I am the mother of two children. I have had a hysterectomy. I have 40 pounds of baby weight to lose. My youngest is 4yrs. so it's time to take control of my body again. I take 1-2 teaspoons ACV raw unfiltered (from the local health food store), with 2 Tbl. honey, and 12oz. filtered water. I started taking it b/c my mother in law gave it to me to use for a canker sore. I healed my canker with another natural remedies and noticed the apple cider vinegar still sitting in my pantry. Feeling guilty I began to use it thinking it should be a healthy supplement... I have read so many comments and learned some interesting things. Like yeast infections- it makes sense to me... I haven't had one, but for those of you that have. Remember, with any new healthy vitamin or supplement to your diet, you must start slowly with very small amounts and build your way up to the actual dosage. I have been taking the ACV for three days now. I have lost a pound after being on a weight plateau for three weeks! I'm not sure if that is from the ACV or not. I will have to keep ya posted.:) I know that it helps with filling full longer and giving you energy and clarity of mind. Another side effect for me has been looser bowl movements. I have always had IBS but since I began working out the last two months, eating healthy and drinking over 64oz a day, my stool has changed and I had been some what constipated for the first time in my life. (It was actually a nice change, to not have my bowels cramping and feeling nauseated all the time; still, a bit uncomfortable. The ACV has helped with the constipation and eased the pressure in the bowels. I've taken my protein drink with fruit every morning for the last 6 weeks. Three days ago when I began the ACV I noticed that I stayed full longer and had more energy to accomplish everything on my list to do. (Even projects I have put off for years.) I began my strict workout routine under the direction of my personal trainer the first week of January. It is now the last week of February. Which has included 4 days of intense intermediate cardio with weight training, 2 days of cardio, 1 day of rest. (Each workout is no more than 1 hour a day). I also cut out all flour, starches, sugars, and carbs. I eat 5 times a day (every 2-3 hours) with a serving of protein and fresh/frozen fruit and/or fresh/frozen veggies (No more than 300 calories per meal). I don't eat less than 1200 calories per day. (Eating less than that halts all progress making your body think it is starving and it hangs on to fat for storage). I am never hungry. I lost 13 pounds in 2 1/2 weeks. Which was totally awesome for me! (I have never have lost more than 7 lbs. that quickly; and it always comes back on in a matter of days- since the birth of both of my children. That includes every diet and exercise that I've tried over the last 6 years.) The weight has stayed off! Until earlier this week I gained 1 lb. (could have been muscle- who knows), but it was depressing. Losing that pound again today, was a great feeling! I know that I feel even better; knowing that I am doing this the right way. No more yo-yo dieting. Even if it takes longer than the three months that my trainer told me it would take to drop the excess weight. I will continue the ACV along with the diet and workout plan I am currently on b/c of it's help with energy, bowels, and helping me to avoid that afternoon slump all day long.:) I take the ACV in the morning with my protein drink and in the evening with my last meal of the day." http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/Remedies/acvinegar.html&name=JOINT-PAIN_39205 /Remedies/acvinegar4.rss5 Mon, 22 Feb 2010 16:51:53 EST Safiyya from Philadelphia, Pa writes: "Hello I have a question reagrding ACV.

The people who produce and sell ACV should be the ones who educate the public on these matters but since the forum needs an answer (albeit a brief one) ..... here it is. Re Can ACV contain harmful bacteria or microbes? Most producers pasteurise or use other processes to eliminate the possibility of microbial contamination. The exception is ACV that is unfiltered and unpasteurised. Note that the yeast and bacteria species used by the manufacturer can remain in the final product. It is also possible that other environmental yeasts and bacteria could be present depending on the steps taken to prevent that happening. In production various types of yeast or bacteria can be used and no definite answer can be given regarding the bioimplications of everyone of them. Given that all of the microbes involved are present in nature and that thousands or people use the product on a daily basis it seems to be a low risk factor. Re EColi survival in ACV A study on the bacteriostatic and bactericidal properties of Vinegar concluded that Acetic Acid inhibited bacteria, including the dangerous strains of Ecoli, but to a lessor degree and effectiveness was lower when Rice Vinegar was used in comparison to spirit (white) vinegar. Title: [Antibacterial action of vinegar against food-borne pathogenic bacteria including Escherichia coli O157:H7 (Part 1). Examination of bacteriostatic and bactericidal activities] Author: Entani E , Asai M , Tsujihata S , Tsukamoto Y , Ohta M Source: Kansenshogaku Zasshi, 71(5): 443-50 1997 Abstract: Bacteriostatic and bactericidal activities of vinegar products against food-borne pathogenic bacteria including enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) O157:H7, and other bacteria were examined. By the presence of spirit vinegar at 0.1% acidity, the growth of 34 strains of bacteria was completely inhibited. Grain and rice vinegars also inhibited the growth of bacteria at the same acidity. These results suggest that vinegars have strong bacteriostatic activity. Bactericidal activity of vinegar products was measured. The order of their activities against E. coli O157:H7 strains was spirit vinegar > grain vinegar > rice vinegar. Susceptibility of 7 EHEC strains (6 E. coli O157:H7 isolated from 3 outbreaks and 1 E. coli O26:H11 from a sporadic case) to spirit vinegar was similar to each other, and much lower than that of an enteropathogenic E. coli O111:K58:H- strain. It indicates that these EHEC strains are rather acid-tolerant. The bactericidal activities of vinegars were independent of bacterial inoculum sizes, but were dependent of growth phase. Bacteria of logarithmic growth phase were more sensitive than those of stationary phase. Bactericidal activity of spirit vinegar profoundly depended on the reaction temperature. At higher temperatures, spirit vinegar killed bacteria much more rapidly. In 2.5% acidity vinegar, the times for the log3 reduction of cells were 4,516 min at 10 degrees C, 739 min at 20 degrees C, 137 min at 30 degrees C, 14.4 min at 40 degrees C, and 0.84 min at 50 degrees C, respectively. These results suggest that treatment with vinegar solution at handy temperatures ranged 40-50 degrees C may be one of the useful methods to prevent bacterial food poisoning. Re Is it safe to take ACV on a long term basis? There are some cautions advised regarding drug interaction and potassium sensitivity. http://www.clinicaladvisor.com/vinegar/article/140081/ "Drug interactions are possible, and patients who are sensitive to gastric pH levels are most at risk. Digoxin, insulin, and potassium-depleting diuretics are the most common medications to exhibit pH and potassium sensitivity. Patients who are taking any of these medications or who have any renal impairment need guidance from a health-care provider about a daily vinegar intake. The regimen is not recommended for pregnant or lactating women, or for young children." Other cautions apply to long term use, skin sores and swimmers ear. http://jdc325.wordpress.com/2007/09/24/apple-cider-vinegar/ Here we describe the case of a woman, in whom chronic ingestion of excessive amounts of cider vinegar caused serious health problems." What kind of health problems? Well, the article is entitled 'Hypokalemia, Hyperreninemia and Osteoporosis in a Patient Ingesting Large Amounts of Cider Vinegar'. Authors: Karl Lhotta, Günther Höfle, Rudolf Gasser, Gerd Finkenstedt. Ref: Nephron 1998;80:242-243 (DOI: 10.1159/000045180). Acetic acid is the volatile organic acid that gives vinegar its tart, sour flavor. Because it is produced by the fermentation of fruit, vinegar flavors and colors vary widely.1 FDA regulations require vinegars to contain a minimum of 4% acetic acid. White vinegar ranges from 4%–7% acidity, while cider and wine vinegars are usually in the 5%-6% range.2 One of the earliest medicinal uses for vinegar was in topical wound treatment. The basic efficacy of this practice has not changed over the centuries but is now tempered with caution, since acetic acid can also damage the dermal fibroblasts and keratinocytes essential for the wound to heal.3 Dilute vinegar solutions are also frequently used for otitis externa (so-called swimmer's ear). However, a 2003 pediatric study found this practice to be potentially damaging to outer cochlear hair cells, as well as to the skin lining the ear canal. And some more info on drug interactions: http://www.webmd.com/vitamins-supplements/ingredientmono-816-APPLE CIDER VINEGAR.aspx?activeIngredientId=816&activeIngredientName=APPLE CIDER VINEGAR Digoxin (Lanoxin) interacts with APPLE CIDER VINEGAR Large amounts of apple cider vinegar can decrease potassium levels in the body. Low potassium levels can increase the side effects of digoxin (Lanoxin). Insulin interacts with APPLE CIDER VINEGAR Insulin might decrease potassium levels in the body. Large amounts of apple cider vinegar might also decrease potassium levels in the body. Taking apple cider vinegar along with insulin might cause potassium levels in the body to be too low. Avoid taking large amounts of apple cider vinegar if you take insulin. Water pills (Diuretic drugs) interacts with APPLE CIDER VINEGAR Large amounts of apple cider vinegar can decrease potassium levels in the body. "Water pills" can also decrease potassium in the body. Taking apple cider vinegar along with "water pills" might decrease potassium in the body too much. Some "water pills" that can deplete potassium include chlorothiazide (Diuril), chlorthalidone (Thalitone), furosemide (Lasix), hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ, HydroDiuril, Microzide), and others " http://www.earthclinic.com/Redirect.php?pageLink=/Remedies/acvinegar.html&name=HIGHCHOLESTEROL_38876 /Remedies/acvinegar4.rss8 Sun, 14 Feb 2010 22:08:54 EST [YEA] Sathiananthen from Singapore writes: "Hi, I have been taking ACV for almost some time now.
