I suffered from persistent colds for years with - as you describe - that
yucky mucus(y) feeling in the throat and constant well-meaning instructions by
all and sundry "No chilled drinks, no icecreams" etc etc. Some months ago I
was visiting my son in Dubai and his domestic help saw my condition and gave
me the following remedy for which I will thank her for the rest of my days.
Squeeze one lemon in three-fourths cup of warm water, add a tablespoon of honey
and a pinch of salt, stir well and drink on waking up in the morning on an
empty stomach. Breakfast may follow in half an hour.
I never suffered from a cold again and also, it energises me for the rest of
the day. Diabetics need to consult their doctors due to the honey content.
