Apple Cider Vinegar<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: 12pt;\">Apple cider vinegar kills bacteria and thus can be used to treat laryngitis.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2022Add two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar and a tablespoon of honey in half a cup of water.

Gargle with this solution several times a day.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: 12pt;\">\u2022Lemon juice also stimulates the production of saliva and helps loosen mucus in your throat. If you have cold symptoms with laryngitis, you can drink hot tea with lemon, or even lemon drops mixed in a glass of water.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: verdana,geneva; font-size: 12pt;\">6.
