Sore Throat Natural Remedies UPDATE

This is an update to my previous blog post about sore throat home remedies. I feel even more strongly about this one particular home remedy than the others I wrote about before because I've recently in the past few months tried this and it has been like a miracle cure to my sore throat or any mouth or throat problems!
So what is the natural remedy that I speak of so highly? It's coconut oil. Coconut oil is an antimicrobial and it is an amazing oil that can be used to prevent and fight many different ailments.
Quality Coconut Oil contains a high concentration of medium-chain saturated fatty acids like lauric acid. These fight inflammation, are easily digested, and put up a powerful fight against pathogens like bacteria, viruses and fungal infections. In general coconut oil is wonderful for the body, but all of that is for a future post.
Now I want to stress the fact that I've used coconut oil three times for myself and a few times with my kids and it has given me miraculous results. Within one day and two days in my more severe case, my throat problem was completely gone!

If you want to try this natural remedy you should put about 1 or 2 tablespoons in a small glass of hot water or a cup of warm tea and drink it. I use unrefined coconut oil but others swear that the more palatable refined coconut oil has the same fat make up(which is the good part) as unrefined and doesn't have the strong coconut taste to it.
If you are new to coconut oil or have a sensitive system with a likely hood of allergic reactions to things you should start with a lesser amount and then if needed or tolerated well, slowly add more as desired.
I'm telling you it works! Please leave comments if you've had an experience with coconut oil solving your sore throat problems.
Thanks for reading :)
