If you suffer from sore throats, see your doctor and get your sore throat treated. Then ask him or her about the following approach for keeping well:
1. Carefully follow the Lean & Free menus.
2. Exercise aerobically 20-60 minutes, 3-6 days each week.
3. Some individuals may benefit from taking a quality multi-vitamin mineral supplement that includes vitamin C.
4. Make certain to eat at least one citrus fruit or another fruit or vegetable high in vitamin C, each day.
5. Get adequate sleep (generally 7 to 8 hours a night--sometimes 9). Retire early and arise early.
I was once a "walking sore throat," until I learned to follow these six steps. I find if I don't include vitamin C in my routine, I get sick much more often, as do many of the people I work with. But don't overdo it! Even though vitamin C is water soluble, excesses of any vitamin or mineral are not advisable. Be moderate and consult your physician.
