The authors claim vinegar increases blood flow, boosts the immune system and helps waste products to break down more quickly - which can help lower a fever (file photo)
GET STARTED
The patient should be in bed, resting. Take a bowl, fill it with cool water and add the vinegar.
Soak the socks in this solution, wring them out slightly, keeping them nice and wet, and slide them over the feet and calves.
Put a dry towel around the socks to prevent the bed from getting wet.
After 45 minutes, if the patient’s temperature hasn’t gone down, replace the socks with freshly soaked socks.
Remove the socks if your patient’s feet or hands are cold or if the patient starts shivering.
WHY WE BELIEVE IT WORKS
Vinegar stimulates the blood flow and has a fever reducing effect. It also boosts the immune system and helps waste products to break down more quickly.
