Top 10 benefits of Apple Cider Vinegar.

There is a long history of its use in medicine dating back to 400 B.C., when  Hippocrates used it to treat his patients. AVC is considered to be a potent remedy for illnesses and overall health.

Apple cider vinegar, known as cider vinegar or ACV, is a type of vinegar made from cider or apple and has a pale to medium amber color.

Unpasteurized or organic ACV contains mother of vinegar, which makes the vinegar look thicker and amber colored.
ACV is used in salads, marinades and vinaigrettes.

It is made by crushing apples and squeezing out the liquid.

Bacteria and Yeast are added to the liquid to start the alcoholic fermentation process, and the sugars are turned into alcohol. In a second fermentation process, the alcohol is converted into vinegar by acetic acid-forming bacteria. Acetic acid and malic acid give vinegar its sour taste.
Organic Apple Cider Vinegar (AVC) is rich in minerals.
