1.The Effect of Boiled Lagundi Leaves to the Cough
Abstract:

Carbocistine is a kind of medicine who can cure cough. This investigatory project that we made shows that we can make our own cough reliever without spending money and we use herbal plants instead of chemicals. It is much affordable if you have a lagundi plant (vitex negudo l.) in your backyard. We add brown sugar so that the syrup will have a sweet taste.

Background of the Study:
Many people, especially those who are poor cannot afford to buy medicine when they are sick. How can they solve it? Well I suggest to use the herbal plant lagundi (nitex negundo l.) to remove cough. In making our own carbocistine we can prevent spending for buying carbocistine. The only ingredients we use are water, lagundi leaves, arnibal (brown sugar) and vinegar. I use arnibal because it is sweeter than white sugar.
Statement of the Problem:
This study ought to answer the following problems:
1. Can we produce our own carbocistine out of lagundi leaves, and arnibal?
2. Is the carbocistine effective?
3. Is the vinegar an effective preservative?

Lagundi – Scientific name: vitex negundo l. English name: fine leaved chaste tree, Tagalog name: lagundi, kamalan.
Vinegar – a sour liquid obtained by fermentation of wine or malt use to flavor or preserve foods.
Brown sugar – soft sugar whose crystals are covered by a film of refined dark syrup.

Analysis of Data:
1. For the first time we conduct an experiment. We are not satisfied in the syrup we made. It spoiled after 1 day.
2. Second time we made a syrup, we are more satisfied with the syrup that the first and it didn’t spoiled after one day.

Hypothesis:
1. We can produce lagundi syrup out of lagundi leaves, brown sugar, and vinegar.
