DH heard from his friend/workout buddy/coworker how AMAZING ACV is and brought home two bottles from WF on Friday.
We've been taking it (when we remember) in OJ or water.
Any regular takers? What benefits have you seen?
-
I didn't know it was supposed to be good for you.
-
@Leialou: apparently, it helps with a lot of stuff! hair shine, colds, digestion, wt loss, appetite, etc.
-
I have heard a lot of benefits of it. I use just regular apple juice to help with heartburn.
-
@mrsjyw: you need to update us so we can all go out and get some ACV if it's as good as he says. How much do you take?
I've only heard it's a great sore throat remedy...you have to drink a glassful.
-
@mrsjyw: interesting! I do love vinegar. I might have to give it a try.
-
@sandy: we just do a few tbsps in water or oj. i couldn't handle more than that... hvaen't noticed much yet since it's only been a few days. Bragg's ACV says to take 3x a day.
-
@mrsjyw: I use it, I just mix into water and drink. We get the non-filtered kind with the mother still in it since apparently that's what's good for you. I am not sure if I've really seen any benefits! Definitely not shinier hair, I just got a KILLER cold, and I'm not trying to lose weight, so I am not sure about that aspect. Maybe I'm not taking enough? I don't know...
-
I have no idea about health benefits BUT it is the main ingredient in fattoush salad (the special dressing) so I have it in my home at ALL times for my salads. Yum.
Eta: so I asked my mom and she said it has antibacterial properties and can keep digestive tract cleared. Hm

I was coming down with a bad sore throat on Saturday morning. I took 2tbs of straight ACV 3x that day... And the next day, my sore throat was completely gone! I was also drinking hot water with lemon and honey all day.
I didn't even have the Bragg's brand on hand... just another organic brand from a local grocery store. But I do think it made a big difference with my sore throat!

@IRunForFun: I think you have to put it in your hair to make it shinier!
-
I have a spray bottle in the shower with apple cider vinegar and water. I use it twice a week or so to rebalance the Ph of my scalp. After LO, my hair got super greasy. I started to break out with some eczema on my scalp. Using it has helped so much with the eczema and dandruff.
-
@spaniellove: Ohhhh. Duh! I hadn't heard of the shiny hair thing before today!
-
@cascademom: same here! I've been using it ever since my scalp got funky with both pregnancies. Its the only thing that has helped with flakes.
-
I took it and unfortunately had some side effects from the detox. I had to reduce my intake
-
Gets rid of breakouts if you use it like toner.
-
@Cchoi4: It's been awesome for my hair postpartum. I wish that I would have done it sooner. It makes such a huge difference. My friend whose a makeup/beauty junkie said that my hair smelled good. I told her my secret and she was surprised.
-
I use it when I'm sick, and at one time I took it regularly and it cured an infected toenail I'd had from years of dancing.
Also, not postpartum but rinsing my hair with ACV once in a while really helps to make it nice and remove buildup
-
I took it for quite awhile to help with cleansing/liver function and PCOS. Haven't taken it recently, but it was great! I also used it as toner on my face.
-
@CupQuakeWalk: and now I want fattoush!
