Natural Sore Throat Remedies to Try at Your Apartment by The Villages, FL

A sore throat can be brought on by many things, and no matter what the cause, people usually want to relieve it as soon as possible. Since PepperTree Apartment Homes are so luxurious and relaxing, you may want to try to soothe a sore throat with natural ingredients that you already have on hand, instead of leaving to go buy medicine. Some natural remedies for a sore throat include:

• Gargling with salt water. Dissolve a teaspoon of salt in warm water and then gargle for approximately 5 seconds. Repeat once an hour.

• Drinking honey, either by adding it to warm water or to your favorite hot tea.

• Sucking on a garlic clove the same as you would a cough drop. Raw garlic has an extremely potent flavor that can help to numb the pain, so, liking garlic may be a prerequisite to trying this method. Some people even claim that garlic has healing and antibacterial properties that can help to boost the immune system.

Additionally, be sure to stay hydrated, because fluids can aid in the soothing and healing of a sore throat. Of course, if you try these remedies in your apartment by The Villages, FL, and find that after a few days your throat does not feel better, or if it is accompanied by a high fever at any time, you should seek medical attention.
