I have had severe pain in my stomach for over a week. In the middle of the night I thought I was dying. I don't do doctors or allopathic medicine. I remember having read about apple cider vinegar but was always afraid to take it in case it made the pain worse. Last night I decided to walk through the fear and I drank 1 teaspoonful in warm water. Within minutes the pain subsided and I fell asleep. Just woke up and couldn't wait to find a place to post my results. So happy for a.c.v..

ACV knocked out my stomach cramps in 20 minutes
Been doubled over with sharp pains after forcing myself to finish a spinach omelette 2 days ago. Taking antacids afterwards was like drinking water. Finally got relief: 2 teaspoons of ACV, hot lavender tea, crushed ginger. Everything began subsiding in about 20 minutes .... amazing. I should have realized the benefits of natural remedies from the start. Thanks for the inspiration.

I can't believe how long I have waited to try this. I have gone to the emergency with what I felt was intense stomach pain that went around to my back. The pills given sort of worked within an hour or so but I had to take them daily and at a great cost. This treatment of organic apple cider vinegar had been recommended to me but I could not understand how vinegar could cure stomach acid. Well, desperation and vinegar were there so I took one tablespoon then took a drink of water. I would say less than one minute later it was all GONE!! And stayed that way for a week!!! This never happened with medicine. Now I take my shot of ACV about four times as week just as a preventative.

Tried your Apple cider vinegar for terrible stomach pain for three and a half days... the doctor gave me pain pills and diarrhea medicine did not cure the cause of pain within one hour and half stomach pain stopped and I finally got some sleep thank you so much.

Mindblowen. Have regulary taken ACV for hair, skin, and "just to consume it", but never thought it could "cure" pain.
Last night I ate a big carb meal right before going to sleep. And for some reason, when waking up today, I felt like crap.
Alot of gas, and stomach pain. Just felt really off. Quickly googles APV on stomach pain, and saw this site.
Took a good amount in my glass, filled rest with water, and drank it with a straw.
No idea behind the science but now the pain is going away (5 min after) and no longer feeling like crap:)
Weird coincidence or it actually works lol :)

After enduring a particularly nasty stomach virus I experienced sharp shooting pains in my stomach which ached right through my back. Nothing alleviated the cramping. I then though to try the ACV treatment. I took 1 tablespoonful of undiluted ACV; then about 1/2 hour later I ingested 1 tsp. diluted in a glass of water. Within 1 hour all pain was gone. Note I used regular ACV, the supermarket brand name.

Apple cider vinegar for an Upset Stomach.
1 cup warm water, approximately 1 TB raw honey and 1 TB apple cider vinegar, started feeling better after about 15 minutes.

For over a year my medical doctors have been unable to find a cause or treatment for my severe abdominal pain that had caused me to be unable to work full-time. They then labeled my problem "anxiety." I finally ran into the idea of hypochlorhydria (low stomach acid) and the use of apple cider vinegar and digestive enzymes. WOW! I had almost immediate relief! I even love the taste of the vinegar undiluted. I work for a medical clinic and am extremely disappointed in doctors' lack of knowledge in natural remedies and their insistence on labeling me as having stomach pain as a result of anxiety. I'm glad I accidentally came across this remedy. It has saved my life, in my opinion.

My dad consumes AVC and it works great for him. BUT when I drink AVC 3 tea spoon with full glass of water my stomach ache/hurts. I feel like vomiting. Why? How to deal with it?
I need to drink AVC to heal my knee pain. I badly ned to drink AVC.
EC: Hi Tuhin,
1. Try taking much less (1 teaspoon to start)
2. Make sure the apple cider vinegar is organic and contains "the mother".

I just recommended ACV and raw honey to a relative for relief of stomach pain; she has been living off of antacids. She experienced intense stomach pain AFTER drinking the mixture of water, honey and acv. I have never heard of this. Any thoughts? Could this be a sign of an ulcer?

Anytime I have a sore or upset stomach from food or such, ACV cures it right away in most cases. I take 1-2 TBSP followed by water.

I had been treated for helicobacter, with symptoms like:indigestion, painfully swollen upper abdomen. Apparently the bacteria was gone (according to GP) but I was still having painful tummy, swelling and indigestion. I started taking ACV initially for my tinnitus (don't see any changes still) but my tummy is much better, haven't had any indigestion or swelling. I give it to my husband too as he has some stomach problems and I'm hoping it will ease his snoring :-D

Hi! My daughter has had stomach pains/problems all her life. After CT scans, lots of x-rays, lots of meds (one with a possible side effect being death!, etc.) and no answers, I decided to try to find something natural to help her. I had given her acv before and didn't notice a difference and had given her baking soda without a difference but, after finding this site and putting them together, she has instant relief every time she takes it. I know she has acid reflux sometimes and this stops it right away. She still feels sick at some point every day (usually at night) and this makes her feel better. I can't say that it's been a complete cure for her since she still feels a little bad every day but, it has been such a wonderful blessing to be able to give her this to relieve her pain instead of having to tell her to try to fall asleep so she won't feel bad anymore!! As I type this I realize that even though she is a little sick every day, it's not anywhere near as bad as it was!! Oh, she is 9 now and we've been doing this for about 3 months. Thank you for posting this info. I mention this link to people with health questions often!

Also try b12 shots- it helps out alot with any type of problems of the stomach so does getting sun without using sunblock. use coconut oil instead organic one it protects you from getting skin cancer. Sunblock is bad for your health.

Every 2 days I would get these painful stomach aches that would last to the next day. I went to my doctor and he prescribed something, but it didn't help. So I tried the vinegar, and in a week I felt so much better like I felt before my stomach aches. So I want to say with tears, thank you so much. Bless this site.
