Get Rid of Phlegm and Mucus From Your Body With 5 Highly Effective Home Treatments (Video)

-
When mucus builds up, it can make you feel as if there’s something stuck in your throat. You feel an urge to clear your throat constantly, and it’s really frustrating. This issue is usually caused by infections in the upper respiratory tract, but mucus buildups may be triggered by allergies, asthma, and heartburn.
Coughing doesn’t work all the tie, and there are some natural methods you should try. These include mullein tea, steam inhalation, raw honey, and natural salt rinse.

The role of mucus

Mucus lines the respiratory and digestive tract in order to protect the system. Mucus prevents infections and keeps bacteria and viruses away from the body. In other words, having mucus in your throat is a normal thing. The real problem occurs when mucous becomes thick and has an unusual color, such as dark yellow, green and brown.
The production of mucus may be affected by heartburn or acid reflux. Stomach acids go through the weak lower esophageal sphincter, giving you a burning sensation. The throat becomes irritated, and you feel the “lump” in your throat.
This triggers the production of mucus, giving you cold-like symptoms, such as cough, post-nasal drip, sinus issues, and sore throat. This problem goes undiagnosed mostly because it has the same symptoms as common colds and allergies.
The production of mucus may be increased by allergens. Pollen, dust, mites, animal dander and mold irritate your throat, and your body produces more mucus. Asthma is manifested through coughing and wheezing, but sufferers may also deal with excessive production of mucus.
In cases of bacterial and viral infections, the body produces excess mucus in order to trap microorganisms. Sinusitis is a condition in which sinuses become inflamed and swollen. This infection also causes post-nasal drip and thick, dark mucus.
You can use a few simple and natural remedies to clear your throat.

7 natural remedies to eliminate excess throat mucus

1. Saltwater
Gargle salt water to eliminate throat mucus. Add half a teaspoon or a teaspoon of natural salt in a glass of warm water. Add a pinch of baking soda for optimal results. Gargle the solution several times a day.
2. Steam inhalation
Add therapeutic grade essential oils for better results. Use Eucalyptus Radiata, Ravintsara and Mild Thyme are some nice options. These also eliminate allergens from the air, prevent flu, common colds, sinusitis, and respiratory infections.
Add a few drops of the oils to your hot steamy shower or your essential oil diffuser.
3. Ginger
Ginger has a strong anti-inflammatory effect. A study released in the Journal of Ethnopharmacology found that hot ginger tea relieves respiratory infections. Steep a piece of ginger (1 inch) in a cup of boiling water. Steep for a few minutes, and drink your ginger tea 2-3 times a day. Add lemon juice, honey and cayenne to strengthen its effect.

4. Spice
Hot peppers, wasabi, and horseradish relieve congestion, reduce inflammation and prevent mucus buildups. Capsaicin and allyl isothiocyanate acts as a decongestant and relieves the symptoms of nasal discharge and inflammation.
5. Honey
Natural pollen, royal jelly, and propolis give honey its incredible power. Honey reduces coughing. Canadian researchers found that a single dose of honey reduces the production of mucus and coughing. Take a tablespoon of honey 2-3 times a day until your condition improves.
Hydrate your body
Drink a lot of water and herbal teas to reduce the production of mucus. Mullein leaf tea works best, and you can also use chamomile, ginger, and turmeric to soothe your inflammation.
Avoid dangerous triggers
Avoid common irritants and allergens. Dairy products increase the production of mucus. You should also avoid processed flour, refined sugar, and packaged food.

by  N.Morgan For decades the public was told that Q-tips are beneficial to our ears. Medical Q-tips remove excess wax from the ear, causing a sweet tingling sensation. However, although seemingly innocent, cotton Q-tips can be a great threat to your ears. Cotton buds are first of all, used improperly. There is no clear instruction on how to use a Q-tip rightfully, which ultimately leads to many people experiencing ear damage. Oftentimes serious, Q-tips are known to cause infections in the ear, aggravating the situation even further. What’s more, some now urge that Q-tips may be entirely responsible for an unwelcome brain infection. The Case that Changed the Idea of Q-tips A story on ear infections has really exposed the dangers of using Q-tips. Namely, a man went to the emergency room, following a bad seizure. The man explained how he experienced pain lasting for a couple of hours, followed by a discharge from his ear. At one point the man also lost some of...
