During autumn and winter, dry throat and cough are common symptoms, so it is important to focus on nourishing yin. From the perspective of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), lily flower tea is a good choice. Lily has the effects of reducing heat, calming the mind, moistening the lungs, and resolving phlegm. It is effective for treating cough due to yin deficiency, excessive internal heat with phlegm, insomnia, and excessive dreaming. Lily contains beneficial nutrients such as protein, calcium, phosphorus, iron, fat, starch, vitamins, and alkaloids.

From the perspective of TCM medicinal use, the benefits of lily flower tea are numerous. Drinking lily flower tea helps eliminate irritability, calm the mind, benefit wisdom, soothe the nerves, moisten the lungs, resolve phlegm, clear heat, and stop cough. In TCM, lily is often used to treat cough and tuberculosis caused by weak lungs due to body deficiency. In addition, for those suffering from insomnia and excessive dreaming, drinking lily flower tea can improve sleep quality.

Using lily flower together with honeysuckle and rock sugar, simmered slowly over low heat to make lily and honeysuckle tea, can help combat throat discomfort, cough, and excessive internal heat caused by dry weather. Alternatively, prepare 2 grams of lily flower, 3 grams of green tea, and 10 grams of rock sugar, and brew with boiling water. This tea can moisten the lungs, reduce heat, calm the mind, relieve nervous tension, and reduce the risk of cell mutation.
