You may need to remove mucus from your body if you suffer from a chronic cough that won’t go away, or if you wake up with puffy and crusty eyes in the morning. There are over 12 foods that cause excessive mucus in the body, and most of these foods a large majority of the population consumes.

Excessive mucus means the body is in a state of agitation, and removing it is as important as brushing your teeth in the morning. When your body produces excess mucus, it is used to capture irritant particles and shuttle them out of the body. How does the body get them out? By coughing, stuffing up your nose, making breathing difficult and more.

Eliminating foods that cause mucus is key to helping the body function at an optimal pace. These foods include things like dairy, all corn products, eggs, sugary treats, wheat, deep fried foods, soy products, safflower/sunflower oil, jams and jellies, high-fat red meat, alcohol and caffeine.

There are also certain foods that help relieve excess mucus, some of the best being radishes, dill, citrus fruits, all leafy greens, celery and ginger and turmeric. In fact, one of the best mucus dissolvers in the world are radishes. Including plenty of radishes in your diet and consuming juices such as the one in this recipe will help improve your mucus state significantly.

      No need to liquify, if you put it through a juicer, it will be pure liquid.

    I am using your oregano tea for lung/sinus/mucus/difficulty clearing throat, etc. I have had issues with this for a number of years. I recently underwent a balloon synoplasty on both sides and turbinate reduction surgery (3 weeks ago). I have not felt any relief yet. My question is – in order to feel/see benefits from the oregano tea, how often should it be consumed? 1x per day a few x’s per day?

      I would say 1-2 times per day.

    Thank you for getting back to me – I love the recipe!! I was also wondering if consuming the oregano tea 3-4 times per day is excessive and/or overuse?

      Hi Terrie – yes, I don’t think you would have to drink it 3-4 times a day.

    – 1 large bunch of dill
    – 4 large carrots
    – 4 oranges, peeled

      Haha you’re right – I’m not sure why it’s listed as such. I think when I wrote the article I meant for the top 3 ingredients being radish, citrus and ginger to help get rid of mucus. The other ingredients do help but you don’t need to add them.

      You could blend in blender add water and then you would have to strain it. Agree a juicer is a billion times better but if you don’t have one or the funds the. Blend and strain. You will get all the benefits
