Dealing with a severe cough? Here is another remedy which you can try at home I suggest. Crush about 10 bitter cola fruits and make powder out of it. Next, add a portion of that similar honey into the container with the powder in it. Swallow one to two spoons full of the mixture three times in 5 consecutive days. The throat pint is expected to sooth a bitter and vicious cough, and within a short time, one should start to feel better. It should be taken daily though it is advisable if the symptoms persist to see a health care provider.i
