banana for kids

You cannot get colds from bananas.

 

My MIL says that banana cause cold if kid eat it after evening time.

 

You have a funny MIL

 

Actually Its true. I am from north and in our side also elders say not to give later evening & winters as its cold.

 

hi
our dr also adviced not to give banana to babies when they r suffering from cold, bcoz it increase the cold.

 

Banana is very good for children What kind ....doesn't matter.
People must be avoiding banana during cold probably thinking it will increase congestion. There is no proof.
Don't give during cold infection if you believe....other wise a small banana or half of the big one can be given.Give during the day if you don't want to give during night.

For preventing cold....give your child orange or lime juice(neembu paani) once a day.

 

Cold = viral infection in nose/throat. Has nothing to do with the temperature or food you are eating. Vitamin c (citrus fruits, other fruits and berries) can prevent to some extent. If the throat is sore banana (and other soft, cool items) can feel god to eat.
