India is the land of ayurveda where home remedies come first and medicines next. There is absolutely no home in India which doesn’t vouch for these. Plenty of proven home remedies like these 3 Instant Cough & Cold Home Remedies are an instant help to cure cough and cold. In this article I’ll be sharing how to make Turmeric Milk, Ginger Kashaya and Tulsi Kashaya easily at home. 

Cough and cold caused by viruses and bacteria can be very irritating at times. Its the natural way of your body clearing mucus and other foreign irritants. Acute cough which stays for a week or two isn’t harmful and can be treated with these home remedies in kids and adults. However if its been bothering one more than that period, its advisable to meet a doctor. 

These 3 home remedies/ drinks are suggested for 12+ months toddlers and adults and not recommended for babies. I would recommend to take these twice a day, once after breakfast and once after dinner before sleep for best results. These drinks are very soothing in general and can be had by any, even when not suffering from a cough or cold.
