Why you need Apple Cider Vinegar in your life

Apple Cider Vinegar is a liquid which is made from apple must or cider and can range from a pale to amber colour. This vinegar isn't just for cooking. It's actually one of the best things for you (if you're not allergic to it that is!) Organic apple cider vinegar is the way to go, because it contains "mother of vinegar" and that's the key component to its awesomeness. Here are some reasons why you should be using more apple cider vinegar:


  • Helps with weight loss by encouraging the liver to suppress body fat accumulation from cells
  • Studies have shown drinking 2 tablespoons of ACV a day can lower glucose levels in blood
  • Drinking it will raise HDL (good cholesterol) and lower the levels of triglycerides (bad cholesterol)
  • Helps to break up mucous throughout the body when suffering from allergies or a chest cold
  • Eases sinus congestion when consumed
  • Reduces the frequency and severity of headaches 

  • As odd as it sounds, ACV eases heart burn when consumed over time because it can heal the Esophagus and lower the amount of acid in your stomach, Do not drink however if you suffer from an ulcer
  • Very good for improving hair by adding shine and strength. Add 1 teaspoon to 2 cups water and rinse hair after shampooing
  • Improves the look and feel of skin by regulating pH and softening and diminishing dark spots. Wet a cotton ball with ACV/water mix and dab on face 3x weekly to see results
  • Can lower blood pressure and improve heart health
  • Removes skin tags and warts
  • Known to sooth sunburnt skin. Just add a cup of ACV to a bath to ease pain
  • Can give your body a natural boost of energy when feeling sluggish
  • Kills head lice and fleas. Many parents use an ACV/water mixture remedy on their children's hair or their pets fur
Try keeping it around your kitchen and using it a bit more. I'm sure you'll begin to see apple cider vinegar as a bit more useful!
