Flu? Take Honey

A hacking cough can keep you and every other household member up all night. Keep the peace with honey. Honey has long been used in traditional Chinese medicine for coughs.

It's a simple enough recipe:
* Mix 1 tablespoon honey into
* 1 cup hot water,
* stir well,
* and enjoy.

Honey acts as a natural expectorant, promoting the flow of mucus. Squeeze some lemon in if you want a little tartness.
