Re: Red Pepper for sore throats: I went to bed early Friday But barely slept, my throat was so inflamed. Saturday I called my doctor,who has no hours but called a prescription of antibiotics to the pharmacy. While waiting for my hubby to get back with the meds I clear out the sinus with my usual saline rinse then gargled with some more warm salt water . My throat was bleeding. I NEEDED something for this NOW. To kill time I googled home remedies. It was So OUTRAGEOUS maybe it would help. DID IT EVER ! ! Within 20 minutes my throat was feeling improved. Gargled every visit to the bathroom ..... and not going to buy chloroseptic spray again. Today (Monday) I'm at work telling EVERYONE about this remedy.

This has got to be the most amazing cure and instant pain remedy I've ever used. I just spent the last few days without sleep and completely losing my voice until stumbling across this website. Within hours it felt better, not perfect, but within 1 night of a decent amount of sleep the next day I feel great and I have no sore throat. I used about a teaspoon of C pepper in about 4 oz of water and gargled & drank it all night long and so far all day long. no more pain (just congestion).

I too, like many of the respondents, was a last ditch effort. 2 negative strep tests, vicadin for pain relief that didn't work, salt water, cough drops etc.etc.etc. Thank god I found this web site. My sore throat vanished almost immediately. I could finally swallow without grabbing at my throat! I wasn't brave enough to swallow it, but gargled 1 teaspoon in 4oz. warm water and felt so much better. I am off to take a nap. Thank you!!!

A week ago I felt a cold coming on and sure enough, I had a sore throat by Monday. Did my usual routine of Claritin, Jamba Juice Coldbuster, salt water gargle, and even Sudafed Cough and Cold. Those OTC remedies helped, but I wanted to annihilate the symptoms before it got worse. I searched on-line for home remedies and tried a couple -- even gargling with Coke. Saw this site, and figured, what the heck. Friday night, gargled with cayenne pepper, vinegar, honey and warm water. It worked and I was ecstatic! Gargled one more time with cayenne and hot water before bed. Got the best sleep ever in that whole week! Searched the site for other remedies for my cough and that worked too. Never going to buy OTC drugs for my cold again! Thanks so much.

Went to Disney World last week and feel that I caught a bug on the airplane ride back to Charlotte. Woke up Sunday morning, aching all over and with a sore throat. Stayed on the couch all day and as the day wore on, the sore throat got worse to the point that it was feeling like I couldn't breathe. No better Monday so I called the Dr's office and tried to get an appointment. Couldn't see me until Tuesday at 10:00am. They told me I had a viral infection and that there was not a whole lot they could give me for it. Told me to get some Mucinex and gave me a prescription for some nasal spray. No sleep since Saturday night. Found this site at 5:00am this morning and thought I had nothing to lose. Have gargled three times and swallowed some the last time. Can notice a marked improvement already. Thanks for sharing. The cayenne pepper seems to work!

I have been dealing with a sore throat for about a month and half now. the clinic wouldn't seem to help me and thought it was just allergies. I figured this remedy was too good to be true. Thanks for proving me wrong! I mixed in a little lemon tea to help with the taste, which isn't actually that bad. THANK YOU SO MUCH

I have had a severe sore throat since January 6, 2007. On the 8th of January it was so bad, my Husband took me into the emergency room. They did a strep and mono, but was negative. The doctor gave me some antibiotics and pain killers. She said if it is a bacterial, the antibiotics will clear it up. If it is viral, I will just have to let it run it's course. Both she and my Husband said it's common - on the east coast, to get a severe sore throat before getting terrible sick with what feels like the flu. I am originally from Chicago and never seemed to get colds, flu's sore throats, etc. Today I finally finished my antibiotics and sadly, after $168 spent on them, they didn't work. I shy away from taking pain killers because I don't like the "stoned" feeling. Today, at 5:33pm EST I put 1 tsp of Cayenne Pepper into 4oz's of water and although it was hot, my throat is feeling pretty damn good. It's not completely better, but I'm sure with a little more time, I'll be back to my healthy self. Which is a must, I have a 6 month old little gas monster. Since Cayenne seems to be working, maybe I can find something for gassy or as our doctor calls it "colicky" baby. Enjoy the Cayenne Pepper and the New Year everyone. :)

Cayenne Pepper really helped my sore throat. I didn't know if it would or not but it really did. I used about a teaspoon of Cayenne pepper and microwaved some water for 1 min. and gargled. My lips were on fire for a little bite nothing a couple of ice cubes couldn't help. I will try this in the future. Thanks

I just tried the cayenne pepper remedy (put it in some chicken bouillon to hide taste) and had the same problem with keeping it stirred up. So, then I tried using salsa instead of the c.b. and it worked great. Probably has some additives but tasted better and stayed stirred up better! For what that's worth..... Thanks, I enjoy your site very much.

It has only been an hour since I started the treatment of cayenne and water, but for years I've suffered from this and today I found this website with a cure. I already feel so much better, I was having trouble even swallowing saliva and now my pain is almost gone and I am having water. AMAZING! Thank you for this.

I woke up with a terrible throat and cough this morning and it even hurt when i breathed in and spoke. So, i was just looking on the internet to see what cures came up. Then, i came across this website! Soon i was off to the shops to buy some cayenne powder! When i had got some i gargled with it every 15 minutes. after the first try it didn't help much but i carried on. About 1/2 hours later my throat is better! i am still gargling though just to make sure it stays that way because it said to use the full glass before you stop. i am so grateful for this website and now i can talk as much as i want! Thank you again so much, Georgia xxxxx

It is chinese New Year for me this week . The worst thing is we Chinese are very superstitious .Being sick is the worst that can happen . My throat is killing me . I cant even swallow my own saliva. Opening my month is giving me a hard time. I tried everything . My neighbor told me to buy Cayenne Pepper i truly thought he was sick until i researched it on this site . I went out to buy this pepper gargle with it for 5 -6 times , Then i notice my pain went away. It like a wonder. Everyone should have this at home .......
