    There is no food that will cause you to lose weight. But I don't see any harm at all in 2tbsp of vinegar a day. I'm not sure how you have concluded that it makes you feel great

    I drink 2 tsp. of Brags with one tsp. honey in 8 oz. warm water every night. I bruise less and have less stomach problem. I also drink it after I've been out in the heat for a long time or after a workout. It replenishes my electrolytes. I feel better afterwards.

    hyperreninemia... that is confusing! that causes high blood pressure and they are saying Apple cider Vinegar lowers blood pressure???

    quote]
    Cider vinegar is only about as acidic as Coca Cola, so two tablespoons of the stuff is not going to burn your head off.

    If it makes you feel great and it helps you get rid of water retention, I see no reason to stop.

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vinegar#Potential_hazards

    Esophageal injury by apple cider vinegar tablets has been reported, and, because vinegar products sold for medicinal purposes are neither regulated nor standardized, they vary widely in content, pH, and other respects.[4] Long-term heavy vinegar ingestion may also cause hypokalemia, hyperreninemia, and osteoporosis.

    I tried it in the past. I discovered it is much easier to stick to maintaining a healthy diet than trying to get my daily does of ACV.

    I've used apple cider vinegar as a blood coagulant before getting my wisdom teeth taken out and it works! The oral surgeon didn't know, but even told me afterwards that it was easy for him because I hardly bled. It's really good to make it a tea, by putting a tbsp in hot water with some honey to sweeten it.
