This time of year sees the dreaded runny snotty noses and those horrid coughs that always worsen at bedtime. If like me you find cough medicine a waste of time and want to try some home made remedies here are a few that my mums recommend:
Home made cough remedies
- Hot water and lemon juice
- Hot water and lemon or put a throat lozenge in and let it dissolve
- Vicks on soles of your feet
- Honey and lemonade warmed up
- For sore throats gargle with warm salt water eeuugghhhh yucky but supposed to help and coughs lemon and honey also
- Cut an onion and cover with sugar leave by a window for a couple of hours then there should be the juices on the plate tip on to a spoon and take it… should stop you coughing
- Gargle with warm water with a teaspoon of cayenne pepper in. Works.
