Introduction

Coughing can be exhausting, especially during cold and flu season. Instead of reaching for over-the-counter syrups filled with artificial ingredients, you can make a simple, natural remedy at home with just three powerful ingredients: honey, onion, and garlic. This traditional mixture has been used for generations to soothe sore throats, fight infections, and ease stubborn coughs.

Why These Ingredients Work

Honey – Coats the throat, reduces irritation, and has natural antibacterial properties.

Onion – Contains compounds that help loosen mucus and act as a natural expectorant.

Garlic – Packed with allicin, a natural antimicrobial that supports the immune system.

Together, these three create a potent natural “antibiotic” that can help calm coughs and support healing.

Ingredients

1 medium onion

3–4 cloves garlic

½ cup raw honey
