12-11-07 just had to let everyone know that my husband caught a cold around Dec 1. He immediately started taking all kinds of over the counter cold medicines. On 12-8 I woke up with the same cold I took Organic ACV, Honey(locally harvested), Lemon(my tree) and warm to hot water mixed three times that day. On 12-9 I did the same 3 times and on 12-10 my cold was gone. I will continue for a few more days to be sure the entire cold germ is gone. By the way my husband is still fighting his cold.

i've been sick with a really bad cold now for 4 days. i developed really bad nasal congestion and was having a lot of trouble breathing and swallowing because of all the mucous. i tend to get a little freaked out about things so i freaked out!! i came online to try to find a home remedy that i can use and i read about the wonders of apple cider vinegar so i literally ran across the street and bought myself a bottle of heinz apple cider vinegar and tried a couple of tbl spoons of the vinegar w/water and it cleared it right away. i'm glad i found this because i'm 1 month pregnant and i didn't wanna take any medications. i have a question though, i'm not a doctor so i don't actualy know if this woud be bad for my baby. would it?

Thanks for this remedy I tried it on my two daughters and i can tell you it truly worked. About 5 min. after they drank it both of them started to vomit. It releases the mucus that's was on their chest hence the vomiting. Now they are both coughing less and more active. Thumbs up Carrol, it worked wonders!!! ....Thanks again!

I am forever getting colds/sinus all year round, and each time they come around, I am usually out of action for a week. I told my chinese friend at work, who giggled, and said that he never gets a cold, or never gets sick for that matter, Anyhow, I asked him, does he take anything, which he informed me that for years he has been taking 1 teaspoon of double strength, unfiltered, ACD (with the mother), in a class of water, with a tea/s of Honey, and also a daily serving of spirulina, and this is why. I have been trying this for a few months now, and so far so good, no colds. It pays to listen to the wise chinese...

Here is the "cure what ails you" I give to my students, and they all use it and are back to the books/ or playing for the basketball team! It has an immediate effect for some:

3 TB Apple Cider Vinegar
3 TB lemon juice, fresh squeezed if possible
2 TB honey
You can add 1/4 tsp cayenne, and 1/4 tsp fresh ginger also if the first three ingredients don't work right away.

Mix in a little warmed water to liquefy, drink, and then rinse the teeth thoroughly. After the initial rush, you can drink warm tea, or water to settle the stomach. Most have an immediate reaction where they get their voice back and clear out the mucus in their nose and throat. Try it, all the kids do, and now even their moms drink it and swear by it! One mom even works at the medical clinic and uses my cure instead of the doctor's one.
