• They may be born with a weak immune system.
• There might have been a medical history of a certain disease that could have possibly weakened your child’s immune system. This is called acquired immune deficiency.
• Some children have an immune system that is too active.
• In some cases, children might have an immune system that turns against their own body. Conditions called autoimmune disorders occur due to this reason.

Self-help tips to boost child immunity

• Breast feed the baby for at least one year after delivery: Breastfeeding is very essential for building the child’s immunity. Breast milk is full of antibodies, which help prevent infections and allergies.
• Let them play outdoors every day: A survey suggests that the present generation spent only half their time playing outdoors as compared to their parents - blame it on mobile phones, computers, play stations or video games. Help build the child’s immunity by taking them out for a small walk or playing with them in the garden.
• Maintain a healthy diet: A healthy diet is one which contains all the important nutrients. Make sure the child has a balanced diet. Avoid foods with artificial colours and preservatives.
• Ensure the child sleeps enough: Incomplete or disturbed sleep can make the child easily tired and more prone to infections. Newborns need at least 18 hours of sleep, toddlers require 12 hours and pre-school children need 10 hours of sleep.
• Encourage the child to practise personal hygiene: Unclean hands transmit almost 80% of infections in children. Surprised? Therefore, teach the child to wash hands after using the washroom.
