Treating Dry Cough naturally through homemade remedies
Take 10 black pepper corns (not grounded or powdered pepper) and boil them in a glass of water. Boil the water till it reduces to half a glass. Filter the pepper corns and allow the mixture to get lukewarm. Mix a spoon of honey and take small sips. It will decrease symptoms within a few hours and then repeat. After 2 days of regular use the cough should subside. Other useful natural remedies in tea preparations include turmeric, honey, ginger, plantain leaf, sage and lobelia.
There are different ways of using honey besides the one mentioned in
combination with turmeric. A dry cough responds to a mixture of honey with
juice from grapes. A glass of hot nut milk with some honey added just before
going to bed is effective at relieving night time cough. Mix in honey and lemon
juice to a glass of warm water and drink this three times per day for relief
from cough.
Heat a glass of nut milk, mix in half a teaspoon of turmeric powder and
drink warm to find relief from cough. A turmeric gargle also gives good
results. To one cup of hot water, add in half a teaspoon of turmeric powder and
half a teaspoon table salt. Use this liquid as a throat gargle and you are sure
to experience relief from cough.
