Benefits of Apple Cider Vinegar

Apple Cider Vinegar has a few medicinal benefits that I have read about and started to try and many, many household uses.

From what I have read and had my father try, is taking Organic Apple Cider Vinegar to help cut down his cholesterol level to a more normal range, because my father doesn't want to have to take medicine everyday for the rest of his life.

Another positive thing about Apple Cider Vinegar is that if you take 2 tablespoons 3 times a day it will help you lose weight, its mostly water weight but it will help motivate those people who don't have any motivation without a little bit of a jump start. But it does make you have to urinate more than normal. Do not do this while pregnant, due to the fact that you loose weight.

As for the household uses of Apple Cider Vinegar I have used it to catch fruit flies (put about an inch worth in the bottom of a soda bottle, a little bit of water and about 2 drops of dish soap DO NOT SHAKE ... And let it sit open on your counter or in the area you have a problem with fruit flies. You will catch a bunch in no time.

I also use Apple Cider Vinegar for a drain cleaner/ garbage disposal cleaner. I take a box of Arm and Hammer Baking Soda, pour some down the drain and pour some Apple Cider Vinegar down the drain until it stops foaming, and then I pour some more in and let it sit for about 4 hours before I run any water. After the four hours are up I turn on the hottest water I can get and wash out the sink, tub, or whatever, and the drains not only smell better, they are clean and clog free (apple cider vinegar can eat through dead hair in a heartbeat).

I have also used the combo of a Baking Soda Paste with water, and put it on the grout in my bathroom and then put Apple Cider Vinegar on it to get all the dirt to the surface, then wipe clean with water.

You can also use Apple Cider Vinegar to clean out your coffee pot by running it through with some water ... a few times. You might get a small after taste in your first few pots of coffee after you've cleaned it but its better to have a clean coffee pot than a nasty one.

If you haven't tried any of these you really should cause its cheaper than most cleaning supplies and most medicinal stuff on the market. You will be surprised at the results.
