I tried the 3 tbls apple cider vinegar with 3 tbls lemon 2 tbls honey and 16 oz of water. Today is new years eve, and what does everyone do on this night, party. I definitely did not want to stay home sucking on cough drops all night while everyone one was having fun. So i look online for cures, i saw this one and it worked! I tried it and I started to feel better instantly!

I've been reading about ACV in a few health/diet books for the past 2 years. But, I thought I'd rather die than drink vinegar. But, one night I had the worst sore throat ever. It was 6:30 on a Friday night so out of desperation I gargled with it on and off for two hours. Can I tell you that the worst sore throat I have ever had was cured by this method. I also drank hot tea, with organic raw honey, lemon, and ACV. It was soothing and I figured I was cleansing my body too. My sore throat was one of those where you can't even swallow your own saliva and you just have to keep spitting it out. Gross but true. Since I knew the Drs. were closed and I would have to wait til Monday I decided to give it a go. W/in 20 min, my throat cleared up. It was an incredible miracle. I'm the first to admit that a lot of stuff is quacky. However, I have turned my beliefs into knowing the true and earthclinic is more truth than I have read in a long time. Thanks readers! and Ted from Bangkok. Thanks and much love

This stuff is AMAZING. I have been sick for over a month and had the worst sore throat, it cured me in 3 days! I am also lactose intolerant, and by taking 2tbsp ACV in Punch and a glass of lactaid i no longer have the effects I used to have, it has also helped me regain my energy, and lose weight! I feel better than I have in years!!! P.S. putting the ACV in fruit punch almost completely covers the taste.

I would like to say thanks for the great advice on the web site. I was hurting for more that 2 weeks now. Went to the doctors and got a throat culture said it was fine and no strep throat. i said ok but why does it still hurt. 3 days later it got worse -- lemon and honey didn't work... went back to hospital. Cussed the hell out of the doctor, already spent 200 dollars and lost 15 pounds in 3 days. Could not eat or drink. Put me on antibiotics... still no fix in 3 days said will cure up in 24hrs. I tried the vinegar apple cider. 8 hrs later i was able to swallow and chew foods. Thanks for everything.

I READ ALL THE DIFFERENT REMEDIES FOR A SORE THROAT- GARLIC, ACV, TOBASCO, HONEY, CAYENNE AND I DIDN'T KNOW WHICH TO CHOOSE! SO I COMBINED THEM ALL TOGETHER. 8 OUNCES OF HOT WATER AND 4 TBS OF ACV, 2TBS HONEY, SEVERAL DROPS OF TOBASCO, 2 CLOVES OF GARLIC 1/2 TEASPOON OF CAYENNE. I STINK BUT I FEEL GREAT! VERY POWERFUL DRINK BUT NOT SO TASTY AND YOU HAVE TO KEEP STIRING SO NOTHING SETTLES.

I always remember my grandma putting Apple Cider Vinegar on our sunburns when we were up north in the summer and limited on supplies. It always took the sting out and healed quickly. Then, I stumbled on your site (thank goodness!) for some tips on relieving my cold and sore throat (mixing ACV with lemon and honey and drinking it with warm water). I am pregnant and unable to take much cough/cold medicine and needed to find an alternative. This helped immensely and I wasn't in a fog like most cold medicines put you in. The sore throat was gone overnight and the cold a few days later.

ACV vapors cured a very bad sore throat that was back behind my left ear. I have a deviated septum so, I felt very positive about inhaling the fumes of the cider vinegar. I figured this would be better than the saline spray I had been using for 2 days. Within minutes I was able to cough up and blow a lot of mucus from my nasal passage!! and my throat....WAS BACK TO NORMAL!!!! Thank YOU SO MUCH!!. All of you guys and ladies who took the time to put your comments and results on this site. I hope I have helped someone with my results as well. I love this site!!

Yeah, my right tonsil has swollen and has been this way for 2 days so I googled home remedies. It has gotten to the point where drinking, eating, or swallowing hurts to the "can't stand it" point. It still hurts, but no where near as much as it did. Thanks!

ACV, honey, cayenne pepper, and lemon juice with hot water. At first, I only received slight relief from my sore throat, but after about the third cup, I was feeling much better. Tried the tomato tea too but wasn't quite as good as I had hoped. Love your website.

I read about the ACV treatment for a sore throat, it took me a while to muster up the courage and gargle it, but mixing 2 Table spoons of ACV, 2 table spoons of lemon Juice, and about 24 oz of water. Didn't make it so bad, plus it isn't so bad for your teeth enamel that way. It works!!

Salty Water is a great one but it take too long. Vinegar and honey actually works quiet well it may be the most disgusting thing on the planet but it works. Just remember to take sips of water in between taking the remedy.

Yesterday I came down with an awful sore throat, accompanied with a nagging cough and chills. My throat literally felt like it was on fire. I did a search and found this page. I've used it for many things, but I would have never thought about Apple Cider Vinegar for a sore throat. Although I don't make a habit of it, I am one of the few people that can drink Apple Cider Vinegar straight. Anyway, being concerned about the tooth enamel thing, I went ahead and poured Apple Cider Vinegar in a shot glass, drank it like a sailor and washed it down with spring water afterward. I did this about once every hour for approximately six hours. Here I am, six hours later, and I can actually swallow without cringing. My sore throat is manageable and my accompanied cough has also calmed down. Thanks for the tip!

I always use vinegar/honey equal parts, when I have a sore throat, the vinegar kills bacteria, just like antibiotics.

Since there are so many chemicals in what we eat, and the pharmaceutical companies are making millions from us. I have decided to go natural with certain things. Yesterday a friendly cashier coughed in my direction. That night I suffered from the most horrible sore throat and nasal congestion I have ever had. After a little research I took ACV with warm water, gargled at first then drank the rest. If you want a quick natural cure, this is the way to go. Not only did my sore throat go away, but my entire nasal cavity was drained. (Sorry) no infection, thank god, some ear wax came out without any trouble. Cheap, and no doctor visit. They are going to have to get money from someone else.

The Apple Cider Vinegar has to be the nastiest thing ever created, it really does not taste good, but my voice does not crack, squeak, or break anymore.
