I have close friend who has told me about ACV over the years and its benefits. I could only imagine using it and just my luck I'd smell like an Easter Egg, I must point out she has NEVER smelled like an Easter Egg-- Hee Hee!! Anyway, I thought I would give it a try over the next few weeks and see if I notice any changes in my health. ACV has a wide range of benefits from skin ailments, to helping with joint pain from arthritis to other similar related conditions. It is supposed to help with digestive disorders and even has benefits for diabetics in regulating their sugar/insulin levels.I have to admit after drinking some last night my all day tummy ache did go away! If you do a search for Apple Cider Vinegar you'll find a WIDE assortment of information. I tried it last night for the first time in a drink form, called Honegar. I mixed 1 teaspoon of honey with 1 teaspoon of ACV in a little over 10 ounces of water. Usually the ratio is 1 Tablespoon of ACV to 1 Tablespoon of Honey (or a tad more) to 8 oz of water. It was very tasty..It did not have a vinegary taste at all. It tasted more like watered down lemonade.NEVER drink the ACV straight, it can ruin your teeth and your Esophagus. You can find this recipe along with others , on the Internet. This morning I mixed the ACV with my Ice Tea--I didn't like the taste change in my tea but it was still drinkable.. I am not sure what I am trying to accomplish by trying this 'cure' but maybe I will discover some health benefit . I would like improved skin (I have Psoriasis) and no joint pain ( I have Arthritis) I also have Chronic Fatigue & Sleep Apnea, just to name a few annoying health issues.. It is also supposed to help with blood pressure, too. Have you ever tried it? What was your result? Do you know anyone who uses ACV for anything?
Here is one site to find information. Keep in mind there are many many sites so if you are interested, keep searching....----->>>>. APPLE CIDER VINEGAR. A lot of sites recommend using Organic ACV. I have Heinz right now but I will prob switch to organic eventually.
*** Don't confuse ACV with White Vinegar** It's not the same.
My parents gave me a book once about the benefits of ACV, not sure if I still have that book. I know there are lots of good benefits from it, but I have yet to use it for anything more than a sore throat. We we get a sore throat, we add 1 tsp of ACV to some warm tea. And when we do that our sore throat is usually gone within a day! I didn't believe it at first, but once I tried it and realized how much it helped, I try to keep some in the house. My friends who told me about it said organic ACV is the best, but I can't afford organic, so I keep a small bottle of regular here. Hope it helps you with your issues.

Wow, this sounds like it will be beneficial to me, too. I probably didn't try it before because I thought it would taste bad (thinking you drink it straight), but since I know now you musn't drink it straight and that you can sweeten it with honey, I'm more receptive! You know I have my own issues and it would be SO nice if it helped me. Keep us informed as to your thoughts about it.
