Honey Tea
Honey is known for the various benefits it gives to the body. One of those benefits is its treatment of cough. It is naturally antibacterial, and it contains sugar concentration and hydrogen peroxide which are antibacterial properties. To treat a cough with honey, mix two teaspoons of honey with hot water and lemon or any herbal tea. You can take this mixture as often as you need or want it. A homemade remedy of honey is safer than giving over-the-counter common cough and cold medications to children under six years of age. Now, although honey is an effective night treatment for children battling with cough, it should not be given to children under one year of age. [1]
