Treatment of bronchitis with badger fat in adults and children: whether it helps and how to use it

Today, most people prefer folk remedies to drug treatment. And this is not surprising: folk remedies have virtually no side effects and are better accepted by the body, and their effect is sometimes higher than that of pills and injections. For example, badger fat has long been considered the number one remedy for bronchitis: recipes for its use are still passed down from generation to generation. Does badger fat really help cope with lung diseases?

The fact that badger fat can successfully heal wounds, treat colds and strengthen the immune system was known 200 years ago. Residents of Siberian villages treated frostbite, bronchitis, and animal bites with badger fat.

During the war, fat was actively used to speed up the healing of wounds and to improve the condition of exhausted wounded soldiers.

Today, most people remember the badger remedy only when they have to fight a cough: indeed, the fat has a number of useful properties that allow you to quickly and permanently get rid of bronchitis.

It is not always possible to get to a doctor, and sometimes medication does not bring the expected result. Therefore, introducing badger fat to treatment can become an alternative, time-tested option. The fat itself cannot be called a medicine: but its action, aimed at stimulating the body's own forces, helps to cope with the disease faster.

Of course, you can't self-medicate such complex and dangerous pathologies as pneumonia and tuberculosis - in such cases, the consequences can be fatal. But the use of fat as part of complex therapy is quite possible and even necessary.
