Re: Red Pepper for sore throats: I went to bed early Friday But barely slept, my throat was so inflamed. Saturday I called my doctor,who has no hours but called a prescription of antibiotics to the pharmacy. While waiting for my hubby to get back with the meds I clear out the sinus with my usual saline rinse then gargled with some more warm salt water . My throat was bleeding. I NEEDED something for this NOW. To kill time I googled home remedies. It was So OUTRAGEOUS maybe it would help. DID IT EVER ! ! Within 20 minutes my throat was feeling improved. Gargled every visit to the bathroom ..... and not going to buy chloroseptic spray again. Today (Monday) I'm at work telling EVERYONE about this remedy.

I had been battling a sore throat for two days (Thursday and Friday). On Friday, I decided to research some home remedies for a sore throat online and I came across the cayenne pepper suggestion. Since I knew I had some of this at home, I thought I would give it a try. Reading the other testimonials also sold me. I gargled using a 4 ounce glass of warm water and cayenne pepper (I used 1/4 teaspoon). I actually went to lie down about 9:00 P.M. I got up about midnight, my throat felt a little better but I decided to gargle again. By the time I woke up this morning, about 9:00 A.M., my sore throat was gone! This really does work.

I was doubtful when I read the "cure". However, the sore throat started the day before our anniversary and I didn't want to miss our big day. And the throat was getting more sore as the hours went by. Thought what the heck do I have to lose .... I am very happy to say that it would beautifully. I gargled on and off for several hours before I went to bed. Got up the next morning and the sore throat was gone!!

It really works !I have been outside all day . I noticed my throat was hurting a little. I saw the web site ,so I tried the cheyenne about one teaspoon with warm water. It was hard to do, but now for the time my throat doesn't hurt, Thank you!

I too tried the cayenne cocktail and too my surprise i felt much better the next morning, the cayenne tasted kind of eh! so i went ahead and drank the 1/2 teaspoon with warm water and today i went ahead and added more about a 1 1/2 tablespoon to a little bit of shrimp broth and am slowly sipping it....................thanks Nature is so wonderful --Keep Up The Good work!!!! I encourage all those that have all those family home remedies to keep sharing God Bless And To All A Great And Healthy New Year.......

If I ever get an infection, it is ALWAYS in my throat. My glands swell up, I can't swallow, the pain makes me utterly miserable. However, a search on google showed up this site and I am so glad I tried it. I started at 8 am, it is now 10.30amand having gargled about half a teaspoon in a glass of water every 15 minutes, the pain has definitely diminished and my glands feel smaller. Fantastic. Thank you.

I'm a 17 year old from California, and my entire family has been coming down with some pretty nasty sickness. My grandfather owns a family run business, so when one uncle got it, so did my grandfather, my dad, and everyone else that works there. They all got sore throats the first few days which led to just generic sickness. Stomach feels bad, coughing, dizziness. I had so far been free of the plague until yesterday night when my throat began feeling sore. I knew what was coming but ignored it until the morning. This morning I woke up with terrible pain in my throat, it felt swollen, and it hurt to swallow. I immediately jumped on google for sore throat cures and your remedy came up. It worked perfectly after 4 gargles over about an hour. I just took a small cup and lined the bottom with cayenne and filled the rest with warm water, gargling as long as I could then swallowing a little bit afterwards. After the first time I felt significantly better, and my throat was only a little raw, but after the 2nd time it went away completely! I did it a couple more times for good measure and I'm now doing it periodically just to be sure it doesn't come back. What a great cure!!! Although I still feel semi-sick I no longer have a sore throat which was the worst of it. I'll recommend this cure, and this site, to everyone.

so far in like 5 minutes...... it has really stopped the sore throat!!!!!!!!!! :)

Wow! That cayenne pepper thing really works. I've gargled three times this morning and already there is a marked improvement in my throat and I'm not coughing as much. I must give a WARNING though...I didn't know the quantities to start with so used a teaspoon full in one mug of water and it damn nearly blew my head off!!! A quarter of a teaspoon is quite enough! Good stuff though.

Hi, i must say that i am astounded at the effectiveness of this concoction.i have been suffering from a very very sore throat since yesterday, i was awake all last night because of the pain .this morning i was so fed up of taking painkillers that i went to the gp very very early 9.30 hoping to see a doctor and a magical cure. AS usual i was greeted by a very scary looking receptionist with a big patronizing smile who said "no more appointments left for today unfortunately you'll have to come back tomorrow"in a tone of voice you would have to be crazy to challenge.so i just shook my head in agreement vigorously and made hasty return to my flat back to my misery.Then all of a sudden i thought why not google it? And i came upon this cure. GUESS WHAT? it really really works .i was afraid to try it at first obviously i mean a chili dissolved in water gargle on a sore throat? That sounded so crazy that i was throwing insults at the computer for being insensitive and stupid. Then after searching and suffering and only finding the only other usual alternatives like water and salt or lemon and water i decided to give it a try .i mean at that point i had nothing to lose i was already on my death bed. so i got a glass of warm water and mixed a teaspoon of chili in it and gargled with that every 15 mins until it finished .that was around 12oclock today its now about four in the afternoon i have just had a nice meal-trust me that's a big accomplishment after nearly two days of not being able to swallow anything. I've looked in the mirror as well at my throat, it was looking very very red this morning with thick white coatings of pus. now its nearly returned back to its pinkish purplish hue and the white stuff is less as well so this gargle gets an absolute 10/10 from me

Cayenne pepper: soreness of throat = cleared.

I TRIED THIS AND INSTANTLY IT TOOK AWAY THE SORENESS AND SCRATCHY THROAT I ALSO SWALLOWED SOME HONEY WITH THE PEPPER SPRINKLED ON TOP AND IT HELPED CUT LOOSE ALL THE STUFF IN MY THROAT I WILL USE THIS METHOD FROM NOW ON I'M GLAD I LOOKED THIS UP

Guys I have to tell you, I HATE, LOATHE and DESPISE anything that leaves that burning sensation in my mouth. But I had a sore throat so bad today that I couldn't talk or swallow my own saliva. I was desperate! I came on the internet and found this remedy. I prefer to use home natural remedies when I can---well let me just say, that this remedy has got to be one of the nastiest ones! BUT, BY GOD IT WORKS!!!! Within 15 minutes I was able to talk. I have done it twice this past 1/2 hour and it still hurts a bit when I swallow, but hey at least I can swallow! I am completely sold on this one! Next sign of scratchy throat, I am grabbing my cayenne pepper!! Thank you so much for having this on here and all the positive feedback---that's what encouraged me to try it!!

I just tried this remedy after waking up with a major sore throat. I'm still shocked that it worked. I love hot food but all I wanted was relief, and that's what I got. I had tried hot tea, honey, lemon, vitamins a&c, and homemade chicken noodle soup, but nothing even slightly alleviated the soreness like the cayenne. Five minutes until the next gargle. Thank you to the guinea pigs who dared to try this first.
