Apple Cider Vinegar for a Bladder Infection
I tried 1 tb of ACV in a cup of herbal hot tea. It tasted great and I was amazed at how fast it worked, almost immediately. I followed up with 1 cup in a bath of shallow water.....another home run......! try it it really works.

Apple Cider Vinegar for a Bladder Infection
This remedy WORKS!!! I woke in the middle of the night with pain when urinating. I immediately knew what it was. I’ve come to EC many times over the years for help so this is where I turned to first. I was hoping it worked because I had an event to attend. I immediately took 1 TBSP in water. After 15 minutes I felt better. 45 minutes later another dose, then twice more, each 45 minutes apart. I feel mostly normal. Good enough to attend my events. I will continue the ACV for at least 2 weeks. Thank you to everyone for their input.

My husband is an avid user of Apple Cider Vinegar and is always trying to get me to use it. I had a wicked uti infection the last couple of days and was miserable. He came upon this site. I tried it and am already feeling the relief. Just a note. If you are taking acv, use a straw because the acidity can damage your teeth. I’m so excited to find this cure.

Apple Cider Vinegar for Bladder Infections
Yay! ACV absolutely works every time for me and even once for a toothache. I also love what it does for my faceð

Hi there,
I had the UTI coming on and took ACV. I know it works as I have used before with great success. However it does take awhile to get into your system and I needed to pee now! I had and empty small spray bottle filled equal measure of ACV and water and sprayed, yes sprayed down there and oh the relief was instant. I used it each time I needed the bathroom and no pain. It was quick and easy no sitting around in sitz baths. Simply the best treatment. No pain instant relief!

Started my fifth episode of cystitis in the early hours of Sunday morning and was desperate for help by 9am! Having found many recommendations on this website I tried the apple cider vinegar and got relief almost immediately! Starting with two tablespoons in a large glass of water and then reducing to a couple of teaspoons throughout the day. In all I probably took about six glasses of this mixture, sipping all day. Twenty four hours later my symptoms had completely cleared, but I have continued to sip a weak solution of cider vinegar and water all day today just to make sure the symptoms have gone. I cannot believe this has worked so well. Cranberry and over the counter remedies have not worked in the past and I have always had to resort to antibiotics. I am so grateful. Thank you.

Was up most of the night with a bladder infection: strong pain, powerful urge to pee every 10 minutes or so with little to show for it, urine clear, pain did not go away even while lying down. In the morning, took 2 teaspoons of apple cider vinegar (even without the mother, works just fine) in a small glass of alkaline water. After 10 minutes the pain began to subside. After half an hour took another tablespoon in water: an hour later, drank another tablespoon straight then washed it down with water. Just took a fourth tablespoon in water but the pain has already disappeared, I'm back to peeing once every 3 hours with no difficulty whatsoever. No drugs, no antibiotics, no echinacea, no painkillers. Can't recommend apple vinegar enough! I'll continue taking it for several days just to make sure but I'm already a happy puppy.
