GA. Hope your feeling better.
Licorice root powder is nice to have on hand for sore throats.... best to balance it with a little ginger root.
You can also buy it as a teabag--- traditional medicinals brand makes a nice tea bag with licorice and ginger root that is sold in whole foods/Amazon.
Licorice will coat and soothe an inflamed throat... Will also dissolve mucus in the lungs...
