DIY Natural Remedies: Curing The Cough

Bella Breakdown

Want to get rid of that ongoing cough? You can easily make this cough syrup yourself. The only things you need are a black radish, which is a cough suppressant, and brown sugar.

The antioxidants in the black radish also act as an expectorant. The brown sugar has a degorging (extracts the liquid) effect on the radish and it also gives it a nice taste.

DIY Cough Syrup Directions

Step 1: To make the cough syrup, thinly slice the black radish.

Step 2: Place one layer of the radish in a glass jar, followed by a sprinkle of brown sugar. Repeat this for several layers.

Step 3: Close the jar when it’s full and refrigerate for 24 hours. Pour the juice into a separate jar, and voila! You have your cough syrup.

Step 4: Take 1 tsp. 2-4 times per day.

Feel better soon!
