Probiotics
Although probiotics may not be a direct remedy for dry coughs, they may help boost the immune system by restoring balance to the gut’s bacterial population. Any illnesses that could cause the cough can be fought off with the help of a robust immune system.
A previous 2013 research found that one probiotic (Lactobacillus) modestly prevents the common cold. Probiotics have also been linked to a reduction in the prevalence of children’s respiratory tract infections, based on a 2016 meta-analysis.
Lactobacillus and other probiotic supplements are available from health food and medicine stores. There can be a wide range in the quantity and kind of probiotic organisms in foods. Natural yogurt, kimchi, sauerkraut, miso soup, and other foods are among those that naturally contain many probiotics. In addition to consuming probiotic-rich meals, it could be advisable to take probiotic pills.
