>> VICKS VAPOR RUB

>>
>> 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 Vapo rub 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 Vapo rub
>> generously on the bottom of the feet at bedtime, then cover with socks.
>> Even persistent, 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 chemical makeup of these strong drugs so, I listened. It was a
>> surprise finding and found to be more effective than prescribed medicines
>> for children at bedtime, in addition 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 and believe me, this was a deep, ( incredibly annoying!) every
>> few seconds uncontrollable cough, and she slept cough-free for hours
>> every night that she used it.
>>
>> If you have grandchildren, pass this on. If you end up sick, try it
>> yourself and you will be absolutely amazed at how it works
