gargle with salt waterHealth Question & Answer

Listen to those who tell you to gargle with salt water.Just take a teaspoon of table salt put it in a small paper cup and add warm water and stir it so the salt will dissolve. Twice a day about 4 hours apart for one day should to the trick.
A sore throat normally leads to a cold. I swear by a product called Zicam, sold in most drug stores, to eliminate the cold within a few days. The nasal gel works best but it comes in many other forms of application. One bottle should last through a couple of colds if taken as directed.
I hope this helps and feel better.Health Question & Answer

This is great and taste good too.
Grate some fresh ginger and fresh garlic and mix it in hot hot water. Keep smelling it and sipping it. Continue to stir it so it doesn't all sink to the bottom the whole time.
As far as how much you put in of each ingredient...I would say enough to feel a nice tingle or sting.

Gargling with warm salt water is the very best remedy.
You will notice an instant relief.
also, keep your nose blown, even if you don't feel the like you need to. That will help expell all the nasty stuff out of your throat.
