4. Honey is a healthy option you can take when you have pharyngitis.
You can use honey in a number of ways. You can pour a little bit of honey in a cup of hot water and drink it. You can also just take a teaspoon of it and let it do its job. Honey may not be good for someone who is on a sugar restricted diet, but for others, this is a good option. Make sure the honey is pure. You can find honey everywhere, but not all of it is pure.
Pure honey is expensive. In health food stores you can buy honey sticks that are inexpensive, but they are still likely to be pure honey. You will want to try the hot honey drink every few hours to soothe your throat. You should notice that your throat soreness is going away after a few days. If you make a strong enough hot honey drink it may heal in a day or two.
