Grab That Apple Cider Vinegar!

I used to buy white vinegar, not anymore; I grab apple cider vinegar instead! Why? Take a look what apple cider vinegar does and gives to our body:
1. Apple cider vinegar soothes sore throat.
2. It lowers cholesterol.
3. It prevents indigestion.
4. It clears stuffy nose.
5. It aids in weight loss.
6. It helps control blood sugar.
7. It whitens teeth, and
8. It eliminates bad breath.
So, next time you buy your groceries, grab that apple cider vinegar not the white vinegar, which contains a bit of alcohol. My wife and I used to buy the cheap Heinz Apple cider vinegar, but last week my wife asked me to buy the raw unfiltered Bragg brand because it has not gone through filtration or chemical process that eliminates its natural nutrients.

It is also the fastest cure for Acid Reflux @antonbunot . 1 tbs of Apple Cider Vinegar in a 1/4 cup of water with 2 drops of honey. 5 minutes, heartburn is gone. Can be drank before, during or after meals and at bedtime.

@suziecat7 . . . what are the benefits that you feel you are getting from Bragg cider? In my case, my diastolic BP used to be a bit higher than normal . . now it is back to normal.

@jaboUK My wife and I usually drink a glass (medium size) of water mixed with one table spoon of Bragg apple cider vinegar. With regard to other two brands of vinegar, we use them in cooking.

Hi, my dear Momma @jaboUK , I add 1 tbsp. of raw honey to 1 tbsp. of Bragg acv in a glass of warm water. My dearly beloved (who suffers from acid reflux & diabetes), & I (with "that", plus hypertension, etc., take this mixture 30 minutes before breakfast (meaning, on an empty stomach).

It was just last month that we tried the Bragg brand. A bit pricey though.

@antonbunot Is it? The big bottle is only 417p here, in the Philippines. The small bottle is 243p. The Aunt Sue's Raw-Wild Natural 907g honey (which is our choice among a lot), costs more at 719.50!

@paigea My wife bought 3 bottles in Sunridge mall the other day. If my memory serves me right, the name of the store is White Mountain.

Yes, i am taking it before bedtime , 2 tablespoons of Bragg's in a glass of water . Then , in the morning on a glass of warm water on empty stomach .
I did that when my BP was 110/90 , 90 being borderline for diastolic , and it was that for two days . So i did the above and when the nurse took my BP it was back to my normal 110/80 .
So now , i always take it .

@hereandthere The Heinz is also an apple cider vinegar. But I think it is filtered unlike the Bragg brand. It is much cheaper though.

@antonbunot Bragg is the only organic one. Of course to cure a sore throat, lose weight and stomach problems, also the normal white vinegar (only the one made from grapes) works.

@Castlerock34 I guess I should not brush and floss my teeth for a week to let my breath stinks . . then I would drink or gargle with apple cider vinegar to find out if it smells finger-licking-good!

@Shavkat . . . I got a quite high diastolic blood pressure . . . since I started drinking Bragg raw, unfiltered apple cider, my diastolic is normal.

I buy this all the time my friend and use it for nearly everything...it is pricey but worth it.
I use that one for good things and I buy the big jug of white vinegar for cleaning. Baking soda and vinegar is a powerful cleaner.

I didn't realize apple cider vinegar was so healthy. I've started making salad dressing with balsamic vinegar and olive oil which is much healthier than my former mayonnaise dressing.

It's not for everyone. I tried the apple cider vinegar and developed an eye twitch within days that took a week to stop, after I discontinued using it. In preparing food, I still use it, but not on its own.

the Bragg apple cider vinegar I think is only purchased online, right? We use Datu Put5i instead. I don't think it is good for a person like me who has a heart ailment but good for those with diabetes.
