Topic: How To Use Apple Cider Vinegar For Sinus Infection?

The apple cider vinegar is amazing. Did you know it can help prevent colds and the flu?

In California, winter can trigger a terrible cold and flu season. On Thanksgiving Day, we spent it suffering from flu pains… and with a newborn baby, which was no fun at all. If I had been less distracted (without my newborn baby), I would have been aware of the time of year and all the germs that come with it. But before that, he had snot. Lots of snot.

With my normal knowledge, I would have done my best to prevent the flu by using apple cider vinegar, especially after we had guests who came from all over the country to see the baby - who came straight from. The airport is full of germs to our lodge!

Being very acidic, apple cider vinegar helps the body maintain a balanced pH, preventing colds and flu germs from lodging in the nose and chest. A properly alkalized body does not attract germs.

Taking a tablespoon or two of apple cider vinegar at the onset of a cold or flu - or when a loved one has one - will help prevent and fight the disease head-on. If taking it straight is too much for you, mix it with water or hot tea and maple syrup. You can also add it to salad dressings.

If you've waited too long and already have a cold or flu, drink vinegar anyway. It will help your body fight germs, give you energy and improve your digestion.

You can also use it to get rid of a chest or sinus infection. For a sinus infection or a blocked head, add 1/8 cup apple cider vinegar to a spray bottle and let sit overnight.

For chest congestion, cut a paper bag the size of your chest and soak it in apple cider vinegar. Sprinkle one side with black pepper and place it on your chest for half an hour.

How To Use Apple Cider Vinegar For Sinus Infection - Remedies

Direct consumption: One of the simplest ways is by directly drinking the apple cider vinegar. In this way the effects will be stronger, the healing faster, and it will prevent the sinus infection from reappearing. You only need to take it three times a day, for about a month.

Nasal rinse: Nasal rinse is an excellent option to fight sinus infection or sinusitis. For this you will need: Water (200 ml) and two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar. Bring the water to a boil over low heat, once ready, remove and add the apple cider vinegar. To rinse, use cotton wool or swabs, soak them in the mixture and begin to rinse the cavities very carefully. This will go a long way in preventing bacteria from building up.

Drink with honey: The combination of this ingredient with honey is very effective. To cure sinusitis with honey you will need two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar, one of honey and 500 ml of warm water. Mix the three ingredients and drink next. This drink will immediately calm the discomfort of the infection.

Vaporizations: Nothing like vaporization to ease discomfort. You will need: Half a cup of water (125 ml) and half a cup of apple cider vinegar. Bring to a simmer, once ready, remove and let it rest. Then pour the liquid into a plastic container and place your face towards it, place a towel behind your head, to better absorb the vapor and begin deep inhalations. This will help eliminate bacteria that are attached to the nasal walls.

Decongestant: For its preparation you will need: Half a cup of apple cider vinegar (250 ml), half a teaspoon of powdered ginger and cayenne pepper, half a lemon, and three tablespoons of honey. Boil the apple cider vinegar with the lemon, then add the rest of the ingredients. Pour the mixture into a glass container and store. Take three tablespoons of this mixture daily. This will lower the nasal swelling.
