You might think that i'm daft but a sure fire way to nip a cough or a cold in the bud !.!.!.!.!.!.!.!. is to slice a lime or lemon into quarters, squeeze the juice into a cup of warm water and add organic honey to taste (honey has antiobiotic properties) and sip on that!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!.!. then, suck on another 1/4 of a lime or lemon rinsing your mouth out thoroughly afterwards to protect your teeth from the acid ?

Eucalyptus oil has long been respected for its ability to lower temperatures and help the respiratory tract by loosening and removing mucus during attacks of bronchitis, coughs, flu, sinusitis and throat infections!.
