THIPPILLI USES
Today I bring to you 3 effective home remedies using dry ginger and thippili for cold and cough in toddlers. Along with these our not-so-good uninvited guests – cold and flu virus is here!
We took a recent very short visit to India for attending two marriage functions and as a compliment my LO carried a new strain of flu virus back. Yes, flu season is at its peak. Most of the kids I know were down with cold and dry cough.
When our writer Anu Prabin asked about some home remedies for cough and cold for her little one, I thought of sharing this effective home remedy to all the worried mommies out there.
Precaution is better than cure:
My paati (grandma) strongly trusts on homemade herbal remedies for most of the illness. Since my childhood whenever my paati visit us or when we visit my dad’s ancestral home, she used to prepare two things without fail to make sure we won’t get illness. She used to bribe us with our favorite sweet snacks for making us drink it.
This paati vaidyam (granny therapy) is very effective and it has helped to boost my immunity a lot by keeping cold and cough at bay to a certain extend.
Once I settled out of India after marriage, I used to take a spoon of ‘chyawanaprash’ every single day. I rarely get infected with cold and cough but for babies and toddlers we can’t give chyawanaprash.
So here I am presenting you my paati vaidyam to get rid of cough naturally. Two main ingredients are used to prepare this mixture.
Dry Ginger
Dry ginger is also known as sukku, chukku or sonth. Dry ginger has a long tradition of numerous health benefits and is the main ingredient for Indian home remedy for cough and cold. Here I am just mentioning of its immune boosting action which is very effective during cold and flu.
Do you know how this humble rhizome fight against cold and flu virus?
Dry ginger warms our body and help in secreting a germ fighting protein called Dermicidin into the sweat by our body sweat glands. Once secreted this protein travels to the skin surface thus giving protection to us by fighting against microbes.
Thippili
Thippili also known as arisi thippili, pippali, pipal or long pepper is best for treating common cold, phlegm and sore throat by loosening and expelling the mucous out of our body.
How to prepare sukku thippili powder for cold and cough in toddlers?
