Patients: What to consume when we have a sore throat?
Doctor: For sore throats, prevention is more important than prophylaxis; avoid enclosed spaces, smoking areas, hot environments. A child gets sick more easily from a sore throat in these situations than in the highlands where temperatures are minus 10 degrees C.
Preferred foods: all foods rich in natural antibiotics: garlic, onion, leek, citrus, cherry, pineapple.
Foods to limit: chocolate, processed foods.
Phytotherapy:
mouthwash
Infusion of coriander, sage and marigold (herbaceous plants of warm places, with slightly elongated leaves): in a liter of boiled water add 5 grams of leaves and flowers of each plant; leave on infusion for five minutes and use for gargling during the day.
Cataplasm with boiled leeks (mild preparation applied to wounds or delicate parts): to be kept on the throat.
Cabbage cataplasm: choose a wide well-washed cabbage leaf. Lie down with the iron and apply warmly over the mouth.
