Sore
throat is probably one of the most annoying things in the world. It feels
really horrible and hopeless at times. The best thing you can do about it is
wait it out or try gargling nasty mixtures in the hopes of getting rid of it.
There are a lot of methods your mom or the elders will encourage you to do, but
most of it don’t do the trick and most of them include things you wouldn’t want
to put in your mouth. This is why I salute the people who are constantly
battling irritating sore throats. These people are mostly professionals who use
their voice as their investment in their jobs.
I
was fortunate enough to speak with Coach Boyce Zamar about his work which
requires the use of his voice.
He is a Former UE Red Warriors Head Coach, the current Head Coach of PBA Dleague team Cebuana Lhuillier Gems and the current Assistant Coach of PBA team San Miguel Beermen. I got to know him from my husband’s cousin Jane, whose fiancé is Paul Zamar, the son of Coach Boyce. Although my knowledge of basketball is very limited, I know for a fact that as a coach of a professional team, his voice is somewhat the most significant component in order for him to successfully do his job.

Here’s the
summary of our discussion.
1. Real experiences about having a sore throat
while working.
a.
“It was really a pain in the ass when I had to work with the
itchiness and scratching pain. I had to use lozenges and other liquid
medications like gargle hoping that it would go away so that I can continue to
work blissfully in my court.”
2. Most embarassing because of sore throat.
a.
“There was this one time when I had a meeting with the bosses
and every time I’m pointing out something, my sore throat starts kicking in
which bothered me a lot causing me to pause a lot of times before pondering a
subject.”
3. Silliest remedy you tried using before
a.
“The silliest remedy I tried doing was changing my regular
coffee to ginger tea. My colleague suggested it to me and I really did my best
to keep drinking it for a few days but I just can’t do it for the longest time.
I have never been a fan of ginger and seeing how slow the progress was going,
it didn’t seem much of a loss.”
After the interview,
I handed Coach Boyce a Kamillosan M Spray which comes in 15 mL bottle for him
to try the next time he has a sore throat. I heard a lot of good reviews about
it and a lot of people are saying it’s effective and very convenient to use. It
was developed in Germany in 1982 and has clinically proven anti-inflammatory
and anti-bacterial ingredients to effectively reduce symptoms caused by all
stages of sore throat, pharyngitis and tonsillitis. Its main ingredient is
chamomile, one of the medicinal herbs famous for its healing powers for many
centuries in Europe. The pharmacological properties of chamomile includes
anti-inflammatory, anti-spasmodic, anti-ulcer effect, wound healing effect and
antimicrobial effect.
I am glad that
this little bad boy called sore throat can now be cured with just a few sprays.
I totally recommend on using this product and see for yourself how effective it
really is. Here are some of the FAQs and reminders that you should be aware of
before trying the product.
FAQs
1.
Can you give it
to children?
Yes, as early as
1 year old (usually used for teething and instead of spraying, you can use
cotton swabs)
2.

to pregnant women?

no study for pregnant and lactating mothers, doctors has to weigh the risks
over the benefits of the spray.
3.

take Kamillosan?
There is no
maximum does for Kamillosan and since it is natural, you can spray it as often
as needed.
REMINDERS!

I'm glad I am not prone to sore throat. But when I have, I use Bactidol. It's really effective for me. :) I'll try this one when I have the chance. I agree with coach, having sore throat is truly annoying especially if your job involves a lot of talking
