Ellen (Sydney, Australia) on 02/04/2007:
Late last night both my partner and I realized we had food poisoning from take away cooked chicken. we both had stomach cramps, nausea, dizziness and one of us on the floor of the bathroom retching while the other waited for the loo with diarrhea - what a scene! Managed to get to the computer and check google, found your site apple cider remedy - so we both went for it - yuck, but it worked. Both got a night's sleep - cramps wore off and feel ok today, just tired. Thanks heaps.

Came home from a long days work on friday [1/5] and resigned myself to eating some chinese food in the fridge - it had been in the fridge for 3 days. Well I downed the food with a harp's brew. Went to sleep at 12am. By 3am I was UP. Oh man. What followed was hours of mediation between the bathroom and bedroom as I pleaded for some higher power to let go of me and move on the next mope. At around 2pm [1/6], I went online and started looking..searching...then I stumbled on this site. What did I have to lose?...U tell me lol. After more bouts with the inner demons ripping my poor tummy to shreds, I was able to head to the store to pick up a bottle of apple cider vinegar. I couldn't find a teaspoon as I left the house so I took a small plastic cup. Well I poured myself a shot size of vinegar while still in the parking lot. By 5:30pm, I was in bed praying and hoping this would be the last. It is now 6:35am [1/7]..after a long night of sleeping. I woke up to feeling quite better. THANKS!!!!! Never again with left over chinese food. The ACV is sitting in the fridge. Yesterday was almost 70degrees in JANUARY and I missed it. Ohh well. At least I'm ready to tackle the work week.

Was vomiting violently for eight hours straight. Was told to try the acv and did (2 tbs acv). stayed down only about a minute. Threw it up and that was the end of it, literally. I had never heard of it before. Made a believer out of me. Just wish I was told about it eight hours earlier!

After getting the cure for my daughter's bad cough and cold from this site, I came back for a cure for my 11 yr old son's food poisoning he got from eating McDonald's. He was sick in bed and I gave him 2 tablespoon of Heinz apple cider vinegar I had gotten from the grocery store earlier for my daughter's cough. After taking it, my son went fast to sleep and didn't even throw up. The next morning when he woke up, he was fine and ate breakfast without any other problems, now that's a miracle cure. He had food poisoning before and was throwing up constantly and up all night. Thanks to everyone involved at this site for being a blessing to us all. May god bless you!

Two hours after eating a chicken sandwich I came down with Food Poisoning. After vomiting for nearly an hour, I decided to research the web for a cure. I came across this site. Feeling the way I did I was willing to try almost anything. I tried the Apple Cider Vinegar. It burned going down! However, it was nothing a person could not handle. I felt bad for another 1 1/2 hours, but no more vomiting I was ready to try another dose, but decided to eat some crackers instead. I have to say I am feeling much better, not perfect, but better. I will definitely use this remedy again should food poisoning strike!

After eating Taco Bell's steak bowl for lunch on Friday afternoon, my stomach was immediately irritated. By the time I got home I was bent over in pain. This was about 5pm. At 7pm, and every 2 hours after that I lived at my toilet bowl. At one point during the midnite hours I lay on the bathroom floor. My stomach was in so much pain. I didn't know what was wrong with me. I had my last vomit at about 5am Saturday morning. But I was still in pain. I had a fever and was beyond nausea. It wasn't until I spoke to a sorority sister that I realized that it was indeed food poisoning. Then I surfed the internet looking for cures. I came upon this site. I dragged myself out of the bed to go buy the apple cider vinegar. My mother suggested I take a tablespoon with me to the grocery store. After buying the ACV, I took 2 tablespoons immediately. And I felt it begin to work. And I mean I felt it. Well after a good nights sleep, I woke up Sun morning feeling brand new. All my pain was gone, my fever broke, and I was able to go to church. Needless to say I will be bringing my ACV to every BBQ from now on, and I found a cure for people who can't cook.

A couple of years ago, around the holiday season, I ate out in several restaurants within a week's time. So it's hard to pinpoint just which one caused my two months of diarrhea, and what sure looked like (yuck!) worms in the stools. Dumb me should have taken ACV along with me, but I hadn't done so. I saw a doc, and it wasn't the more serious worm/parasite infection (sigh of relief), and they prescribed some kind of medicine. In addition to the medicine, I also took apple cider vinegar. I had remembered the "Folk Remedies" book by Dr. Jarvis, and re-read it the part about food poisoning. After a while, things got back to normal. If I had taken it straight, it might have worked faster... never thought to do this. Since then, I diligently tote a small bottle of water and vinegar with me, and swill it down before attacking a restaurant meal. Friends expect it of me (they should do the same!). I'll be going to a 50th H.S. reunion in a few weeks, and wish there were ACV tablets I could carry with me on the plane. No such animal, though, right -- tablets, I mean? To lug bottles of vinegar with me might not be easy, but I'll try to figure out something. Can't live without it now.

Hey guys, thanks so much for the advice! I must put in my 2 cents for the sake of helping others. For the skeptics out there... -its probably 4am and you can't sleep anymore, your stomach is twisting and turning, your washroom hasn't seen u so often since new yrs and your near so damn desperate to try anything that'll work. You're at the right place! I ate 'bad chicken' and oh boy was i ever sorry.. .i suffered for 36 hours and finally decided to search for a cure. That's when i came across the ACV remedy. I took 2 tablespoons. To be honest it sure did taste like crap but i felt an immediate relief. I sat up for 45 mins after consuming the ACV and went to bed. When i woke up my stomach felt better and i wasn't vomiting. I'm going to stock up on ACV and i promise u will want to too. At this point, what do u have to lose? DO IT!

I had started to vomit uncontrollably, in hour intervals. Even though there was nothing left in my stomach, it still occurred. I was bid ridden, and when I moved I would vomit. I thought this would go away by itself, being that I had eaten something bad. I had not stopped vomiting for almost a 24 hour period, desperate to find a remedy I googled for a cure and came upon this page. Upon drinking ACV (Heinz pasteurized Apple Cider Vinegar), my stomach immediately calmed down and within a few hours the nausea and vomiting went away. Miracle cure!

I fixed pepper steak and poured a can of tomatoes over top. As I was eating I noticed a hot sour taste. I thought I might have put tomatoes with chilies over my steak. After completing the meal, I immediately felt sick and started throwing up. This is one of my favorite sites so I came to see if there was a cure. The ACV worked within 15 minutes. THANKS So Much!!
