ive never heard of this mother variety. sounds.......weird to be honest. i take vitamin c. i seem to get less colds. tastes good so hey!

I suspect you're about to receive a deluge of requests for irrefutable medical evidence that vitamin C prevents colds. "Do not respond" would be my advice. Anyway this thread is about apple cider vinegar.

I use it as a natural astringent when I had a break out ... not for weight loss

I use Apple Cider as a dusting agent.

Aren't you worried about the vinegar killing the probiotic bacteria in your gut? I strongly recommend you take live probiotics (get it from the health food store, refrigerated! None of that regular store crap), one hour after you eat. Just to keep everything balanced.

And rinse your mouth out with a mild alkali to balance out your mouth.

Well, surely the same could be said of using it (or any vinegar) as a salad dressing? (Yes, this is a question.)
Oh, and by the way, I use it as a salad dressing too.

I have never had apple cider vinegar with my mother.

Mother......good tune

I'd bet Danzig is all about Apple cider. That dude is one surprising health nut.

Did anyone else find irony in OPs screen name?

Braggs is awesome in apple-berry shrubs, so it's got that going for it.

I took probiotics for about a month before I went to Ecuador, but I seem to have been OK without them before or since.

Mother?

That's what I was wondering...what was that actually supposed to be?

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.

Oh, okay. Thanks.

I don't get it.

Are you supposed to liquify your mother to drink it with the apple cider vinegar? Or are you supposed to take your mother out to a nice restaurant and then partake in the vinegar together?

I stopped getting colds when I started taking the flu shot and doubled my vitamin D dosage.

Good book. As manager of a health food store for three years I had many customers with wonderful success stories for various uses. I am a believer. I love the stuff.

I drank 1 tbl in a glass of water every morning all of last year. I used to only use it as a facial astringent and hair rinse but one lazy weeknight I decided to drink some because I was tired of water and something apple-y sounded good. No lie, about 30 minutes later I felt really happy for no reason. It was a ho-hum kind of day up to that point and it freaked me out that I became joyous for no reason. I started researching what exactly was in that ACV and found that, yep, it's a liver tonic among other things. Liver is directly related to mood and mine was stagnant I suppose. The liver also plays a big role in your metabolism. This is why folks make the large claim of ACV burning fat.

MOTHER is : contains the 'mother' of vinegar which occurs naturally as connected strand-like chains of protein enzyme molecules

You know I grew up being told there is no such thing as a dumb question. I asked because I wanted honest opinions from those who've actually tried it for more than just 1 time. I thought people here were adults that are here to find support and share their experience on what's worked for them" I'll just read the threads and not post questions .

There is absolutely such a thing as a stupid question. Yours wasn't really stupid, just often repeated and one that's been discussed ad nauseum here. The search function is a wonderful thing
