Sore Throat is caused when inflammation of the pharynx or back of the throat occurs. This inflammation may involve even the tonsils and adenoids. Sore throats generally accompany viral infections such as colds, flu, measles, chicken pox, whooping cough, and croup.
Natural Home Remedies For Sore Throat
Sore throat sufferers typically employ the use of the simple mixture of salt and water. Salt in itself has therapeutic effects because of its iodine content and water on the other hand, releases the stress in the throat. More specifically unrefined sea salt is in itself a powerful natural antibiotic, and is far superior to regular table salt.
Garlic
Garlic is sometimes used as a natural home remedy for sore throat. Garlic is a natural antiseptic and can help to kill any infections living in the throat. Eating fresh garlic if you can stand the taste (takes some getting use to) or you can also blend a few cloves of fresh garlic in water to make the taste easier to bear…. Garlic oil capsules taken six times a day is the recommended amount for a sore throat. Kyolic brand is highly recommended.
Apple Cider Vinegar
Another one of the popular home remedies for sore throat is apple cider vinegar. In fact apple cider vinegar is a natural bacteria-fighting agent that kills the bacteria in the throat and mouth.
Gargling with the vinegar combined with two parts of warm water is a frequent therapy used as a home remedy.
Cayenne Pepper
Perhaps the single most effective of the home remedies for sore throat is cayenne pepper. Capsaicin the chief active agent in cayenne pepper is said to lower the levels of substance P in the body, the neurotransmitter that signals pain…
Capsaicin is similar to a compound found in many cold remedies for breaking up congestion, except that capsaicin works much faster. A tea made with hot cayenne pepper very quickly stimulates the mucus membranes lining the nasal passages to drain, helping to relieve congestion and stuffiness.
Many people after gaggling with a strong cayenne tea several times have found great relief from sore throat…combine this with garlic and wow!
