The tonsils are a vital part of the immune system; the outright massive removal of tonsils in the 1960's is one of the dozens of examples of "wrong thinking" ad practice by the medical community. If you know someone right now that is going to get their tonsils out, I would strongly encourage them to get off dairy and sugar - drink more water and get rid of the soda and Kool-Aid. Watch the improvement that takes place!
