I found this home remedy for cough and it worked so well that I wanted to share it with everyone.
The first night I tried it, my son threw up a bunch of phlegm after 5 minutes which helped him get cleared up. About an hour and a half later, I gave him another teaspon before going to bed and within 5 minutes he was asleep (it usually takes him at least 30 minutes to do that)! Although he had the rapid shallow breathing due to his history of asthma, he didn’t cough during this first night and was able to sleep the entire night.
He only needed 2 nebulizer treatments to control his asthma symptoms*.
On the second night his asthma symptoms were gone and really slept well – even eliminated his snoring (a chronic problem due to stuffed sinuses).
By day 3, he had an occassional cough – not as frequent, severe or lingering like his previous experiences (lasts for at least 2 weeks). He was even able to play basketball and spend a day outside. I only had to give it to him in the morning and before going to bed.
I usually give it every 3 hours until cough is gone.
Here’s to green living and good health.
SAY NO TO DRUGS!
*Please do not take this as a cure to his asthma symptoms. I only used this to control his cough. I have been using other approaches to control his asthma and allergies all of which I believe have currently helped him recover quickly. Should his symptoms not improve with his doctor prescribed rescue medications, we are prepared to contact his doctor/take him to the ER as with previous experiences. I am hoping that he will no longer require these rescue asthma medications in the future.

In the city of Boston, a volatile situation is brewing. Research into allergic asthma has shown a strong correlation between allergies to cockroaches and asthmatic response. Dan Remick, the chairman of the pathology department in the School of Medicine, is applying the findings to the search for a cure. Remick’s research is guided by the correlation between allergies to cockroaches and the development of asthma in children in inner cities. One of his new methods is actually thousands of years old: the research has demonstrated that Chinese herbal medicines often work to block the asthmatic response in mice.
