Autumn and winter are the traditional times for the intensification of colds. As a rule, most of these diseases are accompanied by severe coughing fits. They interfere with sleep at night, have a negative effect on the entire body, and in some cases can seriously harm the upper and lower respiratory tract. Using the remedies from the arsenal of traditional medicine, many people unjustifiably forget that dog fat when coughing is one of the best treatment options. And there are a number of reasons for this.
The healing properties of dog fat
If an ordinary cough can be cured without problems with milk, butter and honey, then such products will be ineffective for tuberculosis, pneumonia and bronchitis. In this case, dog fat will help with coughing. It has excellent healing and disinfecting properties. This tool is one of the most powerful natural antiseptics, which includes the following useful components:
- vitamins E, A, B;
- active minerals;
- stearic, oleic, palmitic acids, etc.
In addition to treating coughs, dog fat is good for relieving muscle and joint pain. It has practically no contraindications and can be used internally and externally for rubbing. The product is suitable for children and adults.
The benefits of using dog fat are as follows:- Relief of dry cough.
- Relief and minimization of seizures.
- Antiseptic effect.
- Warming effect.
- Removal of irritation of the mucous membrane.
- Acceleration of the formation and elimination of phlegm from the body.
Features of the use of a remedy
For a medicine to have the proper effect, it must be used correctly. Animal fat can be used in combination with pharmacological preparations and physiotherapeutic procedures. In this case, the only important condition for the use of this tool is the mandatory heating of dog fat to a comfortable temperature immediately before use.
What is the correct way to take such a product? Fat is best consumed three times a day with one tablespoon meal.
It helps to get rid of the unpleasant taste:
- adding honey;
- eating dog fat with bread (like butter or pâté) and salt.
There are a lot of options for using animal fat, but you should not get carried away with it (we are still talking about a medicine). The best effect is achieved when the internal intake of such a product is combined with rubbing. This procedure can significantly speed up the rehabilitation process and ease coughing attacks.
After application, it is recommended to tightly close the can of dog fat and place it in a dark place where sunlight does not penetrate. The optimum storage temperature for the product is from -20 to +5 degrees. In such conditions, the product will preserve its useful properties as long as possible.
With inflammation of the bronchi
Chronic bronchitis is not a disease that can be easily cured with regular pharmacy syrups. Try dog fat, which can be used with soups or milk, for bronchospasm. Feel free to experiment to clog the unpleasant taste of fat. At the same time, one should not forget that with pleurisy, such a medicine cannot be used.
Fat treatment for babies
For children under 3 years of age, this product is contraindicated for internal use. At such a young age, the absorption of fats is still not good enough and very slowly. That is why, when coughing in children, it is better to give preference to external use in the form of rubbing. But you can only massage with dog fat at normal body temperature (do not forget about the warming effect of dog fat).
It is best to apply fat to the baby's chest and back after bathing. You can rub the product into the crumbs' feet. After this, the little patient should be well wrapped in blankets and put to bed at night. In this case, do not forget to ensure that the baby does not hypothermia after sweating. After the massage, it is advisable to dress the child in natural fiber pajamas (ideal is cotton).
Although dog fat has no side effects, it should be used in dosage. Yes, it is harmless to the body. But do not forget to take into account the age factor when treating. In addition, people with allergies should be discouraged from using this remedy.
Duration of therapy
Dog fat should be treated until the cough disappears completely. You can use the following scheme: we distribute a two-hundred-gram glass of fat for 10 days, we use the product three times a day with meals. Then we take a break for 3-5 days and repeat the course of treatment.
Amazingly, when using dog fat, the patient himself does not notice how he gradually stops coughing. Symptoms disappear imperceptibly, the disease recedes.
