Feeling Better Already (Northland, New Zealand) on 11/13/2009
5 out of 5 stars

I have to say that ACV diluted with warm water worked for me. The usual story, woke with an awful sore throat & couldn't swallow without feeling like I had sandpaper at the back of my throat. I remembered someone else mentioning ages ago that ACV helps. I hunted out a bottle that's probably been in the pantry since the beginning of time and I tried it. And you know what...? It works! First dose I knocked back 'straight'! (ugh..!) Wow - needed a warm water chaser then. Am now sipping it with diluted warm water & will continue throughout the day. Sore throat has not completely gone as yet, but definitely feeling so much better. I can actually swallow without cringing. It almost seems to have an anaesthetic effect too. I smell like a pickled onion, but more importantly, I can breathe & swallow & actually function almost normally. Great stuff I say! No more pharmacies & docs for me when I get a sore throat. Cheers!

I couldn't sleep because of a sore throat, and tried salt water gargle. No help so came to computer and got recipe for acv and honey and water. sipping it now as a warm tea and already find it helps. I had to cancel a luncheon and now wish I had tried this yesterday; I could have gone to the luncheon. Thanks everyone for your feedback. Not sick for years and now this. Good to find a home remedy that works. Back to basics..:)
