Hi,

Is anyone familiar with wild cherry bark? Could I use the bark of my

Nanking cherry bush, or is wild cherry bark something else entirely?

Thanks,

Kathe

 

Wild cherry bark is a pretty strong cough supressant. Good for cough syrups , esp at night when sleep is needed. BUT not good to keep taking because you dont want all that mucus and bacteria to keep getting suppressed. I dont know about your bush, it may be something different
