There is nothing more annoying than having an irritating, persistent cough. Not only for yourself, but also for the people around you.
Bananas!
Bananas are good in various ways, but for this article, we’ll only focus on the airways.
A study at Imperial College London found that children who eat bananas daily had 34% less chance of asthma attacks.
Honey and bananas are very efficient in relieving coughing and colds, as they prevent irritation and contain useful vitamins and minerals.
How to use this natural remedy?
Ingredients:
- 2 organic bananas
- 2 tablespoons organic honey
- 400 ml water
How?
Boil the water, peel the bananas, and mash them in a large bowl with a wooden spoon. Pour the water over the mashed bananas and wait for the mixture to cool. Then add honey and stir until you have a thick, yogurt-like mixture.
When to use?
If you’ve prepared a portion and have it in your fridge, you can heat up the mixture before eating. According to Healthy Food House, you should consume this within 4 days after making it. Besides alleviating your cough, it will also increase your serotonin levels and help you fall asleep faster. Smart, isn’t it?
If your cough doesn’t improve after a few weeks, it’s better to contact a doctor. However, if you think it’s a typical cough, then this remedy can work wonders.
