Anyone use this? How do you use it, and for what? 

Perfection --- 10 years ago -

I use ACV in salad dressings, or as the dressing by itself. 

Butterbean --- 10 years ago -

Hundreds of uses. Do a search. Apple cider vinegar is a folk medicine legend. Maybe even a modern legend.

Yes but is it more fact than legend.

Lol!

I was just thinking mother was a misspelling of another word or autocorrect so trying to figure out what it could be. Lol

One can only hope, lol...

"Mother of vinegar is the slimy, gummy, jelly-like substance or layer of film that can form on the top of or in the liquid of apple cider vinegar. It can sometimes make the vinegar look cloudy. Sometimes, it's wispy and looks a lot like a little spider web.

The mother is actually a cellulose substance made up of various Acetobacter, a very acidic strain of bacteria. The Acetobacter combine with the oxygen in warm air to cause fermentation in apple cider, wine, or other alcoholic liquids to produce vinegar. It is the mother that gives the vinegar its characteristic sourness.

This substance can form naturally in store-bought vinegar if there is some non-fermented sugar or alcohol contained in the bottle. While not exactly appealing in appearance, it is completely harmless and the vinegar does not have to be thrown away because of it. Mother of vinegar can be easily filtered out using coffee filter, or, perhaps even better, the mother can simply be left in the vinegar and ignored."

Didn't Flaubert's, Madame Bovary, drink vinegar to lose weight?
College lit. was more than a few years ago.
Pretty good book though. It was turned into a movie? Does anyone know the actress' name? 

Tylers Journey --- 10 years ago -

I like mine in hot water with a little honey and coconut oil 

jefferinmax --- 10 years ago -

Really helpful if you've got arthritis. 

aragon --- 10 years ago -

I use it to help with digestion if I eat a rich meal. 

moltobella --- 10 years ago -

I drink it in the morning with pineapple juice (the real unsweetened kind) and honey. 

gumbeauxgirl --- 10 years ago -

ACV got rid of my severe seasonal allergies, though I now just megadose vitamin C.

You can checkout earth clinic to read how others have used ACV. 

Daisy03 --- 10 years ago -

Jeff, do you drink it for arthritis?

And I was wondering what the mother part meant too haha. I imagined a baby apple with it's mommy apple in one bottle lol

And we started using it about a week or two ago to conditioner our hair. We use baking soda to wash it. My hair is usually frizzy after trying so many different products and with those two, it has never been so manageable and natural. 

Klim --- 10 years ago -

I have used ACV for about a year now. It has many health benefits. I use it to give me that "full" feeling. (helps with weight loss) I don't like the taste of it in water so I just take 1 TBSP like a shot and chase it down with a glass of water. It instantly makes me feel full and I'm not tempted to eat too much. I do this before every meal. The mother are strands of proteins, enzymes and friendly bacteria that give the product a murky, cobweb-like appearance. The best ones to buy are the ones with the mother. I use Braggs.
