RE: How I Make My Own Natural, Home-Made COUGH SYRUP.
Thanks for sharing this with us. Please let us know how the natural medicine works.
I recently read that cough syrup does not necessarily work, it's merely a money making thing but I'm talking about the store bought ones here.
I am having a cough right now, for a week or so, after having had a cold ( a nose full of snot ) before.
I usually use herbs ( like fresh ginger, cinnamon, cardomom ), lemonjuice and honey and I also tried salt and hot water to rinse my throat with. It seems to have little effect on my throat though. Luckily, it's not hurting, just ticklish.
I don't have any essential oils at home but if this works, I'm very much interested, also because there's so much more you can do with those oils.
Um abraço desde Portugal,
Vincent
I don't really know if cough syrups really work and that is what my doctor said to me to, that they are really just useless so I stopped buying them.
When I turned to natural medicine like the essential oils, I don't imagine ever not having them, because they trully are amazing in every way, but the trick is to be really consistent with them and when we are not, we think they don't work. And another very if not the most important thing you really have to research and choose the right kind of oils that you can trust, which are tested for their purity, and potency and that they are free from fillers or artificial ingredients and free of harmful contaminants. 85% of essential oils on the market right now are not pure and most of all not safe to use and don't have any health benefits because they are not harvested, sourced and distilled and gone through vigourous testing in the proper way in order to get the natural chemistry of the oils and its amazing benefits and that is why I use doTERRA's oils which really have worked for me.
The syrup I made works pretty good, the only problem was that (my other son and I got sick too afterward) and we were not very consistent drinking this syrop at least 3 -4 times a day, but when I drank it, it really calmed down my cough and my throat.
You are absolutely right, you can do so much with these oils and I use them for cleaning, for my skin, my hair, cooking, cleaning the air in my home, for sleep, for energy for headaches and pains and anything you can think of.
The reason I love the oils is because they are 50-70 times more concentrated then herb or fruit/plant itself. which loose up to 90% of their healing nutrients and oxygen molecules and essential oils don't
Please let me know @vincentnijman if you have any more questions.
