A friend told me about ACV for the reduction of blood pressure... and IT REALLY WORKED! For two weeks I've had extremely high BP, after trying 2 400mg tablets yesterday, my BP dropped from 180/131 to 116/82! IT'S A MIRACLE!

I have had chronic lower back pain for years and after taking AVC twice daily for a month I have noticed a drastic difference. I was restricted in activities and now I can do just about everything. While at the doctor's I also found out that my blood pressure dropped from 124/80 to 116/68. In January, 2006 I was diagnosed with acid reflux, which resulted with pills every day. Since taking the AVC I haven't had to take any medication for the acid reflux. I believe it has also helped with my allergies. This really is a miracle cure.

I just read your web page on how ACV lowers blood pressure so I gave it a try and in 10 minutes it dropped from 146 over 91 pulse 82 at 10.05pm down to 138 over 80 pulse 83 at 10.15pm.

I took Garlic, ACV, all known foods against HBP [celery, bananas, etc.]. So discouraged b/c of high "situational" BP, dropped from trucking school/now, it has dropped from 169/110 to 159/98 in two days. I knew better b/c i never have it. Not only that, being an af-am female, they were quick to offer some medication, which i just as quickly rejected! Get well, stay well, everybody.

I was just diagnosed with HBP, and was put on medication (2). The ACV lowered my BP, and the thing that really worked all the time is Prayer. God is a healer, our bodies were not designed to go through sickness, by his stripes we will be healed.

My last physical was in March, my blood pressure was 139/90. After finding this website. I thought I would give ACV a try. I stopped taking my HBP meds about a month and a half ago and have strictly been on ACV and garlic. I take 2tbls of ACV with a little spring water and I take 2 caps of garlic, which I buy loose and cap myself. I went to the nurse's office this morning and had my blood pressure checked it was 124/77. I was amazed to say the least. I try to watch what I eat, but I know It was the ACV and garlic because I had already modified my eating habits when my blood pressure was higher. I send this website to everyone I can think of. I have been preaching the wonders of ACV!!!

Apple Cider Vinegar is a fast and reliable way of lowering high blood pressure. I had a reading of 166/102 about 30 minutes ago, now it's at 143/86 after 3 or 4 tablespoons of ACV with water. Try it, it works.

I came across this site looking for natural results in lowering my husband's blood pressure which was 166 over 90 and had 1/3 of his lung removed due to finding lung cancer in stage 1 after we had a vehicle accident. Since we both are American Indians, I wanted something natural so I got it and tried it on him, myself and our 24 year old daughter who has asthma. We started this past Sunday and the next day I didn't feel bloated like usual so I told all at work and they just looked at me so I printed this out. Tuesday morning I had energy like never before so with the paper and they saw me and read this site they all went to get the ACV and about 20 customers were going. My husband's blood pressure is as of 1/31/06 150 over 80 and he claims that he feels like "jumping rope" so with fresh vege and lean meats and very low sodium in his diet with this is working and since Sunday i have lost 5 lbs and my hair is no longer falling out (waist length). It's so nice to comb my long hair and it isn't falling out anymore or see my hair on everything.Thank you all so much. Donna -- Geyatahi Cherokee Indian NC

I have tried adding 1 tablespoon chased with water in the morning after breakfast and again in evening after meal to test if any difference in my high blood pressure. In less than one week, I noticed I was very dizzy and feeling rather weak. I took my blood pressure and it was 102/66... VERY LOW after years of 130s/90's WITH medication daily. I have stopped taking my blood pressure medication and checking my pressure 3 times daily to find it's consistently now 120's/70's. I am completely amazed. I'd been taking supplements (fish oil, garlic, E, flax) along with my medication for a long time and have kept that up. The only thing I can attribute this major change is the addition of apple cider vinegar!

i use a shot 1oz. shot glass. with a little water (chaser) I started using a shot of Vinegar-a vitaminC tab - & garlic gel cap for elevated blood pressure & to lower cholesterol. bp meds had bad side effects. An older gentleman (70ish) that lives in my town told his secret (when asked) to looking great after looking not so great a few months earlier. This was what he had been doing for himself. He was on bp & cholesterol meds that were draining the life out of him. So he went the other route and looks great & more importantly feels. great. So I'm following his advice and also i'm 1 week smoke free.
