A common cause of hoarseness in older adults is gastroesophageal reflux,
when stomach acid comes up the swallowing tube (esophagus) and irritates the
vocal folds.
Other causes for hoarseness include allergies, thyroid problems,
neurological disorders, cold or flu infection, and trauma to the voice box. Many
people experience some hoarseness with advanced age. Home Remedies or
Hoarseness:

Black Pepper:- Try 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper powder & 1 teaspoon of
clarified Butter. Honey:- Add a little honey to the juice of 10 basil leaves.
A spoonful is sufficient to restore the voice. Apple cider vinegar :- For
laryngitis a folk remedy from Vermont uses one teaspoon of apple cider
vinegar to half glass of water, taken every hour for seven hours. Ginger :-
Peel the skin from a small ginger root. Slice the root into thin coins and
place the pieces into a small pot of water. Boil the pieces to make tea. The
tea should turn a yellowish (straw) or tan color. Add three tablespoons of
your favorite honey to sweeten the tea. Sip the hot tea slowly. The tea
gives a sharp tingle to the throat after swallowing it. After you sip it,
gently clear your throat. This tea also works for trying to get your voice
back after a cold. Onion syrup :- Another excellent gargle is made from onion
syrup, honey and lemon. To make the onion syrup: slice three large onions
and put them in four or five cups of water; simmer until syrupy; strain.
Next, put five or six tablespoonful of the syrup into a glass of warm water,
along with a tablespoon of honey and a dash of lemon. Sip slowly.
Turmeric :- Put little turmeric in hot milk and then drink it to get
relief. Lemon verbena tea provides instant relief and soothes the throat. Drink
2 -3 cups of lemon verbena tea daily. This is an effective home remedy for
hoarseness.

Home treatment acid reflux :

* Almonds: Eat a few almonds every morning, or after your meals.
Make sure that you chew them thoroughly, to maximize their effectiveness.
* Apple cider vinegar: This is regarded as the most effective
natural remedy for acid reflux, as it is one of the "good acids". Add a teaspoon
of natural apple cider vinegar to half a glass of water and sip the
mixture while you eat.
* Ginger root: Ginger is a great natural remedy for acid reflux. You
could either chew on a piece of candied ginger, or you could add some
pieces of ginger, while brewing tea.
* Apples: Chewing organic apples after your meals would help prevent
bouts of acid reflux
* Fennel seeds or tea: an excellent natural remedy for acid reflux
and other digestive related problems. They contain a compound, which
suppresses stomach spasms as well as the spasms in the gastrointestinal tract.
Chew on half a teaspoon of fennel seeds or drink a cup of warm fennel tea
after meals
