    Mucus Phlegm is a problem that many people face today. From people who have common cold to people suffering from asthma. Mucus is a big problem because it constricts the flow air in the windpipe. Chronic sinus produces a lot of problems such as snoring, coughing, hacking, and stuffy and runny noses. There is a natural way to stop or limit the production of mucus phlegm by eating the right food. Avoid dairy products, as aids in the increase of mucus production. Fruits and vegetables on the other hand restrict the production of mucus. Temperature of the food also plays a big role. Cold foods constrict, while hot foods open up the windpipe.

    Mucus is a slippery secretion produced by mucous membranes that protect areas of the body. While normal amounts of mucus support wellness, excessive production can cause adverse effects ranging from mild discomfort to difficulty breathing. Certain foods may help reduce mucus production:
    *According to the University of Maryland Medical Center (UMMC) anti-inflammatory oils including cold-water fish such as salmon, albacore tuna, mackeral, sardines and lake trout, and nuts and seeds helps in reducing mucus production.
    *Warm liquids (soups, tea, hot cocoa etc) may also reduce the occurrence of mucus.
    *Probiotics (yoghurt, buttermilk, fermented milk, fermented soy products and foods and beverages fortified with probiotics) improve digestive health and protect the body from harmful bacteria.
