Guest guest Posted November 3, 2004 Report Share Posted November 3, 2004 Sat Nam! To strengthen the lungs use shatavari and ashwagandha. Avoid all dairy (mucous producing ). Try following an anti-Kapha diet and daily regime. The season is Vata with Kapha accumulating. You might enjoy inhaling steam in which eucalyptus, camphor, peppermint, lavender, or sandalwood has been added. Hot spicy herbs, dry ginger, pippali, and Trikatu are all helpful. Drinking peppermint tea or tulsi tea is another idea. Blessings in health! Guru Ravi Kaur Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is slight, but has lingered for over a week. I found this remedy actually helped with my chronic bronchitis and coughing within a week for me--it also seemed to open up my lungs. Take each day until clears Boil for 10 minutes a pear, orange peel(about a half), 10 almonds, honey to taste and small amount of water. Disgard the orange peeling before eating. You may notice a slight rash on your chest--this is the heat coming from the lungs. Hope this helps. Sara Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted November 4, 2004 Report Share Posted November 4, 2004 Try 1/2 fresh lemon juice, 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper, 2 cloves fresh garlic (or ginger if you don't do garlic) a few tablespoons of honey(or maple syrup or agave nectar) to thicken. Take sips as you need to. Sat Nam! Julia davidweatherly wrote: Can anyone offer some natural remedies to eliminate chest congestion and coughs? It is slight, but has lingered for over a week.
