Hello,
The tonsils in our throat has many crypts or depressions . The food we eat get filled up in the crypts and cause tonsillar infection.
The best way is to gargle your mouth with hydrogen peroxide , it has superoxide ions which will help in cleaning the throat . it has no other chemical , and is harmless.
These crypts if remain clean then would not allow tonsillar infection.
In doubt do reply.
