My wife had a bad cough today where she was coughing every minute or so. Not being able to take traditional medicine on account of the breastfeeding we turned to the internets for natural remedies. Lo and behold we Google pointed us to: http://www.pitt.edu/~cjm6/sp99cough.html. This web page may have been designed in 1992 and the remedy taken from a book from 1982 but it works! I've seen it firsthand. It literally cured her coughing within 5 seconds. Since taking the stuff she's only coughed lightly once in the last hour, not every minute like before. Of course, looking at the ingredients, this stuff makes your mouth burn up. Try having a glass of milk or bread handy just in case. But remember, the milk may neutralize the acidic components, so if you can, try and wait.

• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
• 1 tablespoon honey
• 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
• 2 tablespoons water

Mix and take by the teaspoon. Try 3 teaspoons for starters.

This was recommended by a nurse and if you follow the link above it breaks down the active components and lists what does what.

Buckley's and Robitussin beware, this may be your demise.
