Well, it's coming up to midnight. Can't sleep, of course. Incredible pain on the left side of my throat.Swollen glands.Tongue having trouble pushing even liquids down. What do you do when you can't sleep? Well, surf the net, of course! Found this lovely site. Am trying the Cayenne pepper with honey and warm water suggestion. Am only 3/4 down but there already is some improvement. i may sleep tonight! By the way, how is it that everybody has apple cider vinegar on hand? I only have malt and balsamic in my cupboard!I suppose that won't do? Since I'm up I could go to the 24 hour quikkie mart!

You won't find the apple cider vinegar with Mother's in it at the quickie mart. I had to get it in the organic section of the grocery store.

As far as the cayenne pepper remedy, my husband was diagnosed with strep throat right before Christmas and before filling the very expensive prescription for antibiotics, I suggested that he try this remedy. It worked! He felt relief the first day and was completely well by the 4th day. My throat started getting sore and I just sprinkled cayenne on everything I ate for a couple of days until it went away. I highly recommend this natual remedy.
