Cough is an unpleasant consequence of viral infections. It can be deteriorated strongly if measures are not taken. But instead of running to the pharmacy and rush to buy ready-made coughs for coughing, you can benefit from the power of nature.
Make home syrup for cough, which our grandmother once used to treat intense viral diseases on the upper respiratory tract. Its ingredients are medicinal honey, lemon and olive oil.
These three components of a domestic cough syrup have a powerful effect due to natural anti-inflammatory and antibiotic properties.
Honey contains a number of bioactive substances that stimulate the healing processes in the lining of the oral cavity, increase immunity, suppress inflammation, and kill bacteria.
Olive oil contains amazingly a lot of valuable fats. Omega-3 unsaturated fats in olive oil strongly affect the resistant framework and stimulate cell division, which helps to cure and cough faster.
The lemon is, in turn, exceptionally wealthy in vitamin C, which is a antioxidant, fights with inflammation, free radicals and strengthens immunity.
Ingredients of cough syrup:
- 200 g of honey
- 60 ml of olive oil
- freshly squeezed juice of 3 lemons
Mix all ingredients in a pot of medium fire. When the mixture starts to lift, remove the steam from heat to cool. Mix all the time. After cooling, place completely in a glass storage bottle. Keep the syrup in the refrigerator and do not worry that it will spoil if you have not opened it because it lasts for at least 3 months.
We know that honey and oil are very durable products.
In case of cough, drink 1-2 tablespoons 3 times a day.
