Ayurvedic Cough Relieving Syrup
Ayurveda is a highly
comprehensive system of nutrition and medicine. By providing an in-depth
understanding of energetics, chemistry, and constitution, Ayurveda can help to
provide solutions to ailments that Western medicine may not be aware of. The
Ayurvedic word for a cough is Kasa, and is considered to be one of two types of
respiratory illness classified in Ayurveda, the other being Svasa (breathing
difficulties). Coughs are believed to be caused by an excess of a certain type
of prana. Prana can be divided into five different vayus, or ‘winds,’ each with
its own quality. The vayu responsible for coughs is known as Apana Vayu, and is
responsible for the elimination of all substances from the body – including the
carbon monoxide from our lungs. When Apana Vayu becomes obstructed, this
creates a disturbing upward flow of the energy. This can manifest as coughs,
stuck mucus, and other respiratory problems. Ayurvedic
medicine for respiratory problems as such becomes very effective in
bringing back the normal conditions. Since, most of the cough-related medicines
are available either in the decoction or syrup form, you can find Ayurvedic
cough syrup containing beneficial herbs, without any fuss in the markets.
There are several cough syrups
available in the market today, but if you are looking for the best
medicine for cough, then do try Bronchiofly from Butterfly
Ayurveda. This Ayurvedic
medicine for cough is sugar-free and helps clear the respiratory
tracts and protects the lungs and throat against infections and viruses.
Bronchiofly can be considered as one of the best cough syrup in India and is
made up of herbal ingredients like Vasa, Tulsi, Gojhiva, Khatmi, Mulethi,
Kantakari, Kali Mirch, Pippali, Shunthi, Pushkara, and Banaphsa. This decoction
based ayurvedic syrup has multiple actions in the management of
dry cough, wet cough, sore throat, throat pain, allergic cough, bronchitis,
relieving inflammation of the bronchioles and hoarseness of voice.
A few other common herbal
remedies for managing cough with Ayurveda includes; having a glass of warm
milk, taken with turmeric and honey, can help fight bacteria contributing to
respiratory problems. Liquorice root can be chewed or brewed into a tea to
fight inflammation and to enhance airflow in the lungs. Ginger and honey can be
blended together to make a soothing, antibacterial cough syrup. Using a
decoction of anise seeds as the base for making teas, and consuming plenty of
immune-boosting teas, such as tulsi. Building strength and health of the
respiratory system by performing pranayama exercises. Considering installing a
humidifier in your room, or creating steam by heating up a pot of water with a
herbal infusion. You can also inhale the steam from the pot for a more direct
effect. Avoiding heavy, complex meals, favouring light, nourishing foods in
easy-to-digest forms such as soups.
