Take this dose 4 times a day, after meals and at bedtime, for 3 days in a row, then as needed. This eradicates even a stubborn case of Salmonella.

So I didn't try the acv again and suffered for a few more hours. I then came to after having the weirdest incoherent dreams, aches, and restless sleep. Actually read a few posts on here about ACV and decided to try it again. I only took a couple of cap-fulls of ACV just to be safe and was able to keep it down. I went to sleep. Woke up a few hours later and my stomach was settled about 57- 63% and didn't have the intense cramps or aches. It is the next day and I'm sitting on the toilet writing this, cramp free and for the most part ache free. Stomach is still doing what it wants. But I feel 87% better. (But am probably only like 78% in reality)
So moral of the story is twofold. Think twice about the weird-ass shrimp dish you're about to eat. And it should be known that for the ACV to work it needs to stay in your stomach. So if it comes up, give it some time and try it again or maybe try diluting it a little more. Don't write it off if you just can't keep it down. The first time. At least that's what I learned. Have fun guys.

My stomach sounded like a battlefield with loud booms going off every few minutes.
I couldn't sleep because of the discomfort, and it was about midnight when I desperately googled for something, anything, to feel better. Read about ACV here, and I took 2 tablespoons and went to sleep.
The next morning, fever was gone, bloated stomach gone, and my head felt clear again. My appetite came back and I could eat again.
Maybe I was at the tail end of the illness, or maybe ACV did the trick!

Notes: 1. I got it from oatmeal that tasted funny, but I ate it for breakfast anyway a day after making it and leaving it out on the counter. So I knew for certain the cause. 2. I took the ACV within 2 and a half hours of exposure, about 1/2 hour after the first tossing of the cookies.

If i want the Colloidal silver to be more effective, I add 3-6 drops of DMSO with it.

I started on Activated Charcoal about 3 days ago. Added ACV and Turmeric yesterday. This is my second day on all and it's still bad. As soon as I get up it starts.
I took 2 T of ACV in the morning straight. (yesterday too)
Then today I've taken (4) caps of Turmeric (500 mg) every hour for the last (3) hours and
(3) caps of Activated Charcoal (280 mg each) every hour for the last (3) hours. These are taken 30 minutes apart. So Turmeric at the top of the hour and Charcoal at the bottom of the hour.
I'm drinking lots of water and the last couple of bowel movements were basically all water.
So, I think it's almost stopped for today, but I need help so it doesn't start up again tomorrow.
PS. I do not have any other symptoms other than the diarrhea.

The second time I got food poisoning and I actually thought about that $3000 bill and Google remedies for food poisoning. And there it was, the #1 remedy Apple Cider Vinegar, I was experiencing diarrhea, vomiting while in excruciating pain. I didn't know how much cider to take I was in so much pain I just took the bottle and took a couple of swigs. Within three seconds I was really vomiting but, I felt so much better... I had to repeat that process two more times. But from that point on I knew that I was being cured of my food poisoning without a $3000 bill. I am a nutritionist and in my defense the first time I had food poisoning and I was out of town and didn't have my arsenal that I do at home. It really works!

I use Arsenicum Album 6X from the homeopathy section at the healthfood store at the first sign of trouble every hour or so. It not immediate but usually is over with in 8 hours as opposed to 3 days.

While food poisoning will often resolve after a day or so of misery, occasionally, it can last for days or more, causing great discomfort and lost time at work or school.
Symptoms of food poisoning can include stomach pain and cramping, vomiting, diarrhea, and bloody stools. Symptoms can also include dizziness, chills, fever, and headache. If vomiting and diarrhea are severe, dehydration may result, which sometimes requires medical attention.
The sooner you treat your food poisoning with natural remedies, the better. If one remedy does not seem to be effective for you, there are others that you can choose from.
Apple cider vinegar is usually fast-acting and effective for food poisoning. Distilled white vinegar is a suitable substitute if you do not have apple cider vinegar on hand. You will find more detailed information about this remedy on this page.
Watch Earth Clinic's video to learn how we've used ACV for over twenty years to cure food poisoning.
One Earth Clinic reader has stopped food poisoning (bad chicken) by taking a shot (at least 1/8th cup or 2 TBLSP) of straight apple cider vinegar as soon as her stomach started to feel queasy.
She writes, “It burned going down, but was remarkable in stopping my queasy stomach within 5 minutes. I am certain I did not get food poisoning because the apple cider vinegar quickly destroyed the bacteria in my colon and stomach. Amazing!”
We suggest you drink straight apple cider vinegar when you feel you might have food poisoning. Better yet, take it before going to a barbeque or any event where the food has been sitting around for a while.
Dosage: In the case of food poisoning, we recommend pasteurized Apple Cider Vinegar as it is extremely strong. Grocery stores will carry at least one, if not more, commercial brands of ACV. Heinz is a good brand, but any will do. DO NOT DILUTE IT. However, be prepared for your throat and stomach to burn!
Activated charcoal attracts poisons and binds with them, rendering them inactive. Activated charcoal powder can be taken as a powder, mixed with water, or in capsule or tablet form. A typical dose is 1-4 capsules/tablets (equal to about ¼ -1 teaspoon charcoal powder.) This dose can be repeated after 30 minutes and then hourly if symptoms persist.
Activated charcoal should be taken with plenty of water to avoid constipation.
A teaspoon of colloidal silver is a tasteless and simple remedy to resolve food poisoning from various bacteria.
Colloidal silver can be taken hourly until the symptoms resolve. It can be taken in water or juice or by itself.
Turmeric works against many bacteria and is also a wonderful remedy for diarrhea. You can take turmeric in capsules or mix some into water or milk. A common dosage is four capsules or one teaspoon of turmeric. Turmeric should always be taken with plenty of water; it can be constipating for some.
Garlic is a powerful antibacterial herb. For food poisoning, garlic can be taken in gel caps or raw form. Try 4-6 capsules of garlic or one clove of garlic, minced. To get it down, you can mix it with some honey. The dose can be repeated after an hour.
Food poisoning is stressful to the body. If you have lost a lot of fluids from vomiting and diarrhea, you will need to replace the fluids and electrolytes. Water, herbal teas, juices, and soups are good sources of fluids. Sports drinks usually contain electrolytes. Bananas and blackstrap molasses also contain significant potassium and magnesium. For most people pinch of extra salt (another electrolyte) can be added to food, soups, or water to restore sodium to the body.
Taking probiotics in the form of kefir, yogurt, or a supplement will help your digestive system regain balance after food poisoning.
Re-introduce foods slowly and gently back into your diet so that healing can take place. Bananas, rice, yogurt, applesauce, toast, and oatmeal are gentle foods to get you started. Avoid spicy foods and greasy foods.
If you have had a recent bout of food poisoning, you will be especially careful to prevent it from happening again. Certainly, making sure food is properly prepared at home is important. But even with diligence at home, you never know when it will strike if you are eating out or traveling.
Keep apple cider vinegar capsules, garlic capsules, or activated charcoal tablets in your purse, backpack, or car. Take one before and after a meal that you are not sure about. You will also be ready for the unexpected even if you don’t remember to take a preventative dose.
