CAYENNE PEPPER READER FEEDBACK

[YEA]  07/19/2006: D from Abq, NM writes: "Made a cayenne pepper "tea" using 1/2t in 1 cup of very warm water and sipped slowly. The pain is gone for now, will repeat later with maybe 1/4t. Gargling was harder than just taking small sips. My first gargle really made me cough. The heat makes the fumes more potent."

[YEA]  07/13/2006: Megan from Viola, DE writes: "I just finished gargling with cayenne pepper and my throat does feel better. It's less harsh than salt water and the taste doesn't make me gag. For strep you must follow your doctor's orders to take antibiotics for the mandated term. This is a good "comfort" remedy that I will recommend to anyone."

[NAY]  07/12/2006: James from St. Pete, FL writes: "I don't know what people are talking about. I tried the Cayenne peper and hot water on my sore throat and it only made things worse. Now not only does my throat still hurt but my mouth is full of spit that hurts to swallow. Then to make things even worse the cayenne pepper loosed a lot mucus so now it hurt coming up and down. Whatever you do don't swallow this stuff it burned the hell out my throat. Only plus I can say is I do feel wide awake, but its after midnight now I have to get up 6 hours."

[YEA]  07/08/2006: Carole from Alexandria, Ontario writes: "My throat was on fire! I couldn't swallow my spit it was horrible. Now I come here and read that I had to gargle with cayenne pepper? Well I was at the end of my rope, either try this or go to the hospital for it has been 4 days of pure hell. I first gargled this mixture WOW my mouth was on fire! After a few minutes I figured well at least something else hurt instead of my thoat so I tried it again after 15 minutes and again after that. It's amazing, I can actually feel my throat getting better! It doesn't hurt as much as before and I'm beginning to swallow without making a horrible face lol. Please, if you have a very bad sore throat, try it. Believe me it's worth it."

[YEA]  07/07/2006: Kodi from Perthy, WA writes: "I am so amazed this worked. It was hot as hell, but within half an hour my glands had halved in size and it wasn't nearly as difficult to swallow. Will continue the gargle (2 tsp in glass of warm water) until symptoms disappear!! Yay."

[YEA]  07/02/2006: Joe from Aransas Pass, Texas writes: "This remedy most definitely takes away the pain of a sore throat and also eases the swelling of glands in the throat. I simply boiled 2 cups of water and made a tea with about three tablespoons of pepper. I then gargled this tea for about 5 minutes and felt some great relief! I repeated this gargle in 15 minutes and noticed that my glands aren't nearly as swollen now. This is a wonderful remedy! You must try it!"

[YEA]  07/01/2006: John A from San Jose writes: "FRIGGIN A!!! this stuff actually works. Man i never EVER try anything i hear from the internet but this ISH works! I was out playing bball with the homies at the bball cage, we play till the nights get cold and even rainny nights. i guess i caught a fever and sore throat from that. it's been hurting now for 4 days. this instantly killed the pain. my swollen neck is dwindling in size and MAN! it feels good to be back in action. thanks penny and all the folks testimonies that helped me do this."

[YEA]  06/19/2006: Shana from El Paso, TX writes: "This really worked or I would not have commented on it. I never comment about anything good or bad. This worked within seconds. When I was making this concoction I thought this is silly but as soon as the cayenne pepper and water mixture hit my throat I could tell it was already working. I turn into a little baby when I have a sore throat. Those days are over. Thank you for your help."

[YEA]  06/18/2006: Mit from Van Nuys, CA writes: "I woke up this morning and my neck and cheeks were completely swollen. My throat felt like a knife was piercing through it. I gargled in salt water 3 times... and then i found this site. I tried the cayenne pepper in cold and hot water and gargled a whole bottle. I was in so much pain I was desperate for the swelling to go down. AND IT worked.... at 9:30pm, a few hours later... I was able to eat, talk and swallow again. Thanks so much... it's a sunday and I couldn't get to a doctor!!"

[YEA]  06/15/2006: Jonny from Los Angeles writes: "I too was in extreme pain from a viral sore throat infection and nothing else was seeming to do the trick to alleviate. I have heard of the cayenne thing before, but never tried it. Yesterday I decided to, and was (like everyone else) completely shocked at how well it worked. The only complaint I have is that last night and today, no matter how much cayenne I use, it doesn't seem to work quite as well. Whatever, at least it soothes the pain and lets me swallow. Thanks."

[YEA]  06/14/2006: Mark from Cincinnati, OH writes: "i had bad strep throat to the point that i didn't want to swallow at all. i was desperate for some relief since nothing had helped yet. i searched online and came across this site with the cayenne pepper remedy. i tried it and could not believe how quickly my throat improved. Thank God for everybody sharing!"

[YEA]  06/08/2006: Lauren from DeSoto, MO writes: "Holy sh--! This stuff really works! I have had a terrible cold the past few days and nothing seemed to help. My throat got to hurting so bad I thought "what the hell?" I will try this cayenne pepper stuff. It is at home and I like not having to go out and buy medicine. I did it about three times one night and the next morning it was almost completely gone! The only part that was still sore was a tiny corner in the back of my throat, and later in the morning, even that went away. Thanks a lot!"

[YEA]  06/05/2006: Fionna from St. Andrews, Scotland writes: "I had a bad attack of sinusitis. In one day my throat was sore. I coughed up all sorts of nasties that night. Started herbs the next day, and that night it dropped in my chest. Unlike anything I have ever had. Anyway, after two weeks I saw the end of the tunnel, and BOOM! My throat started feeling sore... two days later I woke up with pain. I grabbed the flashlight, mirror, and took a wee look... hmmm... oh yes, red splosh with white heads... STREP. Will the torment ever end I said to myself. Again, I digress. I Googled strep, found this site. I tried the Apple Cider...no success. I tried the cayenne. Burn baby burn. I noticed a wee bit of ease in about 40 minutes. I have done the cayenne about six times today and compared to the pain this morning, I dare say, my throat feels 40% better! :-) My tongue has wee bit more colour. Almost all the wee white heads are gone, and the red splosh...not as red! Again... :-) I will be more diligent tommorrow with the cayenne. I put about two cups of water in a pot. I then added about 4 cayenne capsules (40,000 Heat units each) to the water. I then simply heated it up on the stove everytime I gargled. Easy-Peasy. The burn is worth it. Give it a go then! I thank the Lord Almighty for this site and cayenne pepper. God bless and all get well soon!"

[YEA]  05/18/2006: Laura from Wilmette, IL writes: "I was getting a bad sore throat to the point where it hurt to swallow. I was upset because I had a concert next week. I tried the cayenne pepper. I only had to mix it in water three times gargling it before it was almost completely gone. I was so happy because now it doesn't hurt to swallow or sing. Thanks."

[YEA]  05/11/2006: Maria from Orlando, FL writes: "Worked like Magic! I started gargling when I felt I was getting my daughter's virus. She had a severely sore throat and couldn't swallow for a few days. It took about 24 hours to clear it, but I immediately felt true relief after gargling for about a minute. I repeated a few times during the day. Now I know what to do in the future!"

[YEA]  05/10/2006: R from NC writes: "Thanks so much for providing all of this invaluable info! I just started using the inhalation method of H202 (I put it in a pump atomizer instead of the nose spray container), as well as the cayenne pepper gargle for a sore throat. Both seem to be working well... PS - Be careful to wash hands after gargling with cayenne so you don't accidently rub eyes!"

[YEA]  05/03/2006: KM from Toronto writes: "I'm a dental student studying for final exams and I came down with a sore throat. I went onto google and found this remedy....it works great. MUCH MUCH better than any cough syrup!"

[YEA]  04/29/2006: Jana from Riverside, CA writes: "WOW! I have been miserable for three days. Could not breath especially when laying down, throat hurt so bad last night in particular I was wishing I'd gone to the Doctor (but kept thinking eh, it'll go away!!) I went on line and found this site and out of desperation (throat lozenges, sprays, ibuprofen, cold medicine... not of that was helping with the pain) I looked in my pantry for cayenne, couldn't find any, found hot pepper sauce and cayenne is in it, mixed about 2 teasp. in really hot water maybe 1/4 cup or less and gargeled the heck out of it, I did it three times and finally fell asleep about 3a.m., I woke up and I could swallow again without tears and I was coughing up all kind of foul stuff. I am amazed."

[YEA]  04/12/2006: Heidi from Cheshire, UK writes: "Have had a really sore throat all week, its something i suffer with a lot along with it always goes a horrid chesty cough, Could not sleep at all last night as chest was full of mucus and throat was so sore for constant coughing all night. Finally my poor partner gave up and went to sleep in the spare room, was so fed up and had tried all the throat tablets going so decided to google sore throat remedies, was AMAZED to see cayenne pepper as a cure, after pluckingup the courage to give it a go i mixed 2 tps in half a jug of warm water........ tasted foul, burnt my tongue and lips but after several attempts to return to the kitchen to give it another try, my throat does actually feel a little better, could be the tingling lips and numbness but hoping it's a sign that my throat is healing!"

[YEA]  04/10/2006: Nicole from Worcester, MA writes: "I have to honest when I first read this I was not this biggest believer, however I was in extreme pain. I had a sore throat for 3 days and I tried everything, but this actually worked and allowed me to finally get a good night's sleep. THANK YOU!!"

[YEA]  03/31/2006: Lawrence from Bartlesville, OK writes: "I am a singer and a sore throat can kill a career. When I get one, one of the best remedies is to boil a little water, add beef bouillon granules and shake in cayenne pepper. Drink it as hot as you can take it. It will soothe your throat and open up your nasal passages and let you go on with the show."

[YEA]  03/24/2006: Tom from Cleveland, OH writes: "THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! I have had a cold for 3 days now. Yesterday morning I developed a sore throat. The soreness didn't really bother me until later on in the day. I bought some throat lozenges. They didn't work at all as far as helping the soreness. I think they made it worse. My throat got so sore that I didn't even want to swallow. I "yahooed" natural cures and found this site. I tried the cayenne pepper after reading reviews from other people. I gave it a try. I had some cayenne pepper powder in my kitchen pantry. I popped the shaker top off and poured some into some warm water. I gargled with it for about 10 minutes. I even dipped a cotton swab in the solution and swabbed my tonsils, palette and the little "punching bag" in the back of my throat with the solution. I WAS AMAZED!!! I COULD NOT BELIEVE HOW BETTER MY THROAT FELT!!! I'm going back to the kitchen in about 15 minutes to gargle again with this solution. I honestly believe there is no need for toxic medications prescribed by doctors. I believe that the cures for most diseases come from the earth. In my opinion man made drugs are nothing but poison. The side effects of these drugs cause more harm than good. I rather eat raw garlic than take an antibiotic. I rather take hawthorn berries for high blood pressure than take a pill. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS SITE! TG--CLEVELAND"

[YEA]  03/24/2006: Sheri from Savannah, GA writes: "Hello, I am a registered nurse in Georgia, and I woke up 5 days ago with a sore throat. I blamed it on the ever present seasonal allergies, since all things outside is yellow with pine pollen. Unfortunately, the 103 degree fever led my nursing instinct to get out the flashlight and take a look inside. Yep, there was those white patches and red spots. I visited my primary care Dr, got the recommended antibiotic, and my throat is still as sore and red as it was when I started taking the medication, and my fever has not went down any. I stumbled on this site this evening hoping to help myself since "medication" is failing me, and low and behold if the cayenne pepper gargle worked perfect as described. I did not have any in the house other than a popular brand brown bag chili mix, so I ripped open the bag and stole the pepper out. I mixed up the rinse and it worked immediately. I felt my nose open at once. I am pleasantly impressed. I have felt horrible for 5 days, and have laid in the bed all day today, but now I feel good enough to send this e-mail so others will maybe find these success stories. Thank You so much."
