Apple Cider Vinegar for Joint Pain

[tulip]

Would cooking it, as in soup, negate some or all of the benefits?

I use it in my waffles. All I know is that it tastes delicious.

I had two tablespoons of raw apple cider vinegar in a glass with one packet of Emergen-C and cold water. It was fine. New elixir, perhaps? We shall see.

I really think it's best if you drink it just diluted in water, between meals or before you eat in the morning. You need the vinegar to dissolve/interact with chemical substances in your body and you need the water to flush out whatever is produced by the numerous chemical reactions. The more water the better, and it's best on an empty stomach.

I use it as a condiment, or at most stir it in at the end of cooking as you would soy sauce or miso, so it doesn't boil or cook very much. As to what staceysue said, I don't know.

If it's working for you that way I'm more than happy to be wrong. It sure would be easier to get it in every day your way!

It is claimed that apple cider vinegar is helpful in ailments such as constipation, headaches, arthritis, weak bones, indigestion, high cholesterol, diarrhea, eczema, sore eyes, chronic fatigue, mild food poisoning, hair loss, high blood pressure, obesity, along with a host of many other ailments. No wonder then many know apple cider vinegar as the "Wonder Drug".

two tablespoons of "Apple Cider Vinegar" and honey, mixed in a glass of water and had first thing in the morning.

Hot water, vinegar, and honey.
I like it. Maybe it will help this stupid cough.

Years ago when I was a youngster, there was a book ("Folk Medicine," by Dr. D.C.Jarvis, I think it was called) out praising the use of apple cider vinegar as a health benefit. It was, according to the author, an old-time "country doctor," good for just about anything that ails you.

I still buy and use ACV for anything I use or do that calls for vinegar, partly in memory of that, but mostly because I think it tastes better than the plain white stuff ;-)

I just heated up 8oz of water, put some honey and the two tsp of ACV, and it was wonderful. That's a nice recipe on the bottle of the Braggs!

Yes I find the recipe on the Braggs' bottle to be tasty as well.
I put extra honey in it though....big honey fan.

Its nice on salad. I am getting kombucha! Already added yoga
Its also good, vin - for soaking you non organic veggies with some water, to get off pesticide residue.
I take it every day and love the stuff.

[rocknrollgirl]

I sure hope it does wonders because it tastes awful to drink, even with the honey, I found it tough.

I mix mine - 2 tbsp with apple cider or apple juice, and seltzer water. It makes a good non-alcoholic "beer."

My dentist told me it was good for the gums, and helped with cold sores, which I suffer from about twice a year. But I haven't had one since my regular dose of ACV at night.
