I have an evil sore throat right now. When I got home from work today I remembered a cure I saw on the internet some time back that I tried, and it worked. Here is the gargle recipe:
8oz warm water
1tsp salt
cayenne- as much as you can stand
Mix this little concoction together and gargle the complete 8oz every hour {not all at once but in manageable sips}. I swear to you this numbs the mess out of my throat and clears my nose. I am about to go do it again and up my 3 dashes of pepper to 4.
Hope y'all are having a good week!
