Can honey cure my child’s cough?

USDA/Scott Bauer

Your child is racked by cough through night and day and the cough syrup seems to have no effect. Incidentally in most of the cases you have to fight tooth and nail to ram the cough syrup down their throats! It is frustrating to know that the medicines only make your child drowsier but are ineffective in curbing the cough. The FDA recently warned against using over the counter cough and cold medicines for children under 6 years old. Apparently they are not that effective while also carry negative side effects.

So is there an alternative remedy to treat your child’s cough?

Recent findings by the honey industry state that honey is a much more effective remedy to fight cough. What’s more, your child will readily gulp it down instead of the dreaded cough syrup. A little honey taken at bedtime can treat cough effectively while also soothing a sore throat.

Surveys indicate that honey also aids in fighting germ casing diseases due to its anti- oxidant properties. The results are better if the honey is darker. Children from two to five years old should be given half teaspoon honey, six to eleven year old a full teaspoon while two teaspoons of honey should be given to children over eleven years.

So the next time your child is racked by cough, try Mother Nature’s remedy – honey.

Warning – Honey should not be given to children below one year of age. The botumolism spores in honey can be absorbed by them which can result in a severe life threatening condition.

      I would asewnr that with the question,How is your health from the point of the vaccine day you are injected/infected? How’s your memory when you are vaccinated? How does your general health feel after the vaccine, do you ingest on purpose fluoride through water/brushing your teeth.My experience with all of the above is negative, I don’t take vaccines/flu jabs etc I use non fluoride toothpaste and take supplements, I don’t use refined sugar/salt products.Use common sense people.
