Hello, Nan by itself does not cause pneumonia or bronchitis. However I would advice you to change to cows milk since at 2 yrs it is not necessary to be on nan or other formulas.I would also advice to increase your daughter solid intake and to decrease the intake of milk.At this age I would restrict milk to around 250 ml and concentrate on home made solid food.thanks
