I read somewhere that Coca-Cola can cure sore throat. Kindly let me know if this is true.

Coca-Cola and other sodas are often touted as home remedies for sore throats. However, there is no scientific evidence to support this claim.
In fact, the high sugar content in soda can actually worsen sore throats by promoting the growth of bacteria. Additionally, the caffeine in soda can be irritating to the throat. If you have a sore throat, it is best to see a doctor to rule out any underlying medical conditions.
In the meantime, you can try gargling with salt water or sucking on lozenges to help relieve the pain and inflammation.
