Early or chronic cough with excessive phlegm can eat pears. Those who are in the early stage of the disease or cough for a long time with excessive phlegm can eat some pears. Compendium of Materia Medica once recorded that pears can "moisten the lungs and cool the heart, reduce phlegm and reduce fire ...". This is because pears contain sugar conjugates and tannins. Adding Fritillaria cirrhosa and crystal sugar to steam pears is better.

Extended data:
Although everyone has different reasons for coughing, there are differences between cold and heat, such as cold cough, hot cough, dry cough and chronic cough. When eating fruits, we should distinguish between cold and heat: people with deficiency and cold constitution can choose warm fruits, such as litchi, longan, pomegranate and orange. Eating fruit can relieve phlegm and cough, which has a certain effect on relieving this cough. But if you want to cure cough completely, you still need to take medicine and pay attention to the patient's diet.
Pear is the most widely used fruit for relieving cough, which has the effects of promoting fluid production to quench thirst, clearing away heat and relieving cough. Pear is rich in nutrition and can improve respiratory system and lung function. Western medicine research has found that people who often eat pears are much less likely to catch a cold than those who seldom eat pears. Each pear contains about 10g of dietary fiber, which can meet 40% of the daily dietary fiber demand. These fibers can help lower the cholesterol content in the body.
Actually, there are many ways to do it. The most common way is to boil Fritillaria cirrhosa, crystal sugar or honey, then dig out the core, add crystal sugar and Fritillaria powder and steam it and eat it directly, which has a good cough relieving effect. It can obviously relieve wind-heat cold, fever, dry mouth, cough, expectoration and other symptoms. For patients with wind-heat cold, you can use a raw pear, wash it and cut it into pieces, and add rock sugar to stew water for oral administration, which will have a good effect.
