A growing number of doctors are suggesting a return to some traditional 'home remedies' such as lemon and honey (although honey shouldn't be given to those under 1 year). See [url]http://apitherapy.blogspot.com/2008/04/honey-recommended-for-childrens-cough.html[/url] for some coverage of it. It sounds like the manuka honey - eg [url]http://www.newzealandhoneyshop.co.uk/manuka-honey.html[/url] is even better than others, although in the first case I would just use what honey I already had in the cupboard. At least something such as honey and lemon is natural. - marie Mon, 13 Oct 2008 15:39:01 +0100
