Teamedup Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 I had to see the toubib today with some results, but my throat is very sore and swollen. He looked at it then swobbed it to check for an angine before prescribing anything. It is just a virus, but what a good idea this is. I don't like taking anti biotics if they aren't necessary and now I'm sure I didn't need them. He told me to just suck sweets, like I ever need any encouragement to do that.

Dick Smith Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 I've got that. Diet Coke helps, surprisingly. Apparently Coca Cola was originally a throat medicine, but later they took the fun out of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5-element Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Coca-cola is recommended when one has gastro (food poisoning), as well as Vichy water. It's full of electrolytes and sugar and minerals and very good against dehydration.I've tried it to clean the toilet, was not impressed by the results. Someone had suggested it is better than hydrochloric acid![:D] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Llwyncelyn Posted March 26, 2007 Share Posted March 26, 2007 Also whilst on tour on a 'boys outing' be in cricket or rugby I swear by Coca-cola for reparing the damage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
