Tuberculosis (TB) is a serious lung infection caused by bacteria. While medical treatment with antibiotics is essential, natural remedies can support recovery and boost immunity. Here are some ways to help your body fight TB naturally.
1. Eat a Nutrient-Rich Diet
A healthy diet strengthens your immune system. Include foods rich in:
- Vitamin C (oranges, lemons, bell peppers) to help fight infections.
- Vitamin D (sunlight, eggs, fatty fish) to support lung health.
- Protein (beans, nuts, chicken) to repair body tissues.
2. Take Herbal Remedies
Certain herbs may help ease symptoms:
- Garlic has antibacterial properties that may slow TB bacteria growth.
- Turmeric reduces lung inflammation. Mix it with warm milk for better absorption.
- Ginger soothes the lungs and improves breathing.
3. Improve Lung Health
- Steam inhalation with eucalyptus or peppermint oil helps clear mucus.
- Breathing exercises like yoga improve lung capacity.
4. Get Enough Rest & Fresh Air
- Sleep well to help your body heal.
- Spend time in well-ventilated areas to get fresh air and sunlight.
