Ingredients: Sugar, lemon and water
When I was 9 years old, I had a sore throat because of the cold weather. I could
not speak and at the same time I coughed. I could not really sleep because my
throat was sore and I coughed all the time. My mother made lemonade for me by
cutting up a lemon and mixing it with four cups of water and four spoons of
sugar. She gave me a large warm glass. That helped me. My mother brought a glass
of lemonade three hours every day. When I was sick, I drank many cups of lemonade,
eight or maybe nine cups over two days. I also drank coffee. When I drank coffee,
I felt better my sore throat became less and I could speak a little bit. This
remedy was old, and some people still use it for sore throats and coughs. This
helped me to cure my sore throat. I felt better after two days. With this remedy,
I was cured and I didn’t need to go to hospital.

Ingredients: Salty Potato Chips
I got this remedy from my Italian great grandmother and it works perfect. Most
of us know that gargling salt water will kill the bacteria in yourmouth causing
bad breath. My great grandmother's version is to eat an
entire bag of salty potato chips. The chips when chewed form a salty pastewhich
clings to the bag of your throat better than just gargling. I usuallyget the
salt and vinegar flavor because I know that vinegar is harmful to bacteria also.

Ingredients: Mint leaves, mint candy, cough drops, mint gum etc. and
hot water
Instructions: You can chew strong mint leaves while drinking hot water.
The menthol mixes with the water and runs down your throat, soothing
it. Since most candy with mint flavoring have menthol, this remedy is
convienient as long as you have hot water and candy. My favorite mint to
use is Cool Mint Listerine PocketPaks. They dissolve quickly and are
very strong. This is commonly used by my sister who is a professional
singer. This works really well!8-12oz. of hot water that you can stand mix with
1oz. peroxide,1teaspoon salt.
gargle once every hour it does the job.

eat a banana right before going to bed, your sore throat should be better in
the morning.
For a sore throat, I learned
and have used for years a Yoga posture called The Lion. You get on your
hands and knees, open your mouth as wide as possible, and stick out your tongue
as far as possible. I read that it lets blood flow into the area of your throat
to irrigate it (and I suppose bringing in healthy nutrients). Mysore throat
never lasts more than a day after I use this method.
Ed de Jong
Glenn Wright, Montreal, Quebec,

underdog999@netzero.net Ê
THIS METHOD GIVES IMMEDIATE RELIEF: Ê Gargle full-strength with Listerine, then slow down your gargle until you are just about to gag, or swallow it. Tilt your head forward into the sink to empty out your mouth, but don't close your mouth, or spit... just let it fall out. When the Listerine is mostly out of your mouth, tilt your head back, and swallow the remaining Listerine, so that it goes down the back of your throat. Very soon afterward, you will forget you had a sore throat. Ê
If we had a sore throat we would swallow Vicks,Ê I know now days they tell you it is not good to swallow, but we did it as kids and it cured our sore throats.Ê If our noses were blocked up, we put the Vicks at the beginning of our nostrils, and through the night it would clear it up.Ê Once again, now days the bottle says not to do it, but it worked then, and it still works now.Ê I am assuming the only reason they tell you not to do it is because they have several other vicks products that will do the same thing on the market.

Whenever i get a sore throat i drink tea with honey and it immediately makes me feel better. It lasts a long time also! Hope it helps you.By Richard Ragone
When I was a child I assumed the cause of the sore throat was bacteria and I remmbered sunlight kills some bacteria. So I opened my mouth into direct sunlight for 15 mins. I know this sounds strange but it has worked for me. The effect is rather imediate.
If you wake up in the morning
with a sore throat, take two eggs and fry them sunny-side-up. Make sure the
yokes are a little runny. Put about a teaspoon of cayenne (red) pepper on each
yoke of your eggs, (one tsp. for each yoke.) You can put a little tobasco sauce
and/or salt on them for taste if you like. Mix the pepper in with the egg yolks.
When you eat, let the mixture run down the sore part of your throat. It actually
tickles a little and makes your eyes and mouth water, but hang in there. Wash
it down with a glass of orange juice. This is a little hard-core, I know, but
it really works for me. You get used to the hot-pepper after a while, you may
even like it!
From Josh Bohlen, Wisconsin
I would like to submit a home remedy. I just learned this one myself, and it works wonders. The remedy is for throat infections: Gargle with a mixture of Apple Cider Vinegar & Warm water 2-3 times a day until the infection disappears. I am prone to throat infections, and this remedy saved me a trip to the doctor. -Molly
