Since I am a vocalist, there was impression on my mind that not to eat oily, spicy and cold things because it is going to affect the throat. I had trouble for ten years; always soar throat, cough and cold. I tried antibiotic for while and shifted to Homeopathy for long time, there were no good results. Still I use to manage to perform and travel. Doctors never missed to tell me, not to drink cold water, ice cream so my job was to drink hot water, tea, coffee.Problem could not solved, always mucus on the throat, disturbance, trouble hitting high notes.
One day went to Ayurvedic doctor, he checked my pules.Asked every thing in details, what is my diet. First thing, he said my body type is pitta Prakrati, means there is too much heat in the body, and I am consuming hot things, that is why it is creating more problems. He asked me to stop having all warm things, go for cold water, cold milk, cold coffee, fruits which are good to keep you cool like water melon, grape, oranges and more. No more restrictions eat whatever you want. Since then there is no throat problem I can sing, as I want. It worked for me.
