I am conducting this research on behalf of my 69 year old mother who has been diagnosed with chronic arthritis as a result of the Chick-V virus since 4 years now.
I have found out that there are lots home remedies available for the cure of this illness; such as Apple Cider Vinegar with Cinnamon/honey/black molasses. Also garlic with honey/molasses.
What is your advice regarding the above?

Anti-inflammatories work well for rheumatoid arthritis particularly, though for viral arthritis, the evidence is less clear. It's true that anti-inflammatories like Methotrexate and NSAIDS may help with CHIKV induced arthritis although using just these homemade remedies you stated above are unlikely to be strong enough to make a significant difference depending on how severe the arthritis is.
Ask your doctor about it first, and if you are going to introduce new foods make sure that it's not a drastic change all at once so the body can become accustomed to the new diet.
Interesting since Vitamin C is a natural anti-viral, I've also read it's good for arthritis as well. Have lots of fruits and vegetables high in it. A supplement may be helpful as well. 500 mg at a time, and daily. I'd consider 1000 at least to begin. There are other natural nutrients to look into...like glucosamine.
