What fruit can help you recover from a cold quickly?

1. Watermelon

Eat watermelon when you have a cold. "Compendium of Materia Medica in Southern Yunnan" says that watermelon can "cure all fever symptoms." Watermelon is a fruit that came from the tropics. Because it is cold in nature, it is also called cold melon. The fruit is red, and eating more of it can act as a diuretic, thus relieving heat. If you feel thirsty, eat some watermelon and you will feel cool immediately. You can also eat the watermelon rind, which can help lower blood pressure.

2. Pear

Pear is the most commonly used fruit for relieving cough among the people. It has the effects of promoting salivation and quenching thirst, clearing away heat and relieving cough. Pears are rich in nutrients and can improve the respiratory system and lung function. Western medical research has found that people who eat pears regularly are much less likely to catch a cold than those who rarely eat pears. Each pear contains about 10 grams of dietary fiber, which can meet 40% of the body's daily dietary fiber requirement. These fibers can help lower cholesterol levels in the body.

3. Sugarcane

Sugarcane is the only fruit that is used as a stem and it is also the fruit that contains the most fiber (including non-dietary fiber). Sugarcane has a high sugar content and sweet juice, and is known as a "sugar water warehouse". It can bring sweet enjoyment to consumers and provide considerable calories and nutrition.
