Here is a great recipe for a natural and effective cough syrup. This is non-toxic and excellent for that disturbing cough that keeps your kids up at night. Obviously, do not use this on children under the age of 1 where honey is not indicated.
Ingredients
- 1 large brown onion, peeled and thinly sliced.
- Honey, preferably Manuka honey (this is made from tea-tree flowers)
- 1 glass jar slightly larger than the onion with a lid.
Instructions
- Place the sliced and peeled onion into the glass jar, tightly packed.
- Cover with honey and close lid.
- Let sit overnight. The onions will become dry as the honey extracts the onion juices out.
- Remove the onion left-overs.
- Keep refrigerated. Take as needed for cough.
Typical dose is 1 tablespoon for children under 6 and 2 tablespoons for 6 years and older.
I'm all for natural remedies,... but wouldn't this taste awful?

CAIRO — Several thousand women demanding the end of military rule marched through downtown Cairo on Tuesday evening in an extraordinary expression of anger over images of soldiers beating, stripping and kicking female demonstrators in Tahrir Square.

Amazing! Wouldn't it be so satisfying to know that you have made your own medicine? :) That would definitely make my day. But without the other chemicals that the companies put in their medicine, this wouldn't be the best tasting one.
