10 Home Remedies For a Sore Throat
Home Remedy #3: Ginger Root Tea
Ginger is a plant that is often used as a spice and in traditional medicine. Although there is little to no scientific evidence that supports its use medicinally, it has been traditionally used as a remedy for nausea, vomiting, and a sore throat. This is thought to be attributed to the anti-inflammatory properties that can be beneficial in a sore throat. One study suggested that ginger root may help in the relaxation of airway membranes as well.
To make ginger root tea, add fresh ginger slices to hot water and let it steep. Honey and lemon can also be added to improve the taste.
