Natural Cough Remedies

The video shows you how to extract ginger juice to give an effective natural cough medicine - no words, just music and a practical demonstration.

Many natural cough medicines use garlic - it's effective, but the downside is that it smells - this next video gives a tip for removing 'the smelly bit' of the garlic.

Now the tip does work for cooking - I've tried it and the smell doesn't hang around - the taste is there - but I don't know if it takes the medicinal properties away at the same time.

I've researched this extensively, but can't find any authority that says the medicinal property remains.

So the traditional garlic and honey cure for coughs - try it with and without the 'germ' I think he's literally translating 'shoot' as in germination :-)

I don't have a cough at the moment, but the next time I get one, I'm going to try the without 'germ' version first.

For an explanation of gardening terms that you might not understand, please check out the Growers Dictionary section.

I found that I was either skimping on explanations or giving too much information on the individual pages so I have posted all relevant terms in one section - if there's anything you need to know, please drop me an email.
