Asthma, sore throat, excessive phlegm ... Sudden cough symptoms often make people "caught off guard". In fact, in addition to taking medicine for the symptoms, fruit also has unexpected effects, which can help you slow down the symptoms of cough.

When you cough with asthma, or when you have a dry cough without phlegm, you can eat some apricots. Because apricot contains amygdalin, it has the functions of relieving cough and eliminating phlegm, warming lung and dispelling cold, etc., and the almond in its core has stronger cough and asthma relieving effect. In addition, when you have a dry cough, eat bananas or pineapples, and the effect is also good.

If you cough with a sore throat, it is an inflammatory cough. You might as well eat some oranges. Oranges contain volatile oil, limonene, etc., which can promote the increase of respiratory mucosa secretion and relieve bronchospasm, and have the effects of eliminating phlegm, relieving cough and relieving asthma. In addition, hesperidin in oranges contains vitamin P-like substances, which have anti-inflammatory and anti-allergic effects.

Those who are in the early stage of the disease or have a long cough and excessive phlegm can eat some pears. "Compendium of Materia Medica" once recorded that pears can "moisten the lungs, cool the heart, clear phlegm and reduce fire ..." This is because pears contain components such as glycoconjugates and tannic acid. Adding Fritillaria Fritillariae Cirrhosae and rock sugar to steam pears is more effective. You can also eat some loquat, because loquat contains amygdalin, which can relieve cough and eliminate phlegm. The loquat cream made of loquat fruit also has the effects of cooling and annealing, resolving phlegm and relieving cough.

Although everyone has different reasons for coughing, there are differences between cold and heat, such as cold cough, hot cough, dry cough and chronic cough. When eating fruits, we should distinguish between cold and heat: people with deficiency and cold constitution can choose warm fruits, such as litchi, longan, pomegranate, cherry, orange and so on; People with hot constitution should eat more cold fruits, such as cantaloupe, watermelon, pear, banana, mango, persimmon and grapefruit.

Because there are various causes of cough, and there are differences in severity, we can't rely entirely on fruit to cure "a hundred coughs", but also need symptomatic treatment.
