Hello WILL2.

The answer is NO. and NO again.

Once I learned that MUCUS is produced ALL the time AND all throughout the body, I had to come up with a better plan. I chose WATER, Drink IT all Day long. Plus tea. (Besides, H2O (water) has Oxygen in it too 🤔)

Read this article for more tips and just stay HYDRATED:

The video explains how Mucus is removed from the lungs. It has to be moist in order to do that. Even the medicines just dry you up!

Everybody dose. It is perfectly normal. You see at night while you're lying and sleeping your lungs clear out the days gunk that got past the nose. Most of it goes down your throat and gets swallowed. Especially people that don't have as much as we do. But we have excess and our lungs have a harder time clearing. So every morning you will be coughing up some excess phlegm to help clear your airways.

Yes very bad. I use almost a roll of toilet paper every am and fill a bag with the paper. It's like that every morning. Almost and hr. My comes didn't work. It's been like this for two yrs. I'm at stage four and getting more tired. I'm 85 now and my goal is to be here for Thanksgiving. My husband passes a year and half ago. Lost my brother two weeks before. Now I'm the only one left in my generation. I still have god and my angels. Best to you all. Lanie
