Many people around you might have suggested drinking apple cider vinegar (ACV) in the morning, ever wonder Why?
We have had this ingredient in our homes and have been using it for various purposes, but did you know how good apple cider vinegar is for our health. It is rich in antimicrobials and antioxidants that help in weight loss, reduction of cholesterol, lowers blood sugar levels, along with improving the symptoms of diabetes.
It is obtained by fermenting the sugar from apples, turning into acetic acid. It should never be consumed directly as it might burn the intestinal lining of your stomach. There are zero calories in vinegar, so one who is particular about the calorie intake can have it without any contemplation about putting on weight. It does offer some amount of potassium with antioxidants and gives you the feeling of fullness with consumption of fewer calories.
It is also used for cleaning purposes, be it a wound or a surface, as it can kill harmful bacteria. Also, serves as an amazing natural preservative keeping our food fresh. It is one of the healthiest ways of keeping the blood sugar levels in check, as it improves the inulin sensitivity with controlling the blood sugar responses post-meal.
Applying ACV on the face can help maintain the pH balance of the skin with improved skin health. There are many skin products based on ACV for the benefits it has on our health.
You may add some ACV to your salads or beverages to make the best out of it. One should start with small dosages like a tablespoon of ACV in a glass of water. Having this concoction on an empty stomach in the morning is said to be the best for the body, but keep in mind do not go overboard and check for yourself if it suits you or not.
Use wisely both for consumption or topical use in form of a cleaning agent, hair conditioner or skin enhancer.
ACV for a healthy lifestyle!
