PNEUMONIA

- is a respiratory condition characterized by inflammation in the lungs due to a bacterial, viral or fungal infection.

The body usually prevents these organisms from infecting your lungs but, at times, they may succeed in overpowering your immune system even if you are generally in good health.In most cases, it occurs as a mild condition and clears up in two to three weeks.

However, it can become very serious and may even prove fatal. It is particularly dangerous for infants, young children, adults age 65 or older, and people who have a weakened immune system or underlying health problems.

SYMPTOMS

The most common symptoms of pneumonia include cough, fever, shaking chills, and shortness of breath. It can also cause other symptoms, such as a headache, loss of appetite, fatigue, sweating, nausea and vomiting, muscle pain, and chest pain when breathing deeply or coughing. Older adults with pneumonia may also experience confusion or delirium.

[i]TOP REMEDIES FOR PNEUMONIA.

1. GARLIC

Garlic has antimicrobial properties that fight off bacteria, viruses and fungi. It also helps bring down the body temperature and increases expectoration to clear phlegm out of the chest and lungs.

2. CAYENNE PEPPER

Cayenne pepper has high capsaicin content that stimulates the release of mucous from the respiratory passages. Thus, it helps clear the mucus from the respiratory system. Cayenne pepper is also a good source of beta-carotene, which helps in the healthy development of mucus membranes.

3. FENUGREEK SEEDS

Fenugreek has mucolytic properties, that is, it helps break up congestion. Furthermore, it induces sweating which reduces fever and helps remove toxins from the body.

4. SESAME SEEDS

This home remedy helps expel phlegm as sesame seeds act as a natural expectorant. Boil one tablespoon of sesame seeds in a cup of water. Mix in one tablespoon of linseed (flaxseeds) and continue boiling. Strain the mixture and then add one teaspoon of honey and a pinch of salt.Drink this mixture once daily.

5. VEGETABLE JUICE

Fresh carrot juice, spinach juice, beet juice, cucumber juice, and other vegetable juices are excellent for your health, especially when dealing with pneumonia. They boost immunity, dissolve mucus, and aid in detoxification. Being rich in phosphorus and chlorine, parsnip juice, too, is highly beneficial for your lungs and bronchial system.

6. STEAM INHALATION

Steam helps fight infection and improves breathing by relieving coughing and congestion. Boil water in a pot and add a few drops of essential oils such as EUCALYPTUS, lavender, TEA TREE, lemon, or CAMPHOR oil. Inhale the steam from this solution. While inhaling, cover your head with a towel so that the steam does not escape.

Taking a hot shower is also beneficial.
