The inflammation in the bronchi, which is an airway in the respiratory tract and a carrier of air to the lungs, causes bronchitis. There is, unfortunately, no cure for chronic bronchitis currently but some relief can be had by making its symptoms less severe so that further damage can be avoided. Following are the home remedies to cure this ailment naturally:

  • Mix 1/2ts each of pepper powder, clove powder and ginger powder. Have them by mixing in a tbsp of honey or in a cup of tea per your choice.
  • Make a paste of a pinch of ammonium chloride, 50 grams fresh spinach leaves and 250 ml water and consume it once daily.
  • The best remedy to cure bronchitis is to have ½ a glass of milk with 1 ts turmeric mixed in it. Taking it on an empty stomach two or three times a day relieves the problem to a great extent.
  • Turpentine oil rubbing on the chest each night is said to cure this ailment.
  • ½ ts of sesame seeds powder with two ts of water or a ½ a ts sesame seeds decoction twice a day is beneficial.
  • Consumption of raw onion juice early morning improves the condition as onions are known for the expectorant properties. They liquefy phlegm and prevent it from being formed further.
  • The intake of the combination of a pinch of common salt, 1 ts of linseed and 1 ts of honey before you go to sleep treats bronchitis.
  • The daily consumption of cabbage juice that is fresh cures the condition.
  • Placing warmed and then cooled a bit castor oil leaves on the chest overnight is also beneficial.
  • Mixing the 7 kernels of almond in a cup of lemon or orange juice and having it each night before you retire helps a great deal in curing bronchitis.
  • Consuming the mixture of ½ ts of ground chicory powder with 1ts of honey three times a day relieves the symptoms of bronchitis.

Taking ½ a ts of steeped and strained and still warm licorice root tea in one cup of hot water three times daily largely improves the condition.
