It works! I tried everything that the doctor prescribed for my sinus infection and when that did not work, I turned to the Internet and found the Tomato/Vegetable tea concoction remedy. About 3 hours after I drank it, I could actually breathe and have not had a better night's sleep in months. THANKS A MILLION!!!

Just tried the spicy tomato tea. I have had severe nasal congestion for almost 5 weeks and I am 4 months pregnant so I was really hoping this natural remedy would work. So, I made the tea; meticulously following the recipe. It has been almost an hour since I finished drinking the tea and unfortunately, it has not worked at all. It was worth a try!

For almost two years now my regular sinus condition has gotten about ten times worse. If I sleep through the night it is a miracle. Tonight I was at the end of my rope. (not to mention I had been on a variety of meds including;flonase, singular, advair, sudafed, zyrtec) and they barely take the edge off of it. I have used garlic alone and cayne pepper so when I read this receipe I brewed up a cup...and I was extremely stuffy tonight and not able to sleep. I drank/sipped it down and I am 90 percent clearer than I was in just twenty minutes. I ended with a stick of winterfresh gum (which does help to clear my sinus) and wow, I feel better than I ever have. I tried the apple cider vineger but it only took the edge off, but this stuff and my trusty stick of gum...well, I am off to bed and betting I will sleep pretty good. And talk about taste, I will drink this two to three times a day and look forward to it, it tastes great. Good Night all..

My sinuses have given me trouble for the last 2 years. In particular, my left nostril tends to feel blocked and flair up. I have not been able to pinpoint a single allergy that could be responsible and I have previously had no major allergy problems. I had three rounds of antibiotics in the not too distant past and they were slightly helpful but did not eliminate my problem.
Tomato Tea makes me feel much much better. I do not know if this is simply treating symptoms or if there is a lasting effect. I do, however, know that anyone who is having sinus pain ought to at least give this a try. Even if it only treats symptoms it sure does a fine job of it. Thank you for this recipe, it has brought me great relief.

I tried the tomato tea recipe for sinus congestion and I must admit, it was a waste of my money and time. This ... did not work AT ALL! But on the positive side, it tastes great. Guess I'll take my chances and go to the doctor for some real Rx.

I had the worst sinus pressure, so bad I was crying. I tired my mom's nasal spray, drinking water, sleeping and ignoring it thinking it would go away. Nothing. I found the tomato tea cure, with the tomato juice, garlic, hot sauce, and lemon juice, it is now 20 minutes later, my head feels better, I'm not sensitive to light anymore, I'm not tired, it's like a miracle.

I drank the Tomato Tea four times yesterday and twice this morning before work but I haven't noticed any difference whatsoever. I was really hoping this would help, especially after all the positive testimonials. Do you think I should keep trying it or just give up? Most people on here said they had results really quickly so I am just wondering. I know all the garlic can only do me good and since I am living in a foreign country, I am hesitant to take any drugs here as I don't know what is in them so I probably will keep trying! Did it take anyone else awhile to see results? Thanks!

I googled "Natural Remedy for Sinus Infection" and the results brought me to this site. I am currently taking prednisone to cure a rash that was caused by antibiotics. So when I started to experience sinus pressure & pain on Saturday morning, I knew if my sinuses became infected, I did not want to have to go back on any antibiotics. I tried the recipe for Tomato Tea and within 20 mins I was feeling relief. I took a second dose in the evening and slept through the night with no pain or stuffiness. I can honestly say that I am amazed and thrilled that this remedy seems to really do the trick! And it's tasty too! Thank You!

Just tried the tomato tea. I was really hoping this would work. Have not been able to breath for days and sleepless for past three nights. Unfortunately, it did not work.. So far Halls or Vicks has been the only help and that is not much.

I've been suffering from chronic colds and allergy symptoms since November 2006. Stuffy head, congested, headache, just not feeling well. I've been on antibiotics, become a Sudafed junkie and bought Ocean nasal spray nearly every week. I read about the tomato tea recipe last week, but was skeptical. Today, after a restless night with not much rest, I decided to try it. I love tomato juice, so no problem there. Mixed with garlic, lemon juice and hot sauce sounded a little strange. To my amazement, it was DELICIOUS! I tried to breathe the vapors before I drank it. Within 1 hour, the headache was diminishing and I could feel my congestion lessening. Now, 4 hours later, I am almost congestion free and feel GREAT!!! Thank you SO MUCH for publishing this recipe ~ I'm going to recommend it to everyone I know!

I have been having sinus problem for the last 5 years ever since moving down to Virginia 7 years ago. I developed chronic sinusitis that constantly giving headache and pressure. I tried all kinds of OTC medicine as well as prescription medicine, and nothing helps and with terrible side effect on heart rate and blood pressure. For my last three weeks, my sinuses were so congested that I could not sleep at all. After trying the Tomato tea, my sinuses clear up in about 2 hours. I continue the tomato tea treatment for the next three days, I have never felt so good in years. Best of all, the tea tastes good. Even my daughter loves it. I am not sure if the sinus problem is cure or not. However, I am enjoying my sinus problem free for a few days. Thanks. William

Re: the Nays - From what some of the Nays have said, it sounds more like Nasal Polyps than just sinus infection - The tea is not going to clear the nasal passages if there are polyps.

I have had sinus trouble for months...six rounds of antibiotics and who knows how many decongestants etc...I sat on the couch reading the remedy on line and finally got up and fixed it. It has only been 15 minutes so I can't say for long term but short term...this is great. I used tomato soup also. You can add what ever you want to season it and it was spicy but not too hot. Thank you for the recipe and thank those of you who took the time to share!

I developed a cold five days before a flight I was going to take. Went to the doctor who gave me steroidal nasal spray and told me what decongestant to take. By the time my flight date arrived, I was in a full blown sinus infection. Upon arriving at my destination, I did a search on the web for some help and found your tomato juice/hot sauce drink. Even though it did not "cure" the problem, it did bring me SOME relief. The whole left side of my face was hot, my left ear and teeth on the left side of face were killing me. After drinking your tomato juice concoction, the pain in my teeth and ear started to diminish and the side of my face started to cool. I drank this mixture five days in a row, and sometimes twice a day to relieve the symptoms. Although I need antibiotics to clear the infection, I can now tolerate the symptoms that no medicine would touch. Thank you so much for your help.
