APPLE CIDER VINEGAR:
Like salt, vinegar has a long and illustrious history. It’s been traced to Egyptian urns as
far back as 3000 B.C., and Hippocrates, known as the father of medicine, used it to treat
his patients. The Babylonians used vinegar as a condiment and preservative, while
Julius Caesar’s army used it in a tonic to help maintain health and ward off disease. The
Greeks and Romans kept vessels filled with vinegar for healing and flavoring in Biblical
times it was used as an antiseptic and a healing agent—it’s even mentioned in the Bible.
Christopher Columbus and his crew brought along barrels of vinegar to prevent scurvy on
their trip to discover America. And for centuries the feared Samurai warriors in Japan
drank it for strength and power.
But, similar to the situation with salt, the vinegar that appears on most dinner tables today
is a far cry from the substance our ancestors used for staying healthy. Just as salt has
been refined and “purified” over the years to such an extent that it no longer possesses
any of its health-giving components, the same is true with vinegar. In fact, the most
popular vinegar in supermarkets today is actually a clear, white version created by a food
chemist from coal tar!! And because uninformed consumers often buy with their eyes,
most people purchase this poor imitation of the real thing because it "looks good",
although it has no real nutritional value.
They don’t know what they’re missing because natural (undistilled), raw apple cider
vinegar (ACV) is one of nature’s most perfect foods. And health pioneers Paul and
Patricia Bragg made it part of their life’s work to re-educate the public about its many
virtues. One of the main reasons raw, unpastuerized ACV is so good for you is that it
contains cobweb-like substances called “the mother,” which can, unfortunately, make the
mixture look cloudy and downright unappetizing to people with its floating “globs of brown
stuff” at the bottom. Some people might even mistakenly think that it’s a sign that the
vinegar has “gone bad,” when actually just the opposite is true. Distilling not only
destroys “the mother” and powerful enzymes, but also removes life-giving minerals like
potassium, silicon, and trace elements. The distillation process also destroys the natural
malic and tartaric acids, which are important in fighting body toxins and inhibiting
unfriendly bacteria. So distilled vinegars are basically just flavoring agents and nothing
more.
But fortunately, because of the Braggs and other natural health practitioners, people are
now re-discovering the many benefits of ACV, which are many!
It helps:
• promote youthful skin & a healthy body
• remove artery plaque & body toxins
• fight germs, viruses, bacteria & mold naturally
• retard the aging process in humans, pets & farm animals
• regulate calcium metabolism
• keep blood the right consistency
• regulate menstruation & relieve PMS & UTI
• normalize urine pH, relieving the frequent urge to urinate
• digestion, assimilation & balance pH
• relieve sore throats, laryngitis & throat tickles, and cleans out throat & gum toxins
• detox the body so sinus, asthma & flu sufferers can breathe easier & more normally
• banish acne & athlete’s foot, & soothe burns & sunburns
• treat itchy scalp, baldness, dry hair, dandruff, rashes, & shingles
• fight arthritis & remove crystals & toxins from joints, tissues, organs & the entire body
• control & normalize body weight
Wow! That’s quite a list for something so simple and inexpensive! And it can be used as
a mouthwash, to help relieve constipation, improve memory, alleviate “brain fog,” and
much more! Many famous people and health practitioners make a habit of drinking the
“tonic” listed in A Healthier You from the Inside Out, where you combine 1-2 tsps. ACV
with 1-2 tsps. honey in 8 oz. distilled or filtered water, several times a day. Women going
through menopause have had great success in dealing with hot flashes by taking the
mixture 3 to 4 times a day. Paul Wenner, the creator of Gardenburger, used it as part of
his asthma cure, and Gabriel Cousens, MD, author of Conscious Eating and Spiritual
Nutrition, has said that “The use of Bragg organic apple cider vinegar is a wonderful
health aid, the #1 food I recommend in helping to maintain the body’s vital acid-alkaline
balance.”
And for those of you out there interested in shedding some pounds, you will be happy to
know that ACV helps with that, as well. Since it naturally supports your body in getting rid
of excess fluids, and works to speed up a slow metabolism and "curb" your appetite, you’
ll have yet one more reason for adding ACV to your daily health regimen.
AND ACV can clean almost anything in your house. Just add liquid castile soap, filtered
water, and essential oil (optional) to some ACV and you have an environmentally-friendly
mixture for cleaning floors, the bathroom, kitchen, etc. It can also be used as a fabric
softener and in the wash cycle to prevent fabrics from fading. Try vinegar and water as a
non-toxic way to clean windows, but be sure to use a micro fabric cloth for wiping—
instead of newspaper, which contains toxic dyes. And you can help keep your drains
unclogged by sprinkling some baking soda down them, followed by ACV. Let the mixture
bubble for 15 min., then rinse with hot water. Baking soda and ACV also makes a
wonderful spa-like bath for soaking away aches and pains and detoxing the body. It’s
almost hard to believe that something so simple and inexpensive could have so many
benefits and uses! No home should be without it!
