Raw apple cider vinegar is a naturally fermented food that contains enzymes which help break down accumulated body fat. Many people drink a glass of water with two tablespoons of apple cider vinegar after each meal. Even if you don't need to lose weight, the vinegar has many healing properties. Some of the best apples in the world are grown right here in the North Georgia mountains. There are dozens of apple orchards from Atlanta to Blairsville.
ACV is rich in potassium and has trace vitamins and minerals needed by the body for optimal health. Apple cider vinegar is a natural antibiotic and germ fighter. Drinking a daily tonic will help with digestion and gastric upsets.
Naturally, ACV is made from apples, not grain. The apple is well-known for its healing abilities. The apple contains vitamins, minerals, fiber, and antioxidants, all of which are found in the cider. Raw cider has not been pastureized, which kills most of the healthy benefits of apple vinegar.
Soak a cotton ball in ACV and blot the skin with it after a sunburn. Apple cider vinegar is very good for the skin. It makes an excellent natural cleanser and leaves skin looking healthier. ACV is a great treatment for acne. Mix a teaspoon of ACV in one-fourth cup of water. Blot the vinegar on acne with a clean cotton ball.
For sore, achy muscles, pour a 16-oz. bottle of vinegar into a tub of warm water and soak for 30 minutes. This works well for arthritis, also. Soak a washcloth in the vinegar, wring out the excess, and place it on the forehead for relief of headaches.
