It shows a before/after picture of lungs (dark vs. pink), plus a bowl of garlic and ginger, and claims this mixture “clears mucus from the lungs” and helps with dry cough, sinusitis, bronchitis, and sore throat.
✅ What the ingredients can actually do
Garlic and ginger are both known for being anti-inflammatory and soothing in some cases:
- Ginger can help reduce nausea and may soothe sore throat or cough.
- Garlic has mild antimicrobial properties and may support immune health.
They can support symptoms, especially when combined with rest and fluids.
⚠️ But this claim is not medically accurate
This kind of “clears mucus” / “heals lungs” statement is overstated.
No home remedy can clear mucus from the lungs or cure sinusitis/bronchitis. These conditions can be caused by viruses, bacteria, allergies, or other issues.
Safe, realistic ways to relieve mucus and cough
1. Hydration
Warm liquids (tea, broth, water) help thin mucus.
2. Steam inhalation
Hot shower or steam bowl for 5–10 minutes.
3. Honey + warm water
Honey can soothe cough (not for children under 1 year).
4. Ginger tea
Boil ginger slices, strain, add honey/lemon.
5. Salt water gargle
Helps sore throat and mucus.
🚨 Seek medical care if you have:
- Fever lasting >3 days
- Shortness of breath or chest pain
- Green/yellow mucus that persists
- Wheezing or asthma symptoms
- Symptoms lasting more than 2 weeks
If you want, I can give you a safe homemade ginger + garlic recipe that can help soothe cough/sore throat (not a “cure”), or help you identify if you need medical care.
