Amazon.com : Bragg Organic Apple Cider Vinegar with the Mother - (2 Pack) 16 fl oz - Raw and Unfiltered : Grocery & Gourmet Food (original) (raw)

As the owner of a chicken rescue/habitat I look into many cures and as a weight loss coach, I've known about apple cider vinegar for people for a long time. As someone who studies canine nutrition, it also comes up often, and as someone who is healthy, this has long been known as a cure-all...back generations upon generations.

Organic chicken farmers across the nation put apple cider vinegar (raw like this)(just a few tsp in a big waterer) in the waterers. Otherwise, mold grows in waterers and mold is toxic to birds. Yep, it kills bacteria naturally THAT well--both outside and inside the body. Better yet, it's a natural wormer...and if you ate grass all day you'd need a natural wormer too.

It's not just a wormer though...this kills lots of bad bacteria in the gut, while leaving the good. So it naturally rids pets and people of parasites and bad bacteria without anything harmful--in fact, it's REALLY good for you in many ways.

This may be one of the reasons it also cures acne and gives you a glowing complexion.

The recent weight loss studies are extreme in their results...it coats your stomach and stops your blood sugar from spiking...even good Ol Dr. Oz says it works...stops cravings, put it on a salad before you go out to eat and you'll even eat less. If I am between meals and dieting, I do a shot of apple cider vinegar or eat it on a salad. It really works. Long term use results in you not craving things like sweets.

Here are some other goodies:

Diabetes. The effect of vinegar on blood sugar levels is perhaps the best-researched and the most promising of apple cider vinegar's possible health benefits. Several studies have found that vinegar may help lower glucose levels.

High cholesterol . A 2006 study showed evidence that vinegar could lower cholesterol. However, the study was done in rats, so it was too early to know how it might work in people. More studies since have proven this to work.

Blood pressure and heart health. Another study found that vinegar could lower high blood pressure. A large observational study also found that people who ate oil and vinegar dressing on salads five to six times a week had lower rates of heart disease than people who didn't. A new study found 2 servings per day cured high blood pressure naturally in many patients after two weeks.

Cancer . A few laboratory studies have found that vinegar may be able to kill cancer cells or slow their growth. It is used in naturopathic medicine.

Weight Loss . For thousands of years, vinegar has been used for weight loss and has been shown to help curb hunger. A 2005 study found that those who ate a piece of bread along with small amounts of vinegar felt fuller and more satisfied than those who just ate the bread. Consequent studies have shown the stabilization in blood glucose has also helped with weight loss and cravings with very strong evidence.

Though it may be hard for others, many drink this in water...mix with a sweetener of your choice. You get used to it!

You could just have it on a salad, or do a couple shots per day.

I have cured sick animals with it...my chickens love the taste of it in their water. I put it in there often as a preventative so I don't have to medicate with toxic chemicals. Only a small amount...they still need fresh water! Just a few tsp for a big waterer.

It has also cured some things for me...it really helps with having flawless radiant skin and because I work out a lot the sweat can lead to clogged pores. This seems to balance the pH of the body and lower bacteria naturally even in your pores.

I know the farmers who use it to cure animals naturally on organic farms say that ridding the body of negative things in the gut and internally wiping out bad bacteria and replacing it with the positive "mother enzymes" in raw organic apple cider vinegar can change everything.

It is my understanding that raw organic apple cider is the best.

I can say I've seen it rid the body of things and I have seen overnight changes and I have seen great weight loss and I have seen clearer skin.

Oh, did I mention many use it as an anti-aging elixer?

There are actually entire books on raw apple cider vinegar cures.

I don't think the brand of raw apple cider vinegar matters...but the raw kind is not as easy to find and so I do buy Bragg who makes theirs that way..but it's not the brand that matters, it's the drink that matters no matter who you get it from; it's good for you..and your pets.

Note: do not use this ALL the time in water for dogs as too much acidity can hurt their teeth; just rotate it.
