    Eat more pears, eat oranges for sore throats, and eat apricots and bananas for dry coughs.

    Wheezing, sore throat, phlegm, ......Sudden cough symptoms often catch people off guard, but in fact, in addition to taking medicine for the symptoms, fruits also have unexpected effects that can help you relieve cough symptoms.

    When coughing is accompanied by wheezing, or when you have a dry cough without phlegm, you can eat some apricots. Because apricots contain amygdalin, which has the effects of antitussive expectorant, warm the lungs and dissipate cold, etc., the almonds in their nucleus have a stronger cough and asthma effect. In addition, when you have a dry cough, eat some bananas or pineapples, which is also good.

    If the cough is accompanied by a sore throat, it is an inflammatory cough, so you might as well eat some oranges. Tangerines contain volatile oils, limonene, etc., which can promote the increase of respiratory mucosal secretions, relieve bronchospasm, and have the effects of expectorant, cough and asthma. In addition, hesperidin in tangerines contains vitamin P-like substances, which have anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic effects.

    Those who are in the early stage of the disease or have a long cough and phlegm can eat some pears. The "Compendium of Materia Medica" once recorded that pears can "moisten the lungs and cool the heart, clear phlegm and reduce fire......"This is because pears contain glycosomes and tannic acid and other ingredients, and the effect is better when the pears are steamed and eaten after adding Sichuan fritillary and rock sugar. You can also eat some loquat, because loquat contains amygdalin, which can suppress cough and expectoration.

    Loquat paste made from loquat fruit also has the effect of cooling and annealing, dissolving phlegm and relieving cough.

    Although the cause of cough is different for everyone, there are cold, hot, and false differences, such as cold cough, hot cough, dry cough, and prolonged cough. When eating fruits, you should distinguish between cold and heat: people with weak and cold constitution can choose fruits with warm taste, such as lychee, longan, pomegranate, cherry, orange, etc.; People with a hot constitution should eat more cold fruits, such as melon, watermelon, pear, banana, mango, persimmon, grapefruit, etc.

    Because the causes of cough are diverse, and there are differences in severity, it is not possible to completely rely on fruits to treat "cough", but also need to treat the symptoms**.
