Cough is a common symptom of the respiratory tract. It is a defensive neural reflex in our body. Cough is good for clearing respiratory secretions and harmful factors. The formation and recurrence of cough is often the result of a combination of many complex factors:

1. Inhalation of foreign bodies. They may be pollen, fungi, animal dander, and the like. They could also be some chemicals (such as paint).

2. Infection. In cough patients, there may be bacteria, viruses, mycoplasmas, etc., which can stimulate cough.

3. Food

Coughing due to diet is also very common. Especially infants and young children are easily allergic to food. The most common foods that cause allergies are fish, shrimps, crabs, eggs, milk, etc.

4. Climate change

Cough can be induced when temperature, temperature, or air pressure changes.

5. Mental factors

Some coughs are caused by emotional, nervous or resentful emotions. It is generally thought to be caused by reflexes or hyperventilation through the cerebral cortex and vagus nerve.

In the traditional medicine, garden cress is typically used to treat asthma, cough and colds. People normally mix garden cress seeds with honey as an expectorant. It helps enhance the lung function and respiratory tract.

In addition to that, garden cress is also high in glucosinolate. Glucosinolate can be transformed to I3C. I3C is related to lower risk of many types of cancer. You can also get I3C from supplements such as indole 3 carbinol powder.
