Sore throats.

I can only recommend a few simple things. If it's too complicated or I cannot spell the remedy, then it's not for me!

So what I would do is three things:-

1) Gargle with a warm, salt water. Gargle for thirty seconds minimum a few times a day. Boil some high quality, filtered water and your best salt & let it dissolve and cool till safe to gargle with. Spit it out into the sink when done! Must do it for 30 seconds minimum or it won't work! Head back and make some interesting noises/sounds. "Let her rip".

2) Next you could find the old style aspirin that dissolves in water like we used to get back in the day- can you still get them-ours were called "Disprin"? Ask a pharmacist, I find them quite helpful (if you ask the correct question). Trick here is to gargle the same as before BUT this time, swallow the liquid afterwards. Odd, I know but this was an old trick I learnt from my favourite medical doctor years ago.

3) Take some manuka honey and keep in the mouth / throat for a while OR purchase some Manuka Honey Lozenges to suck on.

Afterthought.....

4) Are you a mouth breather? If so, you could benefit from Ayurvedic breathing exercises if your nasal and sinus passages are freed up. Proper breathing is very important and impacts on health in many ways. Some exercises are really easy to do and from my personal experience can be transformative and sometimes work inside a week. The Indians have only been doing them for thousands of years. My guess is that if they didn't work they would have given them up a long time ago!?

I hope you can give us some good feed-back after, say a week.

5) Keep up the Neti Pot as well.

6) Also, try a course of anti-histamines.

Have you tried Colloidal Silver throat spray and Colloidal Silver nasal spray?

Greetings Judy,

Have you tried the Lugol's Iodine gargle or rinse? There is much about it under COVID 19 CURES.

I make a gargle with 10 drops of 5 percent Lugol's Iodine in a 1 pint water bottle.

Here is an encouraging study article regarding Lugol's Iodine.

Lugol's solution eradicates Staphylococcus aureus biofilm in vitro - PubMed https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/29224767/

Hello. When I read your concern, first thing that came to my mind is Aloe Vera juice. I like the Lily of the Dessert one in a glass bottle. I am an empath that has been using natural medicine for more than forty years.

I am sending you best wishes, I hope this works.

You may have an infection, a safe way is to gargle with peroxide (diluted) 1oz peroxide to 3 oz of water, gargle until gone, 2x a day . check your teeth, if there is an infection in a tooth the lymph nodes in the throat will catch the infection, also you should do a nasal wash (neilmed dot com) or the sinus wash kit is $10 at walgreens. and wash your sinus out once or twice a day, and check your thyroid gland, it's in the throat, you may not be getting enough iodine, which is a blood test. The peroxide will kill fungus, viruses, and bacteria. and is very safe (3% brown bottle) keep away from eyes. Also iodine is antiseptic and will kill germs. inside and out .

Have you had your home etc tested for mold spores? I had similar symptoms and some other very strange symptoms because of extensive exposure to toxic mold.

natural fungicides

• garlic
• monolaurin
• pau d'Arco
• iodine/iodide (I use Iodoral-consult physician if you have thyroid issues before taking iodine)
• thyme
• oregano
• olive leaf extract

(I think much of the benefits of the Mediterranean diet is not so much the olive oil but the Mediterranean herbs that they use)

Get yourself some 10 ppm colloidal silver and nebulize as well as take internally every couple hrs.

I suggest Cryptolepis Sanguinolenta, in tincture form. It immediately wiped out a cough that would not go away. Iodine always worked in the past, but not this time; I suspect graphene oxide particles shed by the inoculation.

This is what I do when I get a sore throat. I take a teaspoon of manuka honey and slowly drip it down my throat focusing on where my throat is sore. Do this a couple of times a day and your sore throat should go away. Be sure to get real manuka honey. The real stuff costs a lot but it's worth it.

This is probably a long shot but try almond butter. I do it and have recommended to others with success. Just kind of slowly swallow about a tsp. a few times a day. Also, I didn't see anyone mention air blowing. Do you have A/C, forced air, fans? I have sore throats a lot and that's a major contributor. I also suck on Thayer's Slippery Elm tablets at night. May not be enough for your issue but they do have a lot of benefits. Also, in your case, it sounds like allergies bear looking into, more, too. I hope you find something that helps.

I use Goldenseal when I have a sore throat. My grandmother used to get it in powder. She would put a tiny bit into the end of a straw and blow it down my throat.

I use it differently. I take a Golden Seal Capsule, open it up, put it into a cup of boiling water and let it steep for ten minutes. I then pour it through a coffee filter and put it into a bottle with a dropper, and then use a dropper full down my throat.

I warn you that it tastes really bad, but it has always worked for me. You can also use this solution on a bad tooth. It will get rid of the infection.

One really important warning. If you are taking other medications, Golden Seal will rid your body of them, so don't use it if you are on heart medication or other life-giving medication.

Over the years I have had nonstop sore throats with Canker sores. After much research I discovered that many people are allergic to one of the ingredients in toothpastes called Sodium Lauryl Sulfate (SLS). I began using Sensodyne Toothpaste. Over 10 years ago. I have never had a sore throat again. Give this a try!

Hello Judy; Tony Pantalleresco has a YouTube channel where he gives a homemade formula to use in a humidifier that addresses several related issues. It might be an idea to try this where you sleep. Here is the link: https://youtu.be/yrqaGzkmgWk

Please try sipping on apple cider vinegar 2 or 3 times a day. Dilute it with some water if you need to for taste. Also, try to take some spoonfuls of natural yogurt (no flavors) that isn't low fat a few times a day. Allow the yogurt to rest in your throat as much as possible...which will allow direct contact of the probiotics.

Have you ever tried energy work? Often time there are energetic blockages that, over time, result in physical issues. Yours would be in the 5th chakra — the throat -- which is all about communication. Might be worth a try!

Judy, have you tried homeopathy? I find that a lot of chronic ailments disappear with homeopathy which basically works to support your immune system to throw out the problem. Nowadays there are homeopaths everywhere or you can access them online across the world. All the best!

Hello Judy,

You said you assume its allergies. For this I've been taking Japanese Quail egg extract orally twice a day with great results. It's not always easy to find but Alex Jones infowar store has it...it sells out a lot because it relieves allergy symptoms so well. I can't find the study now, but it was discovered by a French doctor years ago. Everyone I've shared it with has results within 30 minutes.

Hope you find relief for your problem..

I have a great sore throat recipe from an Asian friend. It's a gargle and works quickly.

1 tablespoon fresh sage leaves

1/4 teaspoon salt

1 cup bottled/filtered drinking water

In a glass container that is large enough to hold 2 cups of liquid; place sage leaves inside. Boil the cup of water and pour over the fresh sage. Cover the container with its lid or plastic wrap and steep 10 solid minutes. Let cool.

gargle every 2 hours as needed.

Hope it works for you!

My daughter had a sore throat similar to what you describe which lasted for weeks after a viral infection . We tried all sorts of medications, prescription and OTC, as well as other treatments but nothing worked. We eventually went to a naturopath who recommended Young Living Thieves Hard Lozenges. Made my daughter feel better almost immediately and within a day or two, her sore throat was gone completely. Never learned what it was or what caused it.

Not any sort of advice, medical or otherwise. Just sharing our experience. Best wishes for your full recovery.

You might very well have a zinc deficiency. When I feel a sore throat come on I start dissolving zinc lozenges in my mouth, one at a time. Usually I have to dissolve 3 or 4 one after the other. It works for me every time! Zinc Gluconicum Taking over the counter zinc supplements might also help you. I once dated a pharmacist that told me about this in the 90's.

Hello.

Do you take vitamin D3?

Bee products are excellent to soothe the throat.

Micronutrients to boost our immune system are essential.

Vitamin C, Selenium, Zinc, Magnesium, Quercetin and D3 are important ones.

All the best.

Have you been checked for laryngopharyngeal reflux (LPR), also known as silent reflux? It is called "silent" because a lot of people with it never experience the most common symptom of the more common reflux (GERD), which is heartburn.

Instead, we get hoarseness, sore throats, feeling like there's a lump in the throat, and feeling like you constantly need to clear your throat. Many people lose their upper singing range and have vocal fatigue. Though you aren't feeling the heartburn which usually accompanies the reflux of stomach acid into the esophagus, it is nonetheless there and is affecting not only your esophagus, but your throat and vocal chords.

If you haven't already, I recommend looking into it and asking your doctor if this could be causing your problems.

Good luck!

Try to find a naturopath doctor or someone who practices NAET (Nambudripad's Allergy Elimination Technique).

I spent a day on the golf course and developed a sore throat that would not go away. I took antibiotics and 8 weeks later I was still in terrible pain.

My sore throat was cured instantly from a NAET treatment. I have not had a sore throat since.

I hope this helps.

Please try DMSO on your throat (there is alot of info about it on this site, and some of it from me), but I wanted to point this out: DMSO's job in the tree is to keep it standing strong, and it does this by correcting the dna to whatever it is that its supposed to be doing (in a tree or on a human body).

Also, when an organ is removed for transplantation and needs to be flown there, they use diluted DMSO to keep the "dna doing what it's supposed to be doing" and not breaking down. This is how DMSO heals, and not just treats. If were you, I would both drink 1/8tsp am and pm, and would also rub it on my throat 2x/day.

There's also Manuka Honey. I give out the lozenges of it to people who are having trouble talking and it always helps. Try the liquid Manuka first. It will work quicker and is the perfect replacement for neosporin, too!

Best of luck to you!!

This may sound too simplistic, but whenever I feel a sore throat coming on, I will drink 1/2-1 lemon juiced in a little water, then rinse mouth with warm water to mitigate acid on teeth. It always works for me. Lemon is sooo beneficial. Make sure it's fresh lemon, not in the bottle.

Remedies would be Fenugreek powder or tea. Organic raw Honey and Ginger Root for the throat, some like to add horseradish. For red itchy eyes, I mix a drop of distilled water and a drop of Honey in each eyes. Its and ancient Egyptian remedy that works for me. Inhale Himilayan Salt water. An old Yoga remedy is a pinch of salt and and water on a tsp. Close one nostril and sniff up salt water, then reverse close other nostril and sniff up salt water. You can suck on Zinc lozenges.Take extra Vit. B, C, D and Probiotics. Also have you been checked for Acid reflux?

Try a Homeopathic remedy, have to match up symptoms. Excellent
