Recommendations

Some recommendations for chronic bronchitis

Moisten the air. Use a humidifier or vaporizer to increase humidity which will facilitate the process to loosen and remove the phlegm from the body. In the case of the vaporizer, the water can be added apple cider vinegar or eucalyptus leaves. This activates the healing of bronchitis.

Drink plenty of fluids. It is advisable to take daily for at least two liters (2 quarts) of fluid that includes water, juices, teas and soups. However, it is preferable that they are warm, not cold. The large amount of liquid favorably affects the viscosity of phlegm so it can be expelled. If you drink alcohol or caffeine, the diuretic effect causes loss of fluids in the body which prevents the proper removal of phlegm.
