Note: If you're suffering from a health issue or have experienced any side effects after consuming garlic in the past, then we suggest you consult your dietitian before trying any of the following remedies.

Garlic with Honey: The antibacterial properties of both garlic and honey can do wonders on your sore throat problem. To make this remedy, crush a few cloves of raw garlic and mix it with honey. Once mixed, consume it like a syrup. This remedy can be consumed on a daily basis to get rid of sore throat.

Garlic Cloves: Most people don't like to consume raw garlic because of its strong flavour; but if you can, then there is no better remedy like it. Consuming two raw garlic cloves through the course of the day can soothe the symptoms of sore throat and stop the infection from getting worse.
