Vinegar made from apples is known as Apple Cider Vinegar. It contains
malic acid (C4H6O6), which is natural organic
constituent of apples and is an element involved in the digestive processes.
Vinegar made by the process
of fermentation of wine contains an average of from 3% to 9% Acetic Acid, and
usually some Tartaric Acid in addition. Acetic Acid in Vinegar has been known
to be a contributing factor in causing hardening of the liver (cirrhosis of
the liver), duodenal and other intestinal ulcers.
Apple Cider Vinegar, on the
other hand, contains malic acid, a constructive acid which combines with
alkaline elements and minerals in the body to produce energy or to be stored
in the system as glycogen for future use. It has proved to be of immeasurable
value when used judiciously by humans and for animals.
Space does not permit the
publishing of the vast field of beneficial results obtained. For example,
how it helps in the coagulation of blood in establishing a normal menstrual
flow, and contributes to healthy blood vessels, veins and arteries, and in the
building of red blood.
One of the great virtues of
Apple Cider Vinegar is its extraordinary potassium content, an element
so necessary for building and storing body reserves and to help the system to
achieve harmony and calm. This potassium readily associates with some
of the most important elements in the body, such as calcium, sodium, iron,
magnesium, chlorine, silicon.
It is important, when
choosing Apple Cider Vinegar, to consider its source, in order to be sure that
it is made from whole apples and not the kind that is cheaply made just from
apple cores and peelings.
Used judiciously, Apple Cider
Vinegar is an indispensable item for the kitchen cupboard. Its antiseptic
qualities are almost beyond belief. Many victims of skin blemishes, even of
the contagious type, have been helped by the application of Apple Cider
Vinegar directly on the skin.
In Scotland it used to be,
and perhaps still is a common practice to shrink varicose and "bulging" veins
by the application of Apple Cider Vinegar on the skin to the whole length of
the veins, morning and night, for a month or so, and at the same time drinking
daily two or three glasses of water with two teaspoons of Apple Cider Vinegar
in each glass. And it worked!
Your LIFE is manifested in
the condition of your blood which is generated in the marrow of your bones,
activated through your spleen and circulated through your blood vessels. It is
a natural, systematic process that causes the blood stream to be completely
re-created every period of 28 days and unless the balance is maintained
between the creation of new blood cells while the old blood cells complete
their cycle, health cannot be maintained and one's efficiency is impaired.
In the maintenance of balance
in the body competence, no single class of nourishment has proved as effective
as the fresh-raw vegetable and fruit juices. Likewise, no single means to help
obtain the quick re-establishment of such balance has proved to be as
efficacious as pure Apple Cider Vinegar.
Excessive bleeding in menstrual cycles, bleeding hemorrhoids, nose
bleeding, cuts, etc., have been wonderfully helped by drinking two teaspoons of
Apple Cider Vinegar in a glass of water daily, and two or three times a day if necessary.
When there is a deficiency of
hydrochloric acid in the digestive system which results in the failure of the
system to properly digest proteins, giving rise to high blood pressure, Apple
Cider Vinegar has been used, one to three teaspoons in a glass of water during
the meal, with a consequent perceptible lowering of the blood pressure.
