HERE are some tips from the experts which I need to blog so I won't forget them. I wanna sing smoothly during our church worship services. And I wanna be more professional this time so I can give glory to my Father in Heaven.
It's more the food you need to avoid :) Dairy products are to be avoided before singing, same goes for nuts, chocolate, anything that sticks to your throat, just use common sense. Honey and lemon juice are used as helpers when you have a cold and your throat is irritated, but no food "improves" your voice. proper vocal technique teaches you how to use your instrument to avoid tension and abusing your vocal chords and not food. the raw egg myth actually hurts more than helps as it's sticky in your throat and glues the vocal chords together preventing them from oscillating properly. if you have frequent throat problems firstly - go to a good vocal coach in your area or over skype and go to a doctor to have a look at your vocal chords and throat, if you need to fight vocal tiredness quickly use some honey but way before singing and wash it down with water, also many vocalists use A + E vitamin drops in their throats, but that is at the discretion of your doctor. Overdosing of those vitamins is dangerous.

The reason you are having so much trouble is that you are simply trying too hard and no using your diaphram! You vocal cords should be like the bow on a violin: it is why the music plays, but the sound comes from the instrument itself!
Here are some good tips:
Try laying on your back on the floor and taking nice beep breaths from the mid section, between your chest and stomach. Feel the air rise in and out. Do this and practice it for a few minutes before trying to sing.
Start with simple stuff first, while still lying down : Do Re Mi...

Remember that loud isn't always best and the more you practice, the better you will become and the more strength your vocal cords will get, just like exercising your muscles!
Sounds like you are trying to be loud, but you need to focus on quality, no quantity.
Try drinking water with a very light touch of lemon in it between practicing. It helps clear out mucus and other things that could be effecting your voice.
Beware that even the most experienced singers lose thier voice from simply just singing too much. Don't overdo it! When you feel that you voice is scratching, take a break. Nothing wrong with it. A lot of singers do this.
RELAX!!! Dont' try too hard. Feel the music inside of you. You can do this, it just takes practice and time. Don't try to hit notes that make you strain. If you are trying to sing like a certain artist, pick one that is close to your vocal range and keep in mind that it takes tons of practice to get where they are. It's not an overnight thing for most to be accomplished singers. If the natural ability is there, nothing can hold you back. Good Luck!
