10 Home Remedies For Ear Infections
Remedy #6: Apple Cider Vinegar
Apple cider vinegar is made from fermented apple juice. It can be used in food preservatives, salad dressings, chutneys, and marinades. It has been used in traditional medicine for skin infections and weight loss. However, there is no clinical evidence available for these purposes.
Despite having no evidence to prove it helps with ear infections, apple cider vinegar contains acetic acid, which has antibacterial properties. One study showed that it kills fungi while another found it can be effective against viruses, bacteria, and fungi. Although it should not replace a doctor’s visit or other prescribed treatments for an ear infection, apple cider vinegar can be beneficial as a remedy for mild ear infections.
