      Dear Shrikant,
      There is some truth in that. But fat people should not consume ghee in large amounts. one teaspoon per day should be good enough.

    Not everyone among us is a singer, but it does not mean that throat clearing is not your concern. You should never take your throat for granted for it is one of the greatest blessings we human have. When the throat is itchy, feels dry or swollen or there is a problem in producing voice, it has to be dealt in a way that offers you no side effects. What’s more better than dealing with few home ingredients.

    Amazing healthy life tips…
    Thanks for sharing 🙂

      Vaibhav I am a vocalist and trainer myself.. Drink lukewarm or water from MITTI KA MATKA. Apart from this keep doing Kharaj Abhya daily in the morning for at least 1 hour -just kharaj. In the evening practice AUM, SA and HMM for 10 minutes in total and continue with your Madhya septak abhyas. This will take at least 6-12 months but you will se a tremendous improvement in your vocals techniques and connecting with TAAR SAPTAK will become much easier.
