Question
Can you eat bananas when you have a cold and cough?
Answer
You can eat bananas when you have a cold. Cold and coughs often occur due to weakened body resistance after catching a cold, leading to congestion and swelling of the respiratory mucosa, which in turn causes coughing and expectoration. Treatment requires active medication, and it’s also suggested to eat light and easy-to-digest foods, as well as ingredients that help nourish the lungs, such as white pears and black fungus. Moreover, it’s advisable to avoid spicy and irritating foods, and drink plenty of water to prevent colds and coughs.
