13. Lemons
You can use either lemon juice or lemon tea to help get rid of viruses, bacterial infections, and promote healing. You can mix the juice of half of an organic lemon and a teaspoon of raw, organic honey in a glass of warm water. You can also make a gargle solution of lemon mixed with warm water and gargle with this three or four times each day. Lemon tea mixed with honey is also another good choice to help clear out your throat.

Green tea contains tons of healthy compounds that will help your throat heal while easing the pain and irritation. Add some raw, organic honey to green tea for a double helping of healing goodness.

15. Raisins
This is an old fashioned home remedy that is said to work well. Boil ¼ cup of raisins in 1 cup of water. Eat the raisins and drink the water three or four times each day.
Extra Tips:
- Speak as little as possible to allow your throat and vocal chords to rest while they heal.
- Drink plenty of liquids, especially water and herbal teas.
- Add a humidifier to your room to keep your throat moist.
- Keep your nose clear and breathe through your nose, as breathing through your mouth will dry out your throat and expose your larynx to cold air.
- Stop smoking and avoid second hand smoke.
