Home remedies for sore throat – chamomile, honey, inhalation

Posted on November 10, 2022

A sore throat is a very unpleasant illness that can keep you in bed for days. Bacteria or viruses, or more specifically the infections they cause, can play a role in its development.

A sore throat can be caused by a wide range of illnesses, such as colds, flu, tonsillitis, but fungal infections, allergies and smoking can also play a role.

If you don’t want to take medication or if your sore throat is not so “dangerous”, you can try home remedies.

One great way to relieve a sore throat is to drink ginger tea. It is very simple to prepare. Just boil some water, add a fingerful of grated ginger. After 5-10 minutes you can take the pot off the stove. You can also serve it with honey and lemon.

Warm chamomile tea is also very effective in relieving a sore throat as it is a very good anti-inflammatory. Make the tea and add honey to enhance its effectiveness.

You can also benefit from the aromatherapy effects of essential oils if you are suffering from a sore throat. Eucalyptus, sandalwood, lavender and thyme essential oils have a very positive effect.

Salt water gargles can also be very useful if you have a sore throat. This time, add a pinch of turmeric powder to make the home treatment even more effective.

Make a tea with basil leaves. Wait until it cools down and gargle with it. You can drink the rest of the tea, it will only benefit you.

You can also make a great tea from a mixture of herbs. Mix ground cumin seeds, fennel, coriander, ginger and black pepper. Boil 2-3 dl of water, add a teaspoonful of the spice mix and enjoy this delicious tea in good health.

Lemon and honey are also very effective in soothing a sore throat. Heat a glass of water, add freshly squeezed lemon juice and honey and you are ready to drink.

Since honey is nothing but a natural antibiotic, it can be very effective in soothing and relieving pain.

One of the best ways to relieve a sore throat is to inhale hot steam, or inhalation. You can also add eucalyptus or peppermint essential oil to the water.
