Phlegm often accompanies colds and other upper respiratory infections. While not a serious health
problem, if phlegm is not treated timely, it can clog and irritate the bronchial tubes and in turn
cause a secondary upper respiratory infection.
The presence of phlegm is usually indicated by a constant need for throat clearing, constant
cough, runny nose, difficulty breathing, feeling weak and, in some cases, fever. Phlegm tends to
collect and congest in the chest and throat and is usually expelled through coughing.
Phlegm contains the bacteria, virus or inflammatory cells produced in response to an infection. In
addition to infections such as the common cold, flu and bronchitis, phlegm can be caused by an
allergic reaction to irritants such as in asthma and hay fever, damaged vocal cords, and excessive
smoking.

Dealing with phlegm can be incredibly frustrating and seemingly never ending. But there are
effective, natural home remedies that work quickly and without causing side effects.

Here are the top 10 home remedies for phlegm.
1. Steam
Steam inhalation is the best and the simplest way to get rid of phlegm. Inhaling steam into the
nasal passages helps keep phlegm in liquid form so it is easier to eliminate from your system.
Take a steam shower twice daily. Turn your shower to full heat and stay in the closed
bathroom for 10 minutes to help break up the mucus. Be sure to moisturize your body after,
as warm water robs your skin of essential oils and moisture.
Alternatively, pour hot boiling water in a large bowl. Hold a towel over your head and inhale
the steam for five to 10 minutes. This will help loosen the secretions in your lungs. You can
use this simple remedy several times a day.
2. Salt Water
Gargling with warm salt water is another easy way to treat phlegm. While warm water is soothing
for an irritated throat (http://www.top10homeremedies.com/home-remedies/home-remediesfor-sore-throat.html), salt helps destroy bacteria that may be causing your infection and therefore

Add two teaspoons of lemon juice and one tablespoon of honey to a glass of hot water. Drink
this at least three times a day to soothe your throat and reduce phlegm production.
Another simple option is to cut a slice of lemon, sprinkle a little bit of salt and pepper on it
and then suck on the lemon slice. It will help force the phlegm out of your throat. Do this two
or three times a day.
4. Ginger
Ginger is a natural decongestant and has been used to fight off throat and respiratory tract
infections (http://www.top10homeremedies.com/kitchen-ingredients/10-health-benefitsof-ginger.html) for ages.

Also, the antiviral, antibacterial and expectorant properties present in ginger ease congestion in the
throat and chest to help you breathe easier.
Add one tablespoon of fresh ginger slices to one cup of boiled water. Steep for a few minutes
and then add two teaspoons of honey. Drink this soothing ginger tea several times
throughout the day.
Alternatively, chew raw ginger slices several times a day and add ginger to your dishes.
5. Turmeric
Turmeric has strong antiseptic properties that help reduce phlegm by killing the bacteria that cause
excessive mucus production. Also, turmeric helps strengthen the immune system.

Add one teaspoon of turmeric to a glass of hot milk. Drink it once in the morning and again
before going to bed.
Swallow one-half teaspoon of turmeric with a glass of water two or three times a day.
Add one tablespoon of turmeric and a pinch of salt to a glass of hot water. Use it to gargle
several times a day.
6. Chicken Soup
Warm chicken soup can also help treat phlegm. Hot chicken soup will help moisturize the airways
and thin the consistency of the phlegm. It will also soothe an irritated throat and induce relaxation.
Have some chicken soup at least two or three times a day to clear phlegm from your throat. For
increased benefits, add ginger and garlic to the soup. Homemade soup is often more effective than
canned soup, which has preservatives.

There is something wrong with him. People dont need to take 3-4
showers a day & do all the other obsessive things he does to be
perfectly groomed etc. The spitting is just another clue as to this
guys compulsions. These behaviors are just a clue to underlying
problems, they are not really problems themselves.
