For millions of people every year, sore throats serve as the major warning signal that they are about to be hit with the flu, common cold or a bacterial infection like strep throat. On a far less ominous note, allergies, dry air and pollutants can also cause them.

While there are lots of over-the-counter medications that can treat aching throats, none of which I recommend there are countless home and natural remedies to sooth your sore throat. My favorite and the best remedy I know is the simplest.

Simply Home Remedy for Sore Throat:

• 2 organic lemons thoroughly cleaned and sliced
• 2 piece of organic ginger about the size of your pointer and middle finger together sliced into coin size pieces
