answers:
You shouldn't give milk or other dairy products to your child when he is sick because it will increase mucus production or make it thicker!.


In general this isn't true, unless your child has a milk allergy!. When your child is sick, you can let him eat his usual diet as tolerated!. If your child does not want to eat then you can try the typical BRAT diet (bananas, rice, applesauce and toast) with lots of fluids and then advance his diet as he will tolerate it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Dairy is usually avoided when there is a fever or stomach virus is involved!. Ice cream and milk products cause a slime coat in the back of the throat!. If they don't make your child cough any more than he or she is, I see no reason he or she can't have them!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

NO! thats the first thing that can make you sick!.

plain mcdonald hamburgers have always worked, pretzels, saltines, white soda!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
