Neither — its homeopathic throat spray time. Shit will make you feel like a million bucks. I worked a conference with this shit and sang a few songs while fighting some allergy post nasal drip that made my throat angry. Get down to the co-op and get you some!
They have healing properties that help prevent the spreading of microbes and bacteria. They're anti-inflammatory. I'm currently sick and use the spray to help with coughing.
My ass got hit with a bad case of laryngitis (or tonsillitis???) and rn I'm feeling miserable. BUT one thing that's def been helping with the dry throat has been the Ricola Caramel throat balm drops (AKA: "Ricola Caramel with Liquid Center Throat Balm Drops"). It's great bc it's non-drying and also it tastes delicious bc it has honey in the center.
NOTE: If you've got a dry cough you DON'T want to use cough drops with menthol bc it dries you out even more; these cough drops have pectin as their active ingredient, which acts as an oral demulcent to create a film over the mucus membrane in your throat to help w/any irritation.
*Obviously it's not gonna miraculously heal you but it's good for momentary relief
The more you do it, the more you realize anything is possible. Anyone judging you is projecting. Hit that pavement and hit it hard cause it just makes everything easier and removes the charge. You can do it small or do it big. But….do it.
