I had such a horrible sore throat for two days. last night the soreness was soo bad that I got out of bed and typed "sore throat" into a google search, hoping to find some releif. This site was the first one on the list. After reading everyones testimonials on the Cayenne Pepper remedy, I decided to try it. I HATE spicy food and cannot stand the burn in my mouth at all so I was skeptical but I was desperate for some relief. To my complete amazement, it worked. I gargled warm water and 1/4 tsp of cayenne pepper in a small glass of warm water until it was gone. I went to sleep for about 2 hours. (It took a little while for the burn to subside but it wasn't nearly as bad as the pain of the sore throat.) When I woke up, my sore throat was more than 50% better. I just gargled it again to reinforce. What an amazing surprise! I will be telling everybody about this remedy...Thank you! :-)

This absolutely worked for me! I started with my annual allergy "attack" yesterday. To me, the sore throat is the worst part. I followed the instructions and after two or three gargles, my throat felt immensely better. I gargled a couple of hours later and my sore throat had subsided enough so I could get a good night's sleep. Thank you, thank you!

Whenever my glands start to swell and a sore throat starts, I rub arnica gel (found at a nutrition store) on the outside of my neck and it causes the sore throat to go away as well as the swelling. I've used the arnica gel for sore gums, cankor sores (always put the arnica gel on the outside of mouth and never on an open wound or insect bite). I used arnica gel rubbed on my neck and upper chest to survive severe asthma until I learned about using hydrogen peroxide breathing (1/2 c. In 1/2 gal. Of distilled water in my vaporizer). I also used 1/2 t. Of celery (a natural dieretic) seed 2 times a day. I put the seed in my mouth and washed down with water. I also use cayanne pepper for pain and health. I'm 90% better than I was last summer.

I use the arnica gel for any swelling or to prevent bruising or pain when I bang up against a hard object.
