10 Home Remedies For a Sore Throat
Home Remedy #9: Apple Cider Vinegar
Apple cider vinegar is made from fermented apple juice and can be used in marinades, salad dressings, food preservatives, and chutneys. While there is little to no scientific evidence to support its use as a medicine, apple cider vinegar has been used traditionally for skin infections and weight loss. It is possible that the main active ingredient in apple cider vinegar known as acetic acid may be beneficial to help fight bacteria.
Hippocrates, the father of medicine, was an ancient Greek physician who used a combination of honey and apple cider vinegar in the treatment of coughs and sore throats. Those interested can try mixing a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar, a tablespoon of honey, and a cup of warm water.
