I got the idea for using baking soda and hydrogen peroxide off this site. It features user reviews on using natural remedies for a ton of common ailments. Right now I'm drinking a cup of warm cayenne pepper tea to deal with a sore throat I'm having.
The natural remedies work most of the time for me. For those without health insurance, it's a godsend. Also great for annoying problems that don't really need immediate medical attention.
I hear the term "natural remedies' and my bullshit detector goes into overdrive. This is probably a knee jerk reaction to the endless amount of crap out there, but I've decided to give a remedy that comes highly recommended off the site a try.
Because quite frankly, I have nothing left to loose.

Most Americans are skeptical of anything deemed natural or organic, to them they think it's all a bunch of B.S. or a scam. Those very same people will blindly pop whatever pill their doctor gives them, or not stop to think what's in their food, where it came from, and how it got there....
Natural things are how nature intended it, it's only been in the past 80 or so years that we've gotten all these synthetic chemicals and whatnot.

When you go the doctor, make sure you tell him about any "natural remedies" you're ingesting. They can interact with certain drugs or cause other symptoms sometimes, but people don't think to mention them because in their mind if it's "natural" and not a pill or a shot, then it can't be doing any harm. The reality is that all drugs have side effects, whether they come from nature or they're made in a lab. I had a patient once who got prescribed blood thinners and neglected to mention that she was taking ginseng herbal supplements. It reduced the blood thinners' effectiveness and put her at risk of getting a clot.
On a related note, capsaicin (the active ingredient in cayenne pepper) can impair blood clotting, so be careful about using it with things like aspirin/ibuprofen/Aleve which can also thin your blood and put you at risk of bruising or bleeding.

Roosh, another thing you can do to help that sore throat is dissolve salt into hot water and gargle it as long as you can stand it. Also using apple cider vinegar. Hope it clears up.

I love how Hydrogen Peroxide is listed as a natural remedy... even though its entirely synthetic. Can someone point me to the Peroxide tree please?
