Guest guest Posted October 7, 2003 Report Share Posted October 7, 2003 Sandra, what's the cough from? When I have had bad coughs I have taken tinctures/extracts of licorice, thyme, horehound and mullein. I have also heard of getting the herbs slippery elm and marshmallow as they are soothing. [mucilaginous = gel like]. When it's so bad it keeps me and everyone else awake at nite, it's codeine cough syrup. Or Robitussin. It's not worth breaking a rib over, just to stop it with herbs.

Guest guest Posted October 7, 2003 Report Share Posted October 7, 2003 Ricola cough drops Nettle Tea with honey and orange slices. Check out allergies...I am allergic to dust and heat from furnaces. If in a public place in the winter and they turn on the heat it can make me start to cough. I eat grapefruit and take (1000 mg powder Emergen-C) in fresh juice throughout the days. I try my best to eat several fresh fruits and veggies a day. Good luck. I have been researching vitamins and herbs and health issues since 1964 and the key is know your own body and keep informed. Watch out for added ingredients or the so called Other Ingredients listed on vitamin bottles. I used to smoke and when I quit years ago, I was sick from the toxins leaving my body. I was always sick with Bronchitis and always getting colds and the flu. The first year after I quit my health improved dramatically and I began a regime of taking better care of myself and my family. My oldest daughter was 17 years old before she ever had a cavity and that happened because she started drinking coke and eating sweets. My kids always ate tons of cheddar cheese and we never had soft drinks in the house. I still had seasonal allegeries and got Bronchitis until I started taking Claritin or Allegra in the spring. Thanks for listening.

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2003 Report Share Posted October 9, 2003 Whiskey, lemon and honey is the best thing I have ever found. It is very soothing to the throat which is usually why we cough in the first place.

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2003 Report Share Posted October 9, 2003 This recipe never changes. My mother was giving me this over 50 years ago. I use to give it to my kids. Guess I forget about it for myself, but I can't stand the smell of whiskey. Wonder if I could use Southern Confort for the whiskey. LOL Nancy Whiskey, lemon and honey is the best thing I have ever found. scents1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 9, 2003 Report Share Posted October 9, 2003 yep, you can use southern comfort, or rum whatever booze. My Grandfather used to keep Gin in his office desk when the gals who worked for him got cramps. Worked every time. Nothing but Gin. Cause back then, it was really made with juniper berries.

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2003 Report Share Posted October 9, 2003 Then this sounds good to me. Years ago, I had a Dr tell me to keep Brandy in the house. I think I would get blackberry. He told me to have a shot or two for cramps. 2 or 3 shots worked every time. Thanks now to remember this if I get a cough. Always keep Southern Confort in the house, found out many years ago, while helping a friend through cancer for 4 years. I had many bad days, so about once or twice a month when it got real bad I would put it on ice. Later my Uncle lived with us until he passed on from cancer, he as much as I loved him could drive me crazy. We were searching the kitchen one morning for my Southern Confort. As I haven't been a big drinker, he asked me what we were searching for. Was shocked when I told him I needed a drink. LOL Found out my sweet son had found it first. But I did have some good cognac, it worked. I had to calm down before my father got here, I use to do his bills. He came here while my Uncle was so sick. I didn't know about EO's in those days. Nancy yep, you can use southern comfort, or rum whatever booze. My Grandfather used to keep Gin in his office desk when the gals who worked for him got cramps. Worked every time. Nothing but Gin.

Guest guest Posted October 9, 2003 Report Share Posted October 9, 2003 it is from allergies but I haven`t had it this bad for a while, I live a hour or so from a health food store but when I get to town I`m going to stock up on some tinctures I make my own echinachia but right now I`m even out of it. This is very foolish of me to be down like this but I don`t get sick often so I guess I just haven`t worried about it, but was taught a good lesson, Thanks for the help Sandra RE: cough Sandra, what's the cough from?

Guest guest Posted April 17, 2006 Report Share Posted April 17, 2006 Cough Syrup: Mix equal parts: lemon juice, radish juice, & honey. Let stand 30 minutes and take as needed. There are also a number of good herbal remedies that can combat allergies and asthma. A website at dragonherbs.com has a comprehensive programme of Chinese herbs beneficial for fighting these conditions.Ralph Simoneau <rsimoneau35 wrote: What is good for a cough. I started out with a cold and led to a cough and now i can't get rid of this cough. Having to clear my throat often and then will start up coughing, i can go hours with out coughing also but then i can go on coughing for a while also. I am 37 years old, NON Smoker and don't do none of that snuff either but I do have asthma and allergies. It has been 3 week with the cough now. If you look at it, it has been 2 week since i been over the cold and stuck with the cough. Any suggestions. Thanks Messenger with Voice.

Guest guest Posted April 17, 2006 Report Share Posted April 17, 2006 Hi.. When you say radish juice, is it the daikon radish you are talking about, or it does not make any difference? Thanks Diane M Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted April 18, 2006 Report Share Posted April 18, 2006 Hmmm----I always used just regular black or red radishes. The black (winter radish) varieties are said to have more health benefits, but I don't really think it makes a difference. Try to get organic radishes, though, as they have more juice and are usually fresher.Teddyberen wrote: Hi..

Guest guest Posted July 3, 2006 Report Share Posted July 3, 2006 I like TriLight Liquid Herbs for Children. There are a few cough formulas to choose from - we used Lungs Plus when our child was 1 or 2 with good results at bedtime.

Guest guest Posted September 4, 2008 Report Share Posted September 4, 2008 Jennifer, I had the same problem and most of it was caused by excess mucus from the nasal cavity and then a very thin post nasal drip that caused the cough. I found that using an all natural oxygen based nasal spray daily cured all of the problems for me with no side effects. It was a relief to finally lay down for sleep and not be coughing the whole time.

Guest guest Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 Hi Edwin. If the cough is not from metastasis to the lungs as mention, and is just a cough, try giving your wife a tea made with the follow. 1- Teaspoon Slippery elm powder. 1- Teaspoon fresh ginger grated. 1- Teaspoon natural honey if you have. 1-Drop peppermint oil, add boiling water stir and have her drinked it, she can have this tea 3 times daily. Also massage her upper back, throat and chest and bottom of feet with a mixture of 10 mils olive oil and 5 drops peppermint oil, shake the bottle 20 times before massaging her. Hope this help you both Edwin.
