When we are sick, our body does its best to fight against germs .
It is for this reason that our nose starts to run to evacuate germs and prevent others from entering.
This increase in mucus is often accompanied by an inflammation of the nasal mucous membranes which become narrower and therefore clog more easily.
As a result, when you catch a cold, you have a permanently blocked nose and a congested throat... And this, day and night!
If you have a cold or sinusitis, chances are your chest is congested with an overflow of phlegm.
And also your nostrils get clogged and it becomes difficult to breathe through your nose.
The solution to regain a normal life day and night is to prepare this 100% natural decongestant and expectorant grandmother's remedy. Watch:
- Cayenne pepper
- honey, lemon juice
- ginger
- apple cider vinegar.
Cayenne pepper, honey and ginger are all natural expectorants.
This means that they help to thin the thick substances secreted by the mucus present in the lungs.
Their elimination is thus facilitated. And the pressure on the lungs decreases. As a result, you feel better quickly.
Cayenne pepper is also a natural decongestant thanks to the capsaicin it contains.
This capsaicin helps relieve the swelling and inflammation responsible for the narrowing of the nasal passages.
Apple cider vinegar helps thin out secreted phlegm, making it easier to limit congestion.
Lemon juice also helps relieve congestion which makes it easier to flush out germs.
- ½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- ½ teaspoon ginger powder
- 3 teaspoons of raw organic honey
- 60 ml lemon juice
- 60 ml apple cider vinegar
1. Pour the lemon juice and cider vinegar into a saucepan.
2. Simmer gently.
3. Add raw organic honey.
4. Pour the pepper and ginger.
Adults can take 1-2 tablespoons of this remedy daily, as long as needed.
Shake well before use, as the ginger and pepper powder does not dissolve evenly.
Personally, I like to heat this mixture a bit before taking it.
You can store it indefinitely in a closed jar, in a cool, dark place.
There you go, thanks to this natural nasal expectorant and decongestant remedy, you've cleared your nose and cleared your throat :-)
This home remedy is perfect as a decongestant, as it reduces phlegm and inflammation in the airways.
It is also very effective as an expectorant, as this remedy helps to expel phlegm by thinning it and making it easier to cough.
What I hate is waking up in the middle of the night with one of my nostrils completely blocked...
But now as soon as I feel that my nose is starting to clog, I take 1 good spoonful of this remedy and hop it clears my nose immediately!
Another thing to remember if you're sick is that the best natural decongestant that works almost instantly is steam.
If you need immediate relief, take a hot shower. Or make yourself a cup of tea to boil some water and breathe in the steam that comes out of it.
This thins the mucus so that it can be evacuated more easily. Don't forget to have your tissues handy!
