  • 1 to 2 teaspoons Bragg Organic Vinegar in 8 0z of purified water
    and (Optional) 1 to 2 teaspoons organic honey, 100% maple syrup, blackstrap molasses or 4 drops of Stevia.

I personally do 32 ounces of water, 2 Tablespoons Bragg ACV and Stevia and sip it throughout the day!

If you are using Bragg Apple Cider Vinegar to help aid in your weight loss...then the recommended amount is 3 Teaspoons of Apple Cider Vinegar to 8 oz of water, before every meal.

Along with this healthy ACV drink, there must be a
healthy reducing diet. This means that all refined,
processed, sugared products and beverages and all dairy
products are eliminated from your diet. The diet should
consist of a wide variety of fresh organic fruits; raw salads; Lean meats, fish, boneless skinless chicken breast, Turkey breast,
raw nuts and seeds; raw, steamed, baked or stir-fried
vegetables; brown rice; tofu; beans; and whole grain
pastas.


In addition, add 1 tsp. ACV to 6 ounces of salt-free tomato or fresh vegetable juice (carrot and greens) and drink between meals, daily.



Apple Cider Vinegar Zaps Sore Throat & Laryngitis
Organic, raw ACV is a dangerous enemy to all kinds of germs that attack the throat and mouth! To fight the germs and keep the throat healthy, an ACV gargle mixture works miracles (1 tsp. to 1/2 cup of water). Gargle 3 mouthfuls of mixture each hour, then spit it out. Don’t swallow the gargled mixture, because ACV acts like a sponge, drawing out throat and mouth germs and toxins. As the throat feels better, gargle every 3 hours.

ACV can be used to effectively relieve the pain and discomfort of cold sores. Apply ACV directly to the affected areas and the itching and burning discomfort will rapidly dissipate. ACV also helps the sores to heal more quickly.

Procedure for the Removal of Warts
Using Apple Cider Vinegar


For this simple procedure, the removal of warts using apple cider vinegar requires just 3 things:
  • Apple Cider Vinegar
  • Cotton balls (end of Q-tip will do)
  • Band-aid
Each night before going to bed soak a cotton ball in apple cider vinegar, apply it to the wart and then hold it in place with a band-aid. Leave it on all night, or if you like, 24 hours a day but change the soaked cotton and band-aid each evening for a week.

The wart will swell and may throb as it reacts with the vinegar and then start to turn black within the first two days and after a week or two will be completely gone.

N.B. It is important to continue the treatment for a few days to a week after the wart has fallen off to help ensure it does not come back.

ACV helps stop pain and itching from mosquito and other insect bites, bee stings and also it neutralizes the jellyfish’s painful venom. Use straight ACV on affected areas or diluted ACV compress often as needed.

ACV also helps middle ear infections and swimmer’s ear, a condition from swimming and showering, which may cause temporary loss of hearing. Dilute ACV with equal parts distilled water and drop into ear for ear infections, earaches and if you feel a blockage in your ears. Drug stores stock ear dropper syringes. If ear and skin problems persist, see a health professional.

For dandruff: put 2-3 Tbsps. ACV in cup – part hair in sections and sponge ACV directly on scalp and wrap head with towel. ACV helps restore proper acid/alkaline balance to scalp, do before every shampoo.

For bedwetting: Mix 2 to 1 tsp. buckwheat honey with 2 tsp. ACV before bedtime. It’s also best to stop liquids 3 hours before bedtime, except for small sips.

Fight Arthritis: Hard, stony deposits fill up, cement, enlarge and cripple the joints! Crippling, painful arthritis and joint problems are the sad result! Flush out those stony deposits with your daily ACV drinks.
