A New Fan of Cayenne

Cayenne pepper and apple cider vinegar are my two newest favorites.

It all started with researching information for my six-year-old. One of the websites that I found and now love to peruse is earthclinic.com. It's a great collections of folk remedies that people have used and found to work (or not, as the case may be).

(Disclaimer: This is for informational purposes only. Make your own judgments and remember to consult your doctor!)

So this past week my husband and I both got sniffles and snorts...and we both decided to use apple cider vinegar and cayenne pepper. (You can go to earthclinic.com to read the particulars.) We added a tablespoon of one and a shake or two of the other to a glass of apple cider and drank it twice a day for about four to five days.

It worked for us!

No long-drawn out cold with sneezing and hoarseness for my husband; and no coughing or sneezing for me! (And believe me, in the past enduring a cold with my husband was no party.)

So now I'm a fan of cayenne.

Next I think I'm going to try a remedy for gray hair........

Till next time,
Jeanette
