How to Soothe a Sore Throat?

Sore throats are not just painful, they can keep us from communicating. No one likes to talk while suffering from a pained or scratchy throat. Fortunately, you often can relieve the discomfort without taking any drugs.

Instructions
Step 1
Drink 4 to 6 glasses of water per day. Don't smoke or drink alcohol. Avoid very hot drinks and sugary colas because they can irritate your throat's delicate membranes.

Step 2
A hot cup of water with 2 teaspoons of honey and the juice of half of a lemon is very effective. The honey soothes, and the citrus of the lemon kills germs.

Step 3
Add 2 teaspoons of apple cider vinegar to a cup of warm water. Gargle a mouthful, spit it out and then swallow a mouthful. Repeat until the liquid is gone. Both the warm water and the vinegar will kill the germs infecting your throat.
