When experiencing a cough, cold, or flu, the respiratory system stimulates immune cells to combat the inflammation caused by these symptoms. By reducing inflammation in the airway cells, sore throat and cough symptoms can be alleviated.
Boston Pharma provides solutions to improve the health of you and your family:
1. Get Plenty of Rest:
Resting when you first catch a cold or flu allows your body the time to focus on fighting the illness and recovering.
2. Gargle Frequently:
Gargling can soothe a sore throat and reduce inflammation. You can try dissolving a teaspoon of salt in warm water and gargling four times a day, or mix a teaspoon of lemon juice into two cups of hot water with a spoonful of honey. Let the mixture cool to room temperature before gargling (note: do not use honey for children under 1 year old).
3. Drink Warm Fluids:
Warm fluids help reduce nasal congestion and rehydrate the body. Certain teas, such as chamomile tea, can alleviate discomfort in your nose and throat. You can also add a bit of honey to soothe the airways, as honey has antiviral and antibacterial properties.
4. Use Throat Lozenges:
Lozenges containing extracts of Echinacea, Elderberry, eucalyptus oil, peppermint oil, ginger oil, thyme oil, cinnamon oil, zinc, and vitamin C can help soothe and reduce irritation in the nose and throat.
5. Take a Hot Shower:
A steamy shower can moisturize the nasal passages and help you relax.
6. Apply Warm or Cold Compresses to Congested Sinuses:
Temperature can help you feel more comfortable. You can purchase reusable hot or cold compresses at a pharmacy, or make your own by using a damp towel heated in the microwave for 20 seconds (check the temperature to ensure it is not too hot).
Taking multivitamins is also a method to boost resistance, helping to prevent illness and speed up recovery.
Vitamin C is an optimal antioxidant that enhances the immune system, keeping the body energetic.
