Treatment of obstructive bronchitis with butter

This method of treatment of obstructive bronchitis is good for compresses, the medicinal mixture should be prepared for one compress. You should take equal parts of butter and honey (about a tablespoon), pour into an enamel bowl and warm well, so that the mass has a uniform consistency. Slightly cooled mass should be smeared back and chest, wrapped in cotton cloth, then a layer of polyethylene and on top put on a woolen sweater or jacket. Compresses do daily at night, for a month, although relief comes after a week of regular procedures. However, treatment should not be discontinued, since an incomplete course of procedures can affect the further development of chronic obstructive bronchitis, whose treatment is much more difficult and slower.

One of the oldest means of alternative healing is pork lard. Obstructive bronchitis, which is treated in this way, recedes quickly enough.

Treatment of obstructive bronchitis with porcine fats

In a small enamel bowl should be crumbled lard. If you take the interior fat, the effect comes faster. Salo should be melted on low heat and take warm (but not hot, not to burn the esophagus) inside 1-2 tablespoons 5-6 times a day at regular intervals. To kill an unpleasant aftertaste in your mouth after consuming melted lard, you can seize it with a tea daughter of honey.

Another way to get rid of obstructive bronchitis with alternative treatment with lard is a prepared mixture of melted fat, butter and honey. All ingredients are taken in equal amounts, heated in enameled pots on a fire to a homogeneous consistency and taken on an empty stomach on a tablespoon, abundantly washed down with warm milk.

Special food with bronchitis

Promotes the early onset of recovery. The acute form of bronchitis will pass quickly to the stage of stabilization, if the body provides profuse sweating. For this purpose, some decoctions of herbs of a directed sweatshop are perfect.

You can take sage grass, linden flowers, mint, dried or frozen raspberries (not jam). To enhance the healing effect, add a little honey to the broth. Honey can be dissolved in a ready-made broth, or you can use a snack, drinking honey with a decoction. In this case, the amount of honey for one meal should not exceed ½ teaspoon.

Priority for a plentiful drink

When acute bronchitis should be introduced into the diet of a generous drink, replacing them with the basic habitual dishes. It is best to use freshly squeezed orange juice as a medical drink. Before use, the juice should be slightly diluted with water to make it less concentrated.

Everyone, from childhood knows that the best drink during illness, is warm milk with honey, lime or raspberry tea, or, better, a lime tea with raspberry jam. If you do not have anything on hand that can be used as a therapeutic drink, you can use simple water with lemon juice.

The total amount of liquid consumed during the disease should be at least 1.5 liters per day. Provided that the body receives sufficient liquid, the sputum is removed. The more liquid, the more urine is released, and together with it all the toxins formed as a result of the inflammatory process.

Proteins and Vitamins

Food, in contrast to drinking, should be fractional, small portions, but often, up to 5 meals per day. Preference should be given to protein foods. This is because by isolating phlegm with a cough, the body loses protein, which must be reimbursed with incoming food. No restrictions are imposed on fat and carbohydrates during illness.

The body needs vitamins, not only in the acute phase of the disease, but also during the recovery period. The most important vitamin for any disease is vitamin C. Just taking fruits and vegetables rich in this vitamin can be inadequate, so it's best to immediately switch to taking vitamin C in a dragee.

External means of treatment of obstructive bronchitis

Obstructive bronchitis can be treated not only with the help of herbs. For example, rubbing the chest or back with any natural fat can almost completely stop the coughing attack after the first application. Simply rub your chest and back before going to bed, wrap yourself and warm yourself up. In the morning take a shower - although, as a rule, by the morning, fat is completely absorbed.

Preparing medicines based on prescriptions of alternative medicine is a very important matter. Strictly sustained proportions of all components, adherence to the treatment scheme, the necessary number of techniques strictly in time are the main conditions for achieving the desired therapeutic effect and a positive outcome of the disease.

Eliminate - does not mean cure

Whichever alternative means is preferred, it is always necessary to remember that it is possible to cure the disease only with a comprehensive approach to the problem completely. The fight against each individual symptom does not solve the main task - to achieve full recovery. Therefore, when choosing a suitable prescription from alternative medicine, do not forget about modern medications.

When the development of obstructive bronchitis treatment with alternative drugs should go as an additional, the main emphasis should be made on the classical methods of modern medicine. In such a complex disease, some alternative recipes are not enough.
