Anyone seen the benefits of raw apple cider with mother? How was your first day??

Options
in the past month 2 people have mentioned the benefits of organic Raw Apple cider with mother for energy, detox, skin problems and yes weightloss!
It was cheap so I gave in and bought a bottle at the vitamin shop brand (BRAGG Raw Apple cider with mother)
From the reviews I've read about 80% of the people say it gave them more energy.
I tried it today this morning 1 cup of warm water, 1 tbsp raw Apple cider, 1 tbsp honey about 30 min to 1 he before eating.
Well as expected the taste was not pleasant lol I drank it. All day I've felt my stomach rumbling like its working in my digestive system. I did have a normal bowel2 times today...
I feel like I need a nap!

    I've used it to make salad dressing.

    My first day was pretty good, my salad was delicious and I didn't really have any side effects because Apple Cider Vinegar doesn't really do anything.

    it helps my acid reflux when I am really suffering but can't say it made any difference to weight loss and you do have to be careful about your teeth if using it all the time

    I take mine twice daily in cold water, and I omit the honey as I don't like the combined taste. Also, make sure you drink it through a straw to protect your teeth if you continue to take it.

    I've been taking it for ten years. I was fed up with having colds all the time and looked up some natural remedies for cold prevention and came across this one, and I haven't had a cold since. People will be quick to say there's no 'science' behind this but it works for me so I guess it must be magic! (:-)

    p.s. oh yeah, it takes a few days to get used to the taste. I quite enjoy it now!

    Nope, that's actually it. It's the original yeast/bacteria that performed the fermenting of the vinegar. It looks kind of like someone hacked a loogie in the vinegar.

    "Strands of proteins, enzymes and friendly bacteria that give the product a murky, cobweb-like appearance.

    Some people believe that the “mother” is responsible for most of the health benefits, although there are currently no studies to support this."

    I saw a rainbow right after my last cold, and that was three years ago. Must be the rainbow's magical powers keeping me cold free!
