1. LIME JUICE FOR COUGH RELIFE Investigating Effectiveness in Two individuals

2. : Lime juice, is known for its high vitamin C content, is frequently used as a home remedy for cough relief. This experiment investigates the effect of lime juice symptoms in two individuals to determine its effectiveness and advisability INTODCTION

3. BACKGROUND OF THE STUDY Coughing, a common symptom of respiratory infections and irritations, often leads individuals to seek out home remedies. Lime juice is popular due to its vitamin C content and potential soothing properties. Despite its widespread use, scientific evidence supporting the effectiveness of lime in treating coughs is limited.

4. STATEMENT OF THE PROBLEM 1. Does consuming lime juice provide relief from cough symptoms in individuals with mild respiratory infections or irritations? 2. What are the short-term effects of lime consumption on cough severity and frequency in otherwise healthy individuals experiencing common cold symptoms?

5. HYPOTHESIS Individual 1: Consuming juice from seven limes daily, with half a teaspoon of sugar and two tablespoons of water, will result in noticeable cough relief within 5 days. -Individual 2: Consuming juice from three limes daily, with one teaspoon of sugar and one tablespoon of water, will experience relief by the same day Individual 1 achieves relief.

6. SCOPE AND LIMITATION This study focuses on the short-term effects of consuming lime juice on cough symptoms in otherwise healthy individuals. It does not address chronic or severe cough conditions or explore the effects of lime on other respiratory illnesses.

7. RRL (REVIEW OF RELATED LITERATURE) Lime is rich in vitamin C and antioxidants, which help boost immunity and are essential for DNA repair and serotonin production. A freshly squeezed lime with warm water or tea can help soothe a sore throat and cough. Consuming oranges, which are also high in vitamin C, during the flu can help speed recovery .

8. MATERIALS USED FRESH LIME TABLE SPOON KNIFE GLASS TEASPOON CALENDAR

9. PROCEDURE Select and thoroughly wash fresh limes. Cut the limes with a knife. Measure water using a tablespoon/teaspoon and pour it into a glass. Squeeze the limes into the glass. Add sugar by measuring it with a teaspoon. Record the start date on the calendar and continue until the cough is relieved.

10. RESULTS

11. -Day 1: Initial cough frequency and severity recorded. -Day 2-5: Daily consumption of juice from seven limes, with half a teaspoon of sugar and two tablespoons of water. -Day 5: Noticeable reduction in cough frequency and severity observed. Day 1: Initial cough frequency and severity recorded. -Day 2-5: Daily consumption of juice from three limes, with one teaspoon of sugar and one tablespoon of water. -Day 5: Comparable reduction in cough frequency and severity to Individual 1 observed. 2 ND INDIVIDUAL 1 ST INDIVIDUAL

12. Both individuals experienced a reduction in cough symptoms over the 5-day period. Individual 1, consuming a higher quantity of lime juice, showed a similar timeline for relief as Individual 2, who consumed a smaller amount. This suggests that a lower dose of lime juice might be nearly as effective as a higher dose for short-term cough relief. DISSCUSION

13. The findings suggest that lime juice can effectively reduce cough severity and frequency within 5 days. Both dosages were effective, indicating that even smaller quantities of lime juice may be beneficial for cough relief. FINDINGS

14. Data analysis showed a consistent reduction in cough symptoms for both individuals, supporting the hypothesis that lime juice aids in cough relief. The comparable results between different dosages suggest that the effectiveness of lime juice might not be dose-dependent within the tested range. ANALYSIS OF DATA

15. CONCLUSION Lime juice appears to be an effective remedy for mild respiratory coughs in otherwise healthy individuals. Future studies could explore varying dosages over longer periods and include a larger sample size to validate these findings and determine optimal dosage levels for cough relief

16. This concludes the investigation into the effectiveness of lime juice for cough relief in two individuals

17. RECOMENDATION .ADD MORE LIME for better results
