Apple cider vinegar is a very effective treatment for arthritis. Acid crystals are found everywhere in the body but when they form in the joints the joint becomes stiff and painful, prematurely aged if you like.
One or two teaspoons of cider vinegar, a dash of honey, dissolved in a glass of warm water and taken twice a day will help your body break down the crystals that have formed in the joints. While this is not a cure for arthritis it will make living with the condition much easier. The joints will feel younger and more like a well oiled joint should.
Apple cider vinegar can also be used as a local treatment for painful swollen joints. Make a solution of one part cider vinegar to six parts warm water. A painful hand or foot can be soaked in this solution for ten minutes three times a day. You can also soak a flannel in the warm solution and apply it to painful knees,elbows or which ever joint is causing you problems. Again, this should be done three times daily.
As I said before, Apple cider vinegar will cure the pain of arthritis, not cure the arthritis itself.
You should try it-what have you got to loose? Stiff painful joints of course!!

Having suffered from breast cancer I am careful about what I eat and what I put on my skin. I no longer use chemical deodorants which contain large amounts of aluminum but instead use a deodorant made from Apple cider vinegar.
Its easy to make and cheaper than over the counter deodorants. I perfume the deodorant with lavender oil but any perfumed oil can be used.
1 part water
1 part cider vinegar
a few drops of lavender oil
Simply mix together and put in a spray bottle. When applied to the skin the vinegar smell will evaporate within a few minutes and you will remain fresh and dry all day long with your homemade Apple cider vinegar deodorant.

To make the cider vinegar mixture dilute it with water-eight parts water to one part vinegar. Make sure the skin is clean and dry and apply the cider vinegar mixture with a cotton wool ball. Allow to dry on the skin and that's all there is to it! Done morning and evening you should see a marked improvement within a few days.
Apple cider vinegar as a treatment for acne is cheap and quick. It can also be used in a stronger form to treat individual spots. Simply mix three parts water to one part vinegar and apply to the spot twice a day. This clears the infection and drys the spot.

It is commonly believed that heartburn is caused by excessive acid in the stomach. It actually occurs when there is not enough of the right acid to digest food correctly.
The acid in question is Hydrochloric acid and when there is not enough to digest food properly the food starts to break down and produce organic acids which cause heartburn. This is the start of a cycle. Most people at this stage will take an over the counter antacid which neutralise the acid and HEY they feel better. Only for a while though. The action of the antacid leaves the stomach alkaline and more hydrochloric acid is then produced to finish the digestion process. Hope this is all making sense!
Anyway and now to the point of this tale. Cider vinegar is rich in an acid called Malic Acid, which increases the acidity of the stomach therefore aiding digestion.
The favourite way of taking Apple Cider vinegar for heartburn in our house is in this tasty Apple Cider Vinegar Cocktail first used by the health pioneer Paul Bragg. Here is his recipe.
1 heaped teaspoon of honey
2 teaspoons of Apple cider vinegar
glass of warm water
Simply mix the ingredients together and drink.
