Few Food Remedies to Get Rid of Cough

Here’s a list of food to go for when trying to tame a cough:

Honey

Honey is a traditional remedy for coughs, and in one study parents rated honey most favourably for symptomatic relief of their child's nocturnal cough. This is more suitable for older children.

Probiotics

There may be some benefits in taking Lactobacillus to reduce the likelihood of a cold or flu.

Pineapple

Bromelain, a mixture of enzymes naturally found in pineapples, may help suppress coughs and loosen mucus.

Chicken soup

Some studies have suggested that this old-time remedy may actually be able to assist with, colds – one study suggested this could even help with mucus congestion in the nasal passages.

Liquorice Root Tea

As well as being a soothing drink that can help you to relax when you’re feeling blocked up and poorly, liquorice is a traditional treatment for cough and sore throat and is thought to soothe airways and thin mucus.
