Apple Cider Vinegar

[Revolutionary Think]

This is totally random but, whatever. So anyway Today I did a focus group about Apple Cider Vinegar and I thought it was about Apple Cider. So all of a sudden I find out about all these health benefits of this tangy vinegar that you add to anything. Any of you heard of Apple Cider Vinegar? What is it and why is it so good for you?

It's good for kidney stones.

If you suffer from kidney stones, apple cider vinegar helps stop them forming.

Make sure you purchase the purest one which contains "the mother", the gross-looking sediment at the bottom of the bottle which is supposed to be quite good for the gut bacteria. 

Lots of benefits of ACV, haven't explored them myself but people say its really good for stomach problems and digestion.

@Michael569 Ya that's the one. Bragg brand right? 

[Michael569]

Yeah Bragg's is one of the biggest brands. Not sure if they filter out the culture inside though.

@Feel Good well any food or drink is not healthy in large quantities.

I've been drinking it for years. You don't have anything to worry about on the potassium front unless you're consuming 8oz a day for years on end according to this healthline article. https://www.healthline.com/nutrition/apple-cider-vinegar-side-effects#section3

It's not that healthy as it can deplete potassium.

@Feel Good  hey dude if you can ever find that article again, please share it here. I am genuinely interested. Always thought this stuff is quite healthy but perhaps not so. 

Thanks

I shared it in the post above yours. One woman who drank 8oz a day for 6yrs had bone loss.

sometimes i ask myself if all the youtube videos about apple vinegar is not just a promotion of „that“ brand. because it’s promoted for so many things.

i‘m sure apple vinegar is one of the most healthy vinegars you can get - would go for a biological one.

as with everything it can be a poison if overdosed. 

it‘s also interesting to compare it to apple acid malate. apple acid is something else the body needs for certain regulations. but it‘s not contained in the vinegar as much as in whole fruits (also other fruits than apples)

an apple a day...you know what i mean.

it contains potassium...

isn‘t a certain amount of potassium needed? especially for blood vessels. especially together with vitamin d? isn‘t it contained in a lot of fruits? 

i also know there are differences in organical and synthetic substances in their resorptive structure. think it might make the difference.

just a question.

I use apple cider vinegar as my key acid when I make food.  I use it on almost everything I eat.  Sometimes I'll use balsamic vinegar instead or I'll blend the two 50/50.
