Step 3
Prepare black radish juice. It is a great cough suppressant. Cut off the top of the radish, remove the core with a knife, put a spoonful of sugar or a spoonful of honey in the hollow root vegetable. Now cover it with the "lid" cut off earlier and place the bottom part in a glass of water (this is how the onion is put in water to expel the feather). After a few hours, a sweet syrup forms in the heart of the radish, which is the ideal cough remedy.

Use inhalation. Inhalation with essential oils of eucalyptus and tea tree relieves cough attacks well. Drop two to three drops into the inhaler and breathe in the aromatic steam for 3-5 minutes.
If you do not have an inhaler, simply heat a pot of water on the stove, add oil to it and breathe over the steam for 5 minutes. After inhalation, you need to go to bed, wrapping a warm scarf around your throat.
