It’s interesting how despite all differences, a great variety of cultures all share the same remedy for cough and/or sore throat: honey.
Whether they make you drink it in tea, or give it to you straight with a spoon.
The best thing: it works. But how does it work? And how did so many different peoples come to the same conclusion?

Mix a dash of Cayenne powder, honey and warm water, gargle and spit out.
Honey breaks down protein and is a natural antibiotic and coats the throat. Cayenne, after the burn subsides, releases pain relieving endorphins in the brain.
Just don’t make the mistake i made the first time i did this; i swallowed it. It worked great, but it really burned on the way out later.
