A couple of years ago I was suffering from a very stubborn infection in both of my ears. My ear doctor tried several antibiotics, but to no avail. Cultures of the infection showed strong resistance to most antibiotics, including Cipro. They had me on a regimen of intravenous injections 3 times a day, and a nurse would periodically come to my home and change the vein into which I would inject the antibiotic. This was all very nerve wracking.
That didn't seem to be making much progress, but my doctor learned of an ear specialist who apparently had a regimen that seemed effective in solving tough ear infections. Ironically, the night before I went to see this doctor, my mother-in-law tried to convince me to use a vinegar ear wash. Seems she had a book on "miracle" uses for vinegar. Guess what the Phoenix doctor's special regimen was. Vinegar and water! Use any vinegar, white is fine, and mix in equal amounts with water. Warm so you don't screw up your equilibrium by putting cold water in your ear, but don't make it too warm. Get an ear flush bulb and flush the affected ear 2 -3 times twice a day. In a few days my infection was history!

Thanks for the good words. I had a problem taking too many vitamins and I have been trying to find the right balance of foods and herbs for my health. After being tricked about all kinds of foods that I thought were good for me, I wanted to really know how to find what is best for me. I am convinced that nuts, apples, cinnamon, and honey are not only delicious but good for you. At least that is what I have found from research and asking my body. I really enjoy your posts as well in the more etheral side of CureZone. Thanks for dropping by...

| NEVER use household vinegar for the inside of your ears, or to cure an ear infection. Even mixing with a 50/50 water ratio is WAY too strong and can cause Permanent damage to your ear (including tinnitus which is a constant ringing that does not go away). ONLY use APPLE Cider Vinegar for an ear infection. "Apple Cider Vinegar" is much more mild and can be used internally. Do more research about this and do NOT listen to ignorant posts that say that "white vinegar is ok", because it's NOT. WARNING!
