Old remedies are still the best

[karohemd]

In my case, Heumann's Bronchialtee (herbal tea in micronodule powder form with loads of aromatic oils and things) for a really dry, chesty cough. One mug of it and breathing is a lot easier. I always get a jar when I'm home, just in case. I need to find out if they make pastilles or similar which would be more user-friendly but obviously would lack the additional healing property of heat.
When I was little I was really weak and prone to colds and things so I was basically on the stuff constantly. Now I only drink it when I need it. It tastes nice as well.
