Throat Infection Rescue: Fast Healing, Naturally! 🌿

Hi My Loves! 💕

I am recovering from a severe case of tonsillitis, and this time, my recovery is nothing short of miraculous—almost magical! ✨

If someone had shared this advice with me earlier, my bi-annual suffering from tonsil infections could have been minimized. But oh well, hopefully, this will help someone else! 😊

Recognizing the Early Signs 👀

There are certain signals your body gives before a throat infection or cold kicks in. I notice excessive burping and gas around 12 hours before I start feeling unwell.

Why does this happen? 🤔

• Burping increases due to excess saliva production and swallowing more air.

• Viral throat infections temporarily disrupt digestion, causing inefficient digestion and gas buildup in the stomach.

Being aware of these early symptoms allows you to act ASAP and stop the infection in its tracks! 🚀

First Things First: Stock Up! 🛍️

As soon as you notice the symptoms, get your essentials ready: ✅ A camphor-peppermint-clove-based cold balm 🌿 ✅ Herbal teas for throat relief 🍵 ✅ Vitamin C concentrate tablets 🍊 ✅ ORS for hydration 💦 ✅ Fresh coconut water 🥥 ✅ Homemade bone broth 🍲 ✅ Natural chewable herbal tablets for itchy throat 🍬 ✅ Pink salt & baking soda for gargling 🧂

Prepare Your Space & Body 🏠🚿

🧼 Clean your room and freshen up your space. 🚿 Take a warm shower (including a head bath) if you don’t have a fever—because you might not get the chance in the next 48 hours! 🧣 Wear extra layers, even if you feel warm. Cover your belly button to protect your energy center, as Ayurveda and TCM believe cold air exposure disrupts Qi (vital energy).

Nourish Your Body for Quick Recovery 🥣

🍲 Drink bone broth twice a day—this provides vital nutrients without straining digestion. 🥚 Stick to simple foods: eggs, bone broth, and easy-to-digest carbs. 🥤 Stay hydrated: Drink 3.5 liters of water with 3000 mg Vitamin C tablets throughout the day. 💊 If your drinking water is heavily processed (e.g., RO), supplement with Zinc & Magnesium at night. 🥥 Drink coconut water and, if still dehydrated, have ORS juice-box-sized packs for electrolytes. 🍎 Eat seasonal fruits at room temperature. 🍵 Sip herbal teas to support immunity (I’ve linked my favorites below!).

Soothe Your Throat Naturally 🗣️

🧂 Start your day with saltwater gargles: Mix lukewarm water with Himalayan pink salt and a pinch of baking soda. This clears mucus, reduces itchiness, and soothes inflammation. 🍯 Follow up with warm honey water—mornings are usually the worst with all the itching and mucus buildup. 💨 Use a Neti Pot to clear sinuses (check out this tutorial!).

Extra Comfort Measures 😌

🛏️ Sleep on cotton bedding—avoid fur or mink blankets that trap dust and allergens. 🌿 Apply cold balm behind your ears, on your throat, chest, and the soles of your feet. Wear socks to prevent it from rubbing off. 😴 Prioritize rest—your body is working hard to heal, so give it the support it deserves.

A Final Note on Health Sovereignty ✨

I used to rely on antibiotics for years, unaware of these traditional healing methods. Now, I believe in body sovereignty, and this mindset shift has made me healthier on my own terms. 🌱💖

Here are the products I use for recovery:

🔹 Fast & Up Vitamin C Tablets 

🔹 Samahan Tea – (Liquid Gold) Herbal Tea ☕

🔹 Himalaya Cold Balm 🌿 

🔹 Neti Pot

Hope this helps! Stay healthy, my loves. 💖

Love,
