vaccinations

Dear Dr Mom,

I'm going to Nicaragua with my husband in 2 and half weeks and we were just reading up on vaccinations. Nothing is required but typhoid and hep a are reccomended. I don't believe that vaccines are the way to go but I want to be prepared and knowlegable about it. I would like to know if there are herbs and supplements that we can bring along or start taking now to boost our immunity.

More generally, what kinds of things would you recommned for a travel medicine kit?
