20 Uses for Apple Cider Vinegar
Do you remember those old remedies your grandma would share with you that were a "cure all" to any problem in her eyes? Well, Apple Cider Vinegar just may have been on her list. ACV is a type of vinegar made from cider or apple must and has a pale to medium color.
It's used in multiple types of dressings, marinades and sauces - among other things. ACV's produced by squeezing the juice out of an apple (which I have to admit, sounds like fun). Here are some benefits and clever uses for this awesome hidden gem:
1. Prevents the flu & stomach illness
2. Dissolves kidney stones
3. Helps reduce/prevent acne
4. Regulates pH balance in the body
5. Helps relieve nausea
6. Helps relieve heart burn or chronic acid reflux
7. Helps relieve asthmatics
8. Helps relieve allergies
9. Helps relieve gout
10. Help lower glucose levels in diabetics
11. Helps break down fat
12. Helps relieve migraines
13. Helps relieve sinus pressure & infection
14. Lowers blood pressure
15. Lowers cholesterol
16. Kills cancer cells or slows down growth
17. Reduces inflammation
18. Gets rid of buildup on scalp
19. Reduces or relieves arthritis
20. Gets rid of fingernail or toenail fungus
As you can see, ACV is very versatile and can be used for a number of things. It's also a great anti-bacterial cleaning agent. I enjoy mixing 2 tbsp of ACV with equal parts water for most remedies. Try incorporating these great ACV uses in your routine to see how they can improve your quality of living.
