I usually do not post to these things but I was recently diagnosed with strep throat and I have been miserable! I am on antibiotics and sore throat meds plus ib profren for pain and still no relief. So I am up at my house in the middle of the night trying to think of anything and I see lemon juice in the kitchen so I squirt the juice in a big glass add some water and start sipping it for about a hour. It stings the first couple drinks but gets better the longer you drink and now I'm here with no throat pain and finally relief!
So if anyone needs a natural remedy for strep throat, lemon juice and water will give you almost immediate relief!!

I may only be 11 but i have strep throat and it's really painful, so i was trying to find a temporary cure to the pain, and i tried this water with lemon and honey, and it worked! whoever invented this cure is trul brilliant!
