Home remedies to cure a dry throat?!


Question: Home remedies to cure a dry throat.?
I've tried other stuff, like strepsils and lozenges but they don't seem to work. Any suggestions.?Health Question & Answer


Answers:
Here are some suggestions :

* Sip water or sugarless drinks often.
* Avoid drinks with caffeine, such as coffee, tea, and some sodas. Caffeine can dry out the mouth.
* Sip water or a sugarless drink during meals. This will make chewing and swallowing easier. It may also improve the taste of food.
* Chew sugarless gum or suck on sugarless hard candy to stimulate saliva flow; citrus, cinnamon or mint-flavored candies are good choices.
* Don't use tobacco or alcohol. They dry out the mouth.
* Be aware that spicy or salty foods may cause pain in a dry mouth.
* Use a humidifier at nightHealth Question & Answer

Keep well hydrated by drinking lots of water>

Honey and lemon in hot water or tea can help soothe the throat.

Sucking on hard candies can stimulate saliva which will coat the throat. I personally like the sugar-free ones, but I'm a diabetic so that helps.

There's also this stuff called Throat Note which is made with all natural herbal ingredients. Check out this site for it: http://www.allnaturalmerchandise.com/Bio...

When you go to sleep, put a lozenge on your tongue. Don't suck hard on it, just let it sit there and slowly melt down your throat overnight. I use Ricola's (sugar free) and after a couple of nights, my dry throat is gone.Health Question & Answer
