An Epsom salt and water gargle is one of the oldest remedies for treating a sore throat, and it still works wonders today. Epsom salt draws toxins out of the throat while killing germs that may be contributing to a cough. Individuals should mix half a teaspoon of Epsom salt with eight ounces of warm water and gargle several times a day for immediate relief. Avoid using this remedy on children who may accidentally swallow the gargle instead of spitting it out as Epsom salt may have a laxative effect when ingested.
