Cough Remedies
(piefed.ca)
Lemon tea and honey?
A bit of warm honey and lemon tea.
Whiskey?
Cough medicine just fucks you up enough that you don't have a cough reflex.
Whether that DXM or alcohol, it doesn't really matter.
So there might be Canadian cough medicine, but I know there's Canadian whiskey
I don't drink alcohol.
Lots of water instead.
Not Canadian but I always liked the onions and honey remedy. Soak chopped raw onions in honey overnight at room temperature. Eat onions.
What effect does this have? For how long?
It’ll stop the spread of the cold virus dead in its tracks as nobody will want to be within 100 m of you for the next few days
Very soothing effect IME, but not long lasting. It's been a while since I had a cough bad enough to bother, but I think a medium sized onion lasted less than a day. Not a cure. But it's nice while it lasts.
Robitussin is usually my go to.
Edit: I just realized what community this was in. 🤦♂️
Aloe plant, peel the green outer layer and put jelly in a blender Add lemon Add rum
Keep in fridge and about 3-4 T per day.
Doesn't have to be kept in the fridge, and surely you can do shots before bed ...
Type of cough?
