I recently had Laryngitis. I mixed 1 tablespoon of honey and 1/2 teaspoon of Cayenne Pepper in the tablespoon, put it in the back of my throat, ate, then swallowed. It burned just a little for about 30 seconds. Moments later Laryngitis was gone. A virtual miracle. I now refer to earthclinic.com for all my ailments that can be treated without a doctor.

habanero pepper cured my laryngitus. i am 26 and have had a bad cold woke up today with barely any voice. i went home sick tried to talk on the phone and the other person couldnt understand me. I then ate 2 habanero stuffed green olives. within 10 minutes my voice was clear! i called my friend and they were amazed.

I woke up Sunday morning and could barely speak. I tried Nyquil at night and TheraFlu Daytime during the day. The Nyquil only helped me sleep...I'd wake up the next day and the hoarse voice was still there. I came across cayenne pepper as a remedy for ear infections so I thought perhaps it might help the voice/throat as well. I got a coffee mug and filled it about 3/4 full of hot water and a teaspoon. I took a mouthful of it, gargled with it, spit it out and repeated the procedure until the cup was almost empty.

That was twenty minutes ago and I have already noticed a change for the better!

I lost my voice and need to get on a legal call tomorrow - googled and found ceyenne recipe - had homemade chicken soup on the stove - scooped a bowl and put 1/8 tsp. in my bowl. Took one bite, throat on fire, coughed wildly, spit up green junk for a few minutes - went back and ate the whole bowl without even flinching - I can talk now! I am of Italian descent - maybe I can tolerate the pepper better - but it got the bug - I guess I'll be having chicken soup for a midnight snack, breakfast, lunch and dinner tomorrow!! Thanks!!
