      After most people use their voice for a long time, overloading the voice will dilate the blood vessels in the throat, and the blood distribution in the throat cannot return to normal immediately.

      If you drink a lot of cold drinks at this time, the throat will be suddenly stimulated by cold, just like a red-hot iron suddenly thrown into the water. The blood vessels will suddenly shrink, hindering blood circulation, aggravating the edema and congestion of the throat mucosa, easily causing hoarseness in the throat, and even leading to voice loss in severe cases.

      Therefore, it is best not to drink cold drinks after talking too much. You should first drink some boiled water or mineral water at room temperature. You can also drink some warm tea that nourishes yin and moisturizes the throat, such as chrysanthemum tea, green tea, etc.

      In addition, try to eat less spicy food, and it is recommended to choose light staple foods and soups. You should also eat more fruits and vegetables, such as pears, white radish, lotus root, etc.
