BEST REMEDY FOR FEVER: EGG WHITES
12/13/05: Ani (anisyab[at]yahoo.com) from Ontario, Canada writes, "Hi! I love your site and find it very useful. Thought I'd share something and you can post it if you see fit.

Egg Whites:

By far the best method to lower a high temperature within MINUTES! When I was about 4 or 5 years old, I had acquired a fever so high that I started to hallucinate. My mother was in a panic, she feared brain damage if something didn't lower the fever and FAST. My grandma told her about an old-wives' remedy.

Soak 2 cloths or hankerchiefs in egg whites and put on the soles of the feet (cover with socks). The egg whites instantaneously start to draw the temperature DOWN from the brain (where it is dangerous) to the feet (where it can do no damage). After that incident my mom used this method successfully every time I had high temp. If no eggs are on hand, chopped onion or chopped potato can be applied to feet instead, although egg whites are the fastest method.

The egg whites are also a miracle cure for minor and more severe burns. Soak or coat affected area in egg white. While the egg white is still wet you will feel no pain from the burn. As soon as it dries up the pain comes back so reapplication is necessary. This also prevents scarring from the burn."

01/04/2006: Ani (anisyab[at]yahoo.com) from Ontario, Canada writes,'"I checked with my mom and there is a small revision if using the chopped onion alternative: the onion should be mixed with vinegar. The potato is fine on its own."

1/11/2006: Ani (anisyab[at]yahoo.com) from Ontario, Canada writes, "I have NO idea why the egg white remedy is not more commonly known. In fact, I did a google search and aside from my post on Earth Clinic, found only one website mentioning it as a remedy for burns (for which it is in fact as effective as for lowering temps). It is a fail-safe, non-invasive, purely natural technique that works faster than any drug. I encourage everyone to try this method first, especially when young children are in question and speed is important. Glad you gave it a try Cathy."

2/11/2007: (anisyab[at]yahoo.com) from Ontario, Canada writes, "Hi, Ani again. In regards to the egg white for fever remedy I'd like to make a suggestion. I've noticed some people are writing that they use face cloths or towels to soak up the egg white and put on the feet. I doubt the remedy will be as effective if done that way. The material shouldn't be overly absorbent, my mom used old fashioned kerchiefs because they don't absorb too much themselves but are functional in that they hold on to the egg white. Seems people have had luck with using paper towels. Just make sure whatever you're using to put on the feet is completely soaked and dripping with the egg whites. You might have to use several eggs, not just one or two. When done properly this remedy is sure to work."

2/2/2008: Ani (anisyab[at]yahoo.com) from Ontario, Canada writes: "Hi there, just checked back to see how people are doing with the egg white remedy. Glad to see it's helping a lot of people!

Quick note: the egg whites are useless once they dry up, which can be rather quickly if the temp is high. The feet get very hot and the egg whites can literally COOK! You must check and REAPPLY as many times as necessary until the temp is back to normal. Don't give up after one application, it will work but the egg whites must be WET. My mom usually reapplied once or twice but you can keep going in case of a stubborn fever."

EC: THANK YOU, ANI!

APPLE CIDER VINEGAR

[YEA]  08/24/2006: Nick from DeWitt, MI writes: "I got home from work to find my wife with a fever over 103. We had tried a bath before I wen to work, and it helped to lower it, but it came back. She had also been taking motrin, but it did not help. I google searched and found your site. I wanted to do the egg whites, but we had just finished off the eggs this morning. I saw the posting for apple cider vinegar, which we had, and tried it just as described. The last time I checked her fever had dropped, and is nearing normal. The smell is the smell, I mean, it's vinegar, but the ends justify the means. What's a little odor, when you get a lowered fever in return? Thank you so much for providing this information for free. I have added this site to our favorites list."

[YEA]  Ratazayah from Newark, NJ writes: "When I was an infant the Dr's told my mom I was going to die, due to a particularly high fever. She was told by an elderly friend to soak a wash cloth in apple cider vinegar and place one on my forehead and one on my stomach, while it smells like all get out, my mom was able to check me out of the hospital and from that day onward, it's literally been a life saver to all the children in our family with high fevers. It takes about an hour to break the fever."

[YEA]  10/31/2009: Rohdkill from Portland, Or writes: "My son had a fever of 102 degrees and was very sick. We did the egg white method (3-4 egg whites) using cheesecloth inside a pair of his big brothers socks. In the first 1/2 hour his fever dropped 1/2 a degree and within the hour it had dropped two degrees. After that we took the cheesecloth off and up went the fever, so we did it again and left him for the night. The next morning he felt much better and was actually running and jumping around again. Thank you for all the information on this site. Go natural cures!!!!"

My daughter has been running a 102 degree fever for the last two days. After reading the remedy for using egg whites for fever to my fiance he laughed hysterically. Asking how that was going to ever work, I did it just as instructed and showed him. He still laughed, probably even harder than before. Within 15 minutes I checked her temperature again and it had dropped a degree within the first 15 and 2 degrees within 30 minutes. I was a believer and he stopped laughing."

He came to me in the afternoon with a low grade temperature. I put the egg whites on rags and tied them to his feet and the fever broke in less than 15 minutes. He is resting peacefully."

[YEA]  07/11/2009: Elizabeth from Indianapolis, Indiana writes: "My 16 month old son has been battling some sort of respiratory ailment with lots of coughing & wheezing & a fever around 102 degrees. He was so miserable last night that I got on your site to see what other people have used. We have our own chickens so I took a couple of XXL eggs & gave the egg whites a try. I used one egg white per foot two times before bed last night & his fever is gone this morning. I soaked 2 paper towels in the whites & then dropped it into a pair of his big brother's socks & then put them on his feet. He sure howled at first at the cold but then it didn't bother him. It did bother me when he was thrashing all over the bed & soaking everything with the whites which were leaking through the socks! Time to wash the sheets & jammies! Thanks EC!"

[YEA]  07/07/2009: Mary from Burbank, CA writes: "Hello, first of all I wanted to say GOD BLESS whoever came up with this remedy and this site for the advice. My one and a half year old daughter had a seizure about a week ago because of her fever and was diagnosed with a throat infection. When we came home she was very sick that night with fever of 104, i would put her in the tub and her fever would go down but about 30 minutes later it would go up again. Then, I started researching and found your site and THANK GOD i did because it saved her life. I followed the directions and her fever went from 104 to 99.4 in a matter of 30 minutes, and when I left it on all night, she never once had a fever!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have tried it on myself too because I now have strep-throat, and I also had a fever of 104 and it worked wonders. BEST REMEDY EVER!"

[YEA]  06/16/2009: SassySarah from Los Angeles, California writes: "Last winter I had a burning fever and felt awful. I was also nursing a 4 month old baby so being out of it was horrible. I needed to break the fever and start healing. I read on the site to put egg whites on my feet. My dear husband wrapped my feet in egg white clothes, wrapped them in plastic bags and watched the clock for 15 minutes. We joked that the coldness of the whites is probably why the fever breaks because I started shivering. I piled blankets on, careful not to get egg on them. Finally, he took them off, but we didn't notice a big change. But later, my fever broke and I started feeling better the next day. So, I say try the egg whites."

[WORKED TEMPORARILY]  04/19/2009: S.Turner from Nevada City, CA writes: "Three treatments of egg whites on the feet using 5 egg whites for the three treatments brought the temperature down from 103 to 101 and 1/2 but only temporarily....for about 2 hours."

I have been fighting a low grade fever for 5 days. Today it actually went up to 100.4. I searched on earth clinic and found the egg white remedy. It did not work at first for me. I went to bed with a fever, aches and chills. I woke up at one a.m. and decided to try it again. The first time, I soaked papaer towels in the egg whites and put baggies over them...did not work. This time, I read a diffferent way someone got it to work. I put on loose socks and poured half the whites of one egg in one sock and the other half in the other sock. I put another sock over that one. I waited. At first, nothing. Then, I poured more egg white in each sock. The key is to be patient. After 40 minutes my fever was down from 100.4 to 99.5. Then 30 mintues later, it went down to 98.7.

I started to feel better. I felt hungry as I had not eaten much all day. I felt cool and relaxed, the aches and pains were leaving. I am going to leave the egg white socks on for another half hour to be sure it stays down. The key for me was keeping the sock soaked in egg whites; I kept adding egg white as needed.It is nice to feel like I am on my way to recovery. I feel exhausted and I am going to get some sleep. I will apply the egg whites again tomorrow, just to be sure. Thanks Earth Clinc...again!"

[NAY]  03/19/2009: Kira from Saratoga, NY writes: "Unfortunately the egg whites did not work in bringing down my husband's fever. He seemed a little cooler but fever came right back (1/2 an hour later). I soaked paper towel in egg whites and put on the bottom of his feet. I put large plastic gallon size bags around his feet to keep egg whites off blankets. I kept it there for 15 minutes-20 minutes. I think it is always safe to have some store bought fever reducer on hand."

[YEA]  02/23/2009: Toni from Salt Lake City, UT writes: "Eggs White Cure : Last night I was searching on the web for a natural cure for my 4-year-old daughter's fever, I found this website. Asked my daugther, Anna Marie if I could do this crazy medicine on her feet. She allowed me to do it, and within 20-minutes the fever was gone. It did not come back! Thank you so much for this information, it is so valuable.

Gratefully, Toni & Anna Marie Lock"

BUT IT GOT ME THINKING, WON'T ANYTHING COLD AROUND THE FEET DO THE SAME THING? OR SOAKING FEET IN A COLD WATER WASH BASIN OR TUB? SEEMS LIKE ITS THE COOLING PROCESS... VERSUS SOME MAGIC OF EGG WHITES?"

[YEA]  02/06/2009: CH from PC, FL USA writes: "My husband had a very high fever, he was trembling with fever. I took the (organic) egg whits and i put some saran rap down, I put a hankershift and put about two egg whites in each one (one for each foot. I then had my husband hold his foot down over a pay and it placed the hankershift with the egg whites against the bottom of his foot and the the saran wrap over that so that it would not drip out and then a sock on his foot over that. (both feet) In about 10 minutes his fever was totally gone and never came back. I think the woman who the egg whites did not work for was not doing it properly."

[NAY]  02/04/2009: Jeanette from Abilene, Texas writes: "egg whites for fever: I really wanted this one to work. My 2 year old son had a high fever so I used the egg whites on his feet, of course they were spilling around everywhere so I wrapped his feet with handkerchiefs. Then put socks over it He looked ridiculous and uncomfortable, it was messy and his fever kept going up. I tried it all day long, mostly his fever just stayed the same or went up. Didn't work for us."

[YEA]  12/20/2008: Barbara from Dallas, United States writes: "I tried the egg white remedy because my 4 1/2 year ols son had been having a high temp for the past 4 days ranging from 100 to 103.7!! we took him to doc they said continue taking tylenol/motrin and that wasnt seeming to bring his temp down at all!! he had also been giving antibiotics as well and he still has temp/did not go down ! we were told he should have viral bronchitis, but with all the medication his temp should have went down by now! especially since i had been giving him tylenol/motrin every 4 hours! So tonight i tried the remedy. I soaked two paper towels in two egg whites and wrapped around his feet and placed socks over them. in about 30 min took his temp and it went down from 103.00 to 100.3! I was impressed. now i will just have to see if it will go down some more or go back up!! on all the comments no one ever said if the temp ever came back up! So Im gonna check him again in a few hours and if its back up i will re-do the remedy again. Thanks for this great remedy! i will def pass it on!"
