Don't ask me. That always burned my throat as well. And don't get me wrong, I love chicken noodle soup and salt both. But like Novadawn just said, salt is saltier when you're sick, therefor making all of the open, raw flesh on the back of your throat from where you've been coughing or have any kind of drainage, only makes it worse.
Think about it like this, you don't put salt in an open wound on your arm, so why would you drink salt water when you have a wounded throat? :cool:
