4 Lessons Learned From Drinking Apple Cider Vinegar With Every Meal

The Assyrians of ancient Babylon were known to use Apple Cider Vinegar some 12,000 years ago

Even the ancient Egyptians and Greeks used this amazing drink to treat several ailments at the time.

This fermented juice from crushed apples is very rich in minerals and vitamins, some of these include the following;

• Acetic acid
• Citric acid
• Biotin
• Vitamin C
• Vitamins B1
• Vitamin B2
• Vitamin B6
• Pantothenic acid
• Folic acid
• Pectin
• Magnesium
• Sodium
• Niacin
• Calcium
• Phosphorous
• Potassium
• Iron

For a healthy dietary plan it wouldn’t hurt to incorporate apple cider vinegar into your daily diet.

You can use apple cider vinegar in your mayonnaise, salad dressings as well as other recipes.

Diluting it in water or in one of your beverage of choice is not a bad idea. However, it is recommended that you add 1-2 teaspoons only to your beverage or water, this should constitute your daily consumption of apple cider vinegar.

If you have flu or the common cold then you can add 1 tablespoon of raw natural honey to 2 tablespoons of apple cider vinegar in a glass of water to be taken two times daily.

It is believed that this mixture is also helpful if you intend shedding weight, treating wounds and fading out scaring. It is also known to be effective in the treatment of certain types of cancer.

Drinking Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) With Your Daily Meals Improves Your Health In These Four (4) Ways:

1. Better Absorption Of Iron:

ACV helps our body to absorb iron better. It will help to release iron from the food we consume.

Our haemoglobin and myoglobin consist of iron. The myoglobin and haemoglobin help to convey oxygen to all the cells in our body. This oxygen helps in burning calories that converts to the energy that our body needs.

2. ACV Helps To Regulate Blood Sugar Levels:

ACV will reduce the blood sugar as well as insulin responses in the body. This is good news for diabetics and those with pre-diabetes. It is believed that taking 2 tablespoons of ACV before you go to bed can lower blood sugar by as much as 4%.

3. ACV Increases Satiety:

When you eat foods high in carbohydrates and drink ACV you get a feeling of being full.

This help in curbing cravings that could lead to you eating more than necessary and causing you to add excessive weight in the process.

It has been proven in a study conducted that drinking ACV with a high-carb meal will make people eat less for the entire day (about 209-275 calories less).

In obese individuals consuming ACV daily led to lower blood triglycerides, weight loss, reduced belly fat and waist circumference.

Over a twelve week period the study revealed the following results;

• Consuming 1 tbsp daily made them loss 2.6 pounds.
• Consuming 2 tbsps daily caused subjects to lose 3.7 pounds.

Shedding weight with ACV as the test results suggest is better when it is consumed gradually but consistently.

4. ACV Is Known To Be Effective Against Esophageal Cancer:

It is a well-known fact that in China drinking ACV is effective in reducing esophageal cancer.

ACV helps to alkalize the body which is important when trying to combat or prevent cancer as cancerous cells thrive in an acidic environment.

Taking a mixture of ACV and baking soda will reduce the bicarbonates your pancreas generates. By so doing your body is properly oxygenated and alkalized making it unsuitable for cancer growth.
