Relieve Gout Naturally with Apple Cider Vinegar Treatment

OK... Wrote a few days ago after my first gout attack. 2 TBLS ACV with 8 oz water in the morning... Wow! Stopped all red meat and was eating mainly rice with vegetables and fruit... Lots of fresh cherries. Pain has almost completely vanished... Walking correctly now. Now for the question... I read that for my blood type O I should eat red meat! I live in Texas and we frequently throw a carcass on the fire on weekends.. I do not want to go through that pain again... Should I start checking PH levels... Also love cabbage and brussel sprouts how does that figure in with a bout with gout? Would appreciate feedback... just starting to GET all this information.

Apple cider vinegar does work on gout!

I came on this site earlier because I woke up with a painful toe joint this morning. I read a comment about apple cider vinegar being used internally and externally and lo and behold this afternoon I am able to walk without any pain!! Thank you!

What a great product ACV is, I always have a bottle in the cupboard, I had Gout in my left foot 2 days ago and looked up remedies here on Earth Clinic and the top remedy is ACV, I immediately took 2 tablespoons in half a glass of water and within a few hours the pain was gone, when I woke the next day I could stand on my foot and no pain, I then took 2 more tablespoons in water just in case and it has not returned, if you have had Gout you will know how quickly it comes on and how painful it is. Earth Clinic is a wonderful site with so many great remedies and contributors. Art, Rob, Mama, Bill, etc. all helpful people.

Just want to thank this site for the info. I have had Gout for 7 yrs. Blood test show high uric acid but never had attack. Recently my ankles and hips have started to hurt really bad. They put me on Allopurinol and the pain got way worse. I couldn't walk. With in about 2 hours of taking about 4 tablespoons of ACV pain was a ton better. 3 days later of doing 2 tablespoons of ACV 2-3 times a day my pain is about 80% better. I think my joints are damaged and are going to take some time to heal. BUT I CAN SLEEP woot!!! Thanks again

Well, I just wanted to report my results for acv for gout. I took the Apple cider vinegar with water, 4 times on Friday, and my foot was better on Saturday... Didnt take it as much on Saturday, and the pain was back but nearly as bad on Sunday. Continued to take the SCV and water 2-3 times a day and it is Wednesday and the pain is about 90% gone. Will continue to drink the ACV until it is 100%. Thanks for the great advice, I am glad someone directed me to this this site.

I read this thread two days ago after my second bout with gout. The next day I tried the Apple Cider, within four hours I started to feel relief. This is the best natural cure I have ever tried, it is a miracle. Still a little sore but I can sleep without pain! I'm adding apple cider vinegar to my my daily regimine. By the way, it's better mixed with about 4 oz of juice.

Tony from Puyallup. Put a little salt in your ACV concoction. It makes it pleasant to drink. I take it every day at least 2 times. It has made my aches and pains go away since it's good for so, so many things other than gout.

Happy I came across this site. I've had gout attacks before in the last two years. However, all I did was stay off my foot and drank a lot of water and felt better in 24 hrs.

However, I had an attack 4 days ago, and drinking water did nothing. Read the comments on this page today and thought I would give ACV a try. Bought a jug of Heinz ACV at Safeway, took some of that with baking soda and honey, ate some blueberries, strawberries, and grapes about an hour ago and I cannot believe the difference.

Thank God I found this site as I thought I would be calling in sick to work tomorrow. Now I won't have to... Thanks to all for your posts.

On friday I could feel a gout attack coming and I did some web surfing for a home cure and stumbled on earth clinic and found a remedy for gout using acv. By saturday I could barely walk. I started taking 2 tbs avc with 8 oz of water every three hours by sunday morning I felt 100%. This actually works. I am so happy. Thank you.

I tried Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) for Gout after a long week of severe suffering during my first attack. I was also taking heavy doses of Ibuprofen at the time, and the first attack lasted about two weeks, so I was not too conviced, but I kept some organic ACV in the cabinet just in case since then.

I'm glad I did.

Another attack, but this time I started taking a shot glass of ACV with a glass of water with baking soda dissolved in it - to prevent any tooth degredation - several times a day, including during the night when I got up to use the toilet. I also took a normal dose of Ibuprofen with the first dose of ACV, but did not need it after that. All the same symptoms are there, but GREATLY reduced to a quite bearable level.

I've just added some Black Cherry Extract and a pinch of Celery Seed and Seltzer Water with the Baking Soda and ACV, to make a strange sort of soda-pop that is not too bad. I read about Celery Seed and Black Cherries on this site, so I figured I will give it a try.

The interesting thing is that a few days just before this attack I was craving Dr Brown's Cel-Ray Soda of all things, so I wonder if my body was trying to tell me something.

Anyway - My vote goes for Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) for Gout.

I have been suffering from gout for some time now and a friend had recommended this site and told me I might find the cure for this ailment. I'm currently taking allopurinol and/or colchicine but tonight I tried the ACV when I read it here that it worked for so many gout sufferers. And I can't believe that just after a couple of hours of taking the 'ACV potion' I thought I felt some improvement already. The pain had diminished some how. Thanks for your posts!!!

Last Saturday I attended a church function, dressed really pretty, high heeled shoes, etc. Woke up Sunday morning around 4:30 with the worse bout of gout I have ever experienced. Had to attend church on Sunday with really ugly shoes!!! For two days I received phone calls from church members telling me what to take and what to do.

Finally, today around 5:00pm I went on-line and accidently found your website and read all of the comments on Apple Cider Vinegar. I immediately "hobbled" downstairs to my pantry and there it sat, staring me in the face. I took two tablespoons of the ACV and one hour later, I asked myself, is it my imagination or am I really feeling less pain? Some of the pain had left after taking the ACV. Thank you so much contributors regarding the ACV. You have helped me through this crises. God bless each of you.

Just so you know... It HAS to be the raw, organic, unfiltered ACV with "mother". Could you possibly have bought the filtered or "clear" ACV? If so... that offers absolutely NO nutritional value, and lacks the anti-imflamitory properties you need.

Hi everyone! I just wanted to share my experience with my recurring gout. I had my first gout attack 3 years ago and it was horrible. I could barely move. I was embarrased that for a guy who works out at the gym a lot I got this. Anyways, this year I had a few gout attacks back to back and I started to take Allipurinol 300 mg. It does not work for me. Thanks God I stumbled over this site. It was 7:00 am I was reading all the reviews. At 9:00 am I wen with my son and bought two bottles of Apple Cider Vinegar with "The Mother" from Whole Foods. I drunk 8oz. of water with 2 tablespoons of ACV and felt better within 2-3 hours. Then I took at lunch time and before bed the same amount. Now I woke up the next day without ANY PAIN whatsoever. WOW. Thank you guys for sharing this secret. I was almost sure that I will have to live with this pain for my entire life. Not anymore.

Everyone should try this remedy. I have a history of gout in my family. My grandfather had it and my father almost had it. I write almost, because he managed to get rid of it. And you know how? With ACV. My father was on a strict diet, took ACV combined with intense workouts and he is gout free more than 30 years now. That's what I'm planning to do as well combined with my daily dose of ACV. All the best.

Reporting in again, and I TRULY wish I had better news to report. I have tried consistent/heavy doses of organic ACV with "The mother" and honey, natural cherry juice extract, uric acid-reducing capsules, baking soda in water, garlic tablets, no booze - you name it. My big right toe is still swollen, stiff and sore, although not as bad as it was. It almost seems like it's just playing out on its own, regardless of the other stuff I'm taking. FRUSTRATING! Although here's a thought I got with this: "It's like your toe is a tick, engorged with blood, nearly ready to pop - throbbing, painful, non-stop. Or... it's like some evil tiny gnome with a little knife, stabbing & twisting his little blade into your toe, over and over and over again."

Hi. The ACV worked for me after I found the unpasturized natural kind. The pain went away but I still have what feels like a golf ball under 3 of my toes when I walk-it's just swelled up, not painful. Anyone know how to get that to go away?

I found this site last week as I was searching for something that would help my husband with his gout. He had tried tart cherry juice and alfalfa which didn't seem to help as his gout attacks were coming on quicker with more pain and lasting longer each time. He takes allapurinol too. I noticed that many took ACV and so I bought some with the mother.

My husband decided to start out with a low dose to make sure he would tolerate it. He took 1 tablespoon in a glass of water in the evening. Within 3 days, the gout attack was gone. He is going to continue taking it every day. I tried to take ACV for shingles nerve pain but couldn't stand the taste. Another submitter suggested using 2 packets of dry lemon and 2 packets of stevia in glass of water with the ACV. It tastes so much better that I am going to be taking ACV every day too. Thank you to all on this site for your wonderful suggestions!

Well I spent the early hours of last night reading all of your opinions and feedback..... I had been awakened by an excruciating pain in my Rt big toe joint, with swelling, redness, hot to touch; I was sure I had injured it somehow. Then it hit me... Gout. I've treated many many patients with gout who were driven to the ER with the pain. They were always treated the same way, medications (Allopurinol, corticosteroids, ibuprofen), fluids and diet restrictions. It seems, as a 50 yo women going through menopause, my symptoms were spot on. I limped down the hall, took the Apple Cider Vinegar in hot water with tea. (Yes it was in the pantry) Shockingly, by morning I was 80% better and able to work. I will share this gem with my patients. It's truly the best response I've ever heard of, and experienced, and it's natural.

I know what works for one person may not for another, but it's worth a try!

Take care all
