The Beauty of Apple Cider Vinegar

‘An apple a day keeps the doctor away.’ Apples are beneficial to everybody’s health, from protecting the heart to providing a range of vital nutrients.

The famous saying could be upgraded to ‘a spoonful of Apple Cider Vinegar a day keeps the doctor away.’ Slightly longer but packed full of extra health benefits. Apple Cider Vinegar has an acquired taste, with many avoiding the liquid. However, this means they are missing out on the many benefits it offers.

The substance is a natural remedy that has been used for many years. Apple Cider Vinegar is not a replacement of a balanced diet and exercise; instead it is an aid to achieving a healthy and fit lifestyle. It’s made up of apple juice that is fermented not once, but twice; once to make the cider and twice to make the vinegar.

It’s always good to know what it is you are drinking, hence the nutrients it contains are; magnesium, iron, phosphorus, manganese, amino acids and antioxidants. With so many nutrients it’s no wonder there are so many health benefits!

1. It helps to aid in weight loss. [1] [5]
2. Helps reduce bloating, relieves heartburn, and improves overall digestion. [2]
3. It can help lower cholesterol due to natural antioxidants. [5] [6]
4. It may assist in lowering blood pressure and improving heart health by relaxing the blood vessels and controlling the hormone renin. [3]
5. It can help kill harmful bacteria, as vinegar aids in killing pathogens. [4]
6. It’s used to help reduce cravings by giving a feeling a fullness. [5]

To drink Apple Cider Vinegar, it’s recommended to stick with unfiltered and organic brands. Here at Dundarave, we have created our own range of Apple Cider Vinegar; it’s organically and naturally fermented in the Bushmills countryside.

Many do not care for the taste on its own, therefore other ways to take it are mixing in with water, adding to a recipe or creating a salad dressing!
