Honey, the best cough medicine!

Aha, I knew it.

I have always believed that cough medicines did little or nothing to calm coughs at night. And now scientists have finally figured it out.

There is absolutely no need for a thick yucky syrup full of sugar and chemicals that can barely be pronounced. Instead, the lowly bee has produced nature's best cough medicine: HONEY!

As a Nana, I have always offered my grand kids my special "honey tea" to soothe their nighttime and daytime coughs. The tea is easy to make, easy to drink, and they like it.

It's so simple: 1/2 cup of very warm water, a big tablespoon of NON-pasteurized all-natural honey (buckwheat is best), and a spoon. Stir to dissolve the honey, and serve in a pretty cup. No child will balk at this flavorful and healthy cough suppressant drink.

Here's a link to the newest scientific findings.

(Remember, pasteurization destroys enzymes in the honey necessary for healthful benefits.)

Three cheers for collective consciousness and folk remedies!!!

Cheers,
