You could giver her some childs multivitamins. Not sure how much they will help but they won't do any harm!

Is she just after starting school?? if she is she'll pick up every bug for the first few months and there isn't really anything you can do for her.. extra vitamins probably won't make much difference but if she's a fussy eater they won't do any harm. . when mine start school every year we have a september full of snot and sore throats.. it's great fun :rolleyes:
