5 out of 5 stars

I had a gout attack two years ago and took medication. Three months ago it started and I used up the rest of the meds. This time it really came back and I was desperate for a non MD solution. I found this forum and I can't believe how great I feel two days later. I had a can of cherries, a glass of water with baking soda and then just started drinking Apple Cider Vinegar in water - t tbsp in a glass of water. I walked four miles today with no pain at all- in fact, I think I am better than I was a month ago. Thanks to all who posted!

Hi there, I've been suffering from Gout for about a year now and have tried many medicines from my GP. I came across this website yesterday and went straight to Holland & Barret to buy the goods, I got the ACV with Mother, Baking Soda and Cherry Tablets, I've been trying to find the Alfalfa Tablets but can't get them, are they a key player in this remedy working? I've taken 3 doses of ACV, BS and CT but my pain hasn't eased and my foot is red swollen and the size of an Elephants??? Can someone please help???

The Malic Acid in Apples is said to neutralise the acids that cause the pain associated with gout, also it, s a good diaretic flushing the system. Gout being a form of Athritis. MSM is also a very good pain relief. An alkalising diet is also suggested. But certainly worth googling the Natural way to address Gout..... Your ACV and baking soda should start to bring some results. Good Luck and Good Health.:)

Hi again - Well since my last post on 18th I can say the pain is almost gone, I've been taking ACV with Mother, BS and Cherry Tablets twice a day, The swelling is still really bad and still can't put a normal work shoe on so relying on trainers but the pain is almost gone. Im seeing a Private Consultant tonight so will see if he can give me an injection to reduce swelling, Im still unsure if the Alfalfa capsules are a key player in beating this the healthy way... Can anyone assist?

Sprouted Alfalfa is safer than eating or taking the seeds!
