Greetings
Chocolates and chips: Sugary and processed foods can potentially lower immunity, increase inflammation, and irritate the throat. Processed snacks like chips are often high in salt, which can be dehydrating and worsen symptoms.
Cold foods/drinks and spicy, fried, or greasy foods: These can irritate the throat and potentially trigger or worsen coughing fits.
