Apple cider vinegar (ACV) is acclaimed for its health benefits, which some believe include soothing sore throats.
The acidic nature of ACV can create an environment that is hostile to bacteria, potentially aiding in the control of infection.
Dilute apple cider vinegar with warm water—usually a tablespoon in a large glass. For added flavor and benefits, mix in honey.
Due to its acidity, it’s vital to dilute ACV properly to avoid irritation. Drink it using a straw to minimize contact with teeth and sensitive mouth tissues.
Enjoying a glass of diluted ACV once a day can be a part of your comprehensive approach to managing strep throat symptoms. (7)
