Menopause came on like a hurricane 5 months ago and the hot flashes were soaking me 8-10 times a day. I tried taking 2 tbs. of ACV in the morning and 2 tbs. At night in a glass of water - after gagging it down, decided I would rather deal with the hot flashes. Skip ahead a couple of weeks of waking up 4-5 times soaked every night and realized I could not deal with them!
I resolved to try the AVC again. This time I used 1 tbs. In a small glass of orange juice in a.m. and p.m. After only 2 days I started seeing a difference. At night, I've been getting a bit overheated but just kicking the covers off for a few minutes will cool me down. I haven't had a single soaking hot flash for the past few days. It has now been 1 week and I am totally hot flash free! I will continue to take this magic drink until I'm post menopausal. Thanks for all of your information - it has truly changed my life!

YEA--I read the comments about ACV working for hot flashes. Tried it 2 nights (1 TBSPN ACV--with the mother in 8 ounces of water), and the horrible hot flashes that have been around for 4 years (waking up 3 times a night) are completely gone. This site is amazing!

I had terrible night sweats for about 3 months and was very irritable during the day due to little sleep. I tried this remedy first with regular apple cider vinegar without results. It took about 5 days on the Mother kind and WOW I sleep like a baby. I also take estroven nighttime and I believe this combo is a winner. Try both you have nothing to lose.

Four days ago I was feeling quite desperate, even though I had searched the internet for help with hot flashes before I was suffering. I did not find ACV before. My hot flashes were coming about every two hours and lasting about 30 minutes. They were severe. After reading several testimonials, I got up went to the kitchen and looked to see if I even had any. Well as the powers that be are always lookin out for me there just happened to be a 1/2 gallon in the refrigerator.
I thanked God for the internet and ACV and took my first dose. They eased off immediately, only to disappear altogether by the next afternoon. Thanks everyone for sharing and good luck to you all. Keep spreading the word. Oh one more thing.... My legs feel better also and I havent had any feeling in three of my toes on my right foot for 3 to 4 years...... I can feel my toes the numbness is almost completely gone. Can I say the ACV made that happen???? I think so......

i really love this site, I was at my wits end with hot flashes, when I came across this site. I had tried everything from prescriptions to just dealing with them. I cannot take the over the counter stuff out for hot flashes because of the soy in them. I am estrogen receptive for breast cancer, so all I could really do was deal with them. When I read about apple cider vinegar helping with them I tried it and to my suprise it worked!!!! Right away. I have been on it for about 2 weeks, and they are almost down to none. The ones I do have are really light, I can handle them. And sleep at night!!!!! Yea! Thanks for this site!!! I would never had thought to try apple cider vinegar. Thank you

Started using Apple cider vinegar supplement capsules as I hate the taste of Apple Cider Vinegar. Have been taking 3 in the morning and 3 at night. Hot flashes are practically gone.

This is amazing! So simple and so effective. I'll be 50 soon and started having hot flashes about a year ago. Over the past month, they came much more often. Not terribly severe, but annoying and uncomfortable, especially when they happened throughout the night. As soon as I read this, I took 1 tablespoon of store-bought apple cider vinegar. It burned a bit going down for a few seconds, but was fine after that. Sometimes I take another tablespoon later in the evening. I always eat some food first. The miraculous results: no more hot flashes!!! Been taking it for over a week now... No hot flashes. It also fixed some mild heartburn I had started to experience. Yay!!!!! Try it... And spread the word!

This site is absolutely the best! I'm in menopause and for the most part have had hot flashes under control through use of Chinese herbs and something called Phyto-B. But over the past few days they started to come back with a vengence. I checked here and discovered the ACV cure and tried it (two doses yesterday and one this morning). The flashes that were starting to keep me up all night completely disappeared and I slept really well last night. Will see if it continues, but so far so good!
Also, I do have serious issues with dental enamel, so am adding 1/4 tsp baking soda and then immediately rinsing my mouth with an extra swish of baking soda in water.
Thanks to everyone here who contributes to making this such a great site!

When I found this site yesterday I was amazed at all the testamonials, so I tried the ACV and my hot flashes are almost completely gone! Thank you all for taking the time to share this information!! Like some of you, I am concerned about the amount of acid I'm ingesting. I think I'll try some baking soda in a couple of days. I take 2 Tbsp in a glass of flavored water which isn't too bad, but I also worry about that much aspartame, so I may go back to honey or stevia.

YEA!!!!!!!! I was soooo happy to find this site! I have suffered from hot flashes for over 3 years now and had gotten to the point that I was having one several times an hour. I began taking 2 tsps organic raw ACV mixed with water and organic stevia extract in the morning and evening about a week ago. I can't stand the smell or taste of vinegar, but was at wit's end, so I tried it. With the stevia, it is tolerable. I am now down to approximately 1 hot flash a day!!!!!!!! Wow Wow Wow Wow. Thank you ladies for the info, I am forever grateful.

Re: Apple Cider Vinegar for Hot Flashes - Just thought I'd let you know it's only been 12 days and the relief started @ day 1 and now I'm only having an occasional hotflash. Cannot tell you how happy I am to have learned about this site and ACV. Thank you so much.. Life is good again.

I was taking the store brand of apple cider vinegar for hot flashes. It was working very well. Then, I switched to the organic brand with "mother" in it because of testimonies I had read on the importance of using the raw organic ACV. Immediately, my stomach gurgled, churned, and I had terrible diarrhea. I stuck with it for a few days figuring it was just detox. Finally, not being able to stand it anymore, I switched back to the store brand that is filtered, and I am well again. Either way, my hot flashes go away. I take 1 tablespoon of ACV with 1/4 tsp. Baking soda mixed into about 1/2 cup water. It works perfectly!

I am taking 2 tbls in the morning and then again after my evening meal. I find it hard to take on an empty stomach because it is so acidic. All I can say is that I have experienced a 75% decrease in the number and 90% decrease in the intensity of my hot flashes in the past 3 days that I have taken the AVC. I do take it w/ 1/4 teasp. of baking soda just to cut the acid a bit more. I am pretty darn happy!
