Throat Gunk? It Might Be Silent Reflux | College Basketball News

That nagging throat tickle? It might not be allergies after all. Silent reflux, or LPR, is often the real culprit—stomach acid and enzymes like pepsin are irritating your throat, triggering your body to produce thick, sticky mucus as a defense. Standard allergy meds won’t cut it—they just dry things out without fixing the root cause. The real solution? Soothe the irritated tissues with protective herbs like marshmallow root and slippery elm, which create a calming coating. New research confirms pepsin’s role in this inflammation, showing that targeted throat-coating remedies can break the cycle of irritation and excess mucus. If you’ve been stuck in this loop for years, it’s time to shift focus from symptom suppression to healing the source.
