Apple Cider Vinegar

The history of apple cider vinegar dates to Hippocrates. He used apple cider vinegar as an elixir to treat his patients. During the Black plague health practitioners took apple cider vinegar because of its disinfectant properties. Today apple cider vinegar is touted as a cure-all with reported effects ranging from the curing the common cold to helping in immune health therapy. How does it work? Apple cider vinegar contains acetic acid, a digestive aid that helps to increase acidity by increasing the length of time that gastric acid stays in the stomach.

Food gets broken down more efficiently, more nutrients are available to the body and a variety of health concerns (caused by poor digestion), are alleviated. Apple cider vinegar also improves regularity by increasing intestinal contractions. Signs of low stomach acid are bloating after meals, flatulence and nausea because undigested food stays in the digestive system where it ferments and produces gas.

Signs that nutrients are not being absorbed include tiredness, poor wound healing, irritability and recurring infections. You are probably thinking that we all complain of these symptoms at one time or another. This is true because as we age our production of stomach acid naturally declines and many people suffer from poor digestion due to stress and other lifestyle factors. Apple cider vinegar is recommended for any condition that is caused by poor digestion including fatigue, obesity, arthritis, frequent colds and flus, recovery from illness and constipation.

Apple cider vinegar is available as a liquid or soft gel capsules. If you purchase liquid vinegar it should be raw, unfiltered (cloudy looking with sediment on the bottom) and organic. Apple cider vinegar may be found in formulas for weight loss.

In high doses, apple cider vinegar can cause stomach irritation. Individuals with hyperacidity, stomach ulcers or those who use antacid medication should not use apple cider vinegar.
