Received this in a e~mail today and thought what the heck it wont hurt to give it a try or maybe someone else thats sick has tried it and it worked so i would share it with everyone sorry if its a repost
VICKS VAPORUB
I wish I'd known this when my family was young during
winter colds and coughs. I am going to try it myself.
Share with young parents. Isn't life strange. When we
had a lecture on Essential Oils, they told us how the
foot soles can absorb oils. Their example: Put garlic
on your feet and within 20 minutes you can 'taste' it.
Some of us have used Vicks Vaporub for years for
everything from chapped lips to sore toes and many
body parts in between. But I've never heard of this.
And don't laugh, it works 100% of the time, though the
scientists at the Canada Research council (who
discovered it) aren't sure why.
To stop night time coughing in a child (or adult, as
we found out personally), put Vicks Vaporub generously
on the bottom of the feet at bedtime, then cove r with
socks. Even persistent, heavy, deep coughing will stop
in about 5 minutes and stay stopped for many, many
hours of relief. Works 100% of the time and is more
effective in children than even very strong
prescription cough medicines. In addition, it is
extremely soothing and comforting and they will sleep
soundly.
I heard the head of the Canada Research Council
describe these findings on the part of their
scientists when they were investigating the
effectiveness and usage of prescription cough
medicines in children as compared to alternative
therapies like acupressure.
Just happened to tune in AM Radio and picked up this
guy talking about why cough medicines in kids often do
more harm than good due to the chemical makeup of
these strong drugs so, I listened. It was a surprise
finding and found to be more effective than prescribed
medicines for children at bedtime, in addition to
having a soothing and calming e ffect on sick children
who then went on to sleep soundly.
A friend tried it on herself when she had a very deep
constant and persistent cough a few weeks ago and it
worked 100%! She said that it felt like a warm
blanket had enveloped her, coughing stopped in a few
minutes and believe me, this was a deep, (incredibly
annoying!) every few seconds, uncontrollable cough,
and she slept cough-free for hours every night that
she used it.
If you have grandchildren, pass it on. If you end up
sick, try it yourself and you will be absolutely
amazed by the effect.
