Three Power Foods That Can Help Treat Sinus Infections
Michael Ravensthorpe
(NaturalNews) A sinus infection, or sinusitis, is an inflammation of the lining of the sinuses that often leads to persistent runny noses, headaches, fevers and facial pains. According to the American Academy of Otolaryngology, more than 37 million Americans — almost 12 percent of the United States population — suffer from at least one episode of acute sinusitis annually, and that number seems to be growing due to increased environmental pollution, greater urban sprawl and a growing resistance to antibiotics.(1)
Fortunately, the natural world provides us with many foods that are effective at cleaning the sinuses and killing the bacteria and viruses responsible for these issues. This articles contains a list of the best of these foods.
Cayenne
Almost all of the ancient healing systems of the world have venerated cayenne peppers as a powerful medicine, and for good reason: These fiery hot chilies are bursting with an active component called capsaicin that is proven to treat many medical issues, including sinus-related problems. For example, a randomized, double-blind study published in Annals of Allergy, Asthma & Immunology in August 2011 showed that intranasal capsaicin could help treat the headaches, nasal congestion, and sinus pains and pressures associated with rhinitis (an inflammatory nasal condition that often leads to sinusitis).(2)
To use cayenne pepper to treat a sinus infection, take a small pinch of organic, non-irradiated cayenne powder and snort it up each nostril. Then, allow the sinuses to drain into a tissue or sink. If you cannot tolerate the unpleasant burning sensation that arises from snorting cayenne, you can dilute the powder with some water, apply the mixture to an ear swab and administer it that way.(3) Adding some cayenne pepper to your meals or taking it as a supplement can help accelerate the healing process.
Apple cider vinegar
Like cayenne pepper, apple cider vinegar has a long history of use as a medicine and is well-equipped for treating sinus infections. Firstly, it is a natural antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal and anti-inflammatory that can kill the destructive microorganisms that cause the infection. Secondly, it helps the body maintain a healthy alkaline pH level, which helps to break up mucus and discourage the proliferation of disease. Lastly, apple cider vinegar is a proven immunity booster, meaning it can help prevent sinus infections from occurring in the first place.(4)

“One of my daughters called me in a panic, she was coming down with a brutal sinus infection, and she had a very important sales event that she HAD to be there for in the morning. I had her lie on her back on the couch and tilt her head back and put 5 drops of straight NutraSilver directly into her nose and let it get up into her sinuses. I had her stay there for 10 minutes. Well, it made her sneeze, which drove it deep up into her sinuses! She called me in a panic because it was burning like crazy! I told her not to panic, the NS is completely non toxic. So she calmed down and 1 hour later called to tell me she was feeling way better,and her sinuses were starting to clear. I told her to do a couple more treatments, which she did over the course of the next day. It cleared the sinus infection!” DAVID PHILIPSON, DC June 2014
