Any natural and easy cough remedys?

The best remedy for me is hot water gargling. I usually put in a pinch of salt to make it more effective. The other solution that we use here in India is something known as Tulasi leaves. Tulasi is a plant known for it's medicinal values in Indian Ayurveda style of medication. If you take a few leaves of it and grind it and either drink it with water or milk, it is very effective.

Honey when taken with black pepper will loosen the mucous and make you spit the mucous Drinking red raspberry,honey suckle or ice tea with honey is helpful in treating cough within 2-3 days. Before going to bed just take a spoonful of honey with few drops of Vodka or Brandy in it.

Take one tablespoon of honey, mixed with a little ground cinnamon, and some lemon juice in freshly boiled water. When it has cooled a little, this soothes a sore throat, eases a bad cough and helps to clear the sinuses. Honey has natural antiseptic and soothing properties.

My mom always used to give us tea with a bit of lemon and honey for coughs and sore throats. My grandma also said tea with ginger would help. I've read online previously for cough remedies and alot of the natural ones contain onion garlic or ginger...with honey.

Honey is well accepted way of providing cough relief. One way to us it effectively to combine it with the curative properties of the onion. To get rid of an irritating cough, pour 2 teaspoons of honey on a freshly cut slice of onion. Cover it and let it lie for 4 - 5 hours. Then take one teaspoon of the honey after removing the onion piece. You will find immediate relief. Repeat the second teaspoon after 3-4 hours. Another remedy effective in cough with a cold as follows. Take one onion, 5 basil leaves, 2 cloves and 5 peppercorns in 200ml of water. Boil them together till the water reduces by half. Sip this hot concoction, thrice daily to find substantial relief from cough and cold. A persistent allergic cough is very irritating. It does not seem to go away easily and keeps you irritated all day long. If you can't find a cause, try this cure. Take a guava (fruit) and bake it in an oven. Eat this baked guava once a day for 3-4 days and you will find substantial relief. Another quick fix for minor coughs is turmeric. Take half a glass of hot water and add a pinch of salt to it. Stir. Then add a half teaspoon of turmeric powder to it. Drink this mixture once daily for 3 days to find relief. This is also an effective pre emptive way to protect the throat from persistent infections. The above remedies are useful in curing minor throat problems. They can also be taken as an accompaniment to antibiotics for relief from cough and can replace commercial cough mixtures. However in cases of severe problems, try and take the advice of a trained doctor.

Have you tried steaming yourself? Once when I had a really bad cold and congestion in the chest, I made up a really hot pot of water and then draped a towel over top and breathed deeply. Be sure the pot is not on the stove when you do that. That might help lubricate your throat. Also, when you sneeze, don't keep your mouth closed. I know that sounds weird. But just try it out. When I was sick last year, I made my throat very sore, by keeping my mouth closed while sneezing and trying to suppress the sneeze. Simply put the tissue up to your mouth and nose and sneeze into that while your mouth is open. Don't ask me why it works, but it does. My throat felt better almost right away. Also, if you have trouble breathing, use a drop of hot sauce in water. That will keep your sinuses clear and break up congestion in your chest. It might also help with the coughing. P.S. Have you tried warm soup? Get better soon!

At the first sign of a sore throat, we take a teaspoon of natural honey. We also gargle with warm water and sea salt. Gargling can be done several times a day and eating honey can be done twice or 3 times a day. If you have a severe cough, all dairy products should be cut out. Dairy promotes mucous build up and that is what your cough is trying to rid your body of. Inhaling the steamed vapors of the essential oils bergamot, camphor, eucalyptus, lavender, pine, and sandalwood can help to relieve bronchitis symptoms.Eat hot, spicy organic foods, such as chili peppers, garlic, ginger and onions, in order to open the air passages and encourage the elimination of mucus. Spices such as mustard and horseradish can also be helpful for this purpose. If you have the ingredients for to make home made chicken, turkey or barley soup, make a pot. Warm soups, using natural ingredients (organic) will also help to thin out the mucous. You should drink plenty of pure, filtered water (bottle water is better than tap, if you don't have a filtration system) and when sick, you should drink approx 8oz every 2 hours and eliminate all dairy, and drinks containing caffine and artifical sweetners. I hope some of these tips will help...feel better soon!
