Some babies are particularly prone to coughing as the seasons change, especially in spring and winter. Due to the dry weather and low humidity, they are particularly prone to dry cough. So what should I do if my baby keeps coughing? What food therapy methods can alleviate it?
1. Sugarcane water
Sugarcane is a fruit that can relieve cough and phlegm, but babies cannot chew sugarcane by themselves, so parents can make sugarcane water for babies to eat conveniently.
2. Pear
Among many fruits, pears are the most effective in clearing heat and resolving phlegm. We often hear that parents can stew snow pear water for their baby, because pears can produce fluid and moisten dryness, which is also good for relieving cough. Parents can also directly slice snow pear and give it to the baby.
3. Pineapple
Pineapple contains enzyme components that can effectively alleviate cough symptoms in babies, break down protein in their food, and enhance their immunity.
4. Yuzu
Grapefruits contain nutrients such as vitamins and carotenoids, which can help relieve cough and benefit the lungs. However, it is important to note that grapefruit has a cold nature and should not be eaten too much.
5. Citrus
If a baby keeps coughing dry, it may cause sore throat, and citrus has a strong sour taste, which is very effective in treating sore throat.
6. Garlic
Garlic can help reduce phlegm and cough, which should be known to many parents. If the baby keeps coughing, parents can find a way to crush garlic and add it to the baby's food.
