I was always complaining that the doctor's medication couldn’t cure my cough. So, recently when I was having cough I decided not to waste my money to see a doctor because the last time I had a cough I consulted 2 doctors and the first doctor I went twice for medications. It was like paying for nothing or paying for more trouble because I ended up very weak, the medications make me lose my appetite.

For Cough:
.
Put some Red dates, pure honey, a cup of water in a steaming pot. Steam it for 2 hours and drink it.
For ulcer and sore throat:
.
I keep a cucumber in my fridge. Each time I feel my throat a little dry or feel like I am going to have sore throat, I will cut 3 or 4 slices of Japanese Cucumber and chew in my mouth. It is very sweet and crispy but I usually don’t take a lot because it may be too cooling for me.

It is simple as that and it works really well when I started to feel the symptoms.

For serious cases is still better to consult a doctor.

Oh, thanks for these very valuable tips! I will take note of them. Cos I hate sore throat and cough! It's always better to go for natural cure than drugs prescribed by doctor unless the condition is serious. I really believe that these tips work very well at the first sign of sore throat and cough, but not when full blown! : )
I've tried it before (courtesy from my colleague) and it worked for me as well.

Hi Molly
I enjoy eating red dates especially in a soup with watercress. I find the better quality dates make a difference to the taste too.
foongpc - Hopefully it works for you too.
Tching - I am glad you tried it too. When my friend told me about that, I didnt believe it works, but now I do.
renet13 - I think cucumber is not good for your cough especially when you have phelgm. Be careful what you eat wor!
Grace - Like your mum, whatever soup I boil, I will sure to throw in some red dates to make the soup sweeter. :):)
Jacky -
Red date? I use it for red date tea, and add it into the soup.
It nourish blood and calm the mind for insomnia and restlessness; invigorate the spleen and stomach with poor appetite; promote secretions of vital fluids; retard aging; warming; moderating the toxicity of potent drugs. It is best for fatigue, hypertension, physical exhaustion and malnutrition. Haha I copied that from somewhere.
Tekkuas - Hope it works for you too! :):)
Xin - No harm trying ! :):)
Keat - How do you judge the quality? Price or size? Usually the bigger one are more expensive, does it means the quality is better? Anyway most shop sell the smaller one.
