Anyone use APPLE CIDER VINEGAR? What has been your experience?

It was great on my salad.

I tried it for a few weeks. I didn't notice any incredible benefits, but I may not have used it for long enough. It certainly didn't cause any problems, though. It's probably worth a shot. Worst case scenario is you drink some weird-tasting water and nothing else happens.

Yep. Good to keep around for use in marinades, salad dressings, and sauces.

You'll only feel anything if you have some sort of ailment. If you want to add it to your diet use it on sales with olive oil.

I had a uti a few weeks ago and drank some, cured it in like an hour.

See, this is how I got on my google binge. I had a weird cyst thing on my chin that seemed to be draining into a lymph node on my neck causing it (the node) to swell to damn near the size of a golf ball. After two days of that I started to get a bit worried and found anecdotes of ACV being great for reducing the size of swollen lymph nodes. Within literally hours of the first tablespoon of ACV the thing was half the size, and then after another tablespoon today it is back down to almost normal. Totally bizarre. I do think it was the ACV because I had a cyst in this same area around five years ago and the node just stayed swollen for about a month.

I'm going to keep mixing 1Tbs with my juice mix each day for a few weeks and see if I notice anything else. Might be a placebo or something totally unrelated, but I did feel unusually "good" today for lack of a better word.

I had a very similar experience but ACV did nothing.

Lately, it seems that there's a group of people trying to promote the selling of apple vinegar with claims of miraculous cures. They hope that people searching ACV on google will end in a message board where people are saying that the vinegar solved their health issues.

For me, it was not vinegar, it was calamari. I had plantar fascitis during months. Doctors told me that they didn't have any more answer. Until i started eating calamari. In two days I was running again. I improved my mile time and my marathon time thanks to calamari as well.

calamari also cured my plantar fasciitis

Big fan of it in my cole slaw dressings.

vingegar has the same ph as our body, so it's good for skin conditions and stuff like that. it won't cure you of any disease. if it could then it would have been taken over by pharma and it would cost thousands of dollars.

This is spot on. I've used in on skin outbreaks and it seems to help but as a "miracle" cure of some sort.... ridiculous.

Calamari have the same acidosis as the ocean, the place from where all live creatures come. That's why it cures plantar fascitis. I know it sounds weird... But it worked for me!

I take a small amount diluted with water several times a week. Haven't noticed any super astonishing benefits, but it did help alleviate some heartburn I was experiencing. It does seem to boost energy and can work as an alternative to coffee. Also recommended if you need a good piss and possibly for hangovers. Make sure you get a natural and organic brand, not the cheap commercial stuff.

Skin pH varies between 4 and 7, with 5 being a normal value (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/18489300).

Vinegar has a pH of around 2 (http://chemistry.about.com/od/acidsbases/a/phtable.htm)

Do you know what substances have the same pH of the skin?

Urine, saliva, milk, black coffee and blood

I suggest you to take a bath on that if you have skin problems again

Apple cider vinegar & ground eggplant can successfully treat basal cell carncinoma skin cancer as a topical ointment over a 2 - 3 week period. Don't tell my dermatologist.

Recommended for cleaning toilets.

For the last 2 years I have been buying it in gallon bottles and bathing in it once a week. It works great. It has prevented me from catching cancer, ebola, or zika virus during that whole time. My running is about the same but compared to avoiding cancer it's worth it.

This thread is a good example of why I finally stopped coming here.

Because you expected a serious discussion of the medical benefits of drinking apple cider vinegar?
