The next time you have an annoying cough and chest congestion, take my advice and try this natural remedy before you reach for the cough syrup. Turmeric powder, cloves, cardamom mixed in honey. Mix it up with warm milk or just eat/ drink it plain.

1 Teaspoon of this paste twice everyday. This paste tastes bitter.
