Eggs in boiling water can replenish the body’s energy and nutrients, but can not cure cough. 1. Eggs are rich in protein and vitamins, which can replenish the body’s energy and nutrients, and enhance the body’s immune system, but boiled eggs are not medicines, and do not have the efficacy of treating coughs, nor can they alleviate the symptoms of coughing. 2. Raw eggs may contain bacteria and need to be boiled or scrambled before consumption. Boiling water does not kill all the bacteria in eggs. Therefore, taking boiled eggs may lead to gastroenteritis and other diseases, and it is not recommended to use boiled eggs to treat cough. In conclusion, it is advisable to seek medical attention for cough symptoms and treat the cause under the guidance of a specialist.
