Just from my own experience, avoiding foods containing cane sugar greatly reduces vulnerability to sore throats. Cranberry capsules can help to reduce vulnerability to UTIs. Echinacea 5000 mg once or twice a day can stop a threatening throat/chest infection. Medical grade honey is really helpful for mouth ulcers or sore throats.
