In addition, already in the course of working hours for many a dry throat. Professor Rainer Schönweiler, President of the German Society for Phoniatrics and Pedaudiology (DGPP) advises in a dpa report to do a vocal exercise in the morning, to prevent being hoarse after a day of intense talk. The voice settles deeper when employees hum a few minutes before the service starts. This lessens the laryngeal muscles significantly less than when employees speak in a very high pitch.

Drink again and again
Plagues a dry mouth, just helps to drink something again and again. Professor Schönweiler recommends: „Best water, not coffee or tea“, as these dry out the oral mucosa further. In addition, employees should abstain from carbonic acid in the water, because they would otherwise have to burst open in conversation. But not only that many talking is the cause of dry mucous membranes. So it says in the message that even excitement, for example, because workers are annoyed, dehydrate the mouth.

But for milder illnesses, proven home remedies can help heal and strengthen your voice. For example, fasting with soup, moist cloths on radiators, coltsfoot tea or gargling with chamomile tea or salt water are a good way to feel better again soon. (Ad)
