Jean's Famous Tomato Tea Remedy for Sinus Infections and Congestion

Had sinus issues once in a while, always very light. But for the last few days it was over the top, to a point where it woke me up at 3am, as I was unable to breath. I thought to myself that this is it, I'm gonna find myself a homemade remedy. So I searched on the net and found this site. I went into the kitchen and found I had all the ingredients except tomatoe juice, so I used fresh tomatoes, and boiled them first in a little bit of water for 10 mins to make a thick sauce kinda thing. After a couple sips, I could feel the sinuses clear up. Now, 30 mins later, I feel great, and ready to sleep. Good night! and thanks for the remedy!

I was really suffering- not only did this drink provide a good measure of relief - it tastes great! Thanks!

My results just came a lot later than was specified in the paragraph. I'm still disappointed that I had to wait so long.

I have suffered with severe sinus and allergy attacks for many years. I read about tomato juice, garlic, and lemon juice on Earth Clinic yesterday. I tried it this morning. My head is completely clear now. I also started drinking the ACV yesterday. I will let you know the results as soon as I see a difference.

THANK YOU!!! I was in agony and bordering hysteria trying to breathe when I decided to utilize the good old internet. What a concoction but it worked! My poor nose began to clear as I was making this tomato tea! I can't tell you how miserable and desperate I was. Oh bless you, I can sleep tonight!!

It works. The tomato tea really opened up my sinuses. It lasted long enough for me to be able to use my neti pot. Great, Thanks.

I've been sitting here sipping this stuff and reading the testimonials and while this tomato tea doesn't taste all that great, it is starting to work. An hour ago I had my head buried under my pillow, trying to think of some way to make the pain stop. I'm glad I found this site. I'm all ready feeling a great deal better!

It worked for my future husband.Thank You!

I have a very severe case of nasal congestion and nothing has worked for thus far. I've tried several different prescriptions, the over the counter stuff and now the tomato tea...none have worked for me. The tea cleared one passage briefly but I was stuffed up again within 15 minutes or so.

This is the first time I had ever had sinus congestion. I kept waking up in the early hours unable to breathe. UGH! Came across the recipe and started taking it on a Thursday night. Felt slight relief but nothing overly exciting! Kept drinking it 2 or 3 times a day (I think it's quite yummy!)and by Thursday it was all clear!!! That was 3 months ago! Impressive!

This rocked! I cannot believe my mom was right all along! It helped so much, so fast! Thank You so much! I had to stop using Afrin because of its adverse effects and was dying to find anything to replace it!

It pretty much worked, I still felt the Sinusitis, but its felt distant. Maybe it would have worked fully if I had everything, I had to use tomato soup and mild salsa instead of juice and hot sauce. I guess it worked though.

After the second sip of tomato tea, my sinuses opened up. This recipe is going in my cookbook for future use - bless you and thank you so much!!!

As many of the folks who wrote in, I was desperate to find treatment for my sinus problem. I had the flu and now 4 weeks later, I still have blocked nasal and sinus passages. Over the counter decongestants and sprays worked for a short while but I believe excessive use of them has now actually caused further congestion. I can't sleep at night, and my throat is sore from continually breathing through my mouth, constant pressure in the sinuses, it's even difficult to talk. I read the tomato juice recipe and went hunting in my cabinets. Believe it or not I found that Bloody Mary Mix (without the alcohol) has similar ingredients and it worked within 1/2 hour. The ingredients on the bottle read: Water, tomato paste, horseradish, sea salt, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, molasses, anchovies, sardine, onion, garlic, cloves,chili peters, eschalots, lemon juice, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper. Thanks for the idea.

I get really bad sinus cloggage when I get a cold. I've tried all the prescribed medicines, none work, all the over the counter medicines, none work. So I tried this one and it made me feel a little better but it didn't unclog my sinuses.
