Apple Cider Vinegar

Did you know that apple cider vinegar has many healing properties? 

Studies have shown adding apple cider vinegar to your diet helps with diabetes, blood pressure, cholesterol and even weight loss. In one study, drinking 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar, in water before meals, was shown to lower fasting blood glucose among adults at risk for type 2 diabetes.

Other research concluded that drinking apple cider vinegar may help lower high blood pressure AND reduce triglyceride levels. Apple cider vinegar also supports liver detoxification and overall circulation.

Holistic practitioners recommend it’s use for reducing acidity within the body and balancing pH, as well as easing indigestion, combating candida yeast, and breaking up mucus throughout the body.

The best apple cider vinegar to keep on hand is one that is NOT pasteurized. Pasteurization can weaken or even destroy the vinegar’s natural enzymes and other nutrients. Be sure to purchase apple cider vinegar that has “the mother” in it which is strandlike enzymes that occur naturally and are visible in bottles of unpasteurized apple cider vinegar.
