How To Clear Your Throat |

Q: What's the proper way to clear my throat?
A: Some say that you should never clear your throat, but excess
mucous inhibits free vocal cord coordination. The trick is to
find a way to clear your throat without irritating it. Do a
gentle "whispered cough" (without tone) and then swallow.
Repeat. If this doesn't work, you need to deal with the excess
mucous production. Squeeze a 1/4 of a lemon in a tall glass of
water and sip over about 20 minutes. This should cut through a
lot of the excess mucous. Furthermore, watch your dairy intake...
especially cheese. You should never eat it on the day of a
performance!
