THE SECRETS OUT!! Some of my friends figured out that I've been enjoying the wonders of ACV with water for several weeks now. Initially, I had no particular goal other than general well-being. However, my skin looks amazing, and my whites in my eyes have brighten! Recently, I began including organic honey, and I'm in L.O.V.E. Now, I wonder if they'll discover this is also my hangover prevention secret as well. Lol!!

I started taking Acv tablets with honey 5 days ago and I can't believe it but acid reflux gone, allergy under control and I cut back on arthritis meds. I can't believe this. If I lose weight I will consider it a miracle drug. I'm 81 years old. Unbelievable.

I do use mixture of vinegar and honey whenever I got severe pains, mostly arthritis. Within three days the pain will be vanish. It also made me feel hungry so fast, I hope it aids digestion.

I have just been diagnosed with hyperurecemia, a condition that leads to gout, arthritis and kidney stones. The prescribed medication called Pro-gout would have to be taken for the rest of my life. I'm going to try all alternatives available first. The hardest part will be giving up beer. Lemon and apple cider vinegar tastes ok but is a poor substitute, haha.

Just wanted to make a comment on using raw organic honey and ASV mix. I posted earlier to heat up just a little bit of your water and then add your raw organic honey so that it will break down a little easier when mixing it. Don't add your ASV yet. An earlier post was right that if you add your ASV in the hot water it could kill the living organisms in the mother of the ASV. Once your honey is mixed well, then add your COLD water and then add your ASV. Long live the honey vinegar cocktail!

Just started a regimen of 2-3 times a day with 2 tsp Cider vinegar (Bragg) and 2 tsp clover honey... I will check back after a couple of weeks to give feedback.

Looking to ways to help with restless legs. Ran onto this article. Jennifer had already told me about the benefits of Bragg's Apple Cider Vinegar and honey. I actually have heard it through the years as well. I get the vinegar @ Good Nutrition. Publix may have it in their green section. It costs more than other vinegars but it is worth it. I keep it on hand to make cole slaw, etc. Jan and I learned about alkaline and acid in the body back in the 80's. This is a good reminder.

I am just starting out with ACV and honey at first I thought yuck but after only three times of drinking this I have come to like it. I have 1 tbs honey and 1 tbs ACV in hot water, it's actually nice I have it three times a day when at home, otherwise twice a day. Hoping it will give me some energy and take the stiffness of osteoarthritus away. WIll let you know only on day three so far.

Ruth: You may want to note that warm water is fine (not more than 50 degree C.) but boiling hot water should be avoided as it will kill the living enzymes in the mixture. Personally I don't quite like the taste of cider vinegar as well but I feel having it chilled makes a big difference to the taste. I thought you may also want to give it a try. In the morning, I do a concentrate of cider vinegar and honey for the entire day, mix and dissolve the honey with some warm water and then add cold water to make a big jug and refrigerate.

I was suffering from asthma and copd for the past 4 yrs. Made me stay awake at night, the first night I tried honey and vinegar. I slept like a log. Thanks for the information. My whole body feel diffrent in one mth. I am 73 yrs old and never feel so good in a long time.

I'm a 54 yr. male, 5'9", 188 lbs diagnosed with high blood pressure about 6 yrs. ago and I have an announcement. My Hypertension is cured! Here's how I did it. Every morning on an empty stomach I put two tsp. raw organic honey and 2 tsp. unpasteurized apple cider vinegar (with the mother) in an 8 oz. glass of water. I do this even before coffee. Now the trick is to heat up a portion of the water (nuke it for about 30 seconds) so the honey can dissolve faster. Some organic honeys are like paste and thicker than others so it's very difficult to stir that in cold water. Once you stir and break the honey down in the hot water, then add your ASV and pour the rest of your cold water in it. You can also put in a spurt of lemon juice to give it a zing! Now within just two weeks my bp had dropped a lot! I was shocked! So I started halving my dosage of bp meds and monitoring my bp daily. Within a month I am now totally off the meds and feel great! In conjunction with this miracle elixir I do workout at the gym and try to eat right, so I truly believe you have to make other efforts, at least trying to exercise or walk.

Honey and especially pollen has taken away much of the pain I have in my legs. For years I would spend 15 out of 30 days in bed due to leg pain and just plain tired. Since becoming a bee keeper with 300 plus hives I know my honey is pure along with the pollen.( Periodic stings also help me have a normal life). Thank you LORD!

I have been familiar with Vinegar and honey for quite sometime. My dad sent me a book on all cures from the V and S mixture. I was having a problem with my hips when I sat for long periods in a car. Getting out of the car for a restroom break was painful to walk. Also, I had a rotator cup problem. Well I started the V and S treatment and after about 5 or 6 weeks I noticed the pain was gone. I told my friends about this and they started the treatment, but quit after 3 weeks, so I can't speak for them. I still use the mixture, but not as regular, although I should because whether it really makes me feel better or not, at least I think it does and that is what matters. That is a short story on my success with the vinegar and honey mixture.

It has STOPPED MY HOT FLASHES! My cousin has also had the same effect - no more hot flashes. 2 teaspoons of vinegar and 2 of honey, 3 times a day. I am just amazed! Read Dr. Jarvis' 2 books on it - loaded with what benefits it has. Wonderful what that doctor did with his life. Studied the benefits of apple cider vinegar for many many years. Absolutely amazing the benefits to our bodies - the vinegar and honey!

I knew about apple cider when I went back to Indonesia in 2010. I got prediabetes, my doctor did not give me diabetes medicine, I had apple cider vinegar bragg. When I compared with my coworker who took medication for diabetes, every morning I tested my blood sugar, I got 80-90 when fasting, and my friend who took diabetes medicine still had 140-160 when fasting.

My gout flares up began in 1980 while I was stationed in Honolulu, Hawaii. I had gone through blood test to x rays by US Navy medicine. Many of these flare ups occurred approximately a dozen times a year. The flare up again occurred and one US Navy Filipino Doctor told me I have a rich man disease. He explained to me that only rich people has this because only rich people can afford to buy rich food in Philippines. He prescribed me Allopurinol. He added that when it healed, I am to eat pork rinds drink beer. I will then immediately report to him soonest. I followed his advised then he had me realized that these food I have to avoid. He told to continue the medication and added more food to avoid. Many years passed, sometimes, I craved these foods that it will flare up more often. I then realized today that fish and mushrooms are one or many that triggers which now I have a flare up. I chance upon another Filipino doctor on the way home to Philippines in 1987 who advised me to drink apple cider vinegar with pure honey. I did not believe him at the time. Maybe after three years the flare ups continued. I then heed this Doctor's advised. For many years, maybe since 1999 it did work until the 21st of this month that it flared again because I did not know fish triggered it again. I ate just little bit of spinach and chicken for lunch yesterday. My left toe flared up this morning. I am glad I have the medication a German doctor prescribed since the 21st. I will resume to drink the apple cider vinegar and pure honey soon after I finished this medication and see the German Doctor on Tuesday next week. Yes, this concoction worked for me until I ate lots of fish and mushrooms which I did not know at that time until I googled it few minutes ago.

I'm 54 and had been told how cider vinegar and a teaspoon of honey in the same amount of cider vinegar as you would put milk in a cup of tea mixed up in hot water, daily would heal with aches and pains in my knees. A consultant in a hospital completely supported this idea. It's cheap, it's drug free and it works.

I was almost getting into a surgery scenario for my 11MM kidney stone that was causing intense excruciating pain. I had practically tried all home and medicinal remedies for dissolving and removing the kidney stone but it all failed.

Just 2 days before my surgery (invasive), I came across apple cider vinegar and its marvels on kidney stones.

Immediately I went to my local health store and luckily found one that contained the "mother" (thats a way of identifying an organic acv.

I diluted two tablespoons in a warm glass of water and had 6 times a day and as much as I could tolerate the taste of acv.

After two days of taking acv, I went for a blood test in preparation for the surgery and also an iodine MRI. To my suprise, the kidney stone was gone. The 11MM stone that had troubled me for 2 months was now gone!

The doctors could not believe as to what could have happened! In the urine test, the pathologist, mentioned that there were tiny crystals (dissolved) found. Such tiny were the crystals that I didn't even realise that for two continuous days I was dissolving the stone and passing them out!

Thanks to ACV! It's a miracle cure!

I try to take apple cider vinegar and honey mixed with olive oil and lemon when I was diagnosed with fibroid. After 3 weeks I felt much better and my rheumatoid arthritis disappeared and my bowel was back to normal. I try cinnamon and honey in the morning instead of coffee. Trying the normal way of all herbal medicine is good to our health. The best way is exercise and eat well. Thanks for the info all I read. God bless!

I suffered from very debilitating rheumatoid arthritis, but at the end of 2011 I started using this honey and cider vinegar remedy. I have been meticulous in taking it on a daily basis, and now my disease levels have dropped, I manage a 2 mile walk daily, no longer need to wear the ankle and knee supports that were previously mandatory for me to get around,and am feeling much better. I will continue to take this remedy for the rest of my life, - it is really a no brainer, with results such as I have experienced.

I have two experiences to share with everyone. I must that I am truly happy I have tried apple cider and honey in the morning before my breakfast. I suffer from acid reflux, very painful, I have sleepless night pain on my chest like you are getting an heart attack. Since using this effective remedy I sleep like a baby I also suffer with muscle spasm, this has helped me too. This is my testimony, I hope it will help all of you too.

I've been using apple cider vinegar organic Bragg since 1996, mixed with two tablespoon of pure honey and water and sip all day long on two large glasses a day.

It cured 99% of my fibromyalgia and aches and pain due to fibromyalgia and arthritis, I'm 62, active, eat nothing but natural diet, once a month 4 or less ounces of meat or chicken, all kind of legumes, fresh fruits and vegetables, absolutely 100% no additives or preservatives or ready meals, or processed or canned. If I don't cook it, I'm not eating it, my whole family is the same. No I'm not crazy or Amish but I eat very very healthy.

Try this ACV with honey and eliminate all garbage food and diet drinks and diet sugar and I promise you a new life.

By the way, I bake my own bread with whole wheat flour no additives or enrichments, I make my cheese and yogurt, and yes I'm employed and a working woman. Noone does anything for me, my adult children eat exactly like me, all good looking, healthy and energetic.

I use this vinegar on my salads too, with olive oil.

I have no problem with the taste, my health is great.

God bless.

I bought some ACV, honey and lemon juice along with Dr. Lee's Green Tea from Wally World to see which elixer worked best for my edema. Made one drink with the ACV, honey and lemon only to barf it up shortly later. I hadn't had that experience for years so didn't care to try that mix again. I have been getting good results with the tea/honey and lemon combined and drunk hot. I've been steadily losing the retained water plus whatever foul stuff it contained because my urine started out being darker at first and has become lighter as the water deminishes. One plus of using Dr. Lee's Green Tea is that I can save the bags and reuse those several times before they stop producing a tea with flavor and color. I was using the bags twice out of habit then saving those to toss onto my compost pile. Ran out one day so threw several into a glass coffee pot and brewed up a few cups. It came out just fine so used them a few more times with the same results! Figure a box of 100 bags that cost $5 will provide 500 cups of decent tea at one cent each. Now I have an extra $20 for two bottles of honey and two of lemon juice to go with it. I gave the ACV to my neighbor who has an iron stomach and drinks that mess all the time.

Bill Wilson, United States

Bragg ACV gave me terrible, terrible indigestion. I only used 1 teaspoon mixed well with a tall, 8 fl oz glass of applejuice and now have the worst indigestion I have ever experienced. If you are prone to digestive problems, such as myself, I urge you to STAY AWAY from this stuff. Apple Cider Vinegar and other (herbal) supplements are not regulated by the FDA, so potential side effects are not going to be properly disclosed when these types of products are advertised. Caution must be taken. ACV may work for some people, but it did not for me.

I have tried the Organic Apple Cider vinegar and honey for almost 7 days, taking it at bedtime and each morning I have gotten up with a headache. Has anyone else had that problem?

Eleanor Johnson, United States
7 Feb 2013

Ruth: Some people believe the headaches experienced by some people when they first start taking cider vinegar is a sign of some detoxification process. I would suggest that you forget about this concoction if the discomfort intensifies or continues to persist after one more week.

I used apple vinegar for weight loss.

I'm sitting here sniffing, all stuffed up (congested) with what feels like a stye starting on my right lower eyelid. I'm a mess. Then I remembered ACV and honey.

I used to drink a cup of ACV and honey every morning. I didn't get colds, it seems that it was easier to lose weight.

So I'm sitting hear sipping on a cup of the ACV elixir.

I believe I will go back to sipping on the ACV and honey every morning. Even tho' the honey is NOT on a low carb diet, it may be that I'll actually do better with these healthy carbs. We'll see.

Cheryl, United States

This is one of the easiest ways to control your bodies ailments. I usually put 1 tbs. honey in a glass and add hot water just over the spoon height (not handle, just spoon). This helps the honey melt when you stir it. After it dissolves I then fill the rest of the glass with cold water and then add 1 tbs. organic apple cider and stir. I drink it down as the mixure is still spinning. I work nights and this seems to help with the "zombies" that you feel from being up all night.

Most of the grocery stores now days have an organic section in them. That's where I get my honey and vinager. Pleasant drinking everyone.

Joseph Colarusso, United States

Hello, my name is Yolanda and I use the Braggs apple cider vinegar with raw honey as a diet supplement. I used it a few years ago for the purpose of detoxing my system and weight loss. I tell you it worked. Not only did I lose weight but I felt lighter, energized and just over-all rejuvinated. Most people don't believe these natural remedies work. But I am here to testify to the fact that they absolutely do.

Yolanda, United States
16 Dec 2012

I tried "Bragg's Apple Cider with the Mother" and an organic raw honey, not the pasteurized one, oh , it really works. I often have colds and cough before, especially if I stay late at night, but when I tried this combination - Bragg's ACV with the mother and raw honey (not pasteurized), wow! it really works! I was able to fight colds and cough (*sometimes cayenne)... Try it!

Sally, The Philippines
15 Dec 2012

I decided to try ACV and honey to see if it could help alkaline my body. I had kidney infection symptoms, IE that sick twisting feeling in your back. 2 days it was gone. But I am getting tested to make sure. I had hoped it would help with joint pain and alleviate gerd. I had to cut back my medication for gerd when I lost my insurance. It was worth a try.

I don't know if it was my mind or what but I felt immediately...different. I also got a cold sore within a half hour. But putting ACV on it seems to have taken the pain away and it hasn't gotten so bad.

Anyway, this is day 5. Amazingly, I noticed, I felt thinner. So after getting on the scale, 6lbs lighter. And I did not have the usual desire to pig out because I lost weight. It is easier to eat when I'm hungry and not just eat and it has lowered my desire for sugar. Yes sugar! I have ate so much less. I suffered for years unable to lose weight its incredible. I'm staying on it. I have been off pain pills for 3 days. And have noticed if I belch it isn't acidic. But still take my medication just in case for a while yet.

I also have to say that I recently had my thyroid medication changed and it has put me down in the range I feel best at. But that has been two months with no weight loss. But I want to be accurate and state all facts. I couldnt stand the taste on day 3 and had to take it in Chai tea. But got it down and today just put it in water again and it was fine. Im hoping I do acquire a taste for it. I am using 2 TBS ACV and 1 TBS honey in a full glass of warm water once a day. I drink it down slowly and dont sip it all day.

I am so hopeful now for my weight. I cant believe the added affect. I hope Im not too eager too soon. But it was worth a try after all the years of pain and fatness I feel it was a good try.

I just recently had a stroke. My blood pressure would jump up high then down low in minutes. My blood sugar did the same. I was exhausted. I hate to lie down, so when I spotted an article on vinegar. I had a glass of vinegar water brought to me. I immediately felt refreshed and continued working. My blood pressure and blood sugar have remained fine, by drinking 3 glasses a day of the unfiltered vinegar and water. I am so excited. Try it. It seems to help every thing.

It really helps sooth itching effect in every part of the body and head. Dilute in water and use cotton wool soaked with it and wipe the itchy area. It also clears body odour if u clean your armpits with it. If added to rinsing water while washing, it keeps your clothes cleaner and odour free.

I suffered for several years with GERD (acid reflux) and gastritis, taking daily omeprazole and eventually sleeping on a recliner. I have been on apple cider vinegar/honey for 2 months and I am completely recovered! The recipe is as follows:
2 tbsp Braggs
2 tsp honey
1/4 tsp baking soda
1 cup water
I mix up 4 recipes at a time (It tastes better fresh). Take 4 to 6 oz on an empty stomach twice daily. First thing in the morning and then before dinner. Don't forget to stir it up; the honey sinks to the bottom. RJP

I have beeen drinking one or 2 glasses of honey and Braggs vinegar with raw unfiltered honey for over a yr and didn't realize that its probably what has kept my weight steady.. It's a wow drink for me. I just love the tarty sweet taste and would drink a quart a day if I could lol. I think along with VitD3 5000 units a day and the drink has kept me from being sick for more than a yr 1/2.

I use apple cider vinegar and honey, I drink it in a mug of hot water a tablespoon of each, 3 times daily. It takes my spondylitis pain away after a day. It's amazing. If I hadn't tried it for myself I wouldn't believe it was true.

Ruth: Garry, replace refined processed sugars in your diet as much as possible with a more superior, natural form of sugar - honey, and avoid high fructose corn syrup and all artificial sweeteners.

I take a mixture of Apple Cidar Vinegar, Raw Honey, Ginger, Garlic, Cinnamon, and Hemp seed. I mix a months worth in a blender and take two teaspoons, twice a day. Taste great!!!!!

Hi. I'm trying apple vinegar cider for the first time. I have a problem with acid reflux problem which I'm worried would lead to ulcers. A friend advised me to try apple cider vinegar with honey. I have started today, please advice the amount of water to mix with 1 table spoonful.

Ruth: One glass of water for 1 tbs of cider vinegar will do.

Had I think bacterial vaginosis, have been suffering for a year and a half with heavy odor, heavy discharge very embarrasing and uncomfortable. Been drinking acv and honey for 3 days...the symptoms are COMPLETELY gone. Everything is back to normal. Funny thing is I started to drink it for other reasons.

Just restarted taking 1TBSP. of Bragg's Organic Apple Cider Vinegar mixed with some raw honey. Looking forward to seeing what happens and what the benefits will be. I do tend to run high in BP and blood glucose. Also would love to lose 20 lbs. Just been lazy about it all...eating right and exercising. Will get my act together sooner or later...:)

I've been taking "ACV" for two months and my blood pressue has lowered, I also lost about 27lbs. I started eating healthy and I have avoided breads and sodas. I take one tablespoon of raw honey before I go to bed to boost my metabolism at night. I have an office job and I hardly excercise.

I am confused about how often to take Apple Cider Vinegar. For several weeks I've been taking it daily for Gallbladder pain. Now I have read of the dangers of taking it daily T http://soulart.hubpages.com/hub/Can-Apple-Cidar-Vinegar-Help-Chronic-Pain

The website says "Now-as far as using it as a Alkaline Acid Balancer, Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV), does the job. However, it shouldn't be used on a daily basis. Here's why - Baking soda can also help alkaline the body, but most people would not attribute baking soda with acids in the stomach. So, using ACV as a chronic pain reducer, weight loss supplement, and alkaliner (detox), depends upon the individual. Our bodies are acid rich soils that are sometime over indulged by the foods we eat. Any food. A person in pain, should they consider a new food regimen, could use ACV as a detox, generally 1 - 3 times a week at first and then on a monthly basis."

So this website recommends taking ACV only once a month. This is quite different from taking it twice a day. Is AVC actually harmful when taken on a daily basis?? I don't know. Does anyone have additional information on this topic. Would appreciate additional info.

Ruth: When it comes to natural cures and folk remedies including honey and cider vinegar, there usually isn't any hard and fast rule regarding its dosage because our individual's responsiveness to the food also plays a major part. I think taking it twice a day is fine, but the question is "for how long?" Most people would recommend taking it regularly based on their experience but so far nobody has actually suggested taking it daily, perpetually (there could be people with such experience, but I'm not sure). Personally I like to take it daily for 1 to 2 weeks (for cleansing purpose) and would usually stop for weeks before I resume again. Some people take it to overcome certain health issues and would stop it once the relief is experienced. Different people respond to the mixture (weight loss, lower cholesterol, etc) differently, some in a matter of days, some in weeks, and some in months. For those who feel that they are not benefiting from it after trying for some time, or have experienced nasty side effects (stomach ache, diarrhea) after consuming just a glass of it, I would say just stop it (why make yourself feel sick). Your own body will tell you whether you are benefiting from it and for how long you should continue using it.

Apple cider vinegar and raw honey is great!

I suffer from a severe hiatal hernia. Prescription medications were helping somewhat, however I read about drinking the organic apple cider vinegar with honey and decided to try it. I was amazed at how quickly I found relief. I have several of my family and friend using it now since it has so many beneficial values. I mix a pint container and keep it in my refrigerator. It is the first think i drink in the morning and the last thing I have before going to bed. It really works..

I am on a high blood pressure medication as my pressure is moderately high, but not drastic. Last week, after starting back to school, my BP raced higher than normal so my doc wanted to put me on a beta blocker. This scared the ba-jeee-zeez out of me when I researched that beta blockers can cause all sort of side effects, so I found this natural remedy that could help HBP. I have been on it for four days..my bp is down to 124/74! No beta blocker for me...I won't take it. I will continue with v and h. I have RA as well and I noticed within the third day that my joints feel less swollen, my mornings are more painfree. But, the BP results...wow....I am looking now for how long I can continue on the v and h. Looks like it could be a good thing for a long time, but are there negative effects of drinking the elixer for too long a time? Thanks for any assistance with that question.

Sandra Welly, United States

Ruth: Hi Sandra. From the many postings received, it seems that a long-term daily routine of taking small amount of cider vinegar and honey poses no health risk and in fact many have found great benefits in doing that. If you are concern about having any side effects, perhaps you may want to do it on an alternate month basis.

I would love to more about vinegar and honey.

I have been drinking this "amazing potion" as I call it, for about a year and a half. I actually enjoy it. I warm 6 oz. of water (30 secs.in microwave) and add 1 tablespoon of Braggs acv and about 1/2 tablespoon or more of unprocessed honey. I drink it as you would a cup of tea or coffee. The medication I was given did nothing for my acid reflux. So I stopped taking it and read about the health benefits of Braggs acv and tried it. It is amazing! I can enjoy all kinds of food again. I feel great and plan to continue drinking the "amazing potion"! I would strongly encourage others to give it a try. Even if you are not suffering from acid reflux. It can only help you feel even better!

After using Acv with honey I feel sore throat and hard to breathe if any body know about that please let me know because I don't want to stop because I feel myself full of energy.

Ruth: Apple cider vinegar seldom causes side effects, but there have been reports that it could cause discomfort in some rare cases, and these include nausea, headaches, and constipation. However many of these symptoms are signs that the body is detoxing and being cleansed and they usually disappear in one or two weeks. If those reactions are severe and persisting, then stop consuming it.

After using acv for two weeks my complexion is clearer.

Sylvia Moguel, United States

My mother gave us honey and ACV by the spoonful during cold and allergy season. We rarely got sick. With 7 kids doctors were out of the question and you certainly don't want the whole bunch at home at the same time sick.

I have calmed down my latest attack of rheumatoid arthritis to the point where I don't need any medication for pain at all in just 10 days. It is the best and safest method you could ask for. I 'll continue for at least a year and hopefully the inflammation will be gone with an alkaline diet.

In May of 2012 I had a gastric by-pass, I developed gastric and ulcers problems. The medication is so expensive and it does not eliminate the problem but covers it up. I became tired of the runaround at the doctors office, decided to investigate a natural remedy over the internet. I found out that apple cidar vinegar, and raw honey is used for gastric troubles, my pain left immediately.

Over the last 2 months I have consistently taken one tablespoon of honey and one table spoon of dates vinegar/apple cider vinegar on an empty stomach in the morning and before going to bed. The outcome - my allergy issues have reduced tremendously and the most delightful thing is that fact that I have also shed some weight.

When I first heard about all the wonderful benefits of this combination, I tried it. It wasn't "horrible" to drink. Not like the old "Formula 44 D". But it was a bit tart. After 3 days the tartness went away and I began to fee much more energetic and overall healthy.

I prepared this remedy to my mum of 68 yrs old cos she is hypertensive. Within one month she is FANTASTIC in health. The problem is Apple cider is not readily available in Accra, Ghana, West Africa. As soon as it comes to the supermarket it it cleared within hours cos people are very much aware of its fantastic miracle. I'm 45yrs and I take it daily and I feel great in health. Thanks.

So bought BRAGG ACV and with in 1 week my gout got so much better. Doesn't cure but controls gout and other benefits kicked in amazing too many to list. Just try it I can't get anyone to try but they notice how strong I am at 67. Just try it you'll never stop. It's like a new religion. Physical REBIRTH. Hallalua bro amen.

I work in health care and see what suffering GERD can do, so when I got GERD I wanted to treat it with a natural remedy. Knowing medication used to treat GERD was a short term fix and doesn't address the cause. I found honey and apple cider vinegar ( braggs is the best). I found it works awesome.

Short and sweet. On March 9, 2012 I weighed 281lbs and on March 31, 2012 I weighed 270lbs. Have not done anything different besides increased my water intake and drink a mixture of 1tbs honey and 2 tabs ACV with about 4 to 6 oz of bottle water 3 to 4 times a day. I don't know if it will help me reach my goal but I'm going to stay with it for a while.

I suffer from IBS, diverticulosis, and had stomach ulcers. After days of stomach pain with either diahrrea or constipation and three benzos doctors put me on, I'm going on 2 glasses a day, a TBS of both in warm water. I've used Bragg ACV before and honey, but haven't combined them. It has to help, both are pure and organic and I'm sick of the meds and the COST!
