i've had this cold that won't go away for about a week. I don't get sick very often so I didn't think anything of it. Now i'm kinda thinkin its a sinus infection because there's a lot of pressure in my head and when I blow my nose its thick. I've heard that "taking a shot" essentially, of apple cider vinegar can help clear this up. I've also heard it works best when you first feel symptoms. Has anyone tried this? does it work? I can't smell anything therefore I can't taste anything lol so i'm not worried about that! I figure it's worth a try!

    My roommate swears by drinking it even when you're not sick! Her chiropracter told her that it helps even out the minerals in your body as well as flush toxins. It doesn't hurt to try it and if you find you can taste it, she usually dilutes it in a glass of water! Feel better soon!!!

    Yes it does work !! It also helps lower your cholestrol and blood pressure as well.I take it everyday.Your friend is also right about it flushing the toxins out of your body.My doctor gave me this information and it is awesome.As far as your cold it is also a remedy for that as well.Isn't it funny how things around that we use everyday can help with like a million different things.

    I <3 ACV! Use it all the time. Another thing that is great (you can buy at a health food store) is Oil of Oregano. Whenever I even feel a cold coming on I take some and feel great!

    my friend used it for a sinus infection and it worked great. Had taken meds from the doctor three different times and it didn't help so she tried the apple cider vinegar and it worked. So good luck with it. My husband takes the oil of Oregano it helped him a friend of ours told him about it for a cold he couldn't get rid of. Works but tastes terriable :frown:
