Apple Cider Vinegar: So Many Uses to Lose Weight and Feel Better
The all-in-one miracle tonic
Apple cider vinegar is a popular health tonic that is pushed as a powerhouse for health – and for good reason. The food has been used as a health tonic and miracle cure for all different types of ailments, from ACV, to upset stomach, to acne. So in what ways is apple cider vinegar beneficial to your health?
Conventional vinegar products are made through fermentation and then are filtered. Most store brought vinegar is clear, distilled, and looks nothing like its raw counterpart. Filtering out and/or pasteurizing the vinegar removes or lessens the health benefits it would otherwise hold.
A raw unfiltered vinegar is dark and murky colored, with the ‘mother’ of vinegar suspended in the liquid. ‘Mother’ in vinegar is the bacteria used to create vinegar and give it its sour taste. It is generally filtered out of conventional vinegar products when they are finished, but contains beneficial enzymes and probiotics.
In Western culture for many years, an essential element missing from the diet has been fermented foods. A combination of cooking food, microwaving, pasteurizing, filtering and otherwise “sanitizing” the foods we eat today have removed all the living enzymes from them. This is why apple cider vinegar (ACV) is so useful.
Fermented foods exist in many diverse forms throughout the world, having an essential place in the diets of many cultures. Many chronic diseases can be linked to enzyme deficiency which prevents the body from properly digesting and using the nutrients found in the foods we eat. So consuming more fermented foods is important to fend off these diseases.
The acids and enzymes in apple cider vinegar can have a positive effect on one’s intestinal and digestive health, and also can even be beneficial for the skin when applied topically. The potassium in apple cider vinegar can also help soothe muscles and prevent cramps. Ingesting apple cider vinegar can also have an alkalizing effect on the body, which may be why it has a positive effect as an energy booster.
While apple cider vinegar has been used for a variety of ailments, it can be especially useful for acid reflux. Apple cider vinegar can strengthen the gut, which directly improves immunity to sickness and disease. It can also help diabetics control their blood sugar. A doctor wrote a book in 1958 about using apple cider vinegar to cure arthritis, high blood pressure, asthma, and other conditions.
Though more science-based research is needed to know the full range of effects apple cider vinegar can have on one’s health, the positive effects it has for users as well as its historical use and track record should encourage individuals everywhere to consume ACV daily.

Went to hospital with horrible pain! Turned out to be kidney stones. Refused to have the hospital do anything else. Went home got on the internet & found the recipe that worked for me. 1 oz. baking soda, 2 oz. Braggs Organic Apple Cider Vinegar, 1tablspoon good Honey. Mix well with 4 oz. filtered water (we use Berkey). Drink it down ( don’t puke), repeat twice daily. Lots of prayers, urinate through a micro screen. In two days passed two stones large enough that I couldn’t believe it and could see that they were dissolving. Did this for two days more. My least favorite remedy but it worked! Anytime that I feel that feeling I repeat for two days. Have never experienced kidney stones again. Thank you JESUS for this remedy!
Oh please give me a break kimmie.
Why don’t you give us all a break, mind your own business and exit stage right- right off this board.
Sorry “little” johnny but not until your wife gets back from tool shopping and you tell us what kind of government we have.
John, keep flagging this chemical creep!
Kimmie, these chemicals help to feed the world, and they do so safely. Someday you will see the light.
Really, if they’re so good please do us a fine example & please drink a quart or two of your favorite “Round up”! We’re all waiting to see you “Light Up”!
Now Kimmie why do you want to keep showing your ignorance? Just because something is useful doesn’t mean you can drink it. Gasoline is useful, but I doubt if you would want to drink it. Try to put something serious on here if you feel the need to actually post.
Apple cider vinegar really helps to lose weight – but only by drinking i you will never burn much fat!
I lost weight with special diet and exercises, and I am absolutely sure taht everyone can do it!
You can read about this system on my site (my name = site with my review, copy and past the link to an adtress bar and go to the “fitness” section).
How much should be taken daily for health maintenance?
I read in a book that recommended 2Tbs Braggs ACV and 2tsp organic, cold-pressed honey dissolved in 6oz filtered water 15 min prior to each meal. The author said this was the perfect health drink!
It also good for high blood pressure, as it stated in Natural Society’s article three years ago.
