Apple Cider Vinegar

Apple Cider Vinegar (acv) has been used for centuries as a food and a medicine.  It can be used on pets too.  Acv is natural product resulting from the fermentation of apple juice and then again a second fermentation to vinegar.  ACV retains all the nutrition of the apples from which it was made plus it is fortified with the extra acids and enzymes produced during the fermentation(s).

ACV can be used to sooth sunburns, insect bites, kill poison ivy and other weeds, make your hair shine, and to treat dandruff.  It can also be used as a natural home cleanser.

  This is my store bought, organic, apple cider.

Many store bought apple cider vinegars have been pasteurized, filtered, refined or distilled in order to make the product look good, and become more appealing to the consumer.  The problem is this extra processing destroys much of the health benefits that were in the product to begin with.  It is possible to make your own acv.  In fact, this has been done for centuries and is supposed to be very easy to do.  I'm seriously considering it.
