To some EXTENT, it will. Children with severe malnutrition are more at risk of disease, and a good diet is an IMPORTANT part of keeping healthy.

However, healthy children in wealthy countries are still at risk from conditions such as meningitis and septicemia (severe blood POISONING). There is also strong evidence that healthy, non-immunized children are more affected than adults during outbreaks of infectious disease because they have wider social networks and COME into close contact with more people. There is no evidence that an organic diet offers any greater protection.
