FAQ 💡❓

What is eggnog (șodou) and how does it help with a sore throat?

➡️ It’s a traditional remedy made from hot milk, egg yolk, and sugar, used to soothe throat irritation and support mucosal healing, due to its high vitamin A content.

Why is sugar used instead of honey?

➡️ Because the milk is consumed hot, honey would lose its beneficial properties at high temperatures and act merely as a sweetener. Sugar is heat-stable and doesn’t degrade in hot liquids.

Is it better to drink it in the morning or evening?

➡️ Evening is best, before bedtime, as it calms the throat and promotes restful sleep.

Can I add the egg white too?

➡️ No. Only the yolk is used, as it has the emollient and nutritive role. Raw egg white is hard to digest and has no therapeutic effect in this context.

Is this remedy suitable for children?

➡️ Yes, for children old enough to safely consume raw egg, and only with a pediatrician’s approval.

Does it help with pain when swallowing?

➡️ Yes. The creamy texture and fats in the yolk form a protective layer, reducing discomfort when swallowing.

How long can I take this remedy?

➡️ It can be used for 2–3 evenings in a row, but if symptoms persist or worsen, medical advice is necessary.

Can I use this during a cold with fever?

➡️ Only if there’s no suspected bacterial infection and the fever is mild. Medical consultation is strongly recommended in such cases.

Is it contraindicated for people with diabetes?

➡️ Yes, due to the sugar content. Diabetics should avoid this remedy or consult a doctor before modifying it.

Is it safe for people with high cholesterol?

➡️ Not recommended regularly, as egg yolk is high in cholesterol.

Are there any side effects if consumed too often?

➡️ Yes – nausea, bloating, or digestive discomfort may occur in sensitive individuals or with excessive use.

Should the milk be very hot?

➡️ Yes, but not boiling – just hot enough to lightly cook the yolk, creating a thick texture without fully scrambling it.

Should I beat the egg yolk before pouring in the milk?

➡️ Yes. Mixing the yolk with sugar first helps homogenize the texture and prevents clumps when hot milk is added.

Can I use this remedy for a dry cough?

➡️ Yes, especially for dry, irritating coughs – it soothes the throat and reduces scratchiness.

Is this suitable for elderly people?

➡️ Yes, as long as there are no contraindications like diabetes or high cholesterol, it's a nourishing and gentle remedy for sore throat relief.
