Mucus Buster!
Sure enough, Mother knew best! From her home remedy of taking echinacea to shorten your cold, to knowing about an old-time remedy for getting mucus flowing. Let the record show, yes, Mother knew a thing or two about getting over a cold and getting mucus flowing.
For those who don’t know mucus is a slimy substance, typically not miscible with water, secreted by mucous membranes and glands for lubrication, protection, etc.
One of my mother’s favorite old-time remedy for dealing with mucus, was called Broncho-buster by the man who created it. It was a known treatment that was created by James A. Duke, PhD., who was an American botanist. Who was an authority on healing plants? Dr. Duke developed the Dr. Duke’s Phytochemical and Ethnobotanical Databases part of Duke’s Herbal Vineyard was located in Fulton Maryland. His Broncho-Buster was a list of ingredients that were mix well together and then slowly eaten. Dr. Duke suggested you mix small amounts of garlic, ginger, mustard, turmeric, chopped Chile peppers and horseradish into a paste. Then you were to spread this paste on a cracker and nibble gingerly one tiny bite at a time. The well mixed ingredients will then make everything run. Your eyes, your nose, and even thick mucus that was clogging your bronchial tubes.
There you have it! Another Old-Time Remedy that works.
