If you’re constantly dealing with coughs, phlegm, or a heavy chest, nature has a simple yet powerful remedy that’s kept many people healthy for decades. The secret? A daily mix of lemon and ginger – two ingredients known for their incredible immune-boosting, anti-inflammatory, and lung-cleansing effects.
This natural remedy is especially helpful during cold seasons or for anyone exposed to pollution, dust, or smoking. One cup a day can make a world of difference.
🍋 Why Lemon and Ginger Work
Lemon:
- Rich in vitamin C, it strengthens immunity and thins mucus.
- Helps alkalize the body and fights inflammation.
Ginger:
- A powerful natural expectorant – helps loosen and expel mucus from the lungs.
- Contains compounds like gingerol that reduce throat irritation and open airways.
