Home Remedies for Phlegm

Remedies for Phlegm

Phlegm is an accumulation of mucus that you cough up from the lungs. The mucus is secreted within the lungs to keep things moist. It is also used as a ‘conveyor belt’ to trap dirt particles. Cell beneath the mucus layer (ciliated cells) move it along the connecting passageways of the lungs, ultimately into the trachea – your windpipe. Each day you unknowingly

swallow most of this mucus, thus ridding your lungs of the dirt particles. The digestive system doesn’t seem to mind, however.

Home Remedies for Phlegm

Bring a pot of water to the boil and add a spoon of vapor rub to the water. If you don’t like vapor rub, add a handful of mint and eucalyptus leaves to the water. Once the water comes to the boil, remove it from the stove, lean over the pot and inhale the vapor. This loosens the congestion in the sinus cavities and makes it easier to expel the congested phlegm. Using a humidifier during the nights also helps to ease congestion.
