Apple Cider Vinegar

So Many Health & Beauty Benefits…

 

If you are not incorporating Apple Cider Vinegar into your diet and health program then you are missing out on an incredibly healthy food and medicine.

Apple Cider Vinegar is beneficial for just about every part of your body both internally and externally from your head to your toes.

We are talking about unfiltered apple cider vinegar such as Bragg’s which in addition to acetic acid (the main active compound in vinegar) also contains strands of protein, enzymes, and beneficial bacteria.

These strands are known as “the Mother”.  They are the cloudy strings seen on the bottom of the bottle and contain many of the most beneficial compounds of Apple Cider Vinegar.  It is a good idea to stir these strands around each time you reach for the bottle.

Apple Cider Vinegar is the only vinegar that is so beneficial to our health.  All other vinegars can promote yeast growth and are typically avoided on many diets.

ACV (apple cider vinegar) with the Mother actually helps to control and destroy yeast infections.

The acetic acid as well as malic acid also found in ACV is a potent antimicrobial, antibacterial, and antifungal.

Malic acid is also antiviral making it very supportive to help us avoid colds and the flu.

ACV can lower cholesterol and triglyceride levels.

ACV may help to lower blood sugar levels as well as improve insulin sensitivity when eating a high carb meal lowering blood glucose and insulin responses.

The Lymphatic System benefits greatly from the addition of ACV to our diets.  ACV helps to break up mucus in the body and cleanse the lymph nodes.

Needing to soothe a sore throat!  Mix a 1/4 cup of ACV with an equal amount of warm water and gargle.  You can add cayenne and honey if you wish.

This gargle will help kill of any bacteria in the throat and can also help relieve sinus infections.

As any energy boost ACV is more effective and so much safer than the energy drinks available.  Try drinking a mixture of 2tsp. ACV with 2 cups of water and see if this does not give your energy a boost.

As a digestive aid take a Tbs. in 8 ounces on water 15 minutes before a meal to stimulate digestive juices.

The apple pectin fiber in raw unfiltered apple cider vinegar helps to soothe the entire gastrointestinal tract helping to prevent stomach cramps and bloating.

Not all Apple Cider Vinegars leave the Mother in tact even if they claim to be unfiltered.  Bragg ACV is one of the few you can count on to always have the Mother there for you.
