Got a sore throat? These homemade remedies really work...


The next time you get a sore throat, you’ve got some real relief right at home. 

According to naturopathic physician Carrie Runde, these home remedies can be very effective at reducing sore throat pain and inflammation - and could even speed recovery: 

* Carrot therapy: You’ll need 2 large carrots, a handkerchief, plastic wrap and a scarf. Grate the carrots, fold those into a handkerchief and secure loosely to your neck with some plastic wrap and a scarf. Relax for 40 minutes. Those carrots will help to clean your lymph glands of toxins and soothe that sore throat.

* Washcloth hydrotherapy: Lay a cool, washcloth over your throat and chest and relax for 30 minutes. It cools that burning throat from the outside. You’re body heat will warm the cloth and increase healing blood flow to the area.

* Bone broth soup: Chicken soup is good. Chicken soup made from the bones is even better. It’s a natural anti-inflammatory.
