Who knows what to believe about health these days? Every
website, health care provider, and medical research professional has a
different claim about the safety, efficacy, and wisdom of taking various dietary
supplements. When you start listening to the wives tales and suggestions of
family members and elders in your community, the information overload can be
altogether off-putting. Apple cider vinegar may be one of these so I’m not
going to bother adding more “data”, “studies”, or “research”. I will say simply
this, I take a shot of apple cider vinegar every morning and I love it. I have felt more evenly energetic and less hungry or interested in snacking
since starting. Additionally, I know no better relief for a sore throat. From
years of singing, I have developed a deep appreciation for hot water with a shot of apple cider vinegar and a table spoon of honey.
Nurse it all day and keep that sore throat at bay. Everything else aside, if
you are trying to bring more local and homemade foods into your diet, this is
one of the easiest ways to start.
After all, vinegar is nothing more than juice
that has gone “bad”!
