Apple Cider Vinegar will stop shingles. I have had shingles twice the first time (right side) I went to the clinic and they told me to use alcohol on to dry it out it kept spreading. I looked for home remedies and found the earthclinic web site and used undiluted apple cider vinegar it stopped the itching within an hour. All the new out breaks were gone over night and the rest in a couple of days. Two weeks later (left side) I recognized the symptoms and used ACV and stopped it. Both times it started out feeling like a really bad sunburn..
