Does cayenne pepper really heal a sore throat? ?

Question

Or is it an old wives tale that just makes it worse? =S

Experiences anyone?

Thankyou :)

Answer 1

I have not heard of that process.  However for a sore throat gargle with some Oil of Oregano.  Take some oil of oregano internally and see how that throat will become one of the best healed, ever.

I take cayenne pepper capsules for sore throats and it works very well for me.

Just be careful that you don't have a sensitive tummy to spicy things. I've had great success with using cayenne and honey to soothe my coughs too.  

Answer 3

I've never taken cayenne pepper but the Echinacea Goldenseal I have has cayenne pepper in the blend. I can tell it's there but it's not bad (probably doesn't contain alot). The Echinacea Goldenseal works really fast and we also gargle with salt water for a sore throat.  

Answer 4

If you like it HOT...  and burn your face off,take it!

Colloidal silver would do the trick, as with most infections.
