How to Drink Vinegar for Health Reasons

Raw, organic apple cider vinegar boasts various health-enhancing properties. This murky-looking substance may look unappealing; however, many of its proponents claim that it has health benefits such as aiding in weight loss, balancing cholesterol levels, increasing stamina, alleviating symptoms of gout, alleviating painful arthritis symptoms, improving digestion, fighting allergies, alleviating constipation and preventing urinary tract infections. The vinegar naturally fights off bacteria and contains elements and minerals such as copper, phosphorus, sulfur, silicon, potassium, magnesium, chlorine, iron, calcium and fluorine, all of which contribute to your health. Advocates of apple cider vinegar recommend preparing a "cocktail" for optimal health advantages.
