Interesting article on many medical and hygiene treatments - NorthernRaider - 11 November 2014
This is handy not only does it show that many shop bought treatments are useless but it suggests better home made stuff that works just as well.

good article NR ......for a cough i always use honey and lemon plus a drop of whiskey , the whiskey is just in case the honey fails....and you tend not to care that much.

I use southern comfort and coke, it doesn't stop the cough but after three or four I don't give a toss anymore

Nothing to beat good old honey and lemon if the lurgy has found you. A hot bowl of soup is also quite a nice pick-me-up - particularly tomato with some crisps on the side. Actually, if you are coming down with the flu or a heavy cold, I reckon the best way to feel better is to have a hot bath (or shower), get into a bed made up fresh with clean sheets and sip the above concoction. If that doesn't work you are probably on the way out!

But freshly made tomato soup mary ...with a nice dash of freshly crushed black pepper....loaf of fresh bread ....its the high life for me !
Or dried elderflower....crush the flower into boiling cup of water, 1 teaspoon of honey....and just sip away....i know its old but it works for me.

I know folks who successfully grow lemons and limes on small shrubs in their conservatories and even bathrooms
