This is a very good remedy for the dry sort of cough -
Badam (almonds) 100 gms
Sugar Candy - 50 gms (if you can get the palm candy it is even better)
Pepper - 20 gms
Haldi Powder (turmeric) 10 gms
Powder all the ingredients together and store. Have 1 tsp twice a day.
Another good daily remedy for cough esp for kids is this one
Heat a glass of milk with a tbsp of Turmeric (haldi). Add sugar to taste and have at bedtime.
Every time one of us fell ill or was down with some minor ailment, amma would give us one of these kashayas and within no time we would be up and running. So i thought why not record these for our future reference and for all of you. Of course these are only home remedies and I suggest that a doctor be visited whenever the mother feels the need. Of all the things i have come to rely on the mothers instinct as regards to the baby's / kids health as the best. Have a healthy family.
