Apple cider vinegar is made by fermenting ripe apples, the it has a host of nutrients including pectin, beta carotene, other vitamins, minerals like potassium, magnesium, sodium, phosphorus, calcium, sulfur, iron, chorine, and fluorine. The calcium in this vinegar helps for growth and development, pectin which is a soluble fiber helps to decrease the cholesterol levels and also helps to lose weight, beta carotene helps to neutralize the harmful free radicals in the body there by decreasing the oxidative stress. Apple cider vinegar also has natural antibacterial and anti fungal properties which helps in fighting infections.

Prefer unfiltered organic apple cider vinegar over crystal clear white sparkling vinegar. This is because the steaming process used to clear the vinegar destroys most of the healthy nutrients in the clear white vinegar.

Mix 2 tablespoon diluted apple cider vinegar with equal amounts of honey (skip honey if you have diabetes) in warm water and drink daily in the morning.
