Top 5 Natural Remedies for Hot Flashes

Hi would just like to start by telling you I do appreciate reading this site - it is of great help especially with the ACV - I started four days ago and take 2 tbspn in glass of water when I get up and 2 tblspn before I go to bed. It has helped me 90 - 95% - I was waking up so hot and bothered, but now I don't. The only thing now is my body has been used to waking up I expect it will take a little while to get used to sleeping through the night, but will keep you posted in about a month's time.

ACV has worked wonders for me. It took a few days before symptoms started subsiding, and now, 3 weeks later, I have very few, mild hot flashes. Before, I was having several flashes each hour. I have been taking two tablespoons in the morning and evening in water. I have gone from being completed soaked in sweat at night, unable to sleep to sleeping through the night. If you are as desperate as I was, this is so worth a try! The more organic type really is more effective.

Unbelievable! I have tried all sorts of remedies, prescription and natural, acupuncture, etc. , with not much relief. The bioidentical estrogen patch worked for the hot flashes but made me so irritable I was unfit to live with!

I tried the ACV last night and this morning and I have had only a few very mild hot flashes since the first dosage -- perhaps 5 total all day when I was having that many in a single hour! I have been carrying a small towel with me for the past year!

What is it in the ACV that works? It is made less effective by alkaline water (to neutralize the acid a bit -- hard on the stomach! )? Is that what the baking soda does which I was reading about?

Very curious and very grateful! I hope it lasts!

I tried the AVC and so far I have not had any HF's! My hormones seem to be balanced. I should get a saliva test for my hormones to check them. I read saliva testing is more accurate than blood testing. I am reading a book called, "hormone balance made simple" by Dr. John Lee and I highly recommend it. He has other books as well. The next one I buy will be "What the Doctor's don't tell you about perimenopause". U might check into his books if U R going through perimenopause, menopause, etc. I am also going to buy me some black strap molasses. But back to the ACV. It seems to be helping me. A thumbs up for the ACV! Wishing you all the very best!

This website has saved my sanity. I started the ACV last night and my flashes are nearly gone! I got my first full nights sleep in over a year. I cannot thank you enough for sharing this with me. I am about to just put a straw in a bottle of ACV and keep it in my purse!!!

Wow, I am so happy I ran across this page while doing a search for hot flash home remedies. As I read I could not get over how many of us (women) have this problem. Mine started in 2006 after a hysterectomy I was then put on a low dose HRT. In 2008 I had my first heart attack at 45 just two weeks before my 46th birthday. My doctor took me off of them. Then the dreaded hot flashes and night sweats started. I was having them like every 15mins. I became very depressed and angry. I begged my heart doctor to let me get back on them he said ok and I did. Then heart attack #2 came in 7/09. Once again I was off of them and within no time at all BAM they were back. Was put back on a low low dose of HRT just to taper them out and by 12/09 I was back in the hospital with another heart attack. I have been HRT free since only trying Black Cohash only to find it doesn't work for me.

After reading about ACV and water I told my husband and we rushed out and got some last night. I am happy to say that after drinking 2tblsp with 8oz of flavored water (strawberry Kiwi) I am hot flash and night sweats free. So I want to thank all of you who share on here from the bottom of my heart. No more snapping at the hubby and getting some awesome sleep.

Well, think about it! For how many years have our elders been telling us that an apple a day keeps the doctor away? Well what is ACV but pure apple. The best you can get is _____ organic with the mother in it! You want the mother, thats the real good stuff. You can find _____ at health food stores! I started using ACV for the flu I had real bad and almost had to go to the hospital. ACV 2-3 times a day pulled me out of it. It is actually reccomended for many problems. Sinus, congestion, weight loss, acid reflux, ect... So I am not suprised to find it for hot flashes. I just take a big ol swig out of the bottle or use a shot glass and chase with lots of water. I still dont like the taste but I dont like to be on any medications that I dont have to be on. The taste doesnt last that long. I have had night flashes after I pee off and on for a couple of years and now they are coming in the day. For many years now after finding this site I have been reccomending it to many people for many things. My friends husband has gout.....ACV!

You can google ACV and find many sites that give you all the uses or you can just look here. Earthclinic has been my doctor now for a while. I always come here first before going to the doctor if I know what the problem is. It is an immune booster plain and simple and it wont hurt you! I can even take it on an empty stomach which is saying a lot.

wow. this totally works. I am so happy! I am suffering thru withdrawal from birth control pills at age 45, I was using them to make peri menopause more tollerable, and they helped but I do not want to live on synthetic hormones forever. I am also hypothyroid. So going off the pill has made me "dope sick" I feel like I am detoxing off of heroin. I want to go back on the pills so bad! I am really in a bad way. I have cramps but no period, I can't think straight and hot flashes so I can't sleep.

I tried the ACV and baking soda trick and hot flashes are GONE. I am taking nat'l progesterone and vitex, plus other stuff like vit E and omega oils to try to get my life back, it sucks to be a middle aged chick! but the AVC REALLY WORKS AMAZING

I read your comments yesterday and decided to try ACV and it really works! I have had hot flashes and night sweats for 5 years off and on. But when they come its every 20 minutes with a racing heart. I consider my flashes to be extreme! I took two tablespoons full with water at 12:45 yesterday, and only had one small one around three!! Around 8pm I had to take another treatment because they started again but very mild. After the next dose they went away again! I hope this lasts! Because I feel much better!

I started taking a tsp. of apple cider vinegar daily to see if it did anything. I finished a small bottle of unpasteurised vinegar and couldn't see any change, so I stopped taking it. A few days later, I started having mild hot flashes. I had had them before the ACV, and when they went away, I didn't make the connection. While I was taking the vinegar (about six months) I didn't have one hot flash. Now I'm travelling and didn't take any ACV for a couple weeks, and the flashes returned. Still mild, but annoying. I bought a bottle and after about 4 days, the flashes are gone again. It's very clear that ACV does the job.

I have endured hot flashes on a consistent basis for 10 years with no relief. I talked to my doctor to no avail. The sleepness nights, tiredness from lack of sleep and depression were starting to affect my psyche. I felt helpless. But just last week while searching for natural remedies for hot flashes, I found this website listing the ACV remedy and it is a miracle! I take morning and evening and my hot flashes have declined 90% and the ones I have are short and not severe. I am so thankful and although I wish I would have found it 10 years ago....this is a wonderful way to start the new year, with a new me!!

I am thrilled. Tried the Apple Cider vinegar formula for Hot Flashes. It truly cools your being. I was getting flashes twice an hour...Knowing I was going to my Ob-gyn soon I still could not wait until my appointment. Out of desparation, I came upon this wonderful site and tried the ACV, baking soda and water. It worked instantly. Its been three days without a flash. I mix 2 tablesps ACV, 1/4 teasp. baking soda, and 6 oz of warm water. Morning and Evening. Hope it keeps on working.

i tried the vinegar and water. what an amazing change. haven't had any hotflashes for a week now. i am actually cold now, which i don't mind. 2 months was long enough for me. wish i would have found this site before. thank you so much.

I've been getting hot flashes every hr lately and it has been hard to deal with. I came across your site and looked up hot flashesand was curious about the apple cider vinegar and water to help with hot flashes.

I tried it last night and slept for most of the night without sweating so I am convinced that it works! I mixed 2 TBSP with 12 ozs of water and drank it slowly. I know that you can't mention brands but I the one I used is organic and starts with a B. I found it at my health food store.

I hope this remedy helps others!

night sweats/hot flashes: I have been having hot flashes not too bad for 2 years. Then I got Mono and the hot flashes/night seats/all day sweats went to a new level. I did not sleep for more than 2 hours at a time. I happened upon this web site and decided to try ACV last night. 2 tablespoons in about 16-20 oz of water. I slept 12 hours last night no night sweats. I have had 2 mild ones in the last 6 hours since waking so I am going to drink some more. It is hard to take down at first, I had to add some sweetner.
