Make an Herbal Remedy for Bronchitis
Bronchitis is caused by the inflammation of the mucous membranes covering the inside of the bronchial tubes. Usually accompanied by fever and a strong cough, bronchitis is often treated using expensive prescription drugs with unwanted side effects. Natural medicine and healing herbs can be used at home for an effective treatment for bronchitis.
Instructions
1. Take tumeric powder, an affective natural home remedy for bronchitis and its symptoms. Add half 1/2 tsp. of tumeric powder to 1/2 glass of milk and drink two or three times a day on an empty stomach.
2. Wrap 1/2 tsp. ginger powder, 1/2 tsp. of pepper and 1/2 tsp. of clove powder in a small piece of cheesecloth securing it tightly with a knot. Boil 2 cups of water and remove from heat, adding the cheesecloth with herbs and allowing it to steep for five minutes. Drink this natural healing tea three times a day to reduce a fever and calm a cough. Add a spoonful of honey to sweeten if desired.
3. Take 1 tsp. of juice from a raw onion every morning to help expel and prevent the production of mucus and phlegm.
4. Apply a hot poultice made from linseed to the chest and back to help soothe a cough and expel phlegm naturally, helping to treat and relieve the symptoms of bronchitis. Boil one cup of linseed in 4 cups of water until moist and soft. Soak in a towel in the hot water and cover the chest and back, repeating as needed.
5. Prepare a hot vapor bath with eucalyptus oil at night before bed to relax the body and soothe night time cough. Simply draw a bath as hot as you can stand and add 20 drops of eucalyptus oil. Hold the natural healing vapors in the tub by closing the shower curtains. Soak as long as desired.
