When the seasons change or colds strike, a persistent cough can become a real nuisance. Instead of reaching for over-the-counter cough syrups, try a natural remedy made with two powerful herbs: bay leaves and sage. Both are known for their healing properties and can help soothe a cough, clear the lungs, and support respiratory health.
Why Bay Leaves and Sage?
Bay leaves are rich in antioxidants and have anti-inflammatory properties, making them great for clearing congestion and soothing the respiratory tract. Sage, on the other hand, is known for its antibacterial and antiviral properties, which help fight infections while soothing a sore throat and reducing cough.
What You’ll Need:
5 dried bay leaves
1 tablespoon dried sage leaves
2 cups of water
1 tablespoon honey (optional)
1 tablespoon lemon juice (optional)
