The Internet has made it possible for people to share all sorts of home remedies. While some can be hocus-pocus and ineffective, there are many home remedies that seem to do exactly what they\u2019re supposed to do. Such is the case for this cold-relieving remedy. The reason for the effectiveness of this DIY drink is attributed to the powerful ingredients.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apple Cider Vinegar<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Apple cider vinegar is highly acidic, although alkalizing in the body<\/a>, and fermented from the unstrained juice of apples. The inherent fiber, acids, and high concentration<\/a> of vitamin C help to boost immune function<\/a> and clear up the sinuses. Raw unfiltered apple cider vinegar contains something known as \u201cmust,\u201d the tiny bits and pieces that make this vinegar somewhat cloudy. The must contains a colony of probiotics<\/a>, the mother, that increase immune function, thin mucous in the throat, and clean mucous out of the respiratory system<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Cinnamon<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Cinnamon gives oatmeal, cookies, curries, and more a unique flavor profile, but this common spice has anti-infectious and antibacterial properties that can reduce inflammation<\/a> and relieve coughing or nasal congestion<\/a>. People who suffer from bronchitis<\/a> or scratchy throat are encouraged to either drink cinnamon tea, or to incorporate it in homemade remedies, such as the one in this article.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Raw Honey<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Everyone resorts to honey when they are sick. Whether they squeeze the honey directly into their mouths or stir it into their teas, honey is a go-to ingredient<\/a> for common cold patients. Raw honey has been used as a natural cough syrup for many years, and one recent study found that a 2.5 milliliter dose of raw honey before bed helped to decrease coughing and improve sleep<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
