Wild cherry bark (Prunus serotina) continues to be a favorite ingredient in cough and cold remedies, primarily due to its sedative effect on the respiratory system. Susun Weed suggests a homemade violet flower syrup for cough treatment which turns a beautiful lavender shade but is a very labor-intensive remedy to make. Bee balm was another Native American remedy for coughs and headcolds, drunk as a tea three times a day. The Peruvian Indians utilized the natural antibiotic qualities of nasturtium leaves to treat coughs. The leaves were eaten fresh daily or drunk as a tea. And last, Native Americans also used slippery elm bark as a tea, gargle, or by chewing on small pieces of the bark to soothe the annoying symptoms of a cough.
