NEW USE FOR VICKS VAPORUB (Anecdote)

Snopes reported that the claims about Vicks Vaporub have not been scientifically proven by the research Council in Canada.
====================================================================================

Amazing! READ ITALL. It works 100
percent of the time,
although the scientists at the Canada
Research Council
(who discovered it) aren't sure why.

To stop night-time coughing in a child
(or an adult, as we
found out personally), put Vicks
Vaporub generously on the
bottom of the feet at bedtime and then
cover with socks.

Even persistent, heavy, deep coughing
will stop in about five
minutes, and stay stopped for many,
many hours of relief. This
works 100 percent 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.

I heard the head of The Canada
Research Council describe these
findings by their scientists when they
were investigating
the effectiveness and usage of
prescription cough medicines in
children as compared to alternative
therapies like acupressure.
I just happened to tune in to 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 make-up
of these strong drugs,
so I listened. It was found to be more
effective than prescribed
medicines for children at bedtime and
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 percent! She said
it felt like a warm blanket had
enveloped her. The 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 she
used it.

If you end up sick, try it yourself
and you will be absolutely amazed
at the effect.
