There’s nothing more annoying than a cough that just won’t go away. That’s why we’ve found a remedy for you that is simple to make and is sure to rid you of your cough for good!

Coughing is a protective mechanism of your body that cleans up your respiratory tract. It is also a sign of bronchitis and various other conditions. Experts say that acute coughs typically last less than three weeks, while chronic coughs can stay with you for over two months.

Instead of using various cough syrups that you find at the pharmacy, give this natural remedy a try the next time you have a cough, but please check with your doctor first if you have any diet restrictions. The ingredients to make this cough remedy are:

• 2 ripe organic bananas
• 2 tbsp of raw organic honey
• 400ml of water

First, boil some water and mash the bananas with a wooden spoon. Then, add the water to your banana puree, and let it cool for half an hour before mixing in the honey and stirring it thoroughly. Take 100 ml of this remedy each day until your cough goes away, and be sure to heat up the syrup before you take it.

Not only will this remedy help your cough, it can also help you sleep. Bananas are known to be a great sleep remedy, and honey has often been used to help with insomnia. If you take this remedy before bed at night, you’ll sleep like a baby and not find yourself coughing during the night!
