Mix Bananas, Honey, and Water: Cough and Bronchitis Will Disappear
During the winter season, colds and coughs are always there to remind us of our frailty. Additionally, coughs can be a result of smoking, air pollution, second-hand smoking, and old age.
There is a way for the body to clean up the respiratory system and indicate an infection such as bronchitis, or some other issue in the body.
According to the Mayo Clinic:
“A cough is considered “acute” if it lasts less than three weeks. It is considered “chronic” if it lasts longer than eight weeks (four weeks in children).
Some causes of coughs include:
Common causes of acute coughs :
- Common cold
- Influenza (flu)
- Inhaling an irritant
- Pneumonia
- A whooping cough
Common causes of chronic coughs:
- Allergies
- Asthma (most common in children)
- Bronchitis
- Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD)
- Postnasal drip”
Moreover, “although the causes are varied, the reason you cough is to help your body get rid of foreign material or mucus from your lungs and upper airway passages. It’s one of your body’s protective mechanisms designed to keep you breathing easy. Sometimes, it’s easy to determine why you’re coughing but it can also be a mystery.
By paying attention to the details – the sound of your cough, for instance, along with accompanying symptoms – you can often identify the cause, which is important for getting on the road to recovery. Following are seven common reasons for a cough, and what to do about them.”- says Dr.Mercola.
Out first reaction to a cough is a visit to the pharmacy, where we buy a cough syrup and believe that it is the best way to soothe it. However, it is not the case apparently, as researchers have found that they are rarely effective.
Fortunately, the versatile natural medicine is here to help again!
Homemade Banana Cough Cream
Ingredients:
- 2 ripe organic bananas
- 2 tablespoons of raw organic honey
- 400 milliliters of water
Instructions:
In a bowl, mash the bananas using a wooden spoon, boil the water, and add it to the bowl. Leave it aside to cool for half an hour, covered.
Then, add honey, stir, take 100 ml of it 4 times daily. Before consumption, you can heat it a bit.
Despite relieving the cough and the accompanying symptoms, bananas will boost your serotonin levels, and help you to easily fall asleep.

No. According to the American Academy of Pediatrics it is 1 year for honey. There is also no evidence that waiting to introduce baby-safe (soft), allergy-causing foods, such as eggs, dairy, soy, peanuts, or fish, beyond 4 to 6 months of age prevents food allergy. They can have strawberries.

Doctors actually recommend honey, peanut butter and eggs starting at 6 months now to prevent babies from developing allergies. I’m curious if this works in general.

They recommend trace amounts of honey until a year old and re peanut butter: “The American Academy of Allergy, Asthma, and Immunology recommends introducing peanut butter to your baby only after other solid foods have been fed to them safely, without any symptoms of allergies. This can happen between 6 and 8 months of age.”

Yes, babies younger than 1 year old should not be given honey. Clostridium bacteria that cause infant botulism usually thrive in soil and dust. … As kids get older, they can have honey because their mature digestive systems move the Clostridium bacteria spores through the body before they can cause harm. They are saying okay to give Peanut Butter earlier but don’t give them Honey until after 1 year of age. Give them Strawberries and Blueberries in that little fruit netting thing, freeze the fruit just a little bit so they can use it to teeth on. Not until they can hold it and know the hand to mouth feeding thing though

You can leave mashed bananas in fridge for up to three days , so I am assuming for at least that long. That is If it lasts that long, 400 ml, 100 ml four times a day I would think it should be gone by the end of the day.
