Cough recipe
We need:
50 g ground cumin (you can also use whole cumin if you don’t have ground cumin)
250 ml water
For adults, 1 tablespoon plum juice
Making:
Cumin is mixed with 200 ml of water, put on the fire and cook on a slightly open lid for 15 minutes. Now you should have a thick, dark mixture in the pot.
Strain the liquid and add another 50 ml of water.
Put back on the fire and bring to a boil.
I don’t know how it is with very young children, but our grandmother gave us this “vitamin” only from about 10 years old.
Adults add 1 tablespoon of plum juice to the resulting mixture.
Children take one teaspoon of the mixture twice a day, and adults three times a day, one teaspoon.
It is enough to take it for a short time, we have always relieved ourselves after a few doses and only ginger and herbal teas have been enough.
The anti-inflammatory effects of cumin are responsible for the rapid onset of action.
However, when taking this treatment, be sure to drink enough fluids, cumin has a diuretic effect.
In moderation
There is no need to overdo it, and unless your health condition requires it, the optimal intake of cumin should not exceed more than half a tablespoon in one dish, a maximum of three times a week.
If, on the other hand, you suffer from difficulties, it is advisable to drink cumin tea up to twice a day.Follow our Facebook group for mutual aid – WE HELP everyone with proven folk recipes here –
