Natural Sore Throat Remedies and a Great Avon Deal

WHY IS MY THROAT SORE?

Sore throats have numerous causes, either infectious or non-infectious. Infectious causes can be either viral or bacterial.Luckily there are many natural and easy-to-use natural remedies for sore throats that can be made from simple, low cost ingredients. If you have certain other symptoms accompanying your sore throat or if it does not go away after a week, you should consult with your doctor.

NATURAL REMEDIES

Natural remedies are best taken at the very first signs and symptoms of a sore throat. Natural remedies may help in the prevention or the healing of sore throats. Some people prefer them to over-the-counter medication because they tend to be low cost, easy to prepare and use, and have few side effects.
  • Salt Water Gargle: One natural and cheap remedy is the gargling of warm salt water. Salt can be especially helpful for reducing the swelling of tonsils, because the salt draws out excess fluids and kills the harmful bacteria. Salt water may also provide pain relief and may reduce bad breath caused by the sore throat.
  • Apple Cider Vinegar: Apple cider vinegar is a natural antiseptic and antibiotic. It can also reduce pain. Simply add 2 tbsp. of apple cider vinegar to warm water and gargle it. Because of the acidic taste, some people also add honey.
  • Lemon and Honey: Lemon is a natural antiseptic and honey is a natural immune system builder. Honey may be added to a number of natural remedies as it is a great natural source of energy for those who are run down and it has antimicrobial properties. Honey is a natural anti-inflammatory so it can reduce the pain of sore throats. Add a tablespoon of honey to two tablespoons of lemon juice. Fresh lemon juice is better than bottled. You can mix this with boiled water to make a hot drink. (You may also want to add another anti-inflammatory likeborage oil or chamomilel)
