Hmm, this is a new info for me. Would you mind sharing how much vinegar should I put for every liter of hot water? This is a good news for me since I have a weak immune system and could easily catch flue.

Hi. You know what, I've tried doing this for 3 consecutive nights now. I'm not sure but I think it has other good effect on me. It was surprising because I could easily go to sleep now...and without interruptions. I normally find it hard to sleep at night. Many thanks for sharing this therapy.

I have soaked my feet once in awhile in either just hot water or espom salk and hot water. I have never heard of pouring vinegar in the water to help prevent flu. I might have to try it one of these days.

vigear can kill some bacteria ,hot water can make your body inside warmly,that is the best effect. but you must insist throughout the year.

I never heard that that saoking your feet to hot water and vinegar can helps you to prevent flu. What I know is it can remove the smell of your feet, help you relax and if you have migraine it is a good alternative.

Well, i haven't tried your method yet and perhaps this is my 1st time about it, too. How do you came to know about using this method, as a good way to prevent flu? I might want to give it a try, if you can give more info about this method. Thanks for this info, friend and not forgetting, welcome you to Mylot. Hope you enjoy staying in Mylot when you have the time.

Are you sure hot water? it can cause burn degree in your foot.. It should be WARM water instead.. The best way to prevent FLU is to take Vitamin C and take anti-flu medicines because the infection of virus spreads inside the body not outside the body.. some uses that technique of WARM water + vinegar soaked in foot when a person is chilling as an alternative method.

u are right, hot water can't hurt your feet,i mean your feet can enter the hot water, that is ok. if doing so ,hot water can drive away the cold inside your body. warm water ,i guess have no effect.
