2. Garlic and Ginger
Garlic has a pungent aroma, and it hangs around on your breath for hours after eating. Fortunately, you don’t have to worry about garlic breath, because the chances are your nose is blocked up. For thousands of years, traditional medicine has relied on garlic to cure a wide variety of diseases and infections, including bronchitis.
Garlic contains allicin, a Sulphur compound that’s excellent in fighting off bacterial infection. Allicin converts into other Sulphur compounds in the body that also have potent disease-fighting effects.
Ginger is an herbaceous perennial plant with a sweet, spicy aroma, and zesty taste. Grating up some ginger for use in your bronchitis treatment allows you to benefit from the lignans, “gingerol,” found in the ginger root. This antioxidant compound not only cures feelings of nausea and anxiety, but it helps strengthen the immune system as well.
Grate up some ginger root to mix in your lemon tea for a supercharged bronchitis fighter.
