Sore Throat Prevention

Members Were Sparked

Whenever I feel a tingle in my throat, I get a small glass of warm water and add 1 T of apple cider vinegar and drink it down. Then I start drinking a cup of hot tea a couple times a day with 1 T of honey and 1 T of apple cider vinegar and have not had a problem with sore throat in several years since I started doing this.

Personal Care Using Salt

1.Extend toothbrush life. Soak toothbrushes in salt water before your first use; they'll last longer.
2.Clean teeth. Use one part fine salt to two parts baking soda -- dip your toothbrush in the mix and brush as usual. You can also use the same mix dissolved in water for orthodontic appliances.
3.Ease mouth problems. For cankers, abscesses, & other mouth sores, rinse your mouth with a weak solution of warm saltwater several times a day.
