Should've tried Garlic instead of Apple Cider. Yuck!

I'm trying to get rid of Candida and bought some apple cider to drink since it's supposed to kill the bad bacteria. I couldn't hardly get it down. Garlic is also supposed to help with that. I think I'd rather swallow garlic tablets than gag on disgusting apple cider. Anyone else ever try apple cider?

  • I loooooooooooove it, especially when it's hot! Maybe you got some bad stuff?
  • Well it's apple cider VINEGAR. And I just read that you are supposed to dilute it in 8 ounces of water per two tablespoons of the vinegar. I did not. I drank like a fourth of a cup of pure apple cider vinegar. No wonder I got sick. Ooops.

    I drink ACV daily! I fill a gallon jug 3/4 full of water and add ACV along with a cup of PURE cranberry juice to make a full gallon and I drink one to two glasses daily!! It has loads of healing/cleansing proclaims! You get use to it when it is deluted down with the water and cranberry!

    Hahaha! You can also put it in your bath water and soak for a little while.
  • I should have read further up on it on how to drink it before I tried it. lol. Lesson learned. I'm going to try some in a bit diluted with water. The cranberry juice mixed in sounds good!

    Yup - it's also good for alkelizing the body (a body with an akaline pH is less likely to get sick and is going to help with the weight loss). Not sure if Garlic helps with that too, but I did the ACV a while back. I should actually re-energize it....it did help clear up my skin, help with the weight loss and I don't remember getting sick while on it at all.
  • Well I got sick because I drank it straight, not diluted and my stomach was not used to it. I have a very weak stomach sometimes.

    I had a roommate in college who drank the stuff to ward off bladder infections and she drank it straight. But she has been doing this for years. I tried in once and barfed. From time to time I will put 1 tablespoon of ACV in my 32 ounce jug of water and then I drink it slowly over the course of serveral hours. That actually tastes pretty good.
