Children are vulnerable to infection because their immune system less developed. The urgent need for collective action to enhance children’s survival rates worldwide parallels the critical importance of childhood growth and development. Early childhood development is complex, involving various dimensions such as physical, social, emotional and mental aspects. so many vaccines are available for infectious diseases and antibiotics are successful in fighting the infections but emergence of antibiotic resistance is a great challenge in the present era. Also, frequent use of antibiotics creates lot of side-effects which also adversely affect the growth and development of the child. Childhood is a fragile age and too many vaccine shots and antibiotics may result in dangerous side effects in children. There is a strong need to develop nonspecific immunity in children which help them to fight against recurrent infections. Modern medical science lacks adequate management strategies to prevent such recurrences and enhance the immune system. However, ancient literature, particularly the Kashyap Samhita, provides us with valuable insights into immunomodulatory practices like Swarnaprashan, aimed at preventing children from infections and promoting their physical and mental growth.
