Effective Natural UTI Remedies for Quick Relief

One spoon of acv 3 times a day will help me to relieve my urinary tract infection. Then after 3 days of using it, i noticed that my urine was clear .cleared my urinary tract infection. its amazing.

I had a bladder infection which came on suddenly and servearly, I went on the web and found a feedbach of a woman. I immediately tried it whith the ACV I have in my pantry bought in supermarket and after 2 glasses it was gone, no trace of it back. Being desperate I put a shot glas of vinegar in a 8 ounce water glas and gulped it, another in half an hour. Gone. I use this vinegar in my salad dressing so I don't find it discusting. Also my allergies have dissappeared and my reflux problems seem to have gone. I since have taken a glas mid morning and mid afternoon. Regards Valtrude

ACV and my bladder infection: In the past I had tried ACV for an ulcer and it significantly eased the pain. I have recently become more frequent in the number of bladder infections I was getting, from maybe one a year to 3 or 4. This stuff is amazing. I just wonder what all else this stuff can do for people that we don't even know yet. I used about 2 tablesponns to a 12oz bottle of water. Feel sooo much better. To urinate is a good thing :) This website is awesome Thanks so much.

OMG! I had both hips replaced six months ago, and my physician told me "if you get a UTI (urinary tract infection), you need to get it treated ASAP because there is a strong possibility the infection could spread to your hip joints". What do I wake up with Thursday? A severe UTI, including blood and blood clots in my urine. As an RN, I know when I'm in trouble, and I knew exactly what I had to do -- get to my doctor. But my doctor was gone until Monday. So I figured I'd try something a patient had shared with me years ago, but I pooh-poohed it (because I knew better, after all, I was part of the medical community). So I buy my organic, unfiltered, apple cider vinegar and put it in water just like everyone is saying to do. Not immediate results, but I liked what was happening as I peed more and more clear urine and the horrible urgency and stinging was going away. This is Saturday, and I have absolutely no trace of any infection (even by urine dipstick, which is used in most medical offices). Thanks everyone for your honesty and methods. I truly believe you saved me from having further infection in my body, and probably around my hip prosthetics. LOVE YOU ALL!

I GOT UTI/BLADDER INFECTION RELIEF USING APPLE CIDER VINEGAR! I added 2-4 tbls, of ACV to 8 oz., cold filtered water and felt relief after drinking the concoction! It took about 16 hours before I felt a lot better! The problem I had is that the mixture was so awful tasting that I got pretty severe nausea while drinking it! I even threw up a little from it! IT'S THAT GROSS!!! Next time I am going to drink a teaspoon of ACV straight up at the very first signs of possible infection.

Just a little feedback on the ACV remedy to post on the site.

I used ACV to manage the pain from my urinary tract infection (not cure the actual infection).

I had a urinary tract infection (UTI) for about three days. On the third day I was in excruciating pain. I went to the doctor and was given a course of antibiotics and started taking them right away. Unfortunately the antibiotics, although killing off the bacteria, do not help to manage the pain and discomfort in the meantime. Plus, using over the counter remedies to manage the symptoms, such as the Ural sachets, is not an option as they prevent the antibiotics from working.

I had heard ACV helped many women suffering from thrush infections feel better, but was sceptical. Still, in total desperation and unbearable pain, I added two cups of white vinegar (as this was all I had on hand) to a warm, ankle-deep bath. The white vinegar helped a tiny bit. It was enough to help me hobble down the road to pick up some ACV. Again, I added two cups to a warm, ankle-deep bath and sat in it for about half an hour.

The relief! I have no more soreness or burning! I still feel like I desperately need to pee (which is a symptom of the UTI), but I suppose the antibiotics will help that. ACV worked so well in managing my UTI symptoms - I have no idea what I would have done without it. I am so pleased now that the pain has gone and I can concentrate on other things again. I will definitely tell my friends about this one. I also plan to keep a bottle of ACV in the first aid kit for times when I may need it.

Oh my God where do I began. Like many of you I have had a bladder infection also known as UTI and it was so bad on Sunday 01/11/09 I work up and had to urinate and it was filled with blood. I had this now for 2 weeks and I have tried everything. I found this website and saw the testimonials on ACV and I rushed to the store in alot of pain and I came home put to tablespoons in a bottle of 8oz water and when I say I immediatly felt relief of the pain and pressure i couldn't beleive it. I had only drank a half bottle of it and I could already start to feel the difference. This really works. I didn't have medical insurance, and if I could give any woman any advice to help them this is most definelty a perfect remedy for bladder infection and UTI. Please try this it will help you and you too will be amazed. Thank God for this website, Thank God!

I woke up this morning with a really bad bladder infection. I looked up home remedies for a UTI and came across this site. I took a shot glass and poured ACV from Whole Foods in it and then poured that into a water bottle full of cold water. I then chugged the whole thing and ate a few fresh strawberries to get the taste out of my mouth! Anyways, within 20min I already felt better and went back to sleep. I woke up two hours later and had no bladder pain at all! When I urinated the pain was completely gone. Thank you SO much everyone! I will now be drinking ACV everyday after reading this site and experiencing the benefits first hand! God Bless all of you!

Best Wishes,

To those of you who commented that you soaked in a tub with a solution of ACV because of a urinary infection, and another who used a cotton ball and applied the ACV that way, I have done something simpler that worked almost immediately (for females).

For a few years, I was getting terribly painful urinary infections. I would need medication and I would be off work for at least 3 days and in pain for at least a week. I am talking screaming pain here. It was horrible.

I woke up in the middle of the night with another infection and knew that I would need to go to Emergency. I did not want to wake my husband up for another hour or two so he could take me to Emergency and go straight to work. So in desperation, I went to my books to see if there was anything I could do to relieve the pain temporarily. In a book on Water Therapy, I found instructions for an ACV/water douche. Fortunately, I had a set as part of a hot water bottle kit.

I tried it; the burning pain left almost instantly and I fell asleep. In the morning, the infection was completely gone. I didn't even have discomfort. I have not had a urinary infection since then (more than 30 years). At the first sign, I use ACV solution. I take it in my first aid kit when I travel or go backpacking in the bush. It is remarkable. Under those circumstances, when I travel light, I just use a facecloth soaked in the warm solution.

You are right; ACV is probably the most amazing of all remedies.

My father began taking it with honey in his 50's and never had another cold despite the cold MidWest winters.

For about 2 yrs. I've been suffering from UTI's/Bladder Infections and most recently, Yeast Infections. I have been to the ER I don't know how many times, then I found a dr. that deals in that. I kept having UTI's and Bladder Infections and he kept prescribing my antiboitics, it got to the point where the antiboitics stopped working, I recently tried the ACV and I feel so much better! It really works. If I knew about this a long time ago it would of saved me a lot of trips to the ER. And I also love the added things it does for me, I have A TON of energy, my hair looks and feels a lot better, I went for a check-up last Monday and I lost 4 lbs. and I wasn't even trying. Trust me ladies, u should try the ACV!

I use to get bladder infections ALL the time years ago but stopped then for years and just woke up with one this morning! I was shocked! However, since this has been my favorite site for any ailments I quickly got on to look up what to do for a bladder infection even though I knew ACV would be one to use.

But one thing I saw was to eat lots of celery and cucumbers for the bladder infection. So this morning I drank a huge glass of water with ACV - Another plain glass of water, ate celery and cucs and drank lemon water AND I took marshmallow root which is suppose to be good for a bladder infection too. Then the rest of the day I drank lemon water and I am fine as I sit here and type this out! YAY!

As always - thank you Earth CLinic readers with your advice!

UPDATE: In my case, ACV worked very well both to kill a 4th recurring infection and then, on maintenence dose, to keep recurrance away (in spite of higher risks due to self catherderizing). As a matter of caution, I checked the kidney area daily while curing, by bouncing the wrists into the back side where the kidneys reside, assuring no pain developed and and also checked temperature; the warning is clear: Bladder infections, if treated ineffectively, can lead to kidney infections (requiring immediate professional emergency actions) and may lead to kidney failure and even shut-down!

I'm glad I found this site and thrilled that for me ACV works so well, considering a reply from Christina regarding Cipro.

I'm so glad I found your website!!! I used to get UTI's all the time... Cranberries never worked for me. I tried the Apple Cider Vinegar that I read about on this site and BINGO!!! Wow... why didn't I know about this 10 years ago? It would have saved me lots of money and time in the docs office!!! I'm a believer now! Thank you!

I had a problem with frequent UTI's due to bladder retention. Nothing ever suggested to me prevented them and I've tried everything. My Doctor even wanted to put me on a low dose daily antibiotics. A friend sent my this web site thank God! Felt a difference the first day! The first day I probably went a little overboard taking a straight shot of ACV then drinking 2tbs of ACV per glass of water all through out the day. Now I take a maintenance dose of 2TBS per glass of water three times per day. So far so good. I'll update if there are any changes.

Bladder infection (to the point of bleeding)

A lot of Water as well as cranberry juice (no sugars) mixed with Apple cider vinegar works very well, but you have to drink a lot of all of them. It was gone within 3-5 days. (If you are bleeding do this still, I've bled with the infection and this really helped me. Be persistent with it.)
