I'm one of those people who catch colds and coughs very quickly. Imagine if the weather changes, winter begins, or it rains, I'm probably the first person in my family to get a cold and sore throat. Sometimes, the phlegm in my chest makes it difficult to breathe, and the constant coughing only worsens the condition.

Then, I tried a home remedy my grandmother gave me, and believe me, my cough vanished within a few days. The most important thing is that this remedy didn't cause me any side effects. I then spoke with a dietitian about this remedy, and she also declared it effective. In fact, she said she uses it herself and recommends it to others. Come, you too should know about this home remedy, which is also approved by dietician Radhika Goyal .
