    Apple cider vinegar is an old folk remedy claimed to be beneficial in treating a long list of ailments. Proponents say that it can cure arthritis, guard against osteoporosis, lower blood pressure and cholesterol, prevent cancer, destroy infection, assist in digestion and weight control, maintain memory, and protect the mind from aging. Its all bull-crap, hippies and health nuts are so stupid, they believe anything. Acids in your joints cause arthitis so you put those acids into soloution by drinking acid...please. Also it is said that the bacteria reminants from the conversion are filled with vitamins and antioxidents...just take a f-ing mega-man. There is no medicinal value for acetic acid that I know of.

    No doubt it will work for that. The acetic acid in vinegar lowers stomach acidity (increases its pH) since acetic acid is a weaker acid than natural stomach acid (hydrochloric acid). I would go for the calcium carbonate though instead (tums), has a heck of a lot more acid reducing power than drinking a weak acid. But, whatever works for you. Try pepcid complete, famotidine + calcium carbonate, in other words pepcid and tums combined.

    A study done at ASU shows it may help improve insulin sensitivity.

    I mix it with salt and drink small amounts every half hour when I get a sore throat and it works within about 2 hours. The acidity of the salt and vinegar basically just kill the bacteria in your throat. Tastes f'n terrible though.

    Vinegar makes my sweat smell BAD. With that said, I make a salad dressing with apple cider vinegar and probably stink bad at the gym but I don't really care.
