Coughing with phlegm is a common disease in children, and the recovery rate of coughing itself is relatively slow. If accompanied by symptoms of coughing up phlegm, the recovery process will be even longer. Dietary therapy is the first choice for many parents, as there are no side effects. Therefore, now let's learn about what foods have good phlegm resolving effects for babies?
Pear is the preferred fruit for clearing heat and resolving phlegm, and among many fruits, it has the best phlegm resolving effect. If the baby's cough persists for a long time and is accompanied by symptoms of excessive phlegm, parents can cut the pear into slices or make it into puree to feed the baby, or use a juicer to extract pear juice for the baby to drink. Consistent use can have a significant effect.
Garlic actually has a very obvious cough and phlegm reducing effect. If the baby has persistent coughing, parents can also add crushed garlic powder to the baby's complementary food and feed it together with the complementary food. This can also have a certain relieving effect on the baby's cough and phlegm.
Carrots are also one of the good choices for relieving cough and resolving phlegm. If the baby's teeth have already grown, parents can cut the radish into diced or thinly sliced pieces and cook them until they are tender before feeding them to the baby. If the baby is still too young to bite and eat on their own, parents can also squeeze the radish into juice for the baby to drink, and the effect is the same.
Momordica grosvenorii and sugar cane are also small experts in relieving cough and resolving phlegm. If the baby cannot eat sugarcane by themselves, parents can squeeze sugarcane juice for the baby to drink; Momordica grosvenorii can be directly brewed with water to drink for babies. Both of these have excellent cough and phlegm reducing effects.
