Every day, prepare a fresh salad or fresh cabbage for your child, which will be an effective medicine for a sore throat and the first symptoms of a cold. Also make sea buckthorn jam, tea and drinks from it.

Vitamin C
Rosehip is able to fully satisfy the needs of the child's body not only for vitamin C, but also for ascorbic acid.
