Five Tea For An Annoying Cough

The unfortunate truth is that air pollution is spreading and damaging our health. A cough for no major reason is one of them and is often accompanied by dark colored mucus. Many are already accustomed to such a chronic, irritating cough.

Both cough and mucus are symptoms given by our body that something dangerous has entered our body and therefore mucus is produced and coughing spells occur. The body defends itself and tries to keep dust and other harmful, foreign substances away from causing harm.

A cough is also a symptom of a cold or inflammation caused by a change in temperature, a weakened defense system, or a virus.

Whatever the reason, you can enjoy herbal tea for an irritating cough and mucus removal.

What do you do best to help with a cough?

1. Thyme tea

The singer and other sound professionals love thyme tea. There is a reason for this, as thyme is a very good herb to eliminate infectious diseases of the vocal tract and lungs. 

It is also effective in reducing inflammation,  eliminating pain and helping to heal coughs. Thyme works antibacterially, killing microbes that cause coughing.

2. Lemon tea with honey and cinnamon

As you probably know,  lemon has very effective antibacterial properties. Admittedly, its acidity can be too much if it is in direct contact with the tonsils.

So it’s a good idea to combine a lemon with something soft, like honey. Honey is also a natural antibiotic and  kills bacteria  and acts as a protective “film”.

Cinnamon helps to loosen mucus and makes other substances work better.

3. Mint tea

Mint tea is like a rock star if you are looking for a tea cough. Mint helps to remove mucus and thus relieves breathing difficulties.

Sometimes breathing is really hard because the mucus is too thick. It is difficult for the body to expel mucus because it is attached to the airways.

Mint tea  is great for preventing cough inflammation and cough infection. If you want to enhance the mint tea, add a cinnamon stick to the tea cooking stage.

4. Rooibostee with lemon

Allergies include symptoms other than sneezing, runny nose and rash. Coughing can also be a symptom of an allergy. If you have an allergic cough, try rooibostet with lemon.

Rooibos is an excellent natural antihistamine  that helps with allergic cough.

Rooiboste is also rich in minerals that strengthen the defense system, so rooibostee is great for the symptoms of colds or flu.

5. Ginger tea with honey

All of the previous teas taste good, but not all are gingerbread friends. We recommend giving the ginger a chance because of its awesome properties.

Ginger tea has very effective anti-inflammatory properties. Drinking tea will reduce the pain and heal faster.

Ginger extract has mucolytic properties,  as in the other teas we mention. You help yourself to heal from within, which is important in treating a cough.

You can enjoy these teas for both chronic and transient coughs. Taking these will not cause any side effects unless you are allergic to any substance.

One really nice and easy way to enjoy herbal tea is to make tea in the morning and drink it throughout the day from a thermos mug or jug.
