5 folk remedies to improve chronic pharyngitis

1. Sugarcane ginger drink

Sugarcane is called "sugar water warehouse". It is juicy and sweet. The amino acid derivative it contains can reduce the sensitivity of our pharynx, eliminate the symptoms of local pharyngeal mucosal edema and congestion, and promote the regeneration of the mucosal layer and submucosal cells. In addition, the polysaccharides and organic acids contained in sugarcane can help relieve dry mucous membranes, reduce phlegm and relieve coughs. The gingerol and zingerone contained in ginger have a certain effect on the sympathetic nervous system, which can slow down the peristalsis of our pharyngeal smooth muscles and achieve an antiemetic effect. Using sugarcane and ginger together has anti-inflammatory and antiemetic effects.
