Hi My 9 year old daughter is tired all the time, she is very pale at the moment. She has been sleeping for about 13 hours a night for the last 2 weeks and normally slept about 11 hours. She eats a really good diet and gets lots of exercise/fresh air in normal child ways (ie playing with friends, bike riding) but no excessive sporting regime. She has a slight sore throat but no white spots on it. Any ideas?
She may be anemic and this may have to be ascertained by blood He test. Inspire of good qty of food she needs to get green leafy vegetables, salads and juices and milk in order to maintain balance. The reason could well be MAL Digestion too not allowing nutrients absorb and assimilate. Sore throat, if not treated, could become marked infective upper respiratory tract. Mild affect of weakness can be felt due to this too temporarily. Best way is to motivate her to do saline gargles with warm water and mix a pinch of turmeric to this water. Do thrice a day for a week or so. If you can get holy basil leaves, boil these with little pieces of ginger and tell her to Chat Doctor.  Avoid
