  • I have some in the morning, it helps with tummy issues that I have. I heard it aids in weight loss and helps your skin clear, can't really attest to either of those yet because I don't take it frequently but it's really good for you. You can get caplets too from what I'm told.

    I had to have gall bladder surgery and prior to that a glass of Apple cider vinegar was recommended. I couldn't drink it straight, But I mixed one third of the vinegar with a 100% organic apple juice and it was very good. Helped my digestion immensely.

    I tried 1 tbs of apple cider vinegar (Braggs with the mother) in my 1.5 litre water bottle, I was drinking 2 of these water bottles per day and eventually worked up to 3 tablespoons in my water bottle. I was going to the gym doing PT, and it gave me a lot of stamina and definitely raised my energy levels. I also dropped a couple of kilos. Infact, I think I will go back to it.

    The main reason for drinking apple cider vinegar is to increase metabolism but it also de-acidfys the body and makes the blood more alkaline which is especially good for people doing high protein diets. For anyone who is curious about apple cider vinegar. www.earthclinic.com has a lot of information and testimonials from real people.

    It is important to note that drinking supermarket bought apple cider vinegar is of no benefit as the supermarket kind is pasturised. The pasturisation kills the "mother"' which is the live sediment (the bit that does all the good stuff).

    I've done it with the Bragg vinegar mixed with equal amounts of honey in a cup of hot water. I can't tell where it did any good, but I may not have been on it long enough. I got used to the taste eventually. Good luck.

    yes i use it. :)
  • It does help stimulate digestion... but should be done before the meal. Not afterwards... many southern folk in the US keep pickled vegetables like okra and even peppers and nibble on it at the beginning of the meal.

    According to a site that sells it, and with no reputable data to back up the claims.

    I have gout. I take a shot of Unfiltered Apple Cider Vinegar every day. Haven't had a flare up since I started.

    I take it daily, the raw ACV by Bragg's. I like the taste and it feels good in my tummy :) not sure what all it does, but it seems to make me feel pretty good.

    It's good for cleaning out a lady's hoohah.

    That's a myth! Why are you perpetuating these dangerous claims?!
