ACV, never heard of it before. I have started drinking apple cider though.

OK now I realize that's what ACV is,....cider.

Actually no. apple cider is simply apple juice that has not been filtered to remove the pulp. It is made from apple juice that has been extracted from the pulp of mashed apples. ACV is apple cider that is allowed to ferment. The sugar in apple cider allows it to be turned into alcohol. After this process, it is fermented again, where it is converted into apple cider vinegar.

Having said that, apple cider can reduce bad cholesterol. But, if you want to avoid diabetes or boils, gout, or treat nail fungus as well as lowering cholesterol, then ACV with "mother" should be considered. It can also be used to clean superficial wounds in a pinch and disinfect counter tops.

Yes I understand now and that is what I have.
I have been using the word "mother" while I have the gout but nothing to do with cider!

Have you tried apple cider vinegar? 3 tablespoons in 8 oz of water 4 times a day will balance the acid in your body and reduce inflammation. It is natural and will not harm you in any way....

There Shouldn't Be A Prob If I Skip The Water ??
White Vinegar Is More Dilute
So It Could Help Too ??

I think it's a good idea to dilute it rather than just drink it. It can be abrasive to teeth enamel.

They just don't want to pay. There is/was a class action lawsuit re Agent Orange

No problem, I no have "NO" teeth. I used to drink a lot of fresh squeezed lime aid that I made from scratch. I had good teeth and the dentist thought the acid in the limes destroyed the enamel in my teeth.

I have a feeling that most of my appointments at the VA are for Assistants to ask me questions while they check boxes in software on the computer and I don't actually see a Doctor. This is especially true with Orthopedics appointments. This way they can say well we saw him on this date....even though nothing was accomplished. Many of the Doctors I have delt with I can't understand.

I suspicion that many of these Doctors are hired through the H1B Visa program to save money. Instead of providing the patient with a well qualified Doctor they are simply supplied with a "warm body" who the Veteran may not be able to understand. This aint F***ing right!

White vinegar might help, but it might take longer because it has been watered down and filtered.
