A cough can be very uncomfortable and sometimes even debilitating, especially when it keeps you up at night. You can prepare this tried-and-true folk remedy that provides relief and ensures a restful night’s sleep.
To make this drink, you’ll need a few ingredients that you may already have at home.
A cough is the body’s reaction to irritation of the mucous membrane, causing muscle spasms and contractions that result in a characteristic sound.
It’s most often caused by a cold but can also be due to smoking, allergies, or exposure to polluted air. However, it can also be a symptom of more serious diseases. If a cough persists for more than 7 days, it’s advisable to consult a doctor.
Nevertheless, there’s no harm in trying this natural remedy when you experience the first symptoms.
Here’s what you’ll need:
1 teaspoon of butter
1 cup (8 fluid ounces) of milk
1 tablespoon of dried sage
3 bay leaves
1 teaspoon of honey
1/2 teaspoon of turmeric
