The Secret Behind Apple Cider Vinegar – Multiple
Uses For Every Day Maladies
James Calvin
Do you remember the old saying, “An apple a day keeps the
doctor away?” Well that saying is supported by the facts that
we have gathered about apples. They are amount the most health
giving fruits available and contain beneficial vitamins and
minerals. Some of those included are potassium, magnesium,
calcium, phosphorous, iron and the central ingredient, apple
cider vinegar.
Apple cider vinegar breaks down fatty, mucous and phlegm that
are in the body therefore improving the health and function of
your liver, bladder, and kidneys. It also helps thin the blood,
which prevents high blood pressure. It also promotes digestion,
the assimilation in the body and the elimination process. It
helps get rid of toxic substances that can be harmful. It has
been said that if you take a mixture of cider vinegar and water
before a meal it will help prevent diarrhea or digestive upsets.
This works especially well for picnics when food is left
uncovered and not refrigerated for long periods. The potassium
in apple cider vinegar also is helpful in easing the symptoms
of common colds and allergies. Potassium is essential to
healthy bones and teeth and it’s good for hair loss.
Apple cider vinegar can be taken in many different forms. The
best method is by using it in its natural liquid form. You can
use it in salad dressings, making mayonnaise, or sprinkled on
chips and fries. It also can be used as a hot or cold beverage
sweetened with natural honey.
Cider vinegar can detoxify the body of harmful elements that
can cause such things as boils, blisters, and acne. It also
helps in the clotting process and cleaning the blood in your
body. Cider vinegar applied as hot compresses to the aching
joints of the body can also reduce inflammation and pain. It
has also been known to treat such ailments as nose bleeds,
cancer, gallstones, kidney stones, hay fever, ear discharge,
fatigue, muscle cramps, and diarrhea. Depression is also
supposed to be helped by taking cider vinegar.
One of the latest crazes in weight loss is the use of apple
cider vinegar. I see it as coming around in cycles as a weight
loss tool. Since you can now find apple cider vinegar in
tablets, it is easy to take as a supplement to help in your
weight loss program. Of course, always check with your doctor
before starting any weight loss program. It’s been said that it
helps increase metabolism, generates energy and reduces hunger.
It is safe enough that even children with weight problems can
take the supplements. Many diets advocate eating an apple
before each meal. This gives the extra boost of the metabolism
as well as lessens your appetite before eating.
For postmenopausal women, the risk of bone loss is greater than
in younger women. A supplement of apple cider vinegar has
magnesium, silicone and calcium and magnesium, which have all
been linked to sustaining, bone mass.
In addition, Vitamin C, vitamin E, Vitamin A, B2 and B6,
Vitamin P and beta-carotene is also found in trace amounts.
These additional minerals and vitamins help your body by
boosting metabolism, reducing the dangerous LDL cholesterol,
reducing water retention in the body, and regulating blood
pressure. It’s said to also increase concentration and memory,
blood circulation, regulating body temperature and gives us
more energy.
Yeast infections can also be impacted by apple cider vinegar.
It’s caused by a yeast imbalance in your body sometimes caused
by a change in diet or taking antibiotics. A douche of two
tablespoons of apple cider vinegar to a quart of lukewarm water
helps restore the acid balance in your body. You should do this
twice a day until the symptoms go away.
In looking at all the benefits of apple cider vinegar, it seems
that having an apple a day is a very healthy start to a good
diet plan and healthy eating. It must be noted that apple cider
vinegar can be bought in capsule form, but for those of you who
are purist, you can make your own at home. You make apple cider
vinegar from winter and fall varieties of apples. There are
quite a few steps involving in making this at home; one of the
important things to remember is to make this mixture in glass,
plastic, wood, enamel or stainless steel containers. Don’t use
metal containers because the acid will cause corrosion of metal
or aluminum.
