Ghee
Ghee is also known as clarified butter, which you get by simmering and straining butter to remove the water content. Surprisingly, the result is a type of butter that has been used in herbal medicine for a long time. Ghee is well-known to possess both anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties. It can also keep the throat moist, provided you don’t wash it down right away with water. One particularly effective home remedy for an irritated/dry throat is to chew a whole peppercorn and wash it down with a spoonful of warm ghee. The peppercorn works to fight bacteria and inflammation, and the ghee does the same — all the while coating the throat to keep it moist.
While not everyone knows the benefits of ghee, it’s a good idea to have clarified butter around, just in case. It’s easy to obtain that you can use ghee no matter where you are. If you have a dry throat and want to deal with the symptoms without medication, ghee is a fantastic way to ease throat conditions without relying on strong medication.
