HONEY CALMS CHILDREN'S COUGH
A teaspoon of honey before bed seems to calm children?€™s coughs and help them sleep better, according to a new study that appears in December?€™s Archives of Pediatrics and Adolescent Medicine. The folk remedy did better than cough medicine or no treatment in a three-way comparison.
Note: Honey should not be given to children under age one because of a rare but serious risk of botulism.
There are also many other natural and effective ways to help someone with a cough- my treatments, herbal remedies and homeopathic remedies, to name a few. Decreasing the coughing and increasing the sleep helps everyone in the family!
