3 GREAT REMEDIES OF SORE THROAT

A sore throat burns,feel scratchy and may cause pain that makes it hard to talk or swallow. The usual cause is a virus or bacteria,though throat irritation may also be caused by smoking,dry heat,postnasal drip or an allergic reaction. These are great remedies that will make you feel better.

1. SALT WATER GARGLE: Salt acts as a mild antiseptic,and also draws water out of mucous membranes in the throat,which helps to clear phlegm. Dissolve a half-teaspoon salt in a glass of warm water,gargle and spit out. Repeat same steps up to four times a day.

2. GARGLE WITH BAKING-SODA: Dissolve one-half teaspoon of baking soda in a glass of warm water and gargle it.

3. QUIT SMOKING: Cigarette smoke is extremely irritating to the lining of the throat. Breathe through your nose rather than your mouth. This is a natural way to humidify the air you breathe.
