This is really an interesting forwarded news

Try this remedy

It works 100% of the time although the scientists at the Canada Research council (who discovered it) aren't sure why.

To stop nighttime coughing in a child (or adult as we found out personally), put Vicks Vaporub generously on the bottom of the feet at bedtime, then cover with socks. Even persistent, heavy, deep coughing will stop in about 5 minutes and stay stopped for many, many hours of relief.

Works 100% of the time and is more effective in children than even very strong prescription cough medicines. In addition it is extremely soothing and comforting and they will sleep soundly.

It was a surprising finding and found to be more effective than prescribed medicines for children at bedtime, in addition to have a soothing and calming effect on sick children who then went on to sleep soundly.

An adult friend tried it on herself when she had a very deep constant and persistent cough a few weeks ago and it worked 100%! She said that it felt like a warm blanket had enveloped her, coughing stopped in a few minutes and believe me, this was a deep, ( incredibly annoying!) every few seconds uncontrollable cough, and she slept cough-free for hours every night that she used it.

So, if you have kids/grandchildren, pass it on. If you end up sick, try yourself and you will be absolutely amazed

Dear Friends:

One can easily get complete relief from chronic ca ugh, by keeping Katukai skin in the mouth. Break a katukai with a hammer, separate its skin from the nut, and keep it in a plastic sip bag. Take a small piece of its skin and keep it in your mouth. Please see how it removes the very sensation of your discomfort due to the persistent caugh. The skin of one katukai is enough to cure your caugh permanently. Take care. All the best. N.Parur
