Avoid mucus forming foods such as fried foods, meat and dairy products. Foods that help loosen mucus include spicy foods, hot chili peppers and horse radish are effective at loosening mucus. Drink plenty of warm liquids such as herbal teas to moisten the airways and break up mucus. Using a vaporiser or humidifier at night will help thin mucus (I use a vaporiser, both are good).
Usually, cells will take between 5 and 6 hours to complete S phase. G2 is shorter, lasting only 3 to 4 hours in most cells. In sum, then, interphase generally takes between 18 and 20 hours. Mitosis, during which the cell makes preparations for and completes cell division only takes about 2 hours.2 is shorter, lasting only 3 to 4 hours in most cells.

Interphase. The interphase portion of the cell cycle is relatively long compared to mitosis. Interphase consists of three stages: first gap (G1), synthesis (S) and second gap (G2). The cell replicates DNA only in the S phase. Before the cell can transition from G1 to S, it must clear the G1 checkpoint.
