Let's begin by addressing the kindergarten environment and the frequency of infections. When our children, who have grown up shielded from microbes as much as possible in our modern lives, gather in nursery schools, it becomes inevitable for them to exchange microbes and fall sick frequently.
During the first year, experiencing 12-16 diseases is considered normal. To prevent this situation and decrease the risk of allergies and asthma in subsequent years, we need to expose infants to less hygienic conditions. Additionally, it is important not to send children with fever, runny noses, or coughs to kindergarten until these symptoms subside.
Encouraging mask-wearing, ensuring good ventilation, and reducing the time spent indoors can all help decrease the frequency of infections. Consuming plenty of fruits, vegetables, and fish also supports a healthy immune system.
