Natural way to cure a chesty cough?!
Question: My 3 year old son is highly allergic to the active ingredient in chesty cough medicines. The GP has given him a ventolin inhaler, but I was wondering if there was a natural remedy for what is now a very chesty cough.

Drink green tea with honey, it helps a lot!!!!!!!!!!!
Drink plenty of warm soups.
Eating oranges actually helps a lot.
Drinking hot chocalate is very enjoyable and helps out a lot with coughs. Your son will like this route the most. =)
If your do all these things above, the cough should go away, with out him needing to take any medicine.
Good luck, hope your son gets better. And you get a better night sleep. =)

chicken soup.. learned about it in my cooking class. i forgot what this word is but chicken soup makes it go away when you have a cold.
Elecampane, Inula helenium, makes the cilia in the lungs beat faster and drives the mucus up out of the lungs. Combine this with thyme and/or garlic, and the mucus will become runnier and easier to move, as well as the oil in them killing the infection. Also, cut all dairy and refined carbohydrates out of his diet. There are also a number of herbs only available to a medical herbalist which you could use, so it really would be a good idea to see one if this doesn't help.
Put a little Vick's vapor rub on this chest and throat when he goes to bed. cover him well. It will help immensely if not dissapate and you won't be giving him any drugs with side effects.
Try "Lyprinol". It is wonder full anti-inflammatory product made out of green mussels and is 60 times more power full than ordinary fish oil. For your baby use only one capsule in the morning and one at evening time. Try it together with "Astra8" which is mainly Astragalus with other 7 herbs in the formula. Wonder full product for chesty cough. About 2ml a day should be enough. All the best to your child.
