Apple Cider Vinegar - The Simplest Answer to Perfect Health

Apple cider vinegar is perhaps the number one natural remedy chronicled throughout human history. The use of vinegar as a tonic has been documented as far back as 5000 BC by the Babylonians who were using the date palm to make wine and vinegar. They used it as a food and for a pickling agent. Vinegar residues have been found in ancient Egyptian urns dated 3000 BC. Chinese historical documents from 1200 BC tout the glories of vinegar benefits as well.

The reasons for it's popular medicinal use and as an energizing drink are scientifically well founded by modern science also. Apple cider vinegar benefits are a result of it's source - the noble apple - famous for the saying An apple a day keeps the doctor away. Apples contain not only vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, but also dietary fiber. In addition they contain virtually no fat or sodium.

All of the apples goodness is miraculously transferred to apple cider vinegar especially when it's left untouched or in other words unprocessed. Apple cider vinegar made from whole apples and not pasteurized or filtered contains not only all of the apples nutrients but also many additional enzymes and organic acids produced during the two fermentations required to turn apples into vinegar. Braggs Apple Cider Vinegar is the most popular brand that meets all of the requirements needed to reap the treasured benefits of ACV.

The long list of apple cider benefits range from an antiseptic to an antioxidant while providing a host of absorbable minerals such as potassium and magnesium including pectin, and a water soluble fiber, which is one of the many reasons for the success of the cider vinegar diet.

The recommended method of using apple cider vinegar is to make it into a tonic by mixing 2 or 3 teaspoons of ACV in an 8 ounce glass of water and drinking it before or during each meal. One point to remember when taking apple cider vinegar between meals or before going to bed is to always rinse your mouth to avoid any prolonged vinegar contact with the enamel on your teeth.

My favorite way of dealing with this minor setback is to mix a tsp. of baking soda in the vinegar before you add water. It is always fun to watch it fizz up! Besides the added alkalinity provided by the baking soda is a definite health plus.

As far as ACV remedies are concerned the list literally ranges from A to Z. It starts at acne and asthma and runs to warts and weight loss ending with yeast infections including such ailments as cancer, eczema, fatigue, fungus, headaches, heartburn, insomnia, sore throat, ulcers, and varicose veins in between - to list just a few.

In short, apple cider vinegar lives up to it's reputation of being the simplest answer to perfect health and a timeless cure all as well. A prize in any persons natural remedy medicine chest and a powerful preventative to whatever ails ya, not to forget its age old popularity as a world class tonic. Make sure you always use pure unprocessed organic apple cider vinegar with the mother still in it, and you can rely on it's amazing properties to help provide you and your family with a long and healthy life.
