When you’re dealing with phlegm in your lungs, dry cough, or sinus congestion, this powerful natural drink can make a huge difference. Made from simple kitchen ingredients — garlic, ginger, lemon, and onion — this homemade remedy helps cleanse your respiratory system and boosts your immune defense.
🌿 Why This Drink Works
Each ingredient contributes unique healing properties:
Garlic: Contains allicin, a natural compound known for its strong antibacterial and antiviral properties. It helps fight infections and clear mucus from the airways.
Ginger: A potent anti-inflammatory root that relieves throat irritation and helps dissolve stubborn phlegm. It also promotes better circulation and boosts the immune system.
Lemon: Rich in vitamin C and antioxidants, lemon detoxifies the body, reduces mucus buildup, and supports faster recovery from colds and flu.
Onion: A natural expectorant that loosens mucus and soothes coughing fits. It also helps open up the sinuses for easier breathing.
