VICKS VapoRub - INTERESTING
During 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, although the scientists
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 soles of your feet, cover
with socks, and the 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.
Just happened to tune in A.M. Radio and picked up this guy talking about why
cough medicines in kids often do more harm than good, due to the chemicals
in them This method of using Vicks VapoRub on the soles of the feet was
found to be more effective than prescribed medicines for children at bed
time. In addition it seems to have a soothing and calming effect on sick
children who then went on to sleep soundly.
My wife 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. So she went
from; every few seconds uncontrollable coughing, she slept cough-free for
hours every night she used it.
If you have grandchildren, pass this on. If you end up sick, try it yourself
and you will be amazed at how it works.
DON'T SHUN THIS ONE.. TRY IT THE NEXT TIME YOU GET A BAD COLD. THE ONLY
THING YOU CAN LOSE IS YOUR COUGH..
