Cough Tea for asthma
by Alicja on Feb 25, 2013

I have asthma and often get miserable when having a cold. Last time I ended with real trouble breathing at night, and since I just have gotten my order with the Tincture Mix Kit I thought I'd give it a try. All next day I kept drinking ImLife Tincture prepared as tea, but in the evening I still could feel my congestion was getting worse and worse. I must say that I was very skeptical that the Cough Tea with its simple ingredients would bring any significant results... However, at bedtime I felt that another asthma attack was approaching and in act of desperation I made myself a cup of strong Cough Tea. Then... I forgot about my troubled breathing till I realized it was not that bad anymore! The result was stunning! So I promised myself to keep drinking the Cough Tea and ImLife Tea daily, hoping they will help my breathing in general.
I also read somewhere here about adding Mullein Leaf to the Cough Tea. I read about the herb and it sound like a good idea. Any reason not to combine the two?

Cough Syrup
by Elizabeth Entenmann on Feb 4, 2013

I used your Cough Tea and I made a tincture out of it, using the steps as a normal alcohol tincture. Once that was poured off, and mixed that with some local raw honey. It's been an excellent cough suppresent for my husband and I. Two teaspoons will do.

Great for the flu
by Bonnie on Dec 30, 2012

I used this to help get over the cough from pneumonia and the flu. It really works especially with 2 T. of raw organic honey in the mix. I have been handing it out to all my family as they are sick with lung ailments and it really works wonders. HIGHLY RECOMMEND! Keep it on hand!

This tea is fantastic!
by Heather on Dec 26, 2012

My family has been struggling with head colds and congestion, as well as hacking coughs for over a week. I have had a tough time sleeping because of this cold, and now, after sipping two cups of this tea, find that my cough is productive, I dont have that tickle in the back of my throat, and my whole chest feels more relaxed. thank you SO SO much for making this available---I am recommending you on my blog, The Welcoming House, and my FB page of the same name! Blessings to you and yours!

Helped during a flu bout
by Sharon on Dec 12, 2012

Our order of herbs came just in time for a bout with the flu. I mixed up a pitcher and had our kids drink it and they were able to sleep through the night with only a few episodes of coughing.
One plus with herbs is you can give more when needed usually while with over the counter meds or prescriptions you have to wait hours for the next dose while your child suffers. Thank yu for making mixtures that work and even taste good!

so thankful for this product!

With winter fast approaching, I decided to use some of my cough tea to make a tincture. I had my first opportunity to try it out this past weekend. My 6 year old woke us up at 1 am coughing so hard that he was gagging; it was one of those raspy "frog" coughs. I gave him some of the tincture and steamed him in the bathroom. He went back to bed and did not cough for the rest of the night. He slept peacefully until the next morning! I've given him some before bedtime until his cold clears up, and the tincture has kept the coughing to a minimum. Thank you for a wonderful product that I can give my child, knowing that it isn't full of chemicals or other drugs that may be harmful.
As a side note, I also gave some to my dad who is a smoker. His cough is horrible. While the tincture won't cure his cough entirely (only quitting smoking will do that!!), the tincture has lessened the severity of his chronic cough.

Best Tea for Cough
by Ratzlaffs on Jun 7, 2012

My hubby has had this tickle in his throat and a dry cough for a while now. He tried your cough tea that we had bought a while back and has been stored in the refrigerator. He has been drinking this tea and he said of all the herbs he has taken for different things he thought that this has helped him more than any other herbs.
Thanks for bringing quality products to families that are wanting to go the natural route.

whooping cough
by Anna on Jun 4, 2012

All three of my kids had whooping cough. I had some tincture made with this and the first child that had it recovered so quickly, but used up all my tincture. The other two kids struggle through it until my second batch of tincture was ready to use. Once the tincture was ready my five month old who struggled badly for two whole weeks suddenly recovered after two days on the tincture. The whole time the tincture was being made, I tried to give him a strong infusion with tea but it seemed to do nothing. SO, I think the key to this being a remedy for whooping cough is to make it into a strong tincture. I used half vodka and half glycerin. I put it in the blender to speed up the process. It should set for at least two weeks.

Allergies

This tea has been a life saver for our seasonal allergies. It opened up our sinus congestion and relieved our sore throats. Thank you.

Relieves Whooping Cough
by Mrs. K. Campbell on Feb 18, 2010

Our children came down with pertussis recently. The Cough Tea was WONDERFUL in helping to relieve the congestion, inflammation, and
spasmodic coughing. I have QUICKLY gone through my first order and am ordering another pound and a half to help see us through this. The
children love the taste and ask for it often. I make it like you would iced tea and they drink it throughout the day. THANK YOU for offering
this mixture.

PS: In several of my herb books red clover is highly recommended for whooping cough.
