I'm currently suffering from an increase in migraine frequency and intensity. My concerned wife found this ACV remedy. Yesterday, as my second migraine within 14 hours began, I made an ACV drink consisting of 2 tbsp ACV, 1tsp honey and 240 ml boiled water (cooled but warm enough to melt the honey). Within 15 miutes the aura had vanished and within 30 minutes the accompanying headache was 80% gone. I'm amazed. Having suffered from migraine for 20 years, I can't believe that no doctor has suggested giving this remedy a try. Clearly it is well known, so why don't doctors promote this? Because they've been reduced to drug pushers for pharmaceuticals.

I used to take acv daily with water and honey but stopped a few years ago. I have gotten migraines since childhood and just now tried acv for a migraine I've had for three days that wouldn't go away with the excedrine I usually take-wow!-it started working in about 5 minutes and the migraine is just barely hanging on now an hour later...I'm hopeful I'll get through the night and be productive at work tomorrow with NO migraine!

I came across this site searching for help for my chronic headaches and migraines. Over the counter medications didn't seem to help the pain. Prescription meds helped a little, but the side-effects were awful and they did not seem to be curing the problem. After years of this I was so tired of having headaches and was getting depressed about it. Why was my head pounding? I realised I had nothing to lose by trying the Apple Cider Vinegar and the Magnesium Oil remedies on this site. So I did, and THEY WORKED!!! I am so pleased. The ACV works really quickly, I can notice a change within minutes of taking it. The MO took a couple of weeks until I lost the skin itching/prickling. Now it is just like water. I feel much stronger, happier, bouncing with energy, and I haven't had a migraine or even a headache for a couple of weeks.
