Natural Health Question: The Benefits of Apple Cider Vinegar

Now for years I have been hearing about the health benefits of Apple Cider Vinegar. It's supposed to be a great aid in weightloss, "cleansing the body," even getting rid of headaches. I personally can't vouch for this as I haven't been consistent in my daily intake of ACV shots (take a shot glass full every morning). But have others heard of the benefits of ACV? Any one can share their experience?

I've heard mostly weight loss, due to helping boost your metabolism. For a while about a year ago, I was taking 2 pills 3 times a day before meals, along with vitamins, but not sure that it or the exercise was helping.

I use it daily it helps my stomach. Sometimes we eat things that deleat our acids in the stomach, some call it heartburn, i take vinagar and the burn goes away. sometimes we need to add acid to digest food it is not heart burn. If the vinegar does not work then it is to much acid. Taking tums etc can cause more harm then good.

It does have a lot of vitamins and antioxidants that are very good for you.

for ENERGY!!!! also as apple cider vinegar is in the alkaline list(white is acid), it helps
your body in that you are supposed to be 80% alkaline...20%acid for healthy balance.

I have heard it helps with stomach issues and even ear problems (drop in the ear of course), and even skin problems. It's helped me. I can't take a huge amount at a time, but smaller doses a couple times a day. If nothing else- it can't hurt you like some medications can!
