Maggie's Cough Remedy

Over Thanksgiving break I was browsing Pinterest.com and found a homemade remedy for a cough and sore throat.  I was feeling fine at the time but knew the cold, winter months were fast approaching so I mixed some up and started taking a spoonful everyday to possibly prevent from catching a cold or something worse.  So far (knock on wood) I've avoided all of the above.

I actually quadrupled the original recipe found here http://nancyvienneau.com/blog/articles/home-remedy/ and keep it in a glass jar on my counter.    


MAGGIE’S COUGH REMEDY

1 teaspoon Cayenne
1 teaspoon Ginger
4 Tablespoons Cider Vinegar (an organic one, like Bragg’s, is preferred.)
8 Tablespoons Warm Water
4 Tablespoons Honey (use a locally produced raw honey, if possible.)

Dissolve the cayenne & ginger in the vinegar & water then add the honey.  Put it in a glass jar with a lid and shake well before each use.  (The cayenne won't dissolve completely so you'll have some granules.) 

I'm only taking it two or three times a week now, but when my youngest came down with influenza I took it daily.  It seems to be working and I've had a few people ask me for the recipe so I thought I'd share it here as well.

  1. I'm so happy to testify of the good work of Dr Agbomina , I Suffer from Herpes virus since 2010 and i had frequent symptoms in my private area, after some time it will go away after using acyclovir drugs, then come back after some months. it was disheartening since i have been diagnosed, but after finding Dr Agbomina and his reviews i was convinced that he will definitely cure me and so i contacted and he told me how to get his medicine and using it for just 14 days and i will go and check up and first i said how can that be possible but i used his herbal medicine after making purchase and truly i used it and went for the test again, and my result came back negative. so i made it a task to share this good testimony in the internet so that those sick can benefit and get cured.
