Natural Pineapple and Red Onion Syrup to help alleviate symptoms of bronchitis. Pineapple contains bromelain, an enzyme with anti-inflammatory properties, and onions are rich in antioxidants, helping to soothe the respiratory tract.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup fresh pineapple (diced)
- 1 medium red onion (sliced thinly)
- 1 tablespoon honey (optional)
- 1 tablespoon ginger (grated, optional for additional anti-inflammatory benefits)
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper (optional, enhances absorption)
Instructions:
- Layer the Ingredients: In a clean glass jar, layer the pineapple and red onion slices, alternating between the two.
- Add Optional Ingredients: If using honey, ginger, and black pepper, sprinkle these over the layered mixture.
- Seal and Store: Cover the jar with a lid and allow it to sit in the refrigerator for 24-48 hours. This allows the natural juices from the pineapple and onion to blend, creating a syrup.
- Strain the Syrup: After the resting period, strain the syrup from the jar into a separate container.
- Dosage: Take 1-2 tablespoons of the syrup twice daily to help soothe bronchitis symptoms.
Notes:
- Store the syrup in the refrigerator and use within 5-7 days.
- Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less honey, based on preference.
- Always consult with a healthcare provider before starting new remedies, especially if on medication.
