8. Ancient Easy Breathing Recipe

This remedy has been used for an untold number of years to clear out excess mucus and restore easy breathing. You can make this at home with ingredients that you most likely already have in your kitchen!

Ingredients:

6 cups of pure water
1 pound of red/purple onions, peeled and thinly sliced
2 cups of pure cane sugar, brown sugar, or real maple syrup
2 organic lemons
7 tablespoons of raw, organic honey

Instructions:

If you are using brown sugar or cane sugar, place it in a large skillet and, over medium heat, stir constantly until it turns a golden brown color.
If you are using maple syrup, place it in a large skillet and turn the flame to medium heat.
Add the onions and cook for three to five minutes.
Add the water and bring to a boil. Continue to boil until the water is reduced by about a third.
Cool until it is just hot, not boiling, and add the lemon juice. Mix well.
Add the honey to the mixture and stir well.
Allow this mixture to sit, covered, overnight.
In the morning, strain the mixture through cheesecloth into a clean container. Be sure to squeeze the onions to get out all the juice possible.
Take one tablespoon of this mixture before each meal. Repeat until your breathing problem has healed. For maintenance, you can consume one tablespoon of this mixture either once each morning or before bedtime.

Your respiratory system works 24/7. In the polluted world that we live in today, it is no wonder that so many people have some type of breathing problem.

Try to avoid dust, mold, chemical fumes, and other types of lung irritants as much as possible. It is comforting to know, however, that in times of need, you can rely on the herbs from Mother Nature to help support a healthy respiratory system.
