Acharya Balkrishna Shares Munakka Milk Remedy for Colds

Acharya Balkrishna Shares Munakka Milk Remedy for Colds
Cold every time the season changes? Acharya Balkrishna’s easy munakka milk remedy is worth a try · thestatesman.com

Acharya Balkrishna shared a simple drink for people with a mild cold.

It uses seven or eight munakka, which are dried grapes, and one glass of milk.

The munakka should be washed and have their seeds removed.

They are then boiled in milk until soft.

The mixture should cool until it is warm, not hot.

The advice says to eat the munakka first and drink the milk afterward, usually at night.

The article says this may soothe a dry throat and provide nourishment, but it is a home remedy rather than a replacement for medical care.

People with diabetes or problems digesting milk should be careful.

Anyone with serious symptoms or a cold lasting more than a week should see a doctor.
