Does This Recipe Really Remove Mucus From the Lungs?
Not directly.
There is no strong evidence that honey and lemon physically pull mucus out of the lungs.
What they may do is:
- Soothe throat irritation
- Make coughing more comfortable
- Encourage fluid intake
- Help thin secretions indirectly through hydration
Your lungs already have natural clearing mechanisms, including mucus, cilia, and coughing.
Other Simple Ways to Help With Mucus
