Home Remedy for Cough

Spring is a love and hate season for me. I love the warmer and longer day. I love to see buds coming out from the ground and flowers start to bloom. However, this is also the season of allergy. I’m allergic to pollen and my nose will stuffed up and runny at times and my throat will be agitated by clear mucus. When these symptoms hit me, I will have sleepless night due to the cough caused by agitated throat.

    You know what worked for me recently? I didn’t believe my friend when she suggested this as she tried.

    Gargle with vinegar + some water. I did it twice (am & pm) for a day and my cough was gone.
