[YEA]  04/07/2007: Leslie from Miami, Florida writes: "Hello, I started feeling really bad yesterday. I was running a fever and had the body aches but no sore throat. I took the dayquil and and fell asleep and when I woke up this morning my body aches were gone as well as my fever but I have the worst sore throat ever. I can hardly swallow without cringing and almost crying. I decided to search the internet for home remedies and I cam across this website. I was reading the comments and was immediately thinking this will not work for me. I continued with my morning and then came back to read more comments and decided to try it out. I did not have any cayenne pepper but I had crushed red pepper. I put a good amount of crused red pepper flakes in some warm water and gargled the whole cup, and I could start to feel the pain going away when I was gargling. I finished the cup and then made some hot tea with honey and lemon. I can tell you at this point, I feel better but the pain is still there but not as prevalent as before I started the gargling technique. I am going to continue gargling with the peppers and water as well as the honey and lemon tea and I will see how it makes me feel. I will keep you posted. Thank you for this website!"

[YEA]  04/04/2007: Ross from Drexel Hill, USA writes: "Ok, I'm one of the biggest doubters ever and I never try anything. My sore throat pain was so bad that I couldn't eat or sleep for three days. I tried a z-pack and the salt water and it only seemed to get worse although my fever broke. After gargling once with red pepper i could already talk and drink water easily for the first time. I am going to gargle again in fifteen an maybe get something to eat. Ill keep you posted. Thanks"

[YEA]  04/02/2007: Kristi from Fredericksburg, VA writes: "Hot wings are my method of making my throat feel better. Not sure that it 'cures' the sore throat, but it numbs the pain (probably like cayenne)...and lets you heal whatever ailment you have without the pain; plus, the chicken gives you nourishment while you probably have a lack of appetite for other foods. I always take a teaspoon of salt mixed with warm water and gargle at least 3 times before bedtime, also. Usually it helps and I feel better the next day...only once has this not worked out, but then Ibuprofen always does the trick!!"

[YEA]  04/02/2007: Julie from Marlborough, Massachusetts writes: "I've had the worst sore throat for three days, and since I recently changed doctors my new doctor was not going to be able to see me for at least a week (call me impatient, but there's no way i can sit around in this kind of pain for over a week). so i checked out this site, and i tried the cayenne pepper cure. I added my own twist to it, I took a can of tomato soup and added a very large amount of cayenne pepper, plus some crushed red pepper flakes and some powdered garlic. it stung like the dickens going down, but less than two hours later i feel so much better. i could barely swallow anything this morning, it hurt so bad i was almost in tears, i can't believe this made me feel so much better in such a short amount of time. i'm going to keep drinking the soup and cayenne pepper and see how everything goes. thank you!!!"

[YEA]  03/28/2007: Travis from Redondo Beach, CA writes: "COMBO THERAPY! Wow! Okay here's what I did..

First of all, it's 2AM and I COULDN'T SLEEP. I googled "sore throat remedies" and found this and another site who kept talking about "cayenne" the amazing remedy. Great but what if it's 2AM and no 24 hour grocery stores nearby? (scratch, scratch)

Here's the solution; go to 711, buy Tabasco sauce, a lemon and alka seltzer. (First I just read a bit more to make sure I wasn't just being too spontaneous, a time or two Tabasco was mentioned; I also read about the guys mom who's a Chemist; she mentioned gargling with lime juice, then baking soda to quickly change the PH and kill the bacteria).

So I first dripped the sauce down the back of my throat.. kinda weird but the "burn" felt tingly and kind of good. Wasn't really doing much, so with hot water I squeezed half the lemon, and put in a lot of Tabasco. I then gargled with that a few times and felt satisfied. Then a few minutes later, I squeezed the other 1/2 of the lemon in a cup by itself, and gargled that (it was actually pretty tasty). THEN a few minutes later, I used just a little water, dropped in the Alka Seltzer (made with baking soda and aspirin) and gargled with that a few times.

Almost INSTANTLY my throat was totally relieved. Now, I pray sleep will come and I can carry on with my day tomorrow without being grumpy. Thanks for reading, Hope you feel better soon!"

[YEA]  03/26/2007: Brian from Cirencester, UK writes: "I wouldn't call it a 'cure' but a very good relief. I had a terrible sore throat but gargling with 1tsp of cayenne in a tumbler of warm water for as long as I could stand took away the pain COMPLETELY for up to about an hour and a half. My throat went in a couple of days but I put that down to me fighting the bugs off. If you find the burning sensation on the lips too much, try a milk drink or yoghurt after gargling. I'll be heading for the spice rack next time I get a sore throat for sure."

[YEA]  03/25/2007: Jenn from Chicago, IL writes: "I have had terrible pain in my throat for almost 4 days now. The worst part is, it's spring break! I have plans to go to the dells with my best friend tomorrow and I would hate to cancel that. I have already had to cancel movie nights with my friends because of my sore throat. So at last I Googled "Sore Throat Cures" and this site came up! This was the first time I've ever heard of this remedy, but I decided to give it a try because the doctor prescription certainly did nothing. I've only gargled 3 times now, but my throat seems 50% better within 35 minutes or so! Now I don't have to cringe every time I have to swallow or eat something. Thank you so much, now I can go on a trip of a lifetime! Love you guys!"

My lymph node is the size of a golf ball, went to the doc and he said it was viral. I couldn't take it anymore...i could not even cry bc it put too much strain on my throat. Googled "sore throat remedys" and this website came up. God Bless You Guys!!!! I have only gargled one time and i can say that its a 30% better already! I am sipping tea with lemon and a dash of cayenne right now and think that it's helping too...Thank you guys. My friend was going to take me to ER but i think i can tolerate it now:-)"

[YEA]  03/20/2007: Ricky from Lexington, Texas writes: "I've had a sore throat for about 2 days now and hadn't planned on using anything because nothing has ever worked in the past. Decided to google "sore throat remedy" this morning and found your site. I ran out at lunch and bought some organic ceyenne pepper and bottled water. I mixed 1 tsp of ceyenne with 12 oz of water and gargled about five times. Believe it or not, my sore throat is already almost gone. Great remedy! Now I'm going to try the ACV for HBP. Thanks!"

[YEA]  03/20/2007: Girish from Chicago, IL writes: "Here is why (I think) Cayenne Pepper works: Cayenne Pepper contains Capsaicin - which known to us for long time as a great pain killer. When one gargles with pepper powder, capsaicin overloads the nerve endings in the throat giving instance relief from the pain. If you gargle on a regular basis then the nerves are overloaded and you don't feel pain. Capsaicin is used in chronic pain management exactly for same reason. I don't think it has any curative qualities in this case (like getting rid of the actual infection), but the pain relief is great!"

When I got back from my vacation I still had the sore throat so I came online and searched some home remedies. I came across this one and just read it because I thought it was a joke. But I began to read all the comments and how it worked so well for everyone. So I thought, why not give it a shot. I went out and bought honey, C. Pepper, and white vinegar. Came home and gargled every 15 minutes for the night, and to my shock my sore throat was gone...I couldnt believe it. This stuff is incredible!!!"

[YEA]  03/17/2007: Angie from Indianapolis, Marion writes: "I have been feeling terrible for about two days to the point where I ant even swallow my spit without wantig to cry, but until I came across this website, I thought I was dying. I have gargled a 1/2 glass of the cayenne pepper with warm water and I feel so much better. I am going to finish the glass. I just have to keep stirring so the cayenne does not stay in the bottom of the glass. Also watch out for a burning mouth. I will say I'll deal with the burning mouth instead of the sore throat. Thank God for this website."

I really need my voice to be in good shape so I did some research for a sore throat cure. I'm currently drinking a cup of black tea with honey, lemon, cayenne pepper (just a little), and sugar (I don't like honey in my tea so this is there for sweetness) and already it feels SO much better! I'll be making another cup before I go tomorrow morning!"

I tried to sleep but I couldn't get over the pain, remembering this website from the ACV cure I used for overall health, I searched for sore throats. Coming to the Cayenne page I went downstairs and took 1/2 tsp of powder and 6oz of warm water, gargled and then swallowed, it felt fantastic and I felt almost immediate results, I just woke up and I am taking it again, bye bye sore throat, what a remedy!"
