No one's discovered Scott's Emulsion it had a picture of a large fish on the bottle,can't think what that was supposed to cure.

You can still buy it, it's basically cod liver oil and vitamins, hence the picture, of a man carrying a cod on his back.

I remember when I was young my Mother used Hills Bronchial Balsam, this was before anti bios became the norm, but I still used it up to about twenty years ago, and to be honest writing about it I can still remember the taste

Had it when I was little, tasted pretty foul as I remember. Also had Virol, Fennings fever cure and lung healers, Carters little little liver pills and Dr Williams pink pills for pale people which were iron tablets and Multivite brown vitamin pills and Minadex tonic syrup.

It's a wonder I didn't rattle!

Possibly all the liquids made the pills float.

Fennings Fever Cure always cured me whatever my complaint and I wish I could get a bottle now - along with Fennings Little Healers. They always seemed to work.

Ha ha. Yes, it is an acquired taste but works. I usually have a glass of lemonade straight after taking it so the taste doesn't linger.

I remember fennings fever cure well. We got ours in little folded paper packets and mixed with water, i loved the taste? Always worked wonders for our aiments, even used it for my children years ago, not sure if still available. The dreaded mix was from our old Irish Grandma a huge dose of malt and codliver oil in spring as a cure all. Vile! Saying that, we never seemed to ail anything!
