Sea Coconut, Tiger Milk Mushroom, Snow Fungus & Fig Soup

Why people make this soup

The elderly and young children have gentler immune defenses, so a cold can leave them with a stubborn cough. If a cough lingers, do see a doctor to find the cause. But when it isn’t a serious lung infection and the dryness simply won’t ease, a lung-moistening food therapy can be a comfort. Nourilo favors genuine African sea coconut, which is traditionally valued to soothe coughs and clear phlegm — its quality far outshines the cheaper Thai palm-seed version.
