    No , Not really !! I mean you can eat Chicken but eat a homemade Chicken soup or something ! ...Um. do not eat Chocolate when you are sick it will not help your immune system at all !!! ...drink plenty of water and orange juice, and get plenty of rest ...Good luck and hope this helps ....Also drink regular tea ...that you make from your house with Honey ..It helps big time !! Hope you feel better ~

    Okay, everyone knows that to get rid of a sore throat you make lemon tea (such as Celestial Seasons Lemon Zinger) and add 1 tsp honey and 1 tsp of lemon juice (from a real lemon). Repeat every hour or as needed. Also, take 2000 mg of vitamin C once in the morning and once at night, for two days. Your sore throat should be gone in 48 hours. If it's not, see a doctor, you may have strep throat or a fungal infection (thrush). Best of luck.

    Eat what ever you want but limit the cold drink. Gargle the old fashion way - warm water and a heaping full of salt - stir and gargle and spit out. Do this at least three times and day and eventually you won't have a sore throat.

    Some good things for a sore throat would be:

    Hot tea with lemon and honey (This will soothe the throat)

    Chicken noodle soup (this will soothe, and offers essential vitamins to help cure the sore throat.)

    Jello (tastes good, and won't hurt your throat.)

    Chocolate pudding (you said you like chocolate and also won't hurt your throat.)

    A cold smoothie like Jamba Juice feels good going down when you have a sore throat.

    Try Zicam. It knocks colds and sore throats out fast. Believe it or not Airborne helps too!

    First and foremost stop all sorts of cold things. have something warm which will be soothing for your throat. You can have things like:

    - Herbal tea (with ginger, tea leaves, cloves(2), tulsi leaves and sugar)

    - Vegetables soups without butter

    - Porridges

    - Khichadi (a preparation with rice and moong(green gram) dal)

    So follow this and you'll feel better. If its too bad then see an ENT specialist.

    Try not to drink any sugary or carbonated drinks. Also, no dairy. Water, Vitamin Water, Chicken Soup (clear broth is best; the fresher the better) and hot tea with honey and lemon. Wrap a scarf around your neck to heat up and drive out the infection.

    Know the asteroid wellhead tonsil stones them for many years and it's been title not eventually.

    Best decision I've ever made! I was shocked by the way of getting out the stones out. It was so easy, but more importantly, painless. I really liked the little trick he had for preventing gag reflex. He have one happy customer here.

    Go to CVS or Walgreens or the local drug store and by Aspergum. Its gum with asprin in it. It tastes like crap but after about five minutes your throat will be good as new. I might be hard to find though, i usually have to buy all they have to stock up.
