    Apple Cider Vinegar

    Good for anything or just bunk? I need some opinions before commiting to a couple tablespoons daily.

    Was gonna PM Will but it's more useful to others as a post.

    Thnx

    The WebMD write up is pretty good:

    http://www.webmd.com/diet/apple-cider-vinegar

    Most claims for it not supported by studies/data, and a few claims supported by studies/data are pretty weak.

    Dr. Weil also seems less than impressed:

    A lengthy but interesting write up:

    When I thought I had GERD and dropped 14lbs, I was taking a shot of it a day. It didnt change any of the negative effects I was expierencing after eating a meal with very low acidity. My only input... oh, and I can drink some skunky beer...but that stuff isnt easy to put down in bulk.

    It doesnt taste too bad through a straw. Only tried about 2 tablespoons.

    But if it doesnt have any real benefits i'm going to stop. Long term could lead to less bone mineral density?


    Appreciate the links Will, thanks.

    Well, taking a shot of a highly acidic liquid will often = stomach problems.

    After it undergoes oxidation, it actually is considered an alkaline; so hypothetically it was supposed to bring my highly acidic stomach into an alkaline state. In reality after 30 years of not being allergic to anything, I started to have allergies. I started to take a zyrtek a couple times a week and miraculously im cured.

    The only thing i have used apple.cider vinegar for (that is effective) is to trap and kill fruit flies, very effective.

    Eastern NC BBQ is centered around apple cider vinegar and red pepper flakes style "sauce". I made a hybrid sauce a while ago that was 1/2 ketchup/brown sugar based and 1/2 ACV and I burned off the acv till I got the consistancy I wanted plus my spices. It was pretty good, but I need to tweak it more wit brown mustard.
