Avoid AC and coolers. Avoid refrigerated drinks even water. Avoid processed and packed food. Avoid CHEESE

Haldi milk or Haldi water will help. Do Anulom Vilom Pranayam.

Take all of this for 3 weeks and after that if you donot get a relif add

Cap. Nelsin (S.G.Phytopharma) 2 caps twice a day before food with luke warm water followed by a teaspoon of honey.

Khadiradi Gutika might indeed provide relief for the persistent throat issues you’ve been experiencing. In Ayurveda, this formulation is primarily used to treat throat discomfort, often working well for symptoms like scratchiness and dryness similar to what you’ve described. The core principle of Ayurveda seeks to bring balance among the doshas—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. Throat problems could be associated with an imbalance, particularly in Vata and Kapha.

Khadiradi Gutika is made using Khadira (Acacia catechu) and other soothing herbs, which can help reduce irritation and dryness in the throat by enhancing saliva production and reducing inflammation. It’s considered particularly helpful for conditions linked to digestive imbalance, which sometimes manifest into throat-related discomforts due to Pitta imbalance—often resulting in acidity and heat so to speak.

For dosage, the common recommendation would be to take 1 to 2 tablets daily, ideally sucked slowly to maximize the contact and soothing its effect has directly on the throat. It’s often suggested to take it around half an hour before meals or as directed by an Ayurvedic practitioner.

In balancing your doshas and addressing your throat issues, you should also consider diet and lifestyle. Warm soups, herbal teas made with ginger, licorice root, and honey might further provide relief. Avoid dry, processed, or spicy foods that could aggravate your condition.

While trying Khadiradi Gutika, keep in mind it’s essential to monitor your progress. If your symptoms persist or worsen, consult an Ayurvedic practitioner to explore the root causes and Personalized treatments. If the discomfort becomes severe or persists despite remedies, getting a professional medical evaluation for thorough testing could be crucial.

Lastly, ensure you continually stay hydrated and maintain a regular schedule for meals to help balance your body’s internal rhythms, encouraging better digestion and overall soothing of the throat.
