Cure Strep Throat
HOT APPLE CIDER VINEGAR AND CAYENNE
[YEA] 12/26/2006: Nafa from Tampa, FL writes: "I've been bugged with a sore throat/strep for a little while now and being that it was Christmas holiday all the doctors were closed. I came across your website and the this idea and ran out to the only open market to get some ACV and Cayenne and then rushed home to try it immediately. So far so good--it definitely has killed some of the pain after one treatment. I made a tea of it with hot water, pepper, and ACV (though I upped it to 10 dashes of pepper as I'm a little too used to spicy food). I also bought some fresh garlic to try that route at the same time. Can't hurt to try both! :) Fingers crossed that continues to kill whatever is in there. Thanks so much for the tips!"

[YEA] 04/11/2006: Shay from Jupiter, FL writes: "I went online and searched everywhere for remedies for a sore throat. At the time I was unaware it was strep throat. I stumbled upon this web site and started to read about the "miracles" of ACV. At first I thought, what kind of cult followers are these? In the end I was desperate and needed some relief now since my doctor appt. wasn't till the next day at noon. I made a few cups of ACV and Cayenne pepper with honey that afternoon and evening. Less than 24 hrs later my throat pain was gone and the antibiotic the Doctor prescribed wasn't even in my system long enough to work that fast. Within 2 days of the initial symptoms of strep, I felt like I had nothing wrong with me. I am a believer of AVC and Cayenne pepper and have decided to add it to my life on an everyday basis. Anything that gave me that much relief and energy so fast and had no long ugly pharmaceutical name behind it, must be good for me. Now the only problem I have is trying to get my 4yr old to take it. Any suggestions? Thank you Earth Clinic for life long advice!"

I tried the cayenne recipe, the saltwater gargle and the pickle juice out of all of them the lemon juice and honey was the only thing that actually made some difference. However I didn't actually use tea, I just used hot water. I found if I just gurgled a bit as well it would instantly lower the swallowing pain by half I was amazed! I had one cup already I'm not sure that it would completely go away but i think it would be enough to help you fall asleep as trying to sleep with a strep throat doesn't work to well. Thanks a bunch for the recipe, this page is book marked too... next on my list is the cold shower therapy"

[YEA] Frank from Palm Beach FL writes: "I have treated a number of sore and strep throats and loss of voice; painting iodine on the outside of the throat clears all within 24 hours. Iodine absorbs into the skin in about 6 hours. Also works for ear problems and swollen glands."

10/15/2007: RJ from Nashua, New England writes: "I was surprised to learn that latent Strep. from Strep. throat can be dormant for years. Strep., not only linked with heart problems, Scarlet Fever or Rheumatic Fever, joint pain, etc., also has the capability to produce a ANA. It's important for a physician to differentiate a ANA from Lupus, or as a secondary symptom of dormant/latent Strep. Check w/physicians re: antibiotics for differentiation. Old days, Scarlett Fever/Rheumatic Fever was treated very different. Old days, treatments were different - like written in the older version of The Velveteen Rabbit. Rubella has similar difficulties - typical MMR shots cause problems for quite a few people. So always keep contact w/your physician!"

[YEA] 03/17/2008: Jason H. from Paradise Valley, AZ writes: "I had strep throat last week and it was getting pretty bad with the pain. I tried gargling with ACV, drinking it with water, honey, cayenne pepper, etc. I even tried Amoxicillin from the doctor. Nothing helped me...until I tried Oil of Oregano. On Wednesday night, I took a couple doses and by Thursday morning, the pain was gone. Now, a week later, the strep is totally cleared. For me, this was the cure for my Strep. Oil of Oregano is great!"

[YEA] 01/22/2007: Harold from Virginia Beach, VA writes: "I don't know if you consider this a natural remedy or not, but oil of oregano has stopped strep-like sore throats very quickly for me and my wife. If it appears to be full-blown strep, I soak a cotton swab in oil of oregano and dab it directly on the inflamed area. If it's milder I can often place about 6 drops under my tongue and hold them until the mouth fills with saliva. I then gargle a bit to coat the back of the throat and swallow. The oil has a powerful burning taste but it has come through for us many times."

[YEA] 03/04/2007: Johnny from Glendale, California writes: "Salt and Water (Remedy): I have a sore throat remedy that i have used for many years now. It gradually reduces strep throat illnesses almost 100 percent of the time. I take one glass of water and i put an amount of salt in it (The amount of salt should be enough to taste like saltwater from a beach). I then gargle it for a couple of minutes, and I repeat the process often. You should see major results after the first time you do it, and complete recovery after a couple of days."

STEAMING, SAGE AND MANUKA HONEY TEA
[YEA] 09/12/2008: Shino from Auckland, New Zealand writes: "i woke up in the middle of the night with such a sore throat i couldnt swallow my own saliva. i thought i was going to die the pain was intensifying so quickly...anyway, i think its strep throat (i have a dry cough, my ears and joints are also sore and i feel like i have a slight fever). this is different to your regular mucous-cough or flu-sore throat, where anything like cayenne pepper or vinager seems to only temporarily relieve it, and actually aggravate it slightly...
my partner came up with two remedies that helped ease the pain so that i could swallow and even doze off for a bit. the most helpful was making up a steam bowl. half fill a large bowl with boiling water and squeeze 1 or 2 lemons and 2 tablespoons of honey. place on table where you can sit with your head over it, and drape a towel over your head, covering the whole bowl so that you`ve got a mini sauna for your head. breathe the vapours in through your mouth. keep going until the steam stops - even if it`s really hot! i could already feel a huge difference after a minute, being able to swallow without my whole body tensing up! by far the best.
im also sipping on sage and manuka honey tea (active) right now which is soothing and infinitely easier to drink than water right now - 2t sage which you get at the supermarket and 2t honey and brew and strain it like tea.
if you are in desperate pain like i was last night, then letting some ice roll to the back of your mouth helps the pain to dull enough for it to be bearable for a temporary solution.
if you have a killer sore throat i am in total sympathy with you...i hope this helps"

I am so thankful to have this valuable resource for free!!! The most recent remedy that I tried was Tea Tree Oil for strep throat. I have had strep twice in my life. The first time I went to the doctor and got a prescription. It took about 3 days for the pain to subside enough for me to be able to eat. The second time I got strep was a month ago. I drank small doses of Tea Tree Oil several times a day and was able to swallow the next day with almost no tenderness. For me, Tea Tree Oil works miracles for strep."
