ACTIVATED CHARCOAL

[YEA]  08/22/2007: GT from Vero Beach, Florida writes: "Charcoal pills were used for severe food poisoning. Eating chicken that has been left out in the heat of the blazing sun from 4am to dinner time, no refrigeration. Many around me got sick with severe bowel problems. I took charcoal pills,the loose bowels stoped within 10 min."

[YEA]  Shawna from Mountlake Terrace WA writes: "I have had multiple issues with food poisoning all throughout my life. I had a Naturopath tell me once to take 3-4 charcoal pills two times a day at the onset of pain and queasiness, then continue the same for 3 days afterwards. You can purchase charcoal pills from any health food store or in some local corner drug stores. I have used this remedy for about 15 yrs now and it's ALWAYS worked. My husband just had it and he took the pills and he felt better right away and was able to keep down food and water."

[YEA]  07/17/2008: Ali from Columbus, Ohio writes: "I've been up since 2 am...it's now 5!...just plastered to the toilet, must have been the chicken I had for lunch. This is all very new for me, I've never had food poisoning...but this has got to be it. I have had the worse diarrhea and cramps.. oh the cramps.. you've got to be kidding me! and I cannot miss my class in the morning, so i've been curled in a ball going back and forth to the bathroom, when i jumped online to see if there was anything I could do, and i found the acv suggestion. I crawled downstairs and took 2 tbs w/ in about 5 min of eachother..in about 30 min the cramps started to ease up, my stomach is still queasy, but i can handle that, it was the gut wrenching cramps, oh thank you for the tip! Seriously...thanks!"

[YEA]  06/12/2008: Frank from San Francisco, CA writes: "I got really bad food poisoning on a Friday evening, didn't sleep much that night with stomach cramps and felt bloated and as if I have a huge rock on my stomach. I could only sit or barely stand a couple hours after I ate the bad food. The pain and discomfort, which I won't go into details, lasted for about three days. I was exhausted and had little energy to get around. Just before I was about to call my Doctor to get antibiotics, I went online to read about food poisoning, came across this site remedies, read them, and decided to give ACV a try. I had nothing to lose and it is a very inexpensive trial. I took two gulps of the ACV. I know most of the testimonies suggest one tablespoon full, but I figure I was in a lot of pain, so went for it. The first gulp was like taking a shot of tequila; it burned some but it also felt good at the same time. Then waited a few seconds and took the second gulp; that one went smooth. I did feel the effect of the acid working its way into my stomach and intestines. I then had a different sensation in addition to my pain. Ten minutes later, I drank some water since I took more than recommended dose, and went about my routine. I can't figure out the exact time it took to stop all my pain, but I think it may have been about ten minutes or so total. The pain was gone. My intestines were a bit sore since I have been in pain for about three days. Next morning I woke up feeling well. I took two tablespoons full just to be sure I have killed the bacteria. I now feel very alert, with energy, so excited I discovered this website. I have been sharing my experience with everyone I know and care about. One more note, since ACV did the trick, I wonder what else I could use it for, so I decided to use it as a mouthwash after I brushed my teeth. It left my teeth and gums cleaned.

Thank you to whomever came up with this remedy. I am back to normal again."

[YEA]  04/12/2008: Ali from Orlando, Florida writes: "I had been a bit drained and tired all day. About an hour ago I was shakey, a bit nauseous and weak. I sent my bf out to get me some apple juice. The moment I had 1 cup of apple juice and 2 TBL spoons of ACV, i felt INSTANT relief. I was definitely not expecting it. My bf had food poisoning or some kind of stomach bug over the past day and I was scared I might get it too. I went ahead and took the concoction and I feel fine besides the heartburn which will reside in a few minutes. I dont have as much gas in my stomach and my shakiness has lessened. :) I hope I had enough liquid with the ACV since this is my first time trying it."

Lastn ight my daughter threw up 4 times between 1:30 am & 4:30 am.She'd returned the morning b4 from S Padre Island where she'd gone 4 the weekend 4 spring break around 11:30 am. When she arrived home, she ate cereal after feeding her hampters, kittens & puppy. She then went 2 her boyfriends house where she drank 2 big glasses of orange juice. She couldn't think of n e thing else she'd had besides the oj th@ may hav made her sick. Finally I got on the internet, looked u up & searched under throwing up, then food poisoning, where i came 2 acv. W had just bought acv last time i'd gone 2 the store bcoz i'd read it was a cureall basically n ur articles. She's still not feeling well, but she hasn't thrown up since. I'm not quite sure th@s the best thing however. Shouldn't she throw all the food poisoning up? Please let me know."

Thank god for your site wish I knew about it along time ago It could have saved me so much illness."

[YEA]  01/17/2008: Brent from West Allis, WI writes: "I went to the mall earlier today, where I ate at one of the restraunts in the food oourt. Just as I got home, I was on the toilet.  I had some bad painful diarrhea.  I figured I woudld search for a home remedy to what I believe would be some sort of food poisoning.  I wasn't sure if we had any Apple Cider Vinegar, but I figured I would look.  I'm sipping some now, on ice as I type this.  I've never drank the stuff, but it's not too bad.  It's very sour, but I can sip it.  My stomach is already feeling better.  I don't have to keep running to the bathroom."

[YEA]  01/17/2008: Lana from Pearl City, HI writes: "Two weeks ago, my Fiance had food poisoning and was' in and out of the bathroom for about 12 hours. So i went online and read on this article that Apple Cider Vinegar would help. I had him take two tablespoons. He said he did feel better, but this only lasted for an hour and went back to hugging the toilet.  This made me wonder if ACV really did work.  Well, last night it was my turn to get food poisoning.  But as soon as i felt that i was feeling sick i immediately took 1 tablespoon (that's as much as i could handle) of ACV. I only went to the bathroom ONCE after, and immediately felt better all throughout the day!  I now believe that ACV works very well, but you must remember to take it  ASAP!  It didn't work on my Fiance because he was too dehydrated already, but it worked for me  by preventing me from getting worse."

[YEA]  01/15/2008: Raoul from Wellington, New Zealand writes: "My girlfriend ate a tuna, cheese and bean toastie on vogels and shortly after felt sick. We went to the movies where half way through she had to go to the toilet. There she spewed and had diarrhoea (at the same time!). Then to make matters worse she discovered that there was no toilet paper available. So she cut up her knickers and used that. Which blocked the toilet. After the movie she was burbing like a demon possessed. When we got home I looked up this website and food the suggestion of using ACV. I found some ACV & honey called Honeygar. However it was 3.5 years past the use by date. I gave it to her anyway and she feels much better. Thank you."

[NAY]  12/31/2007: Tully from Houston, Tx writes: "I really wish I could say that ACV worked for my food poisoning but I' just couldn't get it down.  I tried it and my body just wouldn't take it down. I'm not a vinger lover which doesn't help.  I'm sure I could have benefited from it- but I just couldn't swallow it."

[YEA]  12/22/2007: allison from winter springs, usa writes: "thanj you soo much for your testimonies. my frind had food poisioning for about 3 hours ago and we took an out of the way trip to the store. we bought some acv and within 5 min later he is feeling much better. the cramps are gone and he is not in as much pain.  thank you all for your testimonies. allison"

I'm convinced that ACV can cure a lot of things and really improve your health. I would drink it three times a day if I wasn't afraid of possible degenerative effects it might have on my teeth enamel."

[YEA]  11/29/2007: Ajane from Orlando, USA writes: "I believe I contracted water poisoning from our tap, being that we had no water and I was really thirsty. On top of that, I'd let it sit out and all the chemicals had settled to the bottom. So I felt really weak the next day and had diarrhea and nausea the next day. I was completely miserable. Later that night, I felt like throwing up but couldn't. Finally I looked online for remedies and found this site. Luckily, we had apple cider vinegar and I'd taken it before for a bad cold and sore throat. I took it and immediately threw up. This may sound bad but I felt halfway back to normal and the nausea was gone. I took some more since I'd just thrown it up just five minutes ago. But it was way easier the second time and I already feel better already! At least try it!"

[YEA]  11/25/2007: Sandy from In the sticks, Nevada writes: "ACV is the first thing we reach for when our tummies feel out of sorts. A tablespoon of ACV in a tall glass of water has helped us many times and usually very quickly. We try to take it the minute we get that feeling of sickness.  Just sip it and take it easy until you start to feel better.  I have had it work almost immediately -- sometimes it takes up to an hour. I wish I had known about ACV years ago, as I am prone to food poisoning."

[NAY]  10/23/2007: CE from Los Angeles, California writes: "I thought I had food poisoning yesterday morning from a brunch buffet the previous day. I was vomitting and had diarrhea. I really believed the ACV would work, after reading the testimonials.  3 times during the day I took 2 tablespoons of ACV.  Each time, I held it down for about 10-20 minutes, then I vomitted.  Everything I consumed that day, including pepto bismol, I vomitted after taking the ACV.  I finally went to the doctor and was so dehydrated that they had to put me on IV to rehydrate before releasing me.  Then they injected Zorphin (?), an anti-nausea medication, and had me sip pedialite every 20 minutes, and I felt much better.  I was disappointed to learn ACV doesn't work for everyone.  I appreciate the site, though."

[YEA]  10/09/2007: Amber from Napa, CA writes: "After a long night and a trip to a fast food restaurant, I woke up at around 3am vomiting every half hour or so. I have had food poisoning in the past and have always thought I had to let it run it's course. What a miserable feeling! My boyfriend and I were in town visiting his mother, so that morning we went to her house were I continued to be ill and quite miserable. His mom saw that I was in a lot of pain and wanted to find a remedy for me. Shortly after searching the internet,she and my boyfriend went to the local grocery store and purchased the store brand acv for me. Within minutes after taking the 2 tbsp. I went from feeling horrible and sick to my stomach to feeling like a new person and full of energy. I was ill once more after taking the acv, but I had felt it coming on before I took it, and after that I was done vomiting and revitalized. To this day I tell everyone about this great cure whether or not they have food poisoning. I want to spread the word and make sure no one goes through that terrible experience unecessarily. Thank you for posting this helpful information."

No chemicals did anything but treat the symptoms. Upon returning home and taking an anti-biotic the diarrhoe went from explosive to less explosive. Test came back a "virus". I was getting really down by this and starting trawling th intenet.  I came upon this site and through I'd try the cider vinegar - what did I have to lose.  After my first dose I felt a difference right away.  My stomach felt "different". I continued with the cider vinegar and 3 months later, I am completely cured.  It didn't happen overnight for me as I had 4 weeks in China to recover from.  But I am so grateful for finding this site. I'm also thankful for all the comments that persuaded me to give it a try.  Thanks to all those who posted comments as you certainly gave me the confidence to give it a go - your comments cured me!"

[YEA]  09/27/2007: Gayle from Hewitt, Texas writes: "Excellent! I've been suffering for about 24 hours with food poisoning - the cramping and diarrhea have been the worse part for me. About an hour ago, I left work to pick up the AVC and baking soda.  I'm feeling much better now.  The cramping subsided within about 30 minutes."

[YEA]  09/26/2007: Mel from Vista, California writes: "ACV cures food poisoning. Had a bad stomach pain and diarrhea after eating a grilled barbecue meat chicken and steak. Had to go to hospital prescribed antibiotic for bacterial salmonella. It sure help and cured it. Then it happened again, I felt same symptoms next day. This time i took 2 teaspoon nondiluted acv. It cured it instantly within one minute."

[YEA]  09/25/2007: Melissa from Los Angeles, CA writes: "My brother was feeling really terrible – dizziness, pounding headaches and queasiness in AM – by noon, he could barely drive or walk. He had diarrhea and a sour stomach that later turned to constant vomiting.  I was scared, because I have never seen my brother so sick – he is a 10 time marathon runner, cyclist & an extremely healthy & strong person.  He said that he thought that he had gotten food poisoning.  I went on the internet and found this site that described the symptoms and cure.  I told him to take 2-tablespoons of ACV ...he was hesitant, because the thought of it made his stomach feel even worst.  I read to him the other stories on this site while he was on the bathroom floor by the toilet.  It wasn’t too long ‘til he mustered up the guts to take the ACV because he could feel the vomiting symptoms coming back and in less than 10 minutes after taking the ACV - he was already feeling better and could feel his system stabilizing.  By 30-minutes later, he was @ almost a 100% recovery.  He says that when he travels – he will always make sure that one of those 3-ounce liquid containers that TSA allow you to carry on will be 3-ounce of ACV!!!"

[YEA]  09/03/2007: Sonia from Hamilton, New Zealand writes: "After 3 days of agony I jumped online to see if there were any home remedies for food poisoning. I think i ate bad meat or it came from eating an apple, either way the pain was unbearable. After reading this remedy from this site my darling husband went and found some Apple cider vinegar from the supermarket.. i was prepared for a burning sensation as others suggested it would be like, but i like vinegar so i found it quite nice and no burning whatsoever. the results were pretty much immediate although a little groggy which I think is due to being dehydrated,' the pains in my tummy have gone and i feel 100% better than what i did before. I only wish i knew of this 3 days ago.. thanks to everyone who has posted..I truley reccommend this home remedy!"
