My brother...

My brother has some chest congestion. Does anyone know any herbal teas that would help other than eucalyptus?

Is the chest congestion from a cold? If it is a cold, you can try this. 1 ounce of comfrey root, cut up fine and 2 cups of filtered or distilled water. Bring to a boil & simmer for 30 mins, covered. Strain & sweeten with honey. Strain & drink 1/2 cup 3 times a day. Comfrey has pain relieving properties as well to reduce the inflammations in the bronchial.

If he's coughing, you can try this cough syrup. My son ask for this if he's even got the slightest tickle in his throat! :)

You need ~2 cups of cherries and just enough water to cover. Add about 1/2 lemon, sliced up and 2 cups of honey. Simmer mixture until cherries are soft & the pits fall out of the cherries. Remove the pits & the lemon slices. Keep refrigerated & take a tablespoon whenever you need it.
