I am told that dairy products are bad for singing as they coat the vocal cords, making them sluggish.?
My question is: there are two routes from the throat : one to the stomach and the other to the lungs, and the vocal cords are on the path to the lungs, so how can what you eat or drink get to the vocal cords ?
I would be very grateful for an informed answer, I am suffering a lot recovering from nodules on the vocal cords (vocal folds, to be more precise)
Thank you in advance

Alec, you are right that the respiratory path goes upwards first, but the question, as Linlyons has pointed out, is whether the separation is after or before the vocal cords, and though I'm hopeless at anatomy, it seems to me that it occurs *before*, hence my question

those two paths are the same before they split.. it doesn't go into your lungs but towards the top
I'm pretty sure different drinks effect people in different ways, too why not experiment with drinks with honey and so on that help?
