Oregano's primary benefits are due to its carvacrol and rosmarinic acid content. Both compounds are natural decongestants and histamine reducers that have shown to be of benefit to the respiratory tract and nasal passage airflow.  The volatile oils in oregano, thymol and carvacol, have been shown to inhibit the growth of harmful bacteria like staphylococcus aureus and pseudomonas aeruginosa. Oregano can be consume in fresh or dried forms, and two to three drops of oregano oil can be added to milk or juice daily. Eucalyptus is a common ingredient in cough lozenges and syrups. It owes its effectiveness to an expectorant compound called cineole, which can ease a cough, fight congestion, and soothe irritated sinus passages.  To use as a steam inhalation, add a  few drops of eucalyptus oil to hot water and inhale steam for up to 15 minutes.   Be aware: Eucalyptus oil may decrease how quickly the liver breaks down some medications. Taking eucalyptus oil along with some medications can increase their effects and side effects. Before using eucalyptus oil, talk to your healthcare provider to determine if you take any medications that may be effected, Medications such as Voltaren, Ibuprofen, Motrin, Celebrex, Warfarin, Allegra,  and others. A sauna or hot water shower increases the secretion of sweat, and helps the lungs rid themselves of toxic substances.  Be sure to drink water after you take a long shower or spend time in a sauna because you do not want to risk becoming dehydrated. Ensure any hot tubs are properly cleaned to avoid any infections.  High heat encourages bacterial growth, and although the water or surroundings may smell strongly of chlorine, it is hard to maintain bactericidal levels of dissolved chlorine gas in hot water. On testing, the bath may be found to contain high levels of chlorine, but most of it may be in a form that has little effect on contaminating organisms. Peppermint and peppermint oil contain menthol, a soothing ingredient known to relax the smooth muscles of the respiratory tract and promote free breathing. Paired with the antihistamine effect of peppermint, menthol is a fantastic decongestant. Consider chewing two to three peppermint leaves (as opposed to candied versions) in order to get the most immediate benefits. The mullein plant has been known to clear mucus and cleanse the bronchial tubes. Both the flowers and the leaves of the mullein plant are used to make an herbal extract that may help to strengthen the lungs.  Mullein is used by herbal practitioners to clear excess mucus from the lungs, cleanse the bronchial tubes, and reduce inflammation present in the respiratory tract. You can make a tea can from one teaspoon of the dried herb and one cup of boiled water. If you are congested, you might find licorice root tea to be particularly soothing. Licorice is thought to decrease swelling, thin mucus secretions, and decrease coughing.  Licorice may help to thin the phlegm in the respiratory tract, aiding in the expulsion of mucus. It is also thought to have antibacterial and antiviral effects which may help fight off viral and bacterial infections. It is currently being studied for its possible role in the  prevention of some cancers, including lung cancer, as it has been shown to inhibit the growth of certain non-small cancer cells.  Consuming ginger root tea mixed with lemon can facilitate less laborious breathing. Raw or cooked ginger can also improve digestion.

Article: Easy-to-obtain antacids like Maalox, Rolaids, and Tums contain calcium, magnesium, or aluminum and can help neutralize neutralize or counteract the acid in the stomach to make it less corrosive. Antacids can be purchased over-the-counter at pharmacies and drug stores.  One of the most prescribed antacids is Maalox. Its recommended dose is one to two tablets four times a day. Though some people find these helpful in treating the casual occurrence of heart burn or indigestion, these may not be strong enough in cases of chronic indigestion. One of the main causes of chronic indigestion is excessive stomach acid which leaks upwards into the esophagus and causes discomfort. Acid blockers (also known as H2 blockers) work to reduce the production of stomach acid, thereby making the stomach contents less acidic so that when they do leak into the esophagus, it will be less irritating.  The most widely recommended H2 blocker is ranitidine, or Zantac, which can be obtained OTC or with a prescription. Ranitidine can be taken orally in tablet form. In general, most H2 blockers are to be taken 30 to 60 minutes before eating (but only twice per day maximum).  Acid blockers do not act as quickly as antacids but they last longer. In fact, acid blockers can work for several hours and are best used as a preventive measure. Proton pump inhibitors work by blocking a chemical system called the hydrogen-potassium adenosine triphosphatase enzyme system, which produces stomach acids. If the level of stomach acid is low, then the abdominal pain in chronic indigestion can be minimized.  Physicians recommend PPIs when acid blockers don't provide lasting relief or when you have problems in the esophagus thanks to GERD. One PPI called Prilosec is available OTC, whereas others, including Aciphex, Nexium, Prevacid, Protonix, and stronger Prilosec, require prescription. Alginates, such as the OTC brand Gaviscon, create a foam barrier that floats on top of the contents of your stomach and keeps your stomach acids from pushing back up to the esophagus. Because they create that barrier between the stomach acid and the esophagus, alginates are especially good at providing relief from acid reflux and heartburn.  Alginates work faster than H2 blockers and last longer than antacids. They come in both liquid and tablet form, so you should use whatever you prefer. You should take alginates when you experience symptoms and not before a meal, since the food passing through the esophagus can disrupt the barrier and make it less effective. Reglan, or metoclopramide, increases digestive contractions, which helps to move food through the digestive system and into the intestines. The math is simple: speedier digestive means less heartburn.  Reglan should only be considered a short-term treatment and only as a last resort when the other medicines mentioned above do not provide sufficient relief. Do not use Reglan for more than 12 weeks.  Reglan requires a prescription and can be taken in tablet or liquid form, usually 30 minutes before meals and before bed. NSAIDs are not given to patients with chronic indigestion to relieve abdominal pain because these drugs can irritate the intestinal lining and may aggravate the condition. Instead, antidepressants are prescribed for pain relief.  Antidepressants aid in pain relief by reducing the ability of the nerve cells to reabsorb brain chemicals such as serotonin and noradrenaline. These chemicals accumulate outside the nerve cells if they are not reabsorbed. This results in the inhibition of pain messages to the spinal cord. Amitriptyline is usually prescribed for this purpose. Its therapeutic dose is 10 to 25 mg daily, which is gradually increased by an increment of 10 or 25 mg each week.  Always consult your physician about the possibilities of taking an antidepressant for pain relief.
