Bromelain
Because you haven't heard of bromelain, you might not often think of pineapple as a cough remedy. There is some evidence that bromelain, an enzyme found only in the stem and fruit of pineapples, may help to relieve coughing and release throat mucus.
Eating a slice of pineapple or consuming 3.5 ounces of fresh pineapple juice three times a day will provide you with the greatest benefits from bromelain and pineapple. Additionally, there are suggestions that it can help with sinus issues like sinusitis and allergy-related sinus problems, which can contribute to coughs and mucus. However, there isn't enough proof to back this up. Inflammation and swelling may also sometimes be treated with it. Bromelain supplements should not be given to children or adults who are using blood thinners. Additionally, use caution while using bromelain if you're taking antibiotics like amoxicillin because it can increase the absorption of the medication. Before taking any new or unfamiliar supplements, always with your doctor.
