In folklore, goose fat has been used for colds and coughs, especially for children. Heated goose fat was used to anoint the chest during a cold or cough and was used to loosen tough mucus. Historically, it has been used for a very long time.
Goose fat contains a large amount (20%) of palmitic acid, thanks to which it has beneficial properties. There is scientific evidence of the anti-inflammatory effect of palmitic acid, so it can relieve the symptoms of a cold or a cough. Its type of saturated fatty acids supports the immune system.
