This article is for those musicians who always keep on struggling with harsh voice, cracking voice, throat infections,etc. Singers who often perform on stage in front of a crowd, always struggle with their vocal health.

Here are the most effective and easy ways by which you can improve your vocal health without medication.

Tip1:  Change your lifestyle
The best way is that you change your lifestyle. Stop smoking, Drink enough water as you can, Limit the intake of Dairy products. Drinking enough water hydrates your throat and the vocal chords can vibrate efficiently, limiting the intake of dairy products limits the production of phlegm in your throats.
So, overall eat less drink more.

Tip2:  Practice 
It is very important for the singers to practice daily for fixed time. A 4-5 days break in your practice routine can dump down your vocal range. Practicing makes the vocal chords stronger and your voice becomes more fuller. Vocal chords are cartilages, just like building biceps and abs in gym, vocal practice builds your vocal chords. But keep in mind, do not overpractice.

Tip3:  Food
Now this is for foodie people who can't resist themselves eating junk food and snacks. Before singing, you should avoid dairy products. Avoid cheese, milkshakes, chocolates, citrus fruits, fatty food stuffs. These all make the saliva and mucus get secreted more and interfering the vibration of vocal chords.
 Eat green and leafy vegetables, roughage, Prefer fruits instead of their juice, and most importantly DRINK WATER! always keep a water bottle along with you, whenever you get a chance drink water.

Tip4:  Avoid shouting
This seems crazy, but it is very important to avoid shouting. In a family or friends get together, in a noisy background, or any other situation where you shout to talk, Avoid that. Shouting can cause damage to your vocal chords and make your voice more cracking. Talk gently, talk softly with people and friends.

Tip5:  Steam
Hot Water Steam Inhalation, with or without a few drops of Eucalyptus, Peppermint or other Essential Oil helps to clear the sinuses.  Many proprietry brands like Karvol, Olbas Oil and Vicks Vaporub use aromatherapy oils as their main ingredient but you should be careful using these products as menthol can have a drying effect.... use sparingly.

Me, being a struggling music lover always wanted to achieve great heights in music world but never got a chance to do so. Those family responsibilities, those mind puzzling studies in schools never let me jump into the world of stardom.
