The pain due to a strep throat, a bacterial infection that causes pain and swelling of the throat, is extremely intense and uncomfortable. If left untreated, this infection might cause other issues, like kidney inflammation or rheumatic fever.
Strep throat is a result of the Streptococcus pyogenes or group A streptococcus bacteria, which are extremely contagious.
Even though it is commonly treated with antibiotics, you should try the following natural remedies that will boost immunity and relieve the symptoms:
- Lemon Oil
Lemon oil is a potent antibacterial which detoxifies the body and reduces the growth of antibiotic-resistant bacterial strains. Add a few drops to a glass of water and drink it to relieve the strep throat.
- Vitamin D
Researchers have found that vitamin D boosts the immune system, and its deficiency is related to the recurrence of respiratory conditions caused by group A strep bacteria. Therefore, take the daily vitamin D dose to prevent and treat strep throat.
- Apple Cider Vinegar
It contains acetic acid which provides strong antibacterial properties. Sip it to destroy bacteria and stimulate the good bacterial growth. This natural antibiotic will quickly relieve the symptoms.
- Oil Pulling
This technique reduces bacteria in the oral cavity. Coconut oil pulling is an excellent way to detoxify the mouth and destroy bacteria. Just swish a few tablespoons in the mouth for 10 minutes, and spit it out. Rinse the mouth and wash the teeth.
- Peppermint Oil
Peppermint oil is high in menthol, which calms the body and causes a cooling sensation in the throat. You should add a few drops of it to a glass of water and drink it. Also, you can apply a few drops to the chest, temples, and the throat.
