Since I was a very small child, my mother had us gargle hot salt water for sore throats. She mixed it so that it was almost like a brine, very very salty, and then we gargled it until we gagged. Once we gagged, we were finished, because that gagging allowed the brine to get to that portion of the throat that simple gargling didn't. If anyone has ever seen what salt will do to a slug, they will understand why the salty brine breaks that gunk off the back of your throat. Good luck to everyone out there.

Soak 3 tbsp of freshly grated ginger in a pint of hot water for 5-8 mins. Strain and drink before bedtime. Add lemon juice if sore throat is accompanied by chesty cough. Drinking the ginger infusion throughout the day and at bedtime for 1-2 days will completely cure your sore throat. You will see a noticable difference after 1 cup. Ginger is an anti-inflammatory, anti-viral painkiller and mild sedative. Lemon reduces the production of mucus so is helpful for the cough.

This is an old Russian Remedy. HEat milk with one tablespoon of butter and one tablespoon of honey. Then drink it while it is still very hot. This will coat your throat making it feel better, and the heat will make swelling go down. this is not only effective but also very tastey.

A sore throat in the middle of the night woke me up. I went into the kitchen and poured a small glass of water and put about 2 teaspoons of apple cider vinegar in (non pasturized) Instantly my throat felt better!

Boil a glass of water (about 1.5 cups) or as hot as you can gargle with, and mix in 3 tsps of corn starch, and 7 drops of iodine. Gargle, but do not swallow. Iodine helps the throat heal and you can feel it after the first time. But sore throat may come back later, so if necessary, do it three times a day.
