Chew It To Dissolve Mucus – Your Lungs Will Love You: Rosemary! (Page 2 ) | March 2, 2025

Annonce:

The antioxidants in rosemary, such as carnosol and carnosic acid, can help protect the lungs from damage by neutralizing free radicals. This action helps maintain healthy lung tissue and supports respiratory function.

Antibacterial and Antiviral:

Rosemary has antibacterial and antiviral properties, which can be beneficial in preventing and fighting infections that may lead to increased mucus production.

Chewing Fresh Rosemary:
- Simply chewing on a sprig of fresh rosemary can help release its essential oils, which are thought to be beneficial in loosening mucus and clearing the airways.
- Note: The flavor can be quite strong and pungent, so it may not be suitable for everyone.
Rosemary Tea:
- Steep a teaspoon of dried rosemary or a fresh sprig in boiling water for about 10 minutes. Strain and drink the tea while warm to help soothe the throat and respiratory tract, and to benefit from its mucus-dissolving properties.
- You can drink rosemary tea two to three times a day.
Rosemary Essential Oil:
- Use rosemary essential oil in a diffuser to inhale its benefits. You can also add a few drops to a pot of hot water and inhale the steam to help clear mucus from the lungs.
- Essential oils should be used cautiously, as they are highly concentrated. Do not ingest essential oils or apply them directly to the skin without proper dilution.
