This recipe isn’t just any over-the-counter solution; it’s a cherished concoction passed down from my mother-in-law, revered in our family for its effectiveness in treating coughs the natural way. It’s stood the test of time and has been a go-to remedy in our household for many years.
Ingredients:
- 5 whole walnuts (in the shell)
- 2 onions

The Magic of Walnuts and Onions
Walnuts and onions might seem like an unusual combination, but they work wonders when it comes to respiratory health.
- Walnuts: Rich in anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties, walnuts are great for overall health, especially for the lungs.
- Onions: Known for their expectorant properties, onions can help in loosening mucus in the chest, thereby relieving cough.
Let’s Make the Remedy!
- Preparation: Start by gathering your ingredients. Make sure the walnuts are fresh and the onions are nicely peeled.
- Cooking: In a pot, combine the whole walnuts (with their shells), onions, and water. Bring the mixture to a boil.
- The Waiting Game: Let the mixture simmer until about half of the liquid remains. This concentrates the beneficial properties of the ingredients.
- Straining: Once done, strain the mixture. You’ll be left with a potent, health-packed liquid.
- Usage: Drink a small cup of this concoction throughout the day. It’s best consumed warm for maximum benefit.
