If you want to take pipakao, drink water first. Then take the pippakao and gargle before swallowing. Do not drink any liquids after taking the pipakao for a while. Otherwise you wash away the pipakao.
Not sure about honey, though. -
same with Manuka Honey. Best is to let the undiluted honey linger around the throat area for a while.

I used to get frequent sore throats all year round until a few years ago, when I started to be more attentive about taking supplements & herbal remedies. Since then, my kids and I have been able to prevent mild sore throats from flaring up into serious ones.
The moment I’ve the slightest sore throat, I’ll take "Wellness Formula" & by Source Naturals with Zinc Lozenges also by wellness. Zinc is a great mineral for sore throats. Go to iherb.com to check out these 2 products - there’re a lot of testimonials about Wellness Formula. There’s also kids’ liquid version as well.
Now my whole family and friends have been able to recover quickly because of these 2 products. They’re most effective when you take them at the first signs of sore throat. Twice when I woke up with severe pain, I took a heavy dose of Wellness Formula and I was amazed that within one day, the sore throat was gone. Previously I would need antibiotics to recover. -
I always cook Bitter gourd soup for my family if anyone has sore throat. Good for soothing the throat. Just buy one bitter gourd, then add a bit of salt, with the black beans and also pork.

Hi,
Do you mean you add black beans on the soup?
