Dr. Eric Berg explains that there are two types of coughs: coughs with phlegm (wet cough) and coughs without phlegm (dry cough). Dry coughs are the most bothersome, especially at night when it's hard to sleep. Most cough medicines only suppress the cough response, but coughing itself is a defense mechanism of the body, designed to clear viruses, irritants, or foreign objects.

Common causes of dry cough
- Postnasal drip : This can be caused by sinus infections, allergies, viruses, and fungi.
- Drug side effects : Some medications can cause a dry or irritated throat.
- Acid reflux ( GERD ) : Stomach acid rises up the esophagus into the throat, causing coughing.
- Asthma : Related to vitamin D deficiency, and is more likely to occur in winter .
- Croup (barking cough) : Common in children, also related to vitamin D.
- Dry air : Humidity below 30% → dry throat → worsened cough
- Laryngospasm : associated with hypocalcemia, caused by nerve signal dysregulation leading to a cough reflex .
- Vitamin D3 deficiency : leads to insufficient blood calcium → affects laryngeal nerves → cough.
- Environmental irritants : perfumes, smoke, chemicals released from new furniture, mold, etc.
- Neurotic tic disorders (such as Tourette syndrome) : may also cause persistent cough.
The relationship between vitamin D3 and cough
- Vitamin D3 helps with lung development, regulates immunity, and increases blood calcium levels.
- It is recommended to supplement with at least 20,000 IU daily , along with magnesium and vitamin K2.
- Magnesium helps vitamin D function and also regulates calcium distribution.

In conclusion: Stop suppressing your cough; addressing the root cause is the only way to truly stop it.
A persistent cough doesn't necessarily mean you have a cold; it could be due to stomach acid, shortness of breath, environmental factors, or nutritional deficiencies. Starting today, a cup of NAC nebulizer solution, a vitamin D3 tablet , and a humidifier will help protect your throat!
Don't be misled by the idea that "coughing equals taking medicine." True health comes from knowing how to detox, supplement calcium, and fight inflammation!
