One morning I awoke with the symptoms of an allergy attack: runny nose, teary eyes, cough, fatigue, etc. I made the tomato tea remedy using one can of ____ [tomato] juice, 3 tsps chopped garlic, 2 Tbls lemon juice and 1 Tlbs honey and then I microwaved it for one minute. After 2-3 sips, I felt MUCH better. I'm amazed at how quickly it worked. Thank you so much for this site.

Tomato Tea Feedback - Been suffering from a second cold within a month. Last cold lasted forever spent the time just trying to feel better with OTC meds. Made it easier to get through the day but didn't really help. So about a week after getting over that cold I have another and am already feeling a lot better thanks to this website. Just found the tomato tea and I scrounged around my kitchen to come up with the best substitutes I could: tomato and basil soup, minced garlic (just threw a bunch in-love garlic!), squeezed fresh lime juice, and as much red curry powder as I can stand. Right away blew my nose and a bunch of junk came out and I CAN breathe finally!! The congestion is also deeper in my chest and my coughs are more productive. I'm sure it will take a while to get it all out of my system..but within a very short time with only the tomato soup I'm feeling so much better than with the decongestants. Thank you sooooo much!!! I am trying other remedies as well.. Love the site!

I just found the site a few days ago and tried the tomato tea with great success for my sinuses and is helping my dad sleep better!! We both have trouble stopping up at night with congestion.Also my sense of smell is coming back!! Would adding ACV be ok to add to the tea and keep the same benifits or should they be used separately?

The Spicy Tomtato Tea worked really well for my awful congestion. Within 20 minutes I felt like I could breathe. I went ahead and took a second cup to help with the congestion that was still higher up. I felt great the next morning! (By the way, I've taken homeopathic and regular meds for my sinus problems, and both only give me a few hours of relief.) I had no problems for an entire day! That night, I started to feel stuffed up again. So, I used what I had to make a tea as close to it as I could get and it worked unbelievably!!! I just took a deep breath through my nose as I was typing this just to feel how well it worked. :-) I hope you all have the same success that I'm experiencing with this.
Here's what I used on night two:

Juice from one can of ___ tomatoes & chile peppers (save the tomatoes for some yummy salsa)
3/4 c vegetable juice
1 tbsp minced garlic
The juice from one lemon
Add boiling water to get desire consistency and temperature.

ENJOY!!!

The Tomato Tea receipe from Jean in Franklin,WI is truely amazing. For about the last 10 years around February, my wife will get a very nasty respiratory infection. The medical doctors always diagnose her with sinusitis and bronchitis every year. She gets nagging dry coughs that keep her up all night and sound forceful enough to blow out a lung. They always give her antibiotics,cough supressants,and decongestion medications. It takes weeks for these medicines to work and sometimes she never gets completely over it for about a month. So this February when she got sick again,I immediately started her on Jeans Tomato Tea. This cold really jumps all over her almost overnight and she was so congested she could not smell or taste the garlic for the first 24 hours or so. After sipping the Tomatoe Tea for about 5 days, she was completely clear and free and for the first time in ten years. She DID NOT go to a doctor nor did she have to take any pharmaceutical medications.

Tomato Tea Cured My Sinus Congestion... I'd been suffering from the worse case of the flu I've had in years. I was going on my fifth day of suffering, and I could already tell my sinuses were starting to block up and were getting infected. As I couldn't miss any more work, I decided to look up a sinus remedy on this wonderful site and found Tomato Tea. I'd already been eating whole cloves of garlic and lots of tea with lemon and honey to get me through the sickness, but I knew it was gonna take something more to knock out this infection (not to mention the sinus pressure was becoming so debilitating, I needed something that would work fast!!). I sent my husband to pick up the ingredients from the store and set straight to work on this little concoction as soon as I arrived home from work (and what a miserable day it was). I used the following ingredients and measurements:

2 cups Tomato Juice
1/2 squeezed lemon
3-4 shredded cloves of garlic (I used a cheese shredder, which worked great)
As much Louisiana Hot Sauce as I could handle (about 5-6 shakes straight from the bottle)
A few shakes of Cayenne Pepper for good measure
A dash of Celery Salt

After two large cups of the tea over a 3 hour period, I was already feeling the sinus pressure ease. My stomach was feeling a little uneasy (not really upset) when I went to bed at around 10:00 pm, but I figured it was from eating dinner and having so much tea in a short period of time.

I woke up at 2:30 am and realized I was breathing through both nostrils and my throat wasn't nearly as sore or dry as it had been in my last 5 nights of restless sleep. Feeling actually good and rested, I'm now up drinking another cup of this wonderful tea and writing to earthclinic about it! It hasn't even been 24 hours, but I'm already feeling so much better! Thank you so much for this wonderful cure!

I have been suffering for 3 days now from nasal and chest congestion. I am on my first cup of tomato tea and wow! I can breathe! I feel soothed enough to sleep. It tastes good enough to add vodka too and drink regularly! lol. I added oregano to it for it's known benefits as well, and it really boosted the taste too. My chest congestion is still there, but I am able to cough it up a lot better. Thank you.

I was a little sceptical but this really does work!! My husband had severe congestion that not even the leading brand was relieving. From the first night he drank it he was able to sleep through the night. 2 days later he was better that the last 5 days. Thanks for posting this remedy, I will keep this recipe always. I used it as instructed.

V8
one real lemon juice
3 big cloves of garlic (minced or blended with the juice
Tabasco

My husband ate the garlic itself too!

I made the spicy tomato tea to attempt to cure my cold. I'm actually nursing a mug of it right now. I don't know how long the soothing effects will last but I'm breathing through my nose for the first time in 3 days and I love it.

I had first heard of tomato tea on this website and immediately went to the grocery store and bought all of the ingredients. I drank this tea for two days and by the third day I had completely forgot that I even had a terrible sinus cold, and went shopping all day with my girlfriend. I didn't have to take no more medication after just two days!

I'm paralyzed and I can walk now! (Just kidding) I followed your recipe as close as possible for my cold and flu symptoms that I had. Seems to work just fine so I'm still drinking at as a preventive measure so I don't get a cold from someone else. Thanks a lot for your information about this.

Tomato tea for sinus: WOW - this was amazing. After 2 days of suffering I decided to do some research and found this site. I thought this was taste horrid.....but I was wrong. It was actually very soothing and tasted pretty good. It worked in about 2-3 minutes.
