Would gargling with warm salt water help?

Probably not, I would really do some things to boost your immune system. Power the Vit. C. It would be really really hard to OD on Vit. C so even 1000-3000 mg a day for a short period would be fine. What your body doesn't use, you will pee out. Go get some Echinecea and start using that. Eat healthy, stay away from sugar (sugar suppresses your immune system) and make sure you drink lots of good clean water.
The theory is, if you keep your immune system strong and you have been exposed to something your body has a better chance of fighting it off.
As to the warm salt water, that is really only for after you have a sore throat...
Good luck!

If you are in good health, the chances of fighting it are pretty good. Strep is a naturally occuring virus that is even found in the dirt. Immune boosters can help, i.e. echanacia, astragalus. Gargle with an antiseptic mouthwash if you want to gargle. My husband used to get strep every year, but I would rarely get it. Lysol your doorknobs, phones, etc. if they were or are in your home.
