I used ACV for my headache brought on by dehydration. I felt it coming on and it started to get worse. Of course, I went to EC to check out remedies, as I always do. I had no idea that ACV was a remedy for headaches! I took 1 tablespoon of ACV in 1 cup of water. I felt results almost immediately. However, the first dose was not quite enough. I wanted my pain to be fully gone. I took another dose (1 T of ACV and 1 cup of water) about 10 minutes later, and now my headache is GONE! Try it!

Apple Cider Vinegar for Headaches/Dizziness

I had a throbbing tension headache, along with dizziness, possibly from a bee sting a few hours prior. After reading the reviews, through blurry eyes, I drank 2 tbsps. of apple cider vinegar in 24 oz of water. Literally, within 10 minutes my headache, dizziness, tension was gone. Ibuprofen ain't got nothin on ACV! Definitely adding ACV to my daily routine.

Well as I work at computer all day I tend to deal with neck and shoulder/upper back tension. I'm working on that but in the meantime I often get tension headaches. I woke up with one this morning and was determined to not take anything. (I'd been getting 1 or 2 a month due to Menopause off and on also and just wasn't willing to take anything just yet).

So thinking I know everything lol I've been suffering through it all morning and now it's lunch time. I decided to come on Earth Clinic and look up headaches. Well! Since I keep a smaller bottle of ACV on my desk to keep UTI's away if needed I saw the high rating for ACV for headaches.

Nothing to lose so I took a cap-full in about 3oz of water and followed it with a bit more water. OH MY - honestly I don't think it was even 20 minutes. Headache GONE. I may take another dose in a bit just because.

Granted I still have back tension that I need to at least do some stretching for -but that nagging uncomfortable headache is gone. Thanks everyone here and mother nature for providing yet again! :) :)

I woke up with a nagging headache this morning and ibuprofen didn't help. Over the past week, I have been drinking a tablespoon of apple cider vinegar with a glass of water first thing in the morning...but this morning, I forgot until I got out of the shower. I did it just before I left for work and lo and behold, my headache disappeared after the first gulp of the vinegar water mixture. I was amazed. I had totally forgot that apple cider vinegar could be used to help with headaches. I'm going to give it a try the next time a migraine shows up.

This worked wonders in minutes for me. I had a very severe headache [the kind that the pressure is so bad you think your head might explode] yesterday and nothing would even touch the pain. I had a hard time sleeping and woke up with the same aching head. Came to EC and decided to try ACV.

Here is my exact recipe:

4oz WARM water, 1 heaping tsp. raw honey, 1 tsp. ACV with mother, sprinkle of cayenne. Mix together and drink.

I went from not being able to walk with my head up to feeling the pain subside within minutes. I am about 80% better and will probably repeat the ACV mixture in a bit. Thanks EC!!

Apple Cider Vinegar for Headache:

I took 2 TBS of ACV straight immediately followed by ice water, worked well.

This is how I prefer to use ACV, though it's definitely not for everyone. I drink a lot of water all day anyway.

I didn't have apple juice to mix honey and ACV in so I peeled cut up and pureed a small apple. Then added ACV and honey to this and drank it. In about 20 mins headache was gone. Probably much better for your liver than Tylenol too. Thank you.

I tried your apple cider vinegar remedy for a pms headache and it worked. I took a tablespoon of vinegar in a large glass of water and drank it down slowly. 45 minutes later my headache pain was reduced by 50%. A few hours later I drank another glass and that did the trick. Thank you for this remedy!!

I am a allopathic doctor by profession doing family practice since 28 years, I suffered from abdominal koch's which got cured by treatment, later I devoloped left sided CONTINUOUS hemicrania. For this I consulted so many super specialists with no improvement at all, later I was put on anti-depressants, whitch I am taking since 25 years. Now I am totally dependant on it.

Luckily through search engine I came across your website, then started honey and cinnamon in hot water on empty stomach in the morning, along with plain vinegar diluted in water sipping it at regular intervals till 5PM, in the same day I am very much relieved of heavyness of the head, & feeling fresh &energetic..... Hoping to get required cure... Thanks a lot
