It is that time of year when excess mucus and phlem can become a nuisance—even though they are basically a good thing. The congestion that results can be inconvenience. A simple gargle using salt and warm water will help.

This remedy creates a high-salt barrier which works to pull out fluids from the tissues in the throat area, helping to remove mucus, irritants and infections. You should also enjoy a noticeable reduction in inflammation, pain and mucus after gargling.

Dissolve a teaspoon of sea salt in a cup of hot water. Allow to cool slightly and then gargle with this solution. Repeat several times a day for continued relief.
