New Delhi, October 30 (IANS). In the changing weather, protection from cold and cough is very important. From the month of October itself, cold and cough become more common, because the change in weather becomes visible in the winds. In such weather, both children and adults are affected by infection. For cold and cough, consumption of Ayurvedic decoction and warm water helps in keeping the throat clean and provides relief from phlegm.
Cold and cough bother us only when the body’s immunity is low.
To increase the body’s immunity, Vitamin C, Omega fatty acids and Vitamin D should be taken in abundance, but if cold and cough bother you with the changing weather, then you should make a decoction of ginger, black pepper, turmeric and basil leaves and take it twice a day.
To enhance the taste of the decoction, you can also use real honey in it.
Taking steam is a very good way to get rid of the problem of cold and cough. If there is a problem of cold and nasal congestion, then steam should be inhaled through the nose. This method will open the respiratory tubes and if mucus and cough are bothering, the steam should be inhaled through the mouth.
With this, the mucus accumulated in the chest will start coming out and cough will also get relief. This method is effective for both adults and children.
One should drink lukewarm water throughout the day. This will keep the body warm and also protect against infection. Apart from this, putting mustard oil drops in the nose also provides relief from cold.
If cough and cold-related stiffness bothers you, then you can make a decoction of liquorice and drink it. Mulethi has the power to completely eliminate chronic cough.
Apart from this, cook the oil by adding celery and garlic in mustard oil and massage it on the neck and chest before sleeping at night. This method will keep the body warm.
